public string Description {get;} |
When authoring an ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer in ArcMap to publish an ArcGIS Server web service, the Description information is set in the Description section on the General tab of the Data Frame Properties dialog. See the following ArcMap screen shot:
How to use:
When the ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer Initializes the Description will be automatically populated in the TextBlock.The XAML code in this example is used in conjunction with the code-behind (C# or VB.NET) to demonstrate the functionality.
The following screen shot corresponds to the code example in this page.
