Interface IRepresentationRuleInit

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

RepresentationRule

public interface IRepresentationRuleInit
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that initialize a representation rule.

Remarks

Use this piece of code to create and initilize a regular ArcGIS symbol to a RepresentationRule object.

Public Sub RepRuleInit()

      Dim pRepresentationRules As IRepresentationRules

      Dim pDiamond As ISimpleMarkerSymbol

      Dim pRepresentationRule As IRepresentationRule

      Dim pRepRuleInit As IRepresentationRuleInit

      Dim lDiamondID As Long



      'Create new RepresentationRules for this Representation Class

      Set pRepresentationRules = New RepresentationRules



      'Create new Simple Marker Symbol (diamond)

      Set pDiamond = New SimpleMarkerSymbol

      pDiamond.Style = esriSMSDiamond

      pDiamond.size = 4



      'Create a new RepresentationRule using a SimpleMarkerSymbol object that implements ISymbol interface and add to Collection

      Set pRepresentationRule = New RepresentationRule

      Set pRepRuleInit = pRepresentationRule

      pRepRuleInit.InitWithSymbol pDiamond

      'Initializes with standard ArcGIS symbols

      lDiamondID = pRepresentationRules.Add(pRepresentationRule)

      pRepresentationRules.Name(lDiamondID) = "diamond"

End Sub

When To Use

Use IRepresentationRuleInit interface to convert a standard ArcGIS symbol to a basic symbol that can be used by a representation rule object to representation features in a representation class.

Product Availability

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

Method Summary

void	initWithSymbol(ISymbol symbol) Initializes the representation rule with a symbol.
