Interface IFeatureElement

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

IFeatureElementProxy

public interface IFeatureElement
extends Serializable

Provides access to members to return feature element properties.

Remarks

It is recommended that developers do not use Complex Junctions in their data modeling solutions. Developers can leverage existing Geodatabase components in order to implement partial functionality, such as IFeatureClassExtension.

Product Availability

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

Method Summary

int	getElementType() The Type of Feature Element.
IGeometry	getGeometry() The Geometry of the Feature Element.
IFeature	getOwner() The Feature that owns the Feature Element.
IFeatureElement	getParent() The Parent of the Feature Element.
