Detailed Description

Vector library - constraints for reading features.

Higher level functions for reading/writing/manipulating vectors.

These routines can affect the Vect_read_next_line() functions by restricting what they return. They are applied on a per map basis.

These do not affect the lower level direct read functions.

Normally, all 'Alive' lines will be returned unless overridden by this function. You can specified all the types you are interested in (by oring their types together). You can use this to say exclude 'boundary' type features.

By default all DEAD lines are ignored by the Vect_read_next_line() functions. This too can be overridden by including their types.

Function Documentation

Vect_get_constraint_box()

int Vect_get_constraint_box	(	struct Map_info *	Map,
		struct bound_box *	Box
	)

Get constraint box.

Constraint box can be defined by Vect_set_constraint_region().

Parameters

	Map	vector map
[out]	Box	bounding box

Returns

0 on success

-1 no region constraint defined

Vect_remove_constraints()

void Vect_remove_constraints

(

struct Map_info *

Map

)

Remove all constraints.

Parameters

Map	pointer to Map_info struct

Definition at line 122 of file constraint.c.

References Map_info::constraint, FALSE, Map_info::field_flag, Map_info::region_flag, and Map_info::type_flag.

Vect_set_constraint_field()

int Vect_set_constraint_field	(	struct Map_info *	Map,
		int	field
	)

Set constraint field.

Vect_read_next_line() will read only features of given type. Note that categories must be read otherwise this constraint is ignored. Constraint is ignored for random access - Vect_read_line().

Ignored for non-native vector formats.

Note: Field is called layer on user level.

Parameters

Map	pointer to Map_info struct
field	field number (-1 for all fields)

Returns

0 on success

-1 invalid field

Definition at line 147 of file constraint.c.

Vect_set_constraint_region()

int Vect_set_constraint_region	(	struct Map_info *	Map,
		double	n,
		double	s,
		double	e,
		double	w,
		double	t,
		double	b
	)

Set constraint region.

Vect_read_next_line() will read only features inside of given region or features with overlapping bounding box.

Note

Constraint is ignored for random access - Vect_read_line().

Parameters

Map	pointer to Map_info struct
n,s,e,w,t,b	bbox definition (north, south, east, west, top, and bottom coordinates)

Returns

0 on success

-1 on error (invalid region)

Definition at line 48 of file constraint.c.

Vect_set_constraint_type()

int Vect_set_constraint_type	(	struct Map_info *	Map,
		int	type
	)

Set constraint type.

Vect_read_next_line() will read only features of given type. Constraint is ignored for random access - Vect_read_line().

Parameters

Map	pointer to Map_info struct
type	constraint feature type (GV_POINT, GV_LINE, ...)

Returns

0 on success

-1 invalid feature type
