Interface INetworkUpdate

All Superinterfaces:

All Known Implementing Classes:
INetworkUpdateProxy, StreetNetwork, UtilityNetwork

public interface INetworkUpdate
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that start and end sessions for updating the attributes, schema, and topology of the network.

When To Use

Use the INetworkUpdate interface when you want to update the schema, attributes, or topology of a logical network. An updating session must be in progress in order to update the network. An updating session can be started by calling one of the StartXXXUpdating methods on the INetworkUpdate interface. For instance, to edit the attributes (disabled state or a weight value) of the network, it is necessary to execute the StartAttributesUpdating method.
This interface is designed specifically for the editing of a stand-alone logical network, a logical network that does not have an associated geometric network. It is imperative that if you have a geometric network, the logical network must be edited through its associated geometric network. You risk data corruption if you use the INetworkUpdate interface on logical networks that have an associated geometric network.
When working with a versioned network, updates to the logical network must also be done within an workspace edit session. You can start an edit session by calling IWorkspaceEdit::StartEditing.
When doing any type of editing operation with networks you must always start the operation by calling one of the start methods and ending the operation by calling the corresponding stop method.

Method Detail

startSchemaUpdating

void startSchemaUpdating()
                         throws IOException,
                                AutomationException
Starts a session for updating the schema of the network.

Remarks

Starts updating of the network schema. This updating session must be open before calling any methods on the INetSchemaEdit interface.
If you run StartSchemaUpdating to begin an updating session, then be sure to run StopSchemaUpdating when you have finished updating.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

stopSchemaUpdating

void stopSchemaUpdating()
                        throws IOException,
                               AutomationException
Ends the session for updating the schema for the network.

Remarks

StopSchemaUpdating is run to close an updating session on the schema that started with StartSchemaUpdating. Do not run this method if you did not begin editing the schema by executing StartSchemaUpdating. Methods in the INetSchemaEdit interface can not be executed once StopSchemaUpdating has been executed.

Product Availability

Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

isSchemaBeingUpdated

boolean isSchemaBeingUpdated()
                             throws IOException,
                                    AutomationException
Indicates if the schema of the network is currently being updated.

Remarks

IsSchemaBeingUpdated identifies whether there is an open updating session on the schema. This updating session is necessary to execute the methods in INetSchemaEdit and can be opened by executing the StartSchemaUpdating method.

                                  AutomationException
Starts a session for updating the topology of the network.

Remarks

Starts updating of the network topology. This updating session must be open before calling any methods on the INetTopologyEdit interface.
If you run StartTopologyUpdating to begin an updating session, then be sure to run StopTopologyUpdating when you have finished updating.
