GPTool

public class AddRuleToTopology

extends AbstractGPTool

Adds a new rule to a topology. There are many topology rules that you can add to your topology. The rules you choose depend on the spatial relationships that are most important to maintain for the feature classes that participate in the topology. Some topology rules govern the relationships of features within a given feature class, while others govern the relationships between features in two different feature classes. Topology rules can also be defined between subtypes of features in one or another feature class. Topology rules are organized based on the geometry type of the origin feature class (polygon, line, or point). The origin feature class is the first feature class specified when adding the rule. The Add Rule To Topology tool is contained in the Data Management Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• To add a rule to a topology, the input topology cannot be registered as versioned.
• You can type the name of the subtype value to which you want a topology rule to be applied. If you are using the command line and the subtype name consists of more than one word, use single quotes to contain the subtype name.
