How to download the GP executed result?

[weiliang]

Hi,

I want to build a GP service to allow the end user zip several selected shapefile on the fly and download the zip file afterwards. The problem is that what the Parameters should I reference the OutPut parameter to in the ArcToolBox property tab??a Record Set??Also, after GP service execution, the result in the code is a GPParameter object, but what will be the exact object type for the GP output in C# code?  How can I link the result object in C# to a hyperlink button or how to automatically popup a download dialog box when the zip file is ready?

Thanks,

Wei

Thanks for your reply, Dominique. However, the thread you mentioned doesn't answer my question. What I want is after zip file returned from GP service in C#, how can I use this returned zip object and link it to a hyperlink button? Also, which OutPut Parameter type should I use in the ArcToolBox property tab?

The output parameter in toolbox should be set to data type File.

Once the output is of type GPDataFile.

You can have the following XAML-code:

        <HyperlinkButton x:Name="link" Content="{Binding Name}" 
                         NavigateUri="{Binding Url}"
                         VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>

link.DataContext = gpParameter as GPDataFile;
