When I create a feature cache in ArcMap, does this include features from layers that are invisible? Including either features from layers that are turned off or features from layers that are scale suppressed? Looked though the help and I can't find info on this. Thx, Ed

Hello - Have got a program that tries to perform a "Find Connected" trace on a network starting on a edge on which an edge flag has been placed and bounded by a set of edge barriers. It consistently fails at this line: tfs.FindFlowElements(esriFlowMethod.esriFMConnected, edgeElements, out junctionEIDs, out edgeEIDs); With this error message: + $exception {"Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."} System.Exception {System.AccessViolationException} where tfs is a ITraceFlowSolverGEN Barriers are set on edges where an intersection is found between a selected polygon graphic and a line feature and the origin flag is set on the longest line feature found inside the polygon. The method where the trace is attempted is "ExecuteTrace." The full C# class is attached. I should also say that on occasion the trace has not failed, however its returned results that are the inverse of what I expected -- that is, everything OUTSIDE the polygon is traced when I thought everything INSIDE the polygon would be. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Ed

Here's the scenario I think I'm seeing, but its very hard to reproduce so I thought I'd ask the question. 1. On reconcile I'm informed of conflicts. 2. I resolve an update-update conflict on a record that has a relationship to a feature in another class. 3. It appears that additional conflicts arise (update-delete conflicts) arise in the related feature class. This is occurring through a semi-automated process, so I don't have the conflict window available to see exactly what has happened. Just trying to understand if the above scenario is possible. Thanks for any info at all. Ed

Anyone have experience with the ArcMap Raster Editor add-in that can be downloaded from SourceForge.net? Thanks, Ed

Greg - Thanks much. I should have did this test myself but didn't think of it. Glad you did! Ed

Hello - I've been dealing with a few cases where a non-printable ASCII character, such as "ENQ" (ASCII 005), have gotten into my data from a load from another source. These can cause problems with interfaces so we're trying to eliminate them from the current data. My question is this. We don't want such characters to be added by users editing the data going forward. I know that the "ENQ" character can be added in Notepad++ by typing ctrl+E, and that typing ctrl+E in a field in the ArcMap Attribute Editor results in no character added -- which is good. I just cannot find definitive documentation that non-printable characters cannot be added by a user into a field using ArcMap. Is this the case? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Ed

OK, in this case I found I had inadvertently assigned a subtype to the AncillaryRole field on a point feature class. There should have been no subtype. Also, all values in this field were blank. Removing the subtype assignment allowed the network build to complete successfully. There used to be an error message when null subtype values were found. Anyway, this was my problem. Ed

Now, unfortunately, this issue has re-surfaced. I've had to drop and re-create the network on this database and I'm getting the original error -- even with the undo_retention parameter set to 150000. I re-executed the SQL and found that the optimal value was now at about 278000 so I reset undo_retention to 300000. Same error results. Now I'm going to try two things: 1. Return the parameter to its original setting - 900 2. Contact ESRI tech support Ed

Forgot to mention another, probably somewhat unique aspect of this environment. I'm running ArcGIS 10.2.1. However, prior to installing this version I had installed 10.2.2. When I found that a partner's solution expected only 10.2.1 I un-installed 10.2.2 and re-installed 10.2.1. Wondering if something in the un-install and re-install left aspects of the topology engine confused. Ed

Yep. Quite sure. Was working with it up to the point of the crash. I really, really appreciate your help with this. Am thinking restoring from backup will be the best course as well. Thanks again, Ed

Tried, and it errored in the feature class Export process with the message "Cannot create output <feature class>" Sure looks like the Feature Dataset definition is corrupted in some way and the feature classes can't get a reference back to get their spatial reference. Ed

My next step would be to re-load this database from back-up, so deleting rows from the LOCKS tables is OK with me. So it did. However, when connecting to ArcCatalog I appear to be in the same boat. Classes in the "corrupt" database still error on opening with the message "Failed to process XML..." Feature classes in other datasets behave OK. Ed

Clicking on the "Locks" tab actually throws the error message "Failed to process XML data, possibly due to data corruption". On dismissing the error message the list is empty -- if that means anything.

I did the shutdown and start-up (through I usually do this through the Sevices applet) so it took me a bit. Queries returned the same results as before. Ed

Here are the query results: SQL> select * from sde.table_locks; SDE_ID REGISTRATION_ID L LOCK_TIME ---------- --------------- - --------- 447312 162 S 08-MAY-14 447312 163 S 08-MAY-14 447312 164 S 08-MAY-14 447312 165 S 08-MAY-14 447312 166 S 08-MAY-14 447312 167 S 08-MAY-14 447312 168 S 08-MAY-14 447312 169 S 08-MAY-14 447312 170 S 08-MAY-14 447312 171 S 08-MAY-14 447312 172 S 08-MAY-14 <Many more rows> 110 rows selected.
