IQueryFilter2 Interface

Provides access to members that return and modify the output spatial resolution.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

IQueryFilter2 adds the SpatialResolution method to the IQueryFilter interface. The IQueryFilter2 interface allows the specification of the desired spatial resolution as part of the query. It can be used a filter criteria for data sources that support the filtering of feature data based on spatial resolution. Features whose geometry extent is smaller than the specified spatial resolution will not be returned.

Members

	Name	Description
	AddField	Appends a single field name to the list of sub-fields.
	OutputSpatialReference	The spatial reference in which to output geometry for a given field.
	SpatialResolution	The spatial resolution in which to output geometry.
	SubFields	The comma delimited list of field names for the filter.
	WhereClause	The where clause for the filter.

Inherited Interfaces

Interfaces	Description
IQueryFilter	Provides access to members that filter data based on attribute values and or relationships.

[C#]

    public void IQueryFilter_SpatialResolution(IFeatureClass featureClass)
    {
        IQueryFilter2 queryFilter2 = new QueryFilterClass();

        //there is no with statement in C#
        queryFilter2.WhereClause = "STATE_NAME = 'California'";
        queryFilter2.SpatialResolution = 500;

        //Using a query filter to search a feature class:
        IFeatureCursor featureCursor = featureClass.Search(queryFilter2, false);
    }
