com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase
Class IFeatureCursorProxy

java.lang.Object
  com.esri.arcgis.interop.Dispatch
      com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeatureCursorProxy

All Implemented Interfaces:

IFeatureCursor, Externalizable, Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ITemporalCursorProxy

public class IFeatureCursorProxy
extends com.esri.arcgis.interop.Dispatch
implements IFeatureCursor, Serializable

Provides access to members that hand out enumerated features, field collections and allows for the updating, deleting and inserting of features.

Remarks

The IFeatureCursor interface provides access to a set of features in a feature class. It operates in the same way as ICursor, although it does not inherit from that interface. This saves you from having to use Query-Interface when dealing with features rather than rows.

Feature cursors can be used as an input to IFeatureCursorBuffer, which lets you spatially buffer the features by a distance.

You can also draw the features from a cursor on the display. For more information, see the IFeatureRenderer::Draw method.

When using cursors within an edit session, they should always be scoped to edit operations. In other words, a cursor should be created after an edit operation has begun and should not be used once that edit operation has been stopped or aborted.

findField

public int findField(String name)
              throws IOException,
                     AutomationException

The index of the field with the specified name.

Remarks

If the specified field cannot be found, this method returns a value of -1.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:

findField in interface IFeatureCursor

Parameters:

name - The name (in)

Returns:

The fieldIndex

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getFields

public IFields getFields()
                  throws IOException,
                         AutomationException

The fields Collection for this cursor.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:

getFields in interface IFeatureCursor

Returns:

A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFields

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

nextFeature

public IFeature nextFeature()
                     throws IOException,
                            AutomationException

Advance the position of the cursor by one and return the Feature object at that position.

Remarks

If you fetch features out of a geodatabase using a cursor (recycling or non recycling), the spatial reference of the feature, as returned by NextFeature, is guaranteed to be in the spatial reference that you specified in the query filter .

No guarantee however is made that the geometry of the feature will continue to remain in this spatial reference. In particular, if you use a non recycling cursor, then the feature you fetch will be shared with other consumers and any one of these may change its spatial reference at any time. It is the developers responsibility to test the spatial reference or the geometry you get from the feature (via IFeature::Shape) if you retrieve the geometry at a later time and rely on its spatial reference being a specified spatial reference.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

nextFeature in interface IFeatureCursor

Returns:

A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IFeature

Remarks

The cursor must be initialized to a feature (with the NextFeature() method) before this method can be successfully called.
