GetSplinePts Method (ICurve)

Gets the spline points for this curve.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetSplinePts( _
   ByVal ParamsArrayIn As System.Object _
) As System.Object
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICurve
Dim ParamsArrayIn As System.Object
Dim value As System.Object
 
value = instance.GetSplinePts(ParamsArrayIn)
C# 
System.object GetSplinePts( 
   System.object ParamsArrayIn
)
C++/CLI 
System.Object^ GetSplinePts( 
&   System.Object^ ParamsArrayIn
) 

Parameters

ParamsArrayIn
Array containing the definition of the spline

Return Value

Array containing the spline points

Example

Remarks

For OLE Automation applications, the ParamsIn argument contains an array defining the spline. This array contains the values for propArray, knotsArray and cntrlPntCoordArray, all packed into a single array (propArray is packed as four integers into the first two elements of the array.) The contents of these arrays is described in ICurve::IGetSplinePtsSize.

The array returned contains the x, y, z location of the spline points:

[ x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2,....]

Data passed into this method must satisfy the following requirements:

  • If the curve is periodic, it must not have any repeated knots.
  • If the curve is non-periodic, it must only have repeated knots at its ends.
  • The curve must be cubic or lower degree, non-rational, and have continuous first
    and second derivatives.

NOTE: For a linear or quadratic curve to satisfy these continuity requirements, it must consist of a single segment.
