Constructor Detail

AppendAnnotation

public AppendAnnotation()
Creates the Append Annotation Feature Classes tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.


AppendAnnotation

public AppendAnnotation(Object inputFeatures,
                        Object outputFeatureclass,
                        double referenceScale)
Creates the Append Annotation Feature Classes tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:
inputFeatures - input annotation features that will form an annotation class in the output feature class.
outputFeatureclass - new annotation feature class that contains an annotation class for each input annotation feature class.
referenceScale - reference scale set in the output feature class. Input features created at a different reference scale will be transformed to match this output reference scale.
Method Detail

getInputFeatures

public Object getInputFeatures()
Returns the Input features parameter of this tool . This parameter is input annotation features that will form an annotation class in the output feature class. This is a required parameter.

Returns:
the Input features

setInputFeatures

public void setInputFeatures(Object inputFeatures)
Sets the Input features parameter of this tool . This parameter is input annotation features that will form an annotation class in the output feature class. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:
inputFeatures - input annotation features that will form an annotation class in the output feature class.

getOutputFeatureclass

public Object getOutputFeatureclass()
