Create features from ArcGIS Topology errors

For ArcGIS 9x

Export Topology Exceptions

This code will export Topology Error Exceptions to a feature class. This is useful when one needs to archive Exceptions. When the exceptions are exported to the feature class they can be treated just like any other feature (attribute update/notes, identify). Then Export to Shapefile for your other users.

Tip:Create a Button and call InitiateExport from the Click Event

ArcGIS 10.1 for Desktop has a new geoprocessing tool called Export Topology Errors (the tool is mentioned in that ArcGIS Ideas link).

Exports the errors from a geodatabase topology to the target geodatabase. All information associated with the errors and exceptions, such as the features referenced by the error or exception, are exported. Once they are exported, the feature classes can be accessed using any license level of ArcGIS. The feature classes can be used with the Select by Location dialog box or the Select Layer By Location tool and can be shared with other users who do not have access to the topology itself.
