I am trying to access the messages that were logged throughout a script. arcpy.AddMessage("Something...") message = arcpy.GetMessages() print message  # always empty The above is always empty. According to the documentation [http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/AddMessage/018v00000007000000/] Creates a geoprocessing informative message (Severity=0) that can be accessed with any of the GetMessages functions. What am I missing here? I'm starting to think this is either a bug or something not documented. ... View more

Hi, I am trying to bind to the LegendItemViewModel.Description property but the value never shows up or defaults to the Map Services description. Yet all the other property values exists. <DataTemplate x:Key="LayerTemplate">         <StackPanel  Margin="0,-1" Orientation="Horizontal" >             <ToolTipService.ToolTip>                 <StackPanel MaxWidth="400">      <TextBlock FontWeight="Bold" Text="{Binding Path=Layer.ID }" TextWrapping="Wrap" />      <TextBlock FontWeight="Bold" Text="{Binding Path=Label}" TextWrapping="Wrap" />      <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Description}" />                     <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=SubLayerID, StringFormat='SubLayer ID : {0}'}" />                 </StackPanel>             </ToolTipService.ToolTip> I debugged where the value gets set in LayerItemViewModel...          internal LayerItemViewModel(Layer layer, LayerLegendInfo layerLegendInfo, string defaultLayerDescription, Map map)    : this(layer)   {    Debug.Assert(layerLegendInfo != null);    Debug.Assert(map != null); // Needed to convert scale to resolution    SubLayerID = layerLegendInfo.SubLayerID;    Label = layerLegendInfo.LayerName;    ParentLabel = layer.DisplayName ?? layer.ID;    LayerType = layerLegendInfo.LayerType;    IsHidden = layerLegendInfo.IsHidden;    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(layerLegendInfo.LayerDescription))     Description = defaultLayerDescription;    else     Description = layerLegendInfo.LayerDescription; and it seems that layerLegendInfo.LayerDescription is always null. I should add that this is a 10.0 service. ... View more

Hi, Our python script library is starting to get large and complex to the point that we are introducing unit testing to keep problems manageable. Has anyone had any experience creating Unit Tests for their python. How did you mock ArcGIS objects? Thanks ... View more

Hi, I was wondering if there is any functionality (preferable client side) to check a ring / polygon for correct geometry, specifically the ring vertices direction. Reason why is I'm using Kml files and Google Earth likes to create rings opposite way of ESRI's format. I've already built in the ability to reverse the direction but I would prefer to check the direction first before reversing the vertices. ... View more
