BC MOEP Writer Feature Type Parameters
To access feature type parameters, click the gear icon on a feature type in the workspace to open the Feature Type Parameter Editor. To always display the editor in Workbench, you can select View > Windows > Parameter Editor.
General
All feature types share similar General parameters, which may include the Feature Type Name, Reader or Writer Name, and Geometry.
In most Writer Feature Type parameter dialogs, you can also control Dynamic Schema Definitions. Some database formats accept a Table Qualifier prefix on the output table feature type.
See Editing Writer Feature Types for more information.
These parameters apply only to a selected feature type, not to the entire writer.
Tip: If a feature type parameter listed here conflicts with a writer-level parameter, then the writer parameter will be ignored and this feature type parameter will be used.
File
Name of physical file within MOEP dataset. The default is the feature type name with .bin appended.
An integer in the range 0..9 denoting the type of data this file contains. The default is 0.
Advanced
This optional attribute must be set to either Yes or No (default). If it is Yes, a type 5 attribute record is written with each feature, even if it is empty.
The MOEP writer uses this optional value to determine the origin from which 16-bit (X,Y) coordinates are measured.
As features are written to the MOEP file, their minimum bounding rectangle is maintained; once the MBR is larger than MOEP_OFFSET_MINIMUM in both the X and Y directions, its center point is chosen as the origin for all coordinates written to the file. This attribute has no effect on 32-bit coordinates, which are always measured from (0,0).
There is no set default value.
An ASCII string 0 to 11 characters in length, providing a logical name for the file. This is stored in the file’s header; it typically contains a mapsheet ID. The default is the feature type name.
The date of submission of the MOEP file. The format for this date is YYMMDD, where YY is the last two digits of the year, MM is the month (01-12), and DD is the day within the month (01-31).
There is no set default value.
The size of integer used to represent each X and Y coordinate value within the MOEP file. This can be either 16 or 32 (default), indicating 16-bit or 32-bit integers, respectively.
Z coordinates are always 16 bits, regardless of this attribute’s value.
