Class FeatureClassToShapefile

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

All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class FeatureClassToShapefile
extends AbstractGPTool

Copies the features from one or more feature classes or layers to a folder of shapefiles. The Feature Class To Shapefile (multiple) tool is contained in the Conversion Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• The name of the output shapefile will be the name of the input feature class. For example, if the input is C:\base.gdb\rivers, the output shapefile will be named rivers.shp. To explicitly control the output shapefile name and for some additional conversion options, see the tool.
• If the output shapefile already exists in the Output Folder, a number will be appended to the end to make it unique (for example, rivers_1.shp).
