IDatasetContainer2 Interface

Provides access to members that return datasets by name, ID and index.

Members

	Name	Description
	AddDataset	Adds a dataset to the dataset collection.
	CreateDataset	Given a data element, create a dataset in this container.
	Dataset	The dataset associated with the specified index value and dataset type.
	DatasetByName	The dataset of the specified type with the specified name.
	DatasetCount	The number of datasets of the specified type in this container.
	DatasetNames	The names of all the datasets with the specified type.
	Datasets	An enumerator over the datasets of the specified type.
	DatasetTypes	The names of all the datasets with the specified type.

IDatasetContainer2.CreateDataset Method

Given a data element, create a dataset in this container.

Public Function CreateDataset ( _
    ByVal DataElement As IDEDataset _
) As IDataset

public IDataset CreateDataset (
    IDEDataset DataElement
);

Remarks

The CreateDataset method will create a dataset given a populated data element. Use the DatasetTypes property to determine the supported dataset types.

IDatasetContainer2.Dataset Property

The dataset associated with the specified index value and dataset type.

Public Function get_Dataset ( _
    ByVal Type As esriDatasetType, _
    ByVal Index As Integer _
) As IDataset

public IDataset get_Dataset (
    esriDatasetType Type,
    int Index
);

Remarks

The Dataset property returns the dataset of the specified index value and dataset type.

IDatasetContainer2.DatasetByName Property

The dataset of the specified type with the specified name.

Public Function get_DatasetByName ( _
    ByVal Type As esriDatasetType, _
    ByVal Name As String _
) As IDataset

public IDataset get_DatasetByName (
    esriDatasetType Type,
    string Name
);

Remarks

The DatasetByName property returns the dataset of the specified type with the specified name.

IDatasetContainer2.DatasetCount Property

The number of datasets of the specified type in this container.

Public Function get_DatasetCount ( _
    ByVal Type As esriDatasetType _
) As Integer

public int get_DatasetCount (
    esriDatasetType Type
);

Remarks

The DatasetCount property returns the number of datasets of the specified type in this container.

IDatasetContainer2.DatasetNames Property

The names of all the datasets with the specified type.

Public Function get_DatasetNames ( _
    ByVal Type As esriDatasetType _
) As IEnumDatasetName

public IEnumDatasetName get_DatasetNames (
    esriDatasetType Type
);

Remarks

The DatasetNames property returns an enumerator of IDatasetNames over the datasets of the specified type.

IDatasetContainer2.Datasets Property

An enumerator over the datasets of the specified type.

Public Function get_Datasets ( _
    ByVal Type As esriDatasetType _
) As IEnumDataset

public IEnumDataset get_Datasets (
    esriDatasetType Type
);

Remarks

The Datasets property returns an enumerator over the datasets of the specified type.

IDatasetContainer2.DatasetTypes Property

The names of all the datasets with the specified type.

Public ReadOnly Property DatasetTypes As IEnumDatasetType

public IEnumDatasetType DatasetTypes {get;}

Remarks

The DatasetTypes property returns an enumerator of IEnumDatasetType containing the supported esriDatasetTypes for the container. Use this method to determine the supported datasets for the container.
