Interface IRelationshipClassContainer

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

FeatureDataset, IRelationshipClassContainerProxy

public interface IRelationshipClassContainer
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that create, add and hand out relationship classes.

Description

The IRelationshipClassContainer interface lets you create a relationship class within a feature dataset rather than a workspace.

Remarks

The AddRelationshipClass method is effectively superseded by IDatasetContainer::AddDataset. The IDatasetContainer interface lets you move datasets between feature datasets and workspaces—both objects implement the interface.

When To Use

The IRelationshipClassContainer interface lets you create a relationship class within a feature dataset rather than a workspace. The AddRelationshipClass method is effectively superseded by IDatasetContainer::AddDataset.
