In This Topic

Performs a find and replace of workspace paths for all layers and tables in the map that share that workspace path. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public void ReplaceDatasource( 
   Datastore findDatabaseStore,
   Datastore replaceDatabaseStore,
   bool validate
)

Public Sub ReplaceDatasource( _
   ByVal findDatabaseStore As Datastore, _
   ByVal replaceDatabaseStore As Datastore, _
   Optional ByVal validate As Boolean _
)

Parameters

findDatabaseStore: A Datastore that you want to find and be replaced with the replaceDatabaseStore parameter depending on the value of the validate parameter.
replaceDatabaseStore: A Datastore that you want to replace to.
validate: (Optional) -true- the workspace will only be updated if the replaceDatabaseStore value is a valid workspace. If it is not valid, the workspace will not be replaced.
-false- the method will set the workspace to match the replaceDatabaseStore, regardless of a valid match. In this case, if a match does not exist, then layers and standalone tables would appear broken.
