IGetSymArcs Method (IEnvironment)

Obsolete. Superseded by IEnvironment::GetSymArcs2.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function IGetSymArcs( _
   ByVal SymId As System.String _
) As System.Double
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IEnvironment
Dim SymId As System.String
Dim value As System.Double
 
value = instance.IGetSymArcs(SymId)
C# 
System.double IGetSymArcs( 
   System.string SymId
)
C++/CLI 
System.double IGetSymArcs( 
&   System.String^ SymId
) 

Parameters

SymId

Name of the geometric tolerance symbol formatted as:

<LibraryName-SymbolName>

where LibraryName and SymbolName are in the SOLIDWORKS text file C:\ProgramData\SolidWorks\SolidWorks 20nn\lang\english\gtol.sym.

NOTE: You must include the right- and left-angle brackets and separate LibraryName and SymbolName with a hyphen; for example, <MOD-DEG>.

Return Value

  • in-process, unmanaged C++: Pointer to an array of doubles (see Remarks)
  • VBA, VB.NET, C#, and C++/CLI: Not supported

    See In-process Methods for details about this type of method.

  • Remarks

    Each arc in the symbol is defined by three points (center, arc start, and end). The size of the array returned is based on the number of arcs within this geometric tolerance symbol. You can determine this number using the return value arc count from IEnvironment::IGetSymEdgeCounts.

    The format of return value is the following array of doubles (in this example, for the ith arc):

    retval[9 * i + 0] = x coordinate of center point

    retval[9 * i + 1] = y coordinate of center point

    retval[9 * i + 2] = z coordinate of center point

     

    retval[9 * i + 3] = x coordinate of arc start point

    retval[9 * i + 4] = y coordinate of arc start point

    retval[9 * i + 5] = z coordinate of arc start point

     

    retval[9 * i + 6] = x coordinate of arc end point

    retval[9 * i + 7] = y coordinate of arc end point

    retval[9 * i + 8] = z coordinate of arc end point
