I posted this yesterday in the ArcServer general forum, but added a few silverlight specific questions to it.
Hi,
I'm having a tough time creating a simple geoprocessing service that only uses the "Create Random Points" tool. What do I use for my "output location"? I tried to follow the buffer point example in the documentation, but it won't let me use %scratchworkspace%. My best theory is that the buffer point example asks for one field as the output that includes the location and filename, however the create random points tool separates out the "output location" and the "output point feature class".
I'm looking to create a service that is executed when a user presses a button that then creates a bunch of points contained in a predefined area (a shapefile stored on the server) and displays them on my map. I'm using C# and the Silverlight api if that helps.
Once I do create the points, how can I dynamically add them to my map using the silverlight api? Do I just have to make a graphic layer and retrieve the XYs from the newly created data to populate the layer? Is there any way to dynamically add data located on the server itself?
Thanks,
