IFormatData Interface

Provides access to members that provide access to information about specific raster formats.

Description

The Creatable property indicates whether or not new raster datasets inthis format can be created. Consult the help for a list of creatable raster formats.

The Directory property returns whether raster datasets in this format are directory-based (like GRID) or file-based.

The Pseudo property determines whether the file extension can be reliably used to detect raster datasets of this format. Any format that has Pseudo set to True will not be viewable in ArcGIS.

The format name and default extension, if any, associated with the format and the title of the format in the ArcMap and ArcCatalog interface are also accessible through this interface.
