The Delete Features task deletes features in a repository feature layer.

This task deletes features whose Object ID value is listed in the input oids array. Typically, values of Object ID are enumerated in a repository feature layer from zero (for shapefile workspace type) or one (in other cases). When features are removed from a repository feature layer, Object IDs of remaining features can be changed. For example, in the case of a shapefile workspace, Object IDs of remaining features are renumbered.

The result of this task is true if at least one feature was successfully deleted.

The last result of executing the Delete Features task.


Implementation

Constructor Detail
DeleteFeaturesTask()Constructor
public function DeleteFeaturesTask(urlOrClient:Object = null)

Creates a new instance of the DeleteFeaturesTask class.

A new task can be constructed in two ways: as a task sharing a BAServerClient type instance with other tasks (the urlOrClient parameter has the BAServerClient type) or as a standalone task encapsulating its own client.

The base URL to the Business Analyst Server HTTP Service looks as follows:

http://{host}:{port}/ArcGIS/baserver/REST/services/DefaultMap/BAServer

The {host} and {port} parameters in this URL should be substituted with valid Business Analyst Server host name and port, respectively.

Parameters
urlOrClient:Object (default = null) — A variable containing either Business Analyst Server HTTP Service base URL string or an instance of the BAServerClient class.

Method Detail
createCommand()method
public function createCommand(oids:Array, changedItem:FolderItem, commandName:String = null):BACommand

Creates a new command encapsulating this task and the given parameters.

Parameters

oids:Array — Array of OIDs of features to be deleted. This array should contain items of the int type.
 
changedItem:FolderItem — Folder item containing a feature layer to be modified.
 
commandName:String (default = null) — Command name.

Returns
BACommand — A new command.
createParameters()method 
public static function createParameters(oids:Array, changedItem:FolderItem):IBATaskParameters

Creates parameters of this task in order to execute it with a generic or batch task.

Parameters

oids:Array — Array of OIDs of features to be deleted. This array should contain items of the int type.
 
changedItem:FolderItem — Folder item containing a feature layer to be modified.

Returns
IBATaskParameters — Parameters of this task.

execute()method 
public function execute(oids:Array, changedItem:FolderItem, responder:IResponder = null):AsyncToken

Sends a request for executing a Delete Features task to the Business Analyst Server HTTP (REST) Service.

A response can be received in two ways—in an optional responder object passed in parameters of this method and/or in listeners of fault and taskCompleted events registered for this task.

The responder is notified first when a response is received and parsed. Its fault method receives a parameter of the FaultEvent type and its result method receives a parameter of the BATaskCompletedEvent type whose result property contains the result object. After that the received event is dispatched to listeners of this task.

If a response is succesfully received and parsed, the result is assigned to the lastResult property of this task.

Parameters

oids:Array — Array of OIDs of features to be deleted. This array should contain items of the int type.
 
changedItem:FolderItem — Folder item containing a feature layer to be modified.
 
responder:IResponder (default = null) — A responder to call on result or fault.

Returns
AsyncToken — Asynch token associated with the response.
Constant Detail

Task name.

Examples
ActionScript to execute a Delete Features task:
     
     // oids is an array of Object IDs of features to delete.
     // changedItem is a repository layer whose features will be deleted.
     
     deleteFeaturesTask.execute(oids, changedItem, new Responder(resultHandler, faultHandler));
