convertFeatureDataset

public void convertFeatureDataset(IFeatureDatasetName inputFDatasetName,
                                  IFeatureDatasetName outputFDatasetName,

                                  java.lang.String configKey,
                                  int flushInterval,
                                  int parentHWND)
                           throws java.io.IOException,
                                  AutomationException

Converts a featureDataset to Personal Geodatabase/Geodatabase featuredataset.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Description

ConvertFeatureDataset automates the conversion of feature datasets. Converts only the simple feature classes contained in the source feature dataset. Complex feature classes (annotation, networks) and relationship classes are not converted. The source feature dataset name is appended to the beginning of each of the feature class names in the target feature dataset. For example a target feature dataset, “USA2”, with a source dataset named, “USA”, would have “USA_” appended onto each of its feature class names. The feature class “roads” would be “USA_roads” in the target feature dataset. As a result of this behavior, a feature dataset can only be converted into a given target geodatabase one time without renaming (programmatically) the target feature classes.

Parameters:

inputFDatasetName - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeatureDatasetName (in)

outputFDatasetName - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeatureDatasetName (in)

outputGeometryDef - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IGeometryDef (in)

configKey - The configKey (in)

flushInterval - The flushInterval (in)

parentHWND - The parentHWND (A COM typedef) (in)

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

convertFeatureClass

public IEnumInvalidObject convertFeatureClass(IFeatureClassName inputDatasetName,
                                              IQueryFilter inputQueryFilter,
                                              IFeatureDatasetName outputFDatasetName,
                                              IFeatureClassName outputFClassName,

                                              AutomationException

Converts a featureClass to a Personal Geodatabase/Geodatabase featureClass.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Description

ConvertFeatureClass automates the conversion of feature class data. This method supports the conversion of simple feature classes (point, line, polygon). Conversion of complex feature classes (geometric network feature classes, SDE 3.x annotation, Geodatabase annotation, coverage annotation) is not supported. Subtypes and domains are not maintained by ConvertFeatureClass.

To create a featureclass with a subset of the columns from the source data use IQueryFilter::SubFields. Make sure to includes the geometry column. The OID column will be ignored. The OutputFields object should include all of the fields.

Parameters:

inputDatasetName - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeatureClassName (in)

inputQueryFilter - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IQueryFilter (in)

outputFDatasetName - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeatureDatasetName (in)

outputFClassName - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeatureClassName (in)

outputGeometryDef - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IGeometryDef (in)

outputFields - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFields (in)

configKey - The configKey (in)

flushInterval - The flushInterval (in)

parentHWND - The parentHWND (A COM typedef) (in)

Returns:

A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IEnumInvalidObject

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.
