All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class SplitLine
extends AbstractGPTool

Creates a feature class containing lines that are generated by splitting input lines or polygon boundaries at their vertices. The Split Line At Vertices tool is contained in the Data Management Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• The attributes of the input features will be maintained in the output feature class.
• If an input line has no vertices between its start and end points, it will be copied to the output as it is; otherwise, every segment between two consecutive vertices will become a line feature in the output. Similarly, every segment between two consecutive vertices along a polygon boundary will become a line feature in the output. The output feature class can be a much larger file, depending on how many vertices the input features have.
• A parametric (true) curve line or segment will not be densified and will remain true curve as an output line feature. This does not apply to shapefile data.
• The function name of this tool in scripting is SplitLine, not SplitLineAtVertices.
