How to get selected features on the map for a custom geoprocessing tool

Question

Hello,

I am working on a custom geoprocessing tool that need to obtain the selected feature(s) on a feature in ArcMap.

One of my parameters from IGPFunction2 is IGPFeatureLayer, however, its FIDSet is always null. Is there any way that I can get the selected feature from the this point?

Thanks

Nevermind, I figured it out
if (pGPValue is IGPFeatureLayer)
{
    IFeatureLayer pFeatureLayer = pGPUtilities.DecodeLayer(pGPValue) as IFeatureLayer;
    ISelectionSet pSelectionSet = (pFeatureLayer as IFeatureSelection).SelectionSet;

if (pSelectionSet != null && pSelectionSet.Count > 0)
    {
        IEnumIDs pEnumIDs = pSelectionSet.IDs;

for (int j = 0; j < pSelectionSet.Count; ++j)
        {
            IEnvelope pCurrentExtent = pFeatureLayer.FeatureClass.GetFeature(pEnumIDs.Next()).Extent;

if (pCurrentExtent != null)
            {
                pCurrentExtent.Project(pGeographicCoordinateSystem);
                pInputExtent.Union(pCurrentExtent);
            }
        }
    }
    else
    {
        IQueryFilter pQueryFilter = null;
        int iFeatureCount = pFeatureLayer.FeatureClass.FeatureCount(pQueryFilter);

for (int j = 0; j < iFeatureCount; ++j)
        {
            IEnvelope pCurrentExtent = pFeatureLayer.FeatureClass.GetFeature(j).Extent;

if (pCurrentExtent != null)
            {
                pCurrentExtent.Project(pGeographicCoordinateSystem);
                pInputExtent.Union(pCurrentExtent);
            }
        }
    }
}
