Constructor Detail

CreateFeatureDataset

public CreateFeatureDataset()

Creates the Create Feature Dataset tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.

CreateFeatureDataset

public CreateFeatureDataset(Object outDatasetPath,
                            String outName)

Creates the Create Feature Dataset tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:

outDatasetPath - Workspace, the ArcSDE, file or personal geodatabase (it must already exist) in which the Output Feature Dataset will be created.

outName - String, the name of the feature dataset to be created.

Method Detail

getOutDatasetPath

public Object getOutDatasetPath()

Returns the Feature Dataset Location parameter of this tool . This parameter is Workspace, the ArcSDE, file or personal geodatabase (it must already exist) in which the Output Feature Dataset will be created. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Feature Dataset Location

setOutDatasetPath

public void setOutDatasetPath(Object outDatasetPath)

Sets the Feature Dataset Location parameter of this tool . This parameter is Workspace, the ArcSDE, file or personal geodatabase (it must already exist) in which the Output Feature Dataset will be created. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

outDatasetPath - Workspace, the ArcSDE, file or personal geodatabase (it must already exist) in which the Output Feature Dataset will be created.

getOutName

public String getOutName()

Returns the Feature Dataset Name parameter of this tool . This parameter is String, the name of the feature dataset to be created. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Feature Dataset Name

setOutName

public void setOutName(String outName)

Sets the Feature Dataset Name parameter of this tool . This parameter is String, the name of the feature dataset to be created. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

outName - String, the name of the feature dataset to be created.

getSpatialReference

public Object getSpatialReference()

Returns the Coordinate System parameter of this tool . This parameter is Spatial Reference, the spatial reference of the output feature dataset. The dialog allows you to pick a coordinate system. If you wish to control other aspects of the spatial reference (ie the xy, z, m domains, resolutions, tolerances) use the relevant environments (click the environments button). If you choose the "Import..." option on the spatial reference properties dialog and select an existing dataset, all spatial reference properties from that dataset (coordinate system, domains and tolerances) will be used. The recommended way to specify the coordinate system at the command line is to create a variable. Right click and choose insert variable. This will allow you to use the spatial reference properties dialog to set the coordinate system. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:

the Coordinate System

setSpatialReference

public void setSpatialReference(Object spatialReference)

Sets the Coordinate System parameter of this tool . This parameter is Spatial Reference, the spatial reference of the output feature dataset. The dialog allows you to pick a coordinate system. If you wish to control other aspects of the spatial reference (ie the xy, z, m domains, resolutions, tolerances) use the relevant environments (click the environments button). If you choose the "Import..." option on the spatial reference properties dialog and select an existing dataset, all spatial reference properties from that dataset (coordinate system, domains and tolerances) will be used. The recommended way to specify the coordinate system at the command line is to create a variable. Right click and choose insert variable. This will allow you to use the spatial reference properties dialog to set the coordinate system. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:

spatialReference - Spatial Reference, the spatial reference of the output feature dataset. The dialog allows you to pick a coordinate system. If you wish to control other aspects of the spatial reference (ie the xy, z, m domains, resolutions, tolerances) use the relevant environments (click the environments button). If you choose the "Import..." option on the spatial reference properties dialog and select an existing dataset, all spatial reference properties from that dataset (coordinate system, domains and tolerances) will be used. The recommended way to specify the coordinate system at the command line is to create a variable. Right click and choose insert variable. This will allow you to use the spatial reference properties dialog to set the coordinate system.
