All Implemented Interfaces:

IEngineExtendedObjectInspector, IEngineObjectInspector, com.esri.arcgis.interop.RemoteObjRef, Serializable

public class EngineFeatureInspector
extends Object
implements com.esri.arcgis.interop.RemoteObjRef, IEngineObjectInspector, IEngineExtendedObjectInspector

Feature Inspector for Engine.

Description

This object is new at ArcGIS 9.3.

This CoClass represents the default feature inspector associated with the EngineEditor. It has been made CoCreateable so that customized feature inspectors can incorporate it.

To create your own custom property inspector for a specific feature class, implement the IEngineFeatureInspector interface. For example, you may want to have a custom Property Inspector that displays the area and perimeter of selected polygons or one that displays an image relating to the selected feature.

To create your own custom property inspector for features in a specific feature class, implement the IEngineObjectInspector and IClassExtension interfaces, then add your extension’s GUID to the EXTCLSID field for that feature class in the GDB_ObjectClasses table. When the user opens the Attributes dialog box, it will display the custom inspector instead of the default inspector.

Instantiate a new EngineFeatureInspector when you want to incorporate the default Property Inspector with your custom one.

Constructor Detail

EngineFeatureInspector

public EngineFeatureInspector()
                       throws IOException,
                              UnknownHostException

Constructs a EngineFeatureInspector using ArcGIS Engine.

Throws:

IOException - if there are interop problems

UnknownHostException - if there are interop problems

EngineFeatureInspector

public EngineFeatureInspector(Object obj)
                       throws IOException

Construct a EngineFeatureInspector using a reference to such an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server. This is semantically equivalent to casting obj to EngineFeatureInspector.

Parameters:

obj - an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server

Throws:

IOException - if there are interop problems EngineFeatureInspector theEngineFeatureInspector = (EngineFeatureInspector) obj;

Method Detail

getClsid

public static String getClsid()

getClsid.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Compare this object with another

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

the hashcode for this object

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

addISelectionEventsListener

public void addISelectionEventsListener(ISelectionEvents theListener)
                                 throws IOException

addISelectionEventsListener. Listen to events generated by this class.

Parameters:

theListener - An object that implements the com.esri.arcgis.carto.ISelectionEvents interface.

Throws:

IOException - If there are communications problems.

removeISelectionEventsListener

public void removeISelectionEventsListener(ISelectionEvents theListener)
                                    throws IOException

removeISelectionEventsListener. Stop listening to events generated by this class.

Parameters:

theListener - An object that implements the com.esri.arcgis.carto.ISelectionEvents interface.

Throws:

IOException - If there are communications problems.

getHWnd

public int getHWnd()
            throws IOException,
                   AutomationException

The window handle for the inspector.

Description

The Object Inpector reads this property to determine what it will display in its right pane. Custom Object Inspectors must supply the hWnd property of the window or control that is going to be displayed.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine.

Specified by:

getHWnd in interface IEngineObjectInspector

Returns:

The hWnd (A COM typedef)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

inspect

public void inspect(IEngineEnumRow objects,
                    IEngineEditor editor)
             throws IOException,
                    AutomationException

Inspects the properties of the features.

Description

Use this method to display your custom Feature Inspector.

The Inspect method provides you with an enumeration of row objects to inspect as well as a pointer to the EngineEditor singleton object. Use the row enumeration to retrieve properties of a feature. Then you can use the EngineEditor object reference to modify properties of a row within the context of an edit operation.

clear

public void clear()
           throws IOException,
                  AutomationException

Clear the inspector before inspecting another object.

Description

Use this property to reset your custom Feature Inspector control(s). The Clear property is called prior to updating the Inspect property with a new row enumeration.
