Exporting GLOBALID

SurajJha1 — Thu, 30 Aug 2018 07:23:41 GMT

I am using Arcobjects and exporting feature class using FeatureClassTOGeodatabase tool. It would be grateful if any one can help me to know how i can export GlobalID using this tool.

Thanks

Checking the environment settings for arcmap/pro tools reveals that

Feature Class to Feature Class—Conversion toolbox | ArcGIS Desktop supports global ids

Environments

Current Workspace, ... snip......Preserve Global IDs

Whereas this doesn't

Feature Class To Geodatabase—Conversion toolbox | ArcGIS Desktop

Thanks for your suggestion. I will definitely give it a try. Is there a way through which i can set environment PreserverGlobalIDs to true using ArcObjects? I know we can do this using ArcPy.

preserving globalids can be set only for those tools that support it otherwise it has no affect. I know of no approach to set something that isn't supported. arcpy is just wrappers (largely) around arcobjects.

If you have an arcpy example that demonstrates how you can set it or override it in FeatureClassToGeodatabase that would be interesting

I basically need arcpy.env.preserveGlobalIds = True equivalent in arcobjects
