Class CreateCADXData

java.lang.Object
  com.esri.arcgis.geoprocessing.AbstractGPTool
      com.esri.arcgis.geoprocessing.tools.conversiontools.CreateCADXData

All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class CreateCADXData
extends AbstractGPTool

Creates an attribute field called 'XDList' in the Input Table. The Create CAD XData tool is contained in the Conversion Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• All input feature classes and/or feature layers are valid inputs to this tool.
• XData is only read by AutoCAD.
• The XDList field that is created by this function is read by the tool Expor to CAD when exported to AutoCAD .
• Extended Entity Data, though, allows you to attach up to 16K of information to each and every entity in the drawing.
• You can also keep the XData separate from other information because it uses a uniquely registered name.
• If your function fails with "Output exceeds field length", then include less fields in your XData string. The XData field that is added has a maximum field length of 2049 characters.
