Can't get the coded values of domain through a feature layer.

Question

Hi,

I created a feature layer and associated it with a featureDataGrid for attributes edit. One field (field type is text) in this feature layer has domain setting with several coded values. But I can't get the domain values show in the field of this featureDataGrid. And I debug and find that the number of the coded values in this domain setting of the feature layer's field is 0 while debugging. It seems that the domain info is not passed corrected through feature layer.

BTW, by setting up the domain, I can see this domain setting in ArcMap while started editing.

Thanks for your input in advance,

Wei

Thanks, Jennifer. I resolved this issue. It's really good to know that I can monitor the domain coded values in the REST service URL. I just forgot to restart the service after I changed the domain setting.

Have a great afternoon.

WeiWhen you visit the FeatureLayer URL from your web browser, do you see coded values similar to this? http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/HomelandSecurity/operations/FeatureServer/2

If it is empty there too, then maybe the issue is with your service. I think these are the steps you do for creating a coded value domain: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Creating_a_new_coded_value_domain/001s00000004000000/

Thanks, Jennifer. However, in debug mode by your code method, I can see that domain is assigned to the right field, but there is no codedvalue in this domain.

BTW, do I must create a subtype and then assign this domain to the field? Currently, I don't use subtype for my SDE feature class.

Thanks again,
