Provides programmatic access to a map server layer.

Remarks

The MapServerLayer coclass allows users to display and query the contents of a data frame in a map document published through an ArcGIS Map Service, or directly from the map file.
A few notes concerning interfaces that MapServerLayer implements. The count on ICompositeLayer or ICompositeLayer2 may not match the actual number of sub layers represented in the Map Server Layer (see Count on ILayerDescriptions). This is because the count on ICompositeLayer or ICompositeLayer2 does not include members of composite layers that are embedded within the MapServerLayer. The count on ICompositeLayer or ICompositeLayer2 only counts the parent layer.

The values for the IGeoDataset properties Extent and SpatialReference will reflect the map units and spatial reference set in the data frame of the original map document that is bound to the Map Server object. These may not reflect the spatial reference of the layer's underlying data.

The following are not supported: LoadLayers on ILayerFactory, Brightness and Contrast on ILayerEffect and ShowTips and TipText on ILayer.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

The spatial reference of the GeoDataset.

Remarks

This property is read only. For layers, when the first layer is added to ArcMap, its spatial reference is read by this property, and the map is set to this spatial reference.

Instances of the esriCarto.GroupLayer class will return null for this property, as a group layer can contain multiple datasets with different spatial references.

Modifications to a spatial reference returned by this property will not be persisted. To modify the spatial reference of a dataset, the IGeoDatasetSchemaEdit and IGeoDatasetSchemaEdit2 interfaces should be used.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:: getSpatialReference in interface IGeoDataset

Returns:: A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geometry.ISpatialReference
Throws:: IOException - If there are interop problems.; AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getExtent

public IEnvelope getExtent()
                    throws IOException,
                           AutomationException

The extent of the GeoDataset.

Remarks

The IGeoDataset::Extent property returns an envelope representing the maximum extent of data which has been stored in the dataset.

Consider the following scenario. A new feature class has features added to it. The IGeoDataset::Extent is then requested and an envelope is returned. The extents of the envelope returned are represented by the red box in the image below.

The red box represents the IGeoDataset extent

If a portion of the features were then deleted and the extent is again requested an envelope with the exact same extents as during the first request would be returned (see image below). This is because the deletion of features does not shrink the extent. However all additions of features outside the red box would increase the envelope returned to encompass the newly added features.

The red box represents the IGeoDataset extent after some of the features have been deleted

If you would like to update the IGeoDataset::Extent property to reflect the current features in your dataset please see IFeatureClassManage::UpdateExtent (also see IFeatureClassLoad). In the image below the extent has been updated and a new envelope is being returned.

The red box represents the IGeoDataset extent after it has been updated

ESRI's GroupLayer implements this property differently from most other layer coclasses. When you instantiate a new GroupLayer, this property will return a valid envelope with zero height and width. With most other newly instantiated layers (for example FeatureLayer, RasterLayer, TinLayer), this property initally returns Nothing.

Returns time offset that needs to be applied to the data for drawing.

Description

The TimeOffset is used to display data at a different time on the timeline. This is for temporary purposes only. It can be useful for comparing data sets from different time period when you need to display the two sets of data together. For example, to visualize the growth pattern of two wild fires that happened in two different years, one of the layers can be given an offset that will cause it to appear as if the fire started at the same time as the other fire. In this way the growth patterns can be seen together, and compared.
