isSupportedAtVersion

public boolean isSupportedAtVersion(int docVersion)

                                    AutomationException
Is this object valid at the given document version.

Remarks

Use IsSupportedAtVersion to identify if a particular object should be saved to the ObjectStream. This result is based on the esriArcGISVersion enumeration. In some instances, if the object is not supported at a particular ArcGIS version, the object may support conversion to another similar object; use IDocumentVersionSupportGEN::ConvertToSupportedObject to accomplish this.

Product Availability

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

Specified by:
isSupportedAtVersion in interface IDocumentVersionSupportGEN
Parameters:
docVersion - A com.esri.arcgis.system.esriArcGISVersion constant (in)
Returns:
The supported
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

convertToSupportedObject

public Object convertToSupportedObject(int docVersion)

Convert the object to another object that is supported.

Remarks

This method should be used when IDocumentVersionSupportGEN::IsSupportedAtVersion returns FALSE. Calling ConvertToSupportedObject will return an IUnknown pointer to a relevant object supported at the particular ArcGIS version. Not all objects will return a supported object; in these cases a null pointer will be returned.

Product Availability

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