Geoprocessor - C# - Create empty feature class using template for attribute fields

Hello,

I am using the ArcObjects SDK - C# and geoprocessor to create an empty polyline featureclass in a file geodatabase. This feature class will use an existing feature class in the file geodatabase as a template for its' fields.

I can get this to work ok using Python, however when I run my C#/ArcObjects code the required fields are not being created from the template. The output created only has the default featureclass attributes - OBJECTID, Shape and Shape_Length.

Can anyone point out where I am going wrong? I think I have used the correct syntax ok from ArcGIS Geoprocessing help. The code is shown below. Any help would be much appreciated to solve a frustrating problem!

Kind Regards
