How to load MPK File in Runtime .Net

JimFiddes

I'm digging through examples on how to load a local mpk into my .net map and I don't see how to do this. There are old references to  ArcGISLocalDynamicMapServiceLayer but that isn't available now. The mpk was constructed in ArcMap 10.2 and the layers exist within a GeoDatabase. I am using 10.2.5 build of .Net as well.

If someone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim,

Here is the way to add mpk layer to the map, you just need to use ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer and the ServiceUri will be a LocalMapService.UrlMapService

LocalMapService localMapService = new LocalMapService("mpk file path");

                await localMapService.StartAsync();

                ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer arcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer = new ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer()

                {

                    ID = "arcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer",

                    ServiceUri = localMapService.UrlMapService,

                };

  MyMapView.Map.Layers.Add(arcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer);

And there is a sample for that on GitHub​.  ArcGIS .NET Samples, in Desktop Samples > Layers > Dynamic Service Layer > ArcGIS Local Dynamic Service Layer Sample

Thanks,
