ImportShapefile Method

In This Topic

Imports a shapefile (.shp/.dbf files) to the repository and returns the IDs of the created repository items (Item1: .shp File, Item2: .dbf File). Once the file is ready and the metadata objects are prepared, internally the repository's CreateOrUpdateItem method is called to store it into the repository.
