GetTessPts Method (ICurve)

Gets a set of points that represent the tessellation of this curve.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetTessPts( _
   ByVal ChordTolerance As System.Double, _
   ByVal LengthTolerance As System.Double, _
   ByVal StartPoint As System.Object, _
   ByVal EndPoint As System.Object _
) As System.Object
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICurve
Dim ChordTolerance As System.Double
Dim LengthTolerance As System.Double
Dim StartPoint As System.Object
Dim EndPoint As System.Object
Dim value As System.Object
 
value = instance.GetTessPts(ChordTolerance, LengthTolerance, StartPoint, EndPoint)
C# 
System.object GetTessPts( 
   System.double ChordTolerance,
   System.double LengthTolerance,
   System.object StartPoint,
   System.object EndPoint
)
C++/CLI 
System.Object^ GetTessPts( 
&   System.double ChordTolerance,
&   System.double LengthTolerance,
&   System.Object^ StartPoint,
&   System.Object^ EndPoint
) 

Parameters

ChordTolerance

Chord tolerance to use in tessellation (meters); this is the maximum permitted distance from a cord to the curve between the cord endpoints; the smallest allowable value for this parameter is 1E-8; if 0.0 or a value smaller than 1E-8 is specified, then 1E-8 is used by default

LengthTolerance
Length tolerance to be used to filter out very short segments (meters); this method does not return tessellated segments shorter than this value
StartPoint
Array containing the start point of the curve
EndPoint
Array containing the end point of the curve

Return Value

Array of doubles containing the tessellation points (see Remarks)

Example

Remarks

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

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