InsertGeometries Method

Inserts the given list of geometries before the specified index. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public void InsertGeometries( 
   int index,
   IEnumerable<Geometry> geometries
)

Public Sub InsertGeometries( _
   ByVal index As Integer, _
   ByVal geometries As IEnumerable(Of Geometry) _
)

Parameters

index: 0 based index. Specify 0 to insert at the beginning. Specify CountGeometries or -1 to insert at the end.
geometries: The geometry to insert.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
ArcGIS.Core.CalledOnWrongThreadException	This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.
System.ArgumentNullException	geometries is null.
System.ArgumentNullException	A geometry in geometries is null. You cannot insert a null geometry into GeometryBag.
System.ArgumentException	A geometry in geometries is GeometryBag. You cannot insert a GeometryBag into another GeometryBag.
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException	index must be less than the number of geometries in the builder or equal to -1.

Remarks

Specifying -1 for the index is equivalent to AddGeometries.

An Envelope is converted to a Polygon when it is inserted into a GeometryBag. As a result, when retrieving an Envelope from a GeometryBag, it will be a Polygon.

Example

MapPoint point = MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(10, 20);
List<Coordinate2D> coords = new List<Coordinate2D>() { new Coordinate2D(50, 60), new Coordinate2D(-120, -70), new Coordinate2D(40, 60) };
Multipoint multipoint = MultipointBuilder.CreateMultipoint(coords, SpatialReferences.WebMercator);
Polyline polyline = PolylineBuilder.CreatePolyline(coords);

string json = "{\"rings\":[[[0,0],[0,1],[1,1],[1,0],[0,0]],[[3,0],[3,1],[4,1],[4,0],[3,0]]]}";
Polygon polygon = PolygonBuilder.FromJson(json);

var geometries = new List<Geometry>() { point, multipoint, polyline, polygon };

// Builder constructors need to run on the MCT.
ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework.Threading.Tasks.QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
  using (var builder = new GeometryBagBuilder(SpatialReferences.WGS84))
  {
    // builder.CountGeometries = 0

    builder.AddGeometries(geometries);
    // builder.CountGeometries = 4

    GeometryBag geomBag = builder.ToGeometry();
    // bag.PartCount = 4    (point, multipoint, polyline, polygon)

    geometries = new List<Geometry>() { point, polyline };
    builder.InsertGeometries(1, geometries);
    // builder.CountGeometries = 6
    geomBag = builder.ToGeometry();
    // bag.PartCount = 6    (point, point, polyline, multipoint, polyline, polygon)
  }
});
