Upolygon

Conversion functions upolygon

syntax

• upolygon(a)

definition

upolygon(a) converts the coordinates of a point item a with a sequence of points (Arc or Polygon) to the upoint (uint32 coordinates) Value type.

Since GeoDms 20.15.1 the result keeps the composition type of its argument: polygon stays polygon, arc stays arc, multipoint stays multipoint (as Convert does since 20.3.0, issue 1038). In earlier versions the result was always treated as arc, so casting a polygon Data item made polygon-consuming operators such as bp_union_polygon warn about arc geometry.

applies to

• Data item with Point value type and composition type arc or polygon

example

attribute<upoint> upolygonA (SDomain, polygon) := upolygon(A);

A(fpolygon)	upolygonA
{2:xy(0; 0),xy(1; 1)}	{2:xy(0; 0),xy(1; 1)}
{3: {1E+007,1E+007},{-2.5,-2.5},{99.9,99.9}}	{3: xy(9999999; 9999999),{null,null},xy(99; 99)}
