Constructor Detail

AnnotationElement

public AnnotationElement(Object obj)
                  throws IOException

Construct a AnnotationElement using a reference to such an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server. This is semantically equivalent to casting obj to AnnotationElement.
Casting to this class from the return value of a method will not work, as this class represents an abstract class in ArcObjects.
*
AnnotationElement o = (AnnotationElement)obj; // will not work

AnnotationElement o = new AnnotationElement(obj); // Use this constructor instead
* @param obj an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server

Throws:

IOException - if there are interop problems AnnotationElement theAnnotationElement = (AnnotationElement) obj;
