Interface INgPole

All Superinterfaces:
Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
INgPoleProxy, NgPole

public interface INgPole
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control the pole.

Description

A pole is an object that symbolizes the connection between a flag and the network element it is associated with. It is represented by a vector segment.

For maximum quality graphics, pole ports, or special (hidden) points onto which flag poles are to be connected, can be defined for node and flag symbols. The pole will then be calculated so as to automatically snap to the nearest flag and associated element pole ports.

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.


Method Summary
 Object getEffect(int effect)
          Returns the effect 'effect' set for the pole (see esriNgPoleEffect).
 INgPoint getExtremityPoint(INgView view)
          Returns the end point of the pole in the view 'view'.
 INgPoint getOriginPoint(INgView view)
          Returns the origin point of the pole in the view 'view'.
 boolean isEffectSet(int effect)
          Indicates if the effect 'effect' related to the pole is set (see esriNgPoleEffect).
 void removeEffect(int effect)
          Removes the effect or restores the default effect 'effect' set for the pole (see esriNgPoleEffect).
 void setEffect(int effect, Object effValue)
          Modifies the effect 'effect' set for the pole (see esriNgPoleEffect).

effect - A com.esri.arcgis.schematic.esriNgPoleEffect constant (in)
Returns:
A Variant
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setEffect

void setEffect(int effect,
               Object effValue)
               throws IOException,
                      AutomationException
Modifies the effect 'effect' set for the pole (see esriNgPoleEffect).

Description

Parameters:
effect - A com.esri.arcgis.schematic.esriNgPoleEffect constant (in)
effValue - A Variant (in)
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

removeEffect

void removeEffect(int effect)
                  throws IOException,
                         AutomationException
Removes the effect or restores the default effect 'effect' set for the pole (see esriNgPoleEffect).

Description

Note that when removing an effect that is always set, the pole default effect value is automatically restored; and removing an effect that is not set by default, really removes the pole effect.

Parameters:
effect - A com.esri.arcgis.schematic.esriNgPoleEffect constant (in)
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

INgPole.setEffect(int, java.lang.Object), INgPole.getEffect(int), INgPole.isEffectSet(int)

isEffectSet

boolean isEffectSet(int effect)
                    throws IOException,
                           AutomationException
Indicates if the effect 'effect' related to the pole is set (see esriNgPoleEffect).

Description

By default, Schematics automatically sets default values for some pole effects (see the List of the pole default effect values, below). For all these effects, the IsEffectSet method returns True. For the other effects (those that are not automatically set by default), the IsEffectSet method returns True only if the effect has been set:

- Either when defining the pole's characteristics in ArcGIS Schematics Designer

- Or by calling the SetEffect method in the code project.

esriNgPoleDetectability: esriNgDetectable

esriNgPoleHighlightedState: esriNgNotHighlighted

esriNgPolePriority: 50 or more

esriNgPoleSelectability: esriNgSelectable

Parameters:
effect - A com.esri.arcgis.schematic.esriNgPoleEffect constant (in)
Returns:
The isSet
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getOriginPoint

INgPoint getOriginPoint(INgView view)
                        throws IOException,
                               AutomationException
Returns the origin point of the pole in the view 'view'.

Description

You can specify the view where the pole is displayed. In fact, if your pole appears in two views (for example, one view and its associated view) and if symbol scaling is different in these views, the origin point of the pole could be different in the two views.

Parameters:
view - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.schematic.INgView (in, optional, pass 0 if not required)
Returns:
A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.schematic.INgPoint
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

Returns the end point of the pole in the view 'view'.
