Constructor Detail

NgAttributeGeometry

public NgAttributeGeometry(Object obj)
                    throws IOException

Construct a NgAttributeGeometry using a reference to such an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server. This is semantically equivalent to casting obj to NgAttributeGeometry.
Casting to this class from the return value of a method will not work, as this class represents an abstract class in ArcObjects.
*
NgAttributeGeometry o = (NgAttributeGeometry)obj; // will not work

NgAttributeGeometry o = new NgAttributeGeometry(obj); // Use this constructor instead
* @param obj an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server

Throws:

IOException - if there are interop problems NgAttributeGeometry theNgAttributeGeometry = (NgAttributeGeometry) obj;

Method Detail

                           AutomationException

Type of geometric information.

Description

Three type of geometry are available to decode an ESRI geometry blob field:

• esriNgPointsCoordinates, to get the list of intermediate link points for a link graphic element
• esriNgXCoordinate, to get the X position of a node element
• esriNgYCoordinate, to get the Y position of a node element

Product Availability

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

Specified by:

getGeometryType in interface INgAttributeGeometry

Returns:

A com.esri.arcgis.schematic.esriNgGeometryType constant

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

Type of geometric information.

Product Availability

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

Specified by:

setGeometryType in interface INgAttributeGeometry

Parameters:

pVal - A com.esri.arcgis.schematic.esriNgGeometryType constant (in)

getType

public int getType()
            throws IOException,
                   AutomationException

Type of the attribute.

Description

The attribute type is defined when the attribute is created:
- either by calling the INgObjectType CreateAttribute method in the program code,
- or through ArcGIS Schematics Designer, when the attribute has been created.

Seven types of attributes are available:

• esriNgConstantAttribute, for an attribute whose value is a constant
• esriNgFieldAttribute, for an attribute whose values become from a field or a set of fields returned by the query set for its related object type
• esriNgFormattedAttribute, for an attribute whose values are built by formatting other attributes values and/or string,
• esriNgFunctionAttribute, for an attribute whose values are computed by a function
• esriNgGeometryAttribute, for an attribute whose value is a geometric information decoded from an ESRI BLOB
• esriNgQueryAttribute, for an attribute whose value is returned by a query other than the query set for its related object type
• esriNgByFunctionsAttribute,
• esriNgListPointsAttribute,
• esriNgPropertySetAttribute, for an attribute whose values is stored in a PropertySet

Remarks

Attributes of a given type have their own characteristics. You can specify these characteristics through their specific interface INgAttributeConstant, INgAttributeField, INgAttributeFormatted, INgAttributeFunction, INgAttributeGeometry, or INgAttributeQuery.
