ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Extensibility.FieldSettings

PietaSwanepoel2 — Mon, 07 Jan 2013 06:09:18 GMT

Does anybody have a code example of how to reference the DisplayName (Alias) property for a field as defined by the application builder? Know it can be accessed through the ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Extensibility.FieldSettings class but I don't know how to reference it in code.

I can get the alias name defined in the database but this might differ from the value set in the application builder. Also need to know if field is visible or not. I am trying to populate a combobox with only the visible fields for a table using the alias values.

Thank you

I would also need to know how to use FieldSettings. I need to get the field aliases defined by the user in the viewer.

Does anyone have any input on this?

Thanks!

You can look at the code I posted in

Functionality is hard-coded. Couldn't find another solution for it

Here is what I did to solve this problem. I Downloaded the mapconfig.xml using the WebClient class and then used LINQ to read the XML.
