KB10418 - Using DK.ActiveX with VB.NET, how to open multiple ADO layers and build a new ADO layer.

  1. The proper way using the ttkls file:
    ll = New XGIS_LayerSQL_ADO
    ll.Path = 'lwaters.ttkls'
    GIS.Add( ll )

    ll = New XGIS_LayerSQL_ADO
    ll.Path = 'lwaters2.ttkls'
    GIS.Add( ll )

    ll = New XGIS_LayerSQL_ADO
    ll.Path = 'lwaters3.ttkls'
    GIS.Add( ll )

  2. The proper way using SQLParams: llSQL = New TatukGIS_DK.XGIS_LayerSQL_ADO()
    llSQL.SQLParameter("LAYER") = "lwaters"
    llSQL.SQLParameter("DIALECT") = "MSJET"
    llSQL.SQLParameter("ADO")= "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=gistest.mdb"
    GIS.Add(llSQL)


    (The above is valid only with the DK v. 8 and later versions.)

  3. The proper way to build a new ADO layer:
    a)
    llNew = New TatukGIS_DK.XGIS_LayerSQL_ADO()
    llNew.Build("lwaters.ttkls", some_extent, TatukGIS_DK.XGIS_ShapeType.XgisShapeTypeArc)


    If you know the desired extent, use the following:

    Utils = New XGIS_Utils
    some_extent = Utils.GisNoWorld ;


    b) (Valid in the DK 8)

    lSQL = New TatukGIS_DK.XGIS_LayerSQL_ADO()
    llSQL.SQLParameter("LAYER") = "lwaters"
    llSQL.SQLParameter("DIALECT") = "MSJET"
    llSQL.SQLParameter("ADO") = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=gistest.mdb"
    llSQL.Build( "", some_extent, TatukGIS_DK.XGIS_ShapeType.XgisShapeTypeArc)
