Protected memory issue while modifying shapefile data

Question

Hi, There are around 50k records in a shapefile feature class. I am using following code block to modify the features. private async Task UpdateData(FeatureLayer layer) { using (FeatureClass oInFC = layer.GetFeatureClass()) { var featCursor = oInFC.Search(null, false); EditOperation editOperation = new EditOperation(); editOperation.Callback(context => { while (featCursor.MoveNext()) { var feat = featCursor.Current; //Modify feature attributes feat.Store(); context.Invalidate(feat); } }, oInFC); try { var result = await editOperation.ExecuteAsync(); if (!result) { throw new Exception(editOperation.ErrorMessage); } } catch(Exception ex) { //Handle Exception } } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ I see a protected memory access violation exception randomly. Any idea why this might be occurring ? Thanks, Sai

Hi Sai,

ArcGIS Pro SDK recommends use of 'using' when you work with database objects. It will manage object life cycle.

Try change your code like this:

using (var feat = featCursor.Current)

{

//Modify feature attributes
                        feat.Store();
                        context.Invalidate(feat);

}
