Gets the type of the relationship.

Namespace:  ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Data

Assembly:  ESRI.ArcGISExplorer (in ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.dll) Version: 2.0.0.1500 (2.0.0.1500)

Syntax

C#
public TableRelationshipType Type { get; }
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public ReadOnly Property Type As TableRelationshipType

Field Value

One of the TableRelationshipType values which indicates the type of the relationship.

Examples

The code below accesses two geodatabase relationship classes using the GetTableRelationship method then prints the TableRelationship properties for each, including the Type property.
CopyC#
//Example 1 - Open a geodatabase relationship class which has a one-to-many cardinality 
//and print out the TableRelationship properties.

//Open file geodatabase
Geodatabase scotlandGdb = new Geodatabase(@"C:\Data\Scotland.gdb");

//Open the mountains feature class
Table mountains = scotlandGdb.OpenTable("mountains");

//Open the MountainRatings geodatabase relationship class
TableRelationship mtnAndRatingsRel = scotlandGdb.OpenTableRelationship("MountainRatings");

//Print out properties describing the TableRelationship 
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.Name);                        //Prints "MountainRatings"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.Type.ToString());             //Prints "Geodatabase"          
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.Cardinality.ToString());      //Prints "OneToMany"   
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.IsAttributed.ToString());     //Prints "False"  
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.OriginTable.Name);            //Prints "mountains"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.OriginKeyColumnName);         //Prints "OBJECTID"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.DestinationTable.Name);       //Prints "mtn_ratings"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mtnAndRatingsRel.OriginForeignKeyColumnName);  //Prints "MTN_ID"

//Example 2 - Open a geodatabase relationship class which has a many-to-many cardinality 
//and print out the TableRelationship properties.

//Open file geodatabase
Geodatabase propertiesGdb = new Geodatabase(@"C:\Data\Property.gdb");

//Open the Properties feature class
Table properties = propertiesGdb.OpenTable("Properties");

//Open the PropertyOwners geodatabase relationship class
TableRelationship propertyOwnersRel = propertiesGdb.OpenTableRelationship("PropertyOwners");

//Print out properties describing the TableRelationship 
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.Name);                           //Prints "PropertyOwners"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.Type.ToString());                //Prints "Geodatabase"          
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.Cardinality.ToString());         //Prints "ManyToMany"   
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.IsAttributed.ToString());        //Prints "False"  
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.OriginTable.Name);               //Prints "Properties"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.OriginKeyColumnName);            //Prints "PropertyID"
//Note that the OriginForeignKeyColumnName is in a geodatabase-managed "link" table
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.OriginForeignKeyColumnName);     //Prints "PropID"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.DestinationTable.Name);          //Prints "Owners"
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.DestinationKeyColumnName);       //Prints "OwnerID"
//Note that the DestinationForeignKeyColumnName is a geodatabase-managed "link" table
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(propertyOwnersRel.DestinationForeignKeyColumnName);//Prints "OwnID"
