Method Detail

queryCoords

void queryCoords(IPoint[] controlPoints)
                 throws IOException,
                        AutomationException

Parameters:

controlPoints - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geometry.IPoint array (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

putCoords

void putCoords(IPoint[] controlPoints)
               throws IOException,
                      AutomationException

Sets this Bezier curve's control points from an array of between 1 to 4 input points.

Description

Defines the control points of the bezier curve using an array of four Points. If the array is defined as an array from 0 to 3, then the index of each point corresponds to the control point they represent.

Remarks

Use PutCoord to set a single control point.
