Editing ArcFM field ordering (field index) through code

TriptiGupta — Mon, 20 Feb 2017 05:53:41 GMT

I am trying to edit the field properties through code. The objective is to set the arcfm field order for the main field properties (ie subtype = -1) and the same order for the subtypes also(The order could be taken in as an input from csv file).

(I was able to edit the field properties and save it to the schema using the method

ConfigTopLevel.Instance.SaveFeatureClassToDB(currentFrame.OClass.Obj); method. But this is not working for field order.)

Looking for soemone who has worked on editing Arcfm properties through code and if anybody could help me find a suitable method to set the field order (index) in ArcFM properties.

I highly recommend using Schneiders ArcFM SDK to do any field updates. ArcFM has numerous triggers on the data and if you bypass "their" code it can cause significant problems.

ArcFM also has a Jive page

ArcFM: Welcome |exchange
