Network Attributes

Synthèse

Provides information about network attributes that are defined for a given network dataset.

Discussion

For a given network attribute, edgeDirectionX, sourceNameX, evaluatorTypeX, and dataX are dynamic properties where X indicates a particular evaluator. The possible range of values for X depends on the evaluatorCount property. For example, if a network attribute named DriveTime has two evaluators as indicated by the evaluatorCount property, the DriveTime attribute will support edgeDirection0, sourceName0, evaluatorType0, data0, edgeDirection1, sourceName1, evaluatorType1, and data1 properties.

Similarly, for a given network attribute, parameterNameX, parameterTypeX, and parameterDefaultValueX are dynamic properties where X indicates a particular parameter. The possible range of values for X depends on the parameterCount property. For example, if a network attribute named DriveTime has two parameters as indicated by the parameterCount property, the DriveTime attribute will support parameterName0, parameterType0, parameterDefaultValue0, parameterName1, parameterType1,and parameterDefaultValue1 properties.

The default value for the parameter.

parameterDefaultValueX is a dynamic property that is supported only if the parameterCount value is greater than 0. The data type of the returned value depends on the data type of the attribute parameter.

Variant
parameterNameX

The name of the parameter.

parameterNameX is a dynamic property that is supported only if the parameterCount value is greater than 0.

String
parameterTypeX
(Lecture seule)

The data type for the parameter.

parameterTypeX is a dynamic property that is supported only if the parameterCount value is greater than 0.
