Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

IDataBrowserProxy

public interface IDataBrowser
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control the data browser.

Remarks

Developers can implement this interface as a shortcut for obtaining references to workspaces and data through one common interface, the interface is not currently implemented by any classes provided with ArcGIS.
