# Author: ESRI # Date: July 5, 2010 # Version: ArcGIS 10.0 # Summary: This script will add a layer file into a map document. The script # must be run from within ArcMap because it references the CURRENT # map document. The purpose of the script is to create a user # friendly tool that allows users to simply add a layer from a list # of existing layer files all stored in a common location. A validation # script is used to automatically populate two of the parameters. # The parameters are: # 1) Browse to a folder that contains layer files. This could be # hard coded within the validation script eliminating the need # for entering this parameter. # 2) Select a layer file from the list. This is auto populated # using a validation script. # 3) Select a data frame. This is also auto populated using a # validation script. # 4) Select one of 3 placement positions. # # Note: This script tool will only work if background processing is disabled. # because CURRENT is being used. # Note: To run the script from ArcMap either run the script tool from the # Catalog window from within ArcMap or add the script tool into the UI # via the customize dialog box [Geoprocessing Tools]. import arcpy import shlex, subprocess #Helper for executing an external shell-scrip or programm def executeCommand(command): success = False try: args = shlex.split(command) p = subprocess.Popen(args) p.wait() returnCode = p.returncode if (returnCode == 0): success = True else: print "Subproccess terminates with %s.
