Imports data into the workspace.
[Visual Basic .NET] Public Sub ImportData ( _ ByVal pData As IGDSData, _ ByVal fmt As esriGDSImportFormat _ )
[C#] public void ImportData ( IGDSData pData, esriGDSImportFormat fmt );
[C++]
HRESULT ImportData(
IGDSData* pData,
esriGDSImportFormat fmt
);
[C++]
Parameters pData [in]
pData is a parameter of type IGDSData* fmt [in]
fmt is a parameter of type esriGDSImportFormat
The ImportData method imports data into the geodatabase referenced by the GeoDataServer. The pData parameter takes a GDSData object which defines the data to import. The fmt parameter specifies the format of the data.
The data to import may be a XML workspace document or a FileGDB transport file generated from the IGeoDataServer::CreateReplica command. The process of importing these files completes the replica creation process and add a new child replica to the geodatabase.
The data may also be from a personal geodatabase, file geodatabase or an XML workspace document generated outside the context of replication. The IGeoDataServer::ExtractData method, for example, can also be used to generate these files. In these cases, the data is simply copied to the geodatabase.
The How to create a replica in a disconnected environment topic describes how to use this method to complete replica creation in a disconnected environment.
