How to load shapefile layer to current map?

Hello,

does anyone have any c # code that can load the shapefile into the current map and add the same reference so that it fits well into the original map?

Thank for any advice

To add a data source to your current active map (or another map) you can use the snippet:

public Task<Layer> AddLayer(string uri) { return QueuedTask.Run(() => { Map map = MapView.Active.Map; return LayerFactory.Instance.CreateLayer(new Uri(uri), map); }); }

and you would call the method like this:

var pathToSource = @"c:\temp\test.shp"; Layer lyr = await AddLayer(pathToSource);

and some examples for pathToSource

FeatureClass inside a FileGeodatabase: C:\Data\MyFileGDB.gdb\Census
A shape file inside a folder: \\Machine\SharedFolder\Census.shp
Raster Dataset inside a FileGeodatabase: C:\Data\MyFileGDB.gdb\DEM
An image file inside a folder: \\Machine\SharedFolder\Imagery.tif
A map service layer: http://sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Demographics/ESRI_Census_USA/MapServer
A feature layer off a map or feature service: http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/NapervilleShelters/FeatureServer/0
A .lprx or .lpkx file: \\Machine\SharedFolder\Fires.lyrx
