Public Function New( _
   ByVal name As String, _
   ByVal workspace As SdeWorkspace _
)

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim name As String Dim workspace As SdeWorkspace   Dim instance As New FeatureDataset(name, workspace)

public FeatureDataset( 
   string name,
   SdeWorkspace workspace
)

Parameters

name

Name for the FeatureDataset.

workspace

The workspace for the dataset location, specifically a SdeWorkspace.

This method is used to create a new (dynamic) layer using a newly-created workspace. A dynamic layer is a layer based on data not yet in the map service. The workspace does not need to exist in the map service, and no existing layers need to be using the workspace. Use this method when the data are in ArcSDE. Use FeatureDataset(string, ShapeWorkspace) if the data are in shapefiles.

The name must match the name of the data set in the data source. Do not use an arbitrary name. This name is not the same as the layer name in which the data set will be used. For ArcSDE, use the full name of the layer such as DATA.STATES. Performance is generally better if the name is all upper case.
