Interface INetworkSource

All Superinterfaces:
java.io.Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
EdgeFeatureSource, INetworkSourceProxy, JunctionFeatureSource, NetworkSource, SDCNetworkSource, SystemJunctionSource, TurnFeatureSource

public interface INetworkSource
extends java.io.Serializable

Provides access to members that specify the properties of a source in a network dataset.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Remarks

The INetworkSource interface is used to access the properties of the network source, such as its name and source type.

To access the NetworkSource object for an existing network dataset source, use the Source, SourceByID, or SourceByName methods on the INetworkDataset interface.

The INetworkSource interface is also used to define a new network source.  To create a new network source, cocreate the appropriate NetworkSource object, specify its properties, and pass the object to the INetworkBuild::AddSource method on the network dataset.

Method Detail

getID

public int getID()
          throws java.io.IOException,
                 AutomationException
Unique identifier of this network source.

Remarks

Each source in a Network Dataset is identified by a unique value, the ID property.  The ID property can be used to get a reference to the corresponding network source through the INetworkDataset::SourceByID property.  This ID is different than the ID value returned by the IObjectClass::ObjectClassID property.

As with ObjectID values, SourceID values are never reused.  They are not guaranteed to be sequential, but are guaranteed to be in increasing order based on when the source was added to the network.  Unless the source is added or deleted from the DataElement, the SourceID values will remain constant after the INetworkDataset::UpdateSchema method is called.

Returns:
The iD
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

Returns:
A com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.esriNetworkElementType constant
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setElementType

public void setElementType(int elementType)

elementType - A com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.esriNetworkElementType constant (in)
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()
                         throws java.io.IOException,
                                AutomationException
Name of the class associated with this network source.

Returns:
The sourceName
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String sourceName)
             throws java.io.IOException,
                    AutomationException
Name of the class associated with this network source.

Parameters:
sourceName - The sourceName (in)
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getProperties

public IPropertySet getProperties()
                           throws java.io.IOException,
                                  AutomationException
Property set of this network source.

Returns:
A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.system.IPropertySet
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setProperties

public void setProperties(IPropertySet sourceProperties)
                   throws java.io.IOException,
                          AutomationException

isUsesGeometryInConnectivity

public boolean isUsesGeometryInConnectivity()
                                     throws java.io.IOException,
                                            AutomationException
Indicates if the source object's geometry is used in determining network connectivity.

Remarks

The UsesGeometryInConnectivity property indicates whether the geometries of the features in a NetworkSource  are used in determining how its network elements are connected to each other.

For example, the geometries of the features in an EdgeFeatureSource and JunctionFeatureSource are used to determine how the generated edge and junction elements connect to each other.  The UsesGeometryInConnectivity property for these sources is True.

In contrast, the geometries of the features in a TurnFeatureSource are not used in deteriming how the turn elements are associated with the edges and junctions of the network -- the fields of the TurnFeatureSource feature class determine this.  The UsesGeometryInConnectivity property for the TurnFeatureSource is False.

Returns:
The usesGeometry
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getSourceType

public int getSourceType()
                  throws java.io.IOException,
                         AutomationException
Type of network source.

Returns:
A com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.esriNetworkSourceType constant
Throws:
java.io.IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

public INetworkSourceDirections getNetworkSourceDirections()
                                                    throws java.io.IOException,
