Constructor Detail

FeatureToPolygon

public FeatureToPolygon()

Creates the Feature To Polygon tool with defaults.

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

FeatureToPolygon

public FeatureToPolygon(Object inFeatures,
                        Object outFeatureClass)

Creates the Feature To Polygon 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:

inFeatures - Feature Layer, line or polygon datasets whose geometry will be used to create area features. Each distict "closed" area will become a feature in the output feature class.

outFeatureClass - Feature Class, the path name of the feature class that will be created and will contain the result of the operation.

Method Detail

getInFeatures

public Object getInFeatures()

Returns the Input Features parameter of this tool . This parameter is Feature Layer, line or polygon datasets whose geometry will be used to create area features. Each distict "closed" area will become a feature in the output feature class. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Input Features

setInFeatures

public void setInFeatures(Object inFeatures)

Sets the Input Features parameter of this tool . This parameter is Feature Layer, line or polygon datasets whose geometry will be used to create area features. Each distict "closed" area will become a feature in the output feature class. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

inFeatures - Feature Layer, line or polygon datasets whose geometry will be used to create area features. Each distict "closed" area will become a feature in the output feature class.

getOutFeatureClass

public Object getOutFeatureClass()

Returns the Output Feature Class parameter of this tool . This parameter is Feature Class, the path name of the feature class that will be created and will contain the result of the operation. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Output Feature Class

setOutFeatureClass

public void setOutFeatureClass(Object outFeatureClass)

Sets the Output Feature Class parameter of this tool . This parameter is Feature Class, the path name of the feature class that will be created and will contain the result of the operation. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

outFeatureClass - Feature Class, the path name of the feature class that will be created and will contain the result of the operation.

getClusterTolerance

public Object getClusterTolerance()

Returns the XY Tolerance parameter of this tool . This parameter is Linear unit, you can set the value to be higher for data that has less coordinate accuracy and lower for datasets with extremely high accuracy. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:

the XY Tolerance

setClusterTolerance

public void setClusterTolerance(Object clusterTolerance)

Sets the XY Tolerance parameter of this tool . This parameter is Linear unit, you can set the value to be higher for data that has less coordinate accuracy and lower for datasets with extremely high accuracy. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:

clusterTolerance - Linear unit, you can set the value to be higher for data that has less coordinate accuracy and lower for datasets with extremely high accuracy.

getAttributes

public String getAttributes()

Returns the Preserve attributes parameter of this tool . This parameter is String, specifies whether to transfer feilds and attributes from input feature classes to the output. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:
