geoprocessing task with optional parameter

GaryBushek — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:13:45 GMT

I have a geoprocessing task that has an optional parameter of type FeatureSet. Only problem is if I leave that featureset parameter out or set it to null, the task fails with an error "Error Submitting Job". If I Instantiate the featureset parameter but leave the geometry inside it to null I get "Invalid value for parameter '<i>Geom</i>'. This parameter is set as optional and I verified that at the rest endpoint for the geoprocessing service. Any ideas on how to pass (or not pass) an optional featureset parameter?

thanks

Try setting the value to an empty String. e.g. ""

Setting it to an empty string did not work. Any other solution found as on date?

I tried this but it didn't work.

parameters.Add(new GPFeatureRecordSetLayer("Input_Point", ""));
