How to Get Geometry Type of a Feature Layer

[Nadeera_RukshanMemmenda_Arachc]

Hi,

I created a feature layer and tried to get the geometry type of that layer. But this doesn't work. I need this to define a selection symbol depending on the geometry type.

featureLayer = new esri.layers.FeatureLayer(layerListArray[0], layerOptions);

featureLayer.geometryType; (This doesn't work)

featureLayer.setSelectionSymbol(markerSymbol);
map.addLayer(featureLayer);

Need a help...

Hi,

Actually

FeatureLayer.geometryType 

should work but if that doesn't work also then when the layer get added to map you can get geometry type of feature layer .Suppose the feature layer Id is Layer1 then use this

map._layers["Layer1"].geometryType

.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Now I understood that, map should be fully loaded to get the geometry type of a layer. So, when i call FeatureLayer.geometryType inside layer-add-result event. it works fine.
