Method Detail

addNameCheck

void addNameCheck(IDimensionStyles nameCheckStyles)
                  throws IOException,
                         AutomationException

Supported Platforms

Windows

Parameters:

nameCheckStyles - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.carto.IDimensionStyles (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

doModalImport

void doModalImport(IFeatureClass sourceClass,
                   IDimensionStyles destinationStyles,
                   int hWndParent)
                   throws IOException,
                          AutomationException

Displays the dialog used to import dimension styles.

Remarks

SourceClass is used to populate the dialog with initial values. If SourceClass does not exist or is null then the dialog is initialized with no default workspace; the user must navigate to the location of the desired dimension feature class containing the style they wish to import. Use AddNameCheck before calling DoModalImport to avoid style name conflicts that will cause the import to fail. If conflicting names are found, the newly imported styles will have an underscore and number (i.e. "_1") appended to the style name.
