Geometric network properties example

The following stand-alone script displays properties for a geometric network:

import arcpy

# Create a Describe object from the geometric network.
#
desc = arcpy.Describe("C:/data/wellingham.gdb/water/water_Net")

# Print some geometric network properties
#
print("NetworkType:                    " + desc.networkType)
print("OrphanJunctionFeatureClassName: " + \
    desc.orphanJunctionFeatureClassName)
print("Feature Class Names:")
for fcname in desc.featureClassNames:
    print("  " + fcname)
