synchronize

public void synchronize(int action,
                        int interval)
                 throws IOException,
                        AutomationException
Updates metadata with the current properties; may create metadata if it doesn't already exist.

Description

The Synchronize method is used to extract metadata properties from an object and write those properties to the metadata .xml. Depending on the value of the esriMetaSyncAction, the Synchronize method may generate a new set of metadata if it doesn't already exist.

Remarks

The following actions will result in synchronization given each of the listed conditions:

Action Metadata status Esri/Sync element Interval parameter
esriMSAAccessed Doesn't matter Must not be FALSE Must be less than actual interval
esriMSAAlways Doesn't matter Doesn't matter Doesn't matter
esriMSACreated Must not exist Must not be FALSE Must be less than actual interval
esriMSANotCreated Must exist Must not be FALSE Must be less than actual interval
esriMSAOverwrite Doesn't matter Doesn't matter Doesn't matter

The difference between esriMSAAlways and esriMSAOverwrite lies in which elements are synchronized. esriMSAAlways will honor the removal or value change of an element's Sync attribute (to disable synchronization), whereas using esriMSAOverwrite is equivalent to setting the IXmlPropertySet2.OverwriteSyncAttribute to true for the metadata's property set, meaning that even elements without a Sync attribute of TRUE will be synchronized.

getObjectClassID

public int getObjectClassID()
                     throws IOException,
                            AutomationException
The object class ID.

Remarks

Each feature class or table registered with the geodatabase is an object class. Object classes have a unique ID which distinguishes them from other object classes in the geodatabase. The ObjectClassID property returns this ID as an integer. The object class ID is assigned by the system when the class is created, or registered with the geodatabase, it cannot be modified.

Tables that are in the database, but not registered with the geodatabase, will have an object class ID of -1.
