Fields of Feature Layer

PaulSchneider

I an trying to add the fields of a feature layer to a combo box and am running into what seems like a silly simple problem. I have created the FeatureLayer object but when I try to access the fields I get nothing. Below is my code:

var fLayer:FeatureLayer = new FeatureLayer("http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/SanFrancisco/311Incidents/MapServer/1");

if (fLayer)
{
[INDENT]var fldArr:Array = fLayer.layerDetails.fields;
Alert.show(fldArr.toString()); //....NOTHING!!....

/* if working... do this...
var fldAL:ArrayList = new ArrayList(fldArr);
cboField.dataProvider = fldAL;
*/[/INDENT]
}

Any thoughts?

life Esri,

You need to use

import mx.utils.ObjectUtil;
Alert.show(ObjectUtil.toString(fldArr));

thank you but still nothing ..

You need to wait for the feature layer to load before you can access the fields. So you need to add a LayerEvent.LOAD listener to fLayer.

Also if you want to get the field names, you need to loop through each field and push the name value to the array.

It looks like you are trying to get the fields from a table, not a feature layer. The layer with an index of 1 is a table, try using the layer with an index of 0 instead.

Still nothing...

If you do want to get the fields from the table with index 1, then you need to use fLayer.tableDetails.fields instead of fLayer.layerDetails.fields.
