All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

IWorkspaceConfigurationProxy, Sde4Workspace, VersionedWorkspace, Workspace

public interface IWorkspaceConfiguration
extends Serializable

Provides access to configuration keywords.

Remarks

IWorkspaceConfiguration is an optional interface that allows you to get an enumeration of the configuration keywords for an ArcSDE or File geodatabase workspace. You can determine if the workspace supports the reporting of configuration keywords by using the IWorkspaceProperties interface. Configuration keywords are used in an ArcSDE or File geodatabase to specify storage parameters during the creation of new datasets, such as tables, feature classes and geometric networks. The following methods use configuration keywords when they create data in an ArcSDE or File geodatabase workspace:

IFeatureWorkspace::CreateFeatureClass
IFeatureWorkspace::CreateTable
IFeatureWorkspaceAnno::CreateAnnotationClass
IFeatureDataset::CreateFeatureClass
IClassSchemaEdit::RergisterAsObjectClass
IFeatureDataConverter::ConvertFeatureClass
IFeatureDataConverter::ConvertFeatureDataset
IFeatureDataConverter::ConvertTable
IFeatureDataConverter2::ConvertFeatureClass
IFeatureDataConverter2::ConvertTable
IRouteMeasureEventGeoprocessor::Concatenate
IRouteMeasureEventGeoprocessor::Dissolve
IRouteMeasureEventGeoprocessor::Intersect
IRouteMeasureEventGeoprocessor::Union
INetworkLoader2::ConfigurationKeyword
IDatasetContainer2::CreateDataset
ITopologyContainer::CreateTopology

ArcSDE workspaces started supporting the reporting of configuration keywords at the 8.1 release. You can determine if a workspace supports the reporting of configuration keywords using the IWorkspaceProperties interface.

When To Use

The IWorkspaceConfiguration interface provides access to members that allow you to get a list of configuration keywords from an ArcSDE workspace.
