ArcEngine中对已经存在的数据表格添加字段

下例中是对mapControl中当前地图添加“name_city”字段，主要用到IField,IFieldEdit,ITable(IClass),IFeatureLayer,IFeatureClass,IFeature字段，其中IField,IFieldEdit是创建新的字段“name_city”，每个要素的“name_city”字段存储的都是“city_name”。

注意：在调用AddField方法时，利用ITable或者IClass，而不能使用IFieldsEdit，参考AE的帮助文档：

The IFieldsEdit interface is used when creating a fields collection. You cannot use it to insert or delete a field from a fields collection belonging to an existing table. To add a field to an existing object class, use the IClass::AddField method.  To remove a field from an existing object class, use the IClass::DeleteField method.

从上面，我们知道IFieldsEdit 在创建新的数据表格时起作用，而要插入或者删除当前已经存在的数据表时，利用IClass。ITable继承于IClass，因此也可以使用ITable。

//new a field and add to the first layer in the map //new a field: "name_cit", type:string IField pField = new FieldClass(); IFieldEdit pFieldEdit = pField as IFieldEdit; pFieldEdit.Name_2 = "name_city"; pFieldEdit.Type_2 = esriFieldType.esriFieldTypeString; //achieve the first layer in the map IFeatureLayer pFeatureLayer = axMapControl1.Map.get_Layer(0) as IFeatureLayer; IFeatureClass pFeatureClass = pFeatureLayer.FeatureClass; IClass pTable = pFeatureClass as IClass; //use ITable or IClass pTable.AddField(pFieldEdit); //set values of every feature's field-"name_cit" in the first layer for (int i = 0; i < pFeatureClass.FeatureCount(null); i++) { IFeature pFeature = pFeatureClass.GetFeature(i); pFeature.set_Value(pFeature.Fields.FindField("name_city"), "city_name"); pFeature.Store(); }
