InheritanceEditFeaturesTask Inheritance BAServerTask Inheritance BATask Inheritance AbstractTask Inheritance flash.events.EventDispatcher

The Edit Features task edits features in a repository feature layer.

The changedItem layer and feature edits from the features array should have the same type of geometry and the same spatial reference.

All attributes of feature edits contained in the features array should be present in the changedItem layer. Values for attributes of features from the edited layer which are missing in the feature edits are not changed.

The result of this task is a Boolean variable whose value is always true.

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

Creates a new instance of the EditFeaturesTask 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(features:Array, changedItem:FolderItem, commandName:String = null):BACommand

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

Parameters

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

Returns
BACommand — A new command.

createParameters()method 
public static function createParameters(features:Array, changedItem:FolderItem):IBATaskParameters

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

Parameters

features:Array — Array of feature edits. This array should contain items of the EditFeature type.
 
changedItem:FolderItem — Folder item containing a feature layer to be edited.

Returns
IBATaskParameters — Parameters of this task.

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

Sends a request for executing an Edit 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

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

Returns
AsyncToken — Asynch token associated with the response.

Examples
ActionScript to execute an Edit Features task:
     
     // features is an array of com.esri.baserver.EditFeature items.
     // changedItem is a repository layer whose features will be edited.
     
     editFeaturesTask.execute(features, changedItem, new Responder(resultHandler, faultHandler));
