ArcObjects Library Reference (GlobeCore)  

Globe CoClass

A container for the display and manipulation of data in the Globe.

Product Availability

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

Description

The Globe object is central to the ArcGlobe application. It's analogous to Map and Scene objects in ArcMap and ArcScene. It's used to add and retrieve layers and to manipulate document level properties.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Extended Error Information

Use the ISupportErrorInfo method InterfaceSupportsErrorInfo to determine if the object supports extended error information. If the object supports extended error info, VC++ developers should use the OLE/COM IErrorInfo interface to access the ErrorInfo object. Visual Basic developers should use the global error object Err to retrieve this extended error information.
