Description

ConvertFeatureDataset automates the conversion of feature datasets. Converts only the simple feature classes contained in the source feature dataset. Complex feature classes (annotation, networks) and relationship classes are not converted. The source feature dataset name is appended to the beginning of each of the feature class names in the target feature dataset. For example a target feature dataset, “USA2”, with a source dataset named, “USA”, would have “USA_” appended onto each of its feature class names. The feature class “roads” would be “USA_roads” in the target feature dataset. As a result of this behavior, a feature dataset can only be converted into a given target geodatabase one time without renaming (programmatically) the target feature classes.
