Note: This topic was updated for 9.3.1.

Lists all toolboxes. Specifying search conditions (wildcard) limits the results.

Returns a Python List that will contain the names of the toolboxes

NOTE: The content below describes the use of ListToolboxes using a 9.3-version geoprocessor. When using a 9.2-version geoprocessor, ListToolboxes returns an enumeration instead of a Python List. For more information, see Differences between geoprocessor versions.



Syntax


object.ListToolboxes({wildCard} As String) As Python List

{} = optional

Part Description
object The instantiated geoprocessing object.
wildCard Optional. Combination of * and characters that helps to limit the results. The asterisk is the same as saying ALL. If no wildcard is specified, all toolboxes will be returned.


Examples


This script lists all the environments and prints their usage to the Python interactive window.

import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create(9.3)

toolboxes = gp.ListToolboxes()

for toolbox in toolboxes:
    print toolbox
