Remarks

The DatasetSupported method returns a boolean value indicating whether the workspace supports the dataset type specified by the Type parameter.  Use this method to determine if you can work with datasets for specific releases of the geodatabase.  Please note that the capabilities of datasets may change between releases of the Geodatabase.  The DatasetSupported method will only indicate whether a type of dataset is supported for the given workspace; it will not indicate whether an instance of a dataset type is supported.

Some dataset types are not supported by this method:

• esriDTAll
• esriDTCadDrawing
• esriDTContainer
• esriDTGeo
• esriDTPlanarGraph
• esriDTTin
