Remarks

The ImportData method imports data into the geodatabase referenced by the GeoDataServer. The pData parameter takes a GDSData object which defines the data to import. The fmt parameter specifies the format of the data.

The data to import may be a XML workspace document or a FileGDB transport file generated from the IGeoDataServer::CreateReplica command. The process of importing these files completes the replica creation process and add a new child replica to the geodatabase.

The data may also be from a personal geodatabase, file geodatabase or an XML workspace document generated outside the context of replication. The IGeoDataServer::ExtractData method, for example, can also be used to generate these files. In these cases, the data is simply copied to the geodatabase.
