ArcGIS.Core.Data.Topology Namespace / TopologyDefinition Class / GetFeatureClassNames Method
Example

In This Topic
    GetFeatureClassNames Method (TopologyDefinition)
    In This Topic
    Gets the name of all the ArcGIS.Core.Data.FeatureClasss that participate in the Topology. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
    Syntax
    public IReadOnlyList<string> GetFeatureClassNames()
    Public Function GetFeatureClassNames() As IReadOnlyList(Of String)

    Return Value

    The name of all the ArcGIS.Core.Data.FeatureClasss that participate in the Topology.
    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    A geodatabase-related exception has occurred.
