LVectorEllipticalArc::LockObject

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LVectorEllipticalArc::LockObject(pEllipticalArc)

Gets the object information of the class object.

Parameters

pVECTORELLIPTICALARC pEllipticalArc

Pointer to a VECTORELLIPTICALARC structure to be updated with the vector object information.

Returns

Value Meaning
SUCCESS The function was successful.
< 1 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function is used to retrieve the object information of the class object.

To use this method, declare a variable of the VECTORELLIPTICALARC type and pass the address to this function. After modifying the vector object settings, call LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject (). LVectorEllipticalArc::LockObject () and LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject () should always be called in pairs.

Before an object has been added to the LVectorBase object, using LVectorBase::AddObject or LVectorLayer::AddObject, LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject () can be used to change ALL properties of an object. However, once the object has been added to the LVectorBase object, some properties cannot be changed using LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject ().However, as long as the number of points does not change, the coordinates of the individual points can always be modified using LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject ().

To change the object information for a class object, call LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject.

LVectorEllipticalArc::LockObject and LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject must be called in pairs.

Note that rotating an object may change the object type. However, not all object types are changed by rotation, and not all rotations result in changing an object type. For example, a rectangle rotated 90 degrees about the z-axis is still a rectangle. A rectangle rotated 45 degrees about the z-axis becomes a polydraw object. The table below indicates object types that may change following rotation and the possible resulting object types.

Original object type Possible object type following rotation
VECTOR_RECTANGLE VECTOR_POLYGON
VECTOR_ELLIPSE VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_CIRCLE VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_ARC VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_ELLIPTICALARC VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_TEXT VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_PIE VECTOR_POLYDRAW

If an object type changes, LVectorEllipticalArc::LockObject and LVectorEllipticalArc::UnlockObject will return WRPERR_VECTOR_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE. Object properties can still be inspected and changed by using LVectorObject::GetObjectAttributes and LVectorObject::SetObjectAttributes.

This example will add an elliptical arc object to the Active Layer LVectorBase object.
