Hi

 

What is the best way to retrieve all records of a layer. Some options I
see is

 

1.       calling queryByRect(mapObj.extents) - But this will not get all
records if map extents are smaller than layer extents

2.       layer.whichShapes() - But this will apply filter set on the
layer. I want to get all records. 

3.       call queryByAttribute() and pass some expression that will
select everything 

 

Or,  is there any more straight forward API to get all records.

 

Thanks

Murty
