Number of features

Return Value

  • in-process, unmanaged C++: Pointer to an array of IFeature objects
  • VBA, VB.NET, C#, and C++/CLI: Not supported

    See In-process Methods for details about this type of method.

  • Remarks

    Call IFeatureManager::GetFeatureCount before calling this method to get the size for the array of features.

     

    If TopLevelOnly is false, then this method gets all of the feature and child features in this document.  It does not get features in components.

     

    The features that are returned by this method can be in any order. You should not rely on the order to indicate anything about children or parents. If hierarchy and order information is needed, then use IPartDoc::FirstFeature or IPartDoc::IFirstFeature or IModelDoc2::FirstFeature or IModelDoc2::FirstFeatureIFeature::GetNextFeature or IFeatureIGetNextFeature, IFeature::GetFirstSubFeature or IFeature::IGetFirstSubFeature, and IFeature::GetNextSubFeature or IFeature::IGetNextSubFeature to retrieve your information.
