Remarks

The ExportDatasets method exports workspace schema and data.

In order to export datasets, you need to pass in IEnumNameMapping.  The outFile is a string that identifies the output XML filename. The filename must have a "xml" file extension, for example, "C:\temp\file.xml".

If you set binaryGeometry to TRUE, the exported workspace will be in binary format.  Otherwise, the workspace will be in normalized format.

If you set compressed to TRUE, the outFile file extension must be set to .ZIP or .Z.

If you set retrieveMetadata to TRUE, the resulting XML file will contain metadata.  Metadata must be created prior to exporting.
