Returns the minimal distance between two geometries.
[Visual Basic .NET] Public Function ReturnDistance3D ( _ ByVal pOther As IGeometry _ ) As Double
[C#] public double ReturnDistance3D ( IGeometry pOther );
[C++]
HRESULT ReturnDistance3D(
IGeometry* pOther,
double* pDistance
);
[C++]Parameters
pOtherpOther is a parameter of type IGeometry
pDistance [out, retval] pDistance is a parameter of type double
Product Availability
Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.
Description
Returns the minimum distance between two z aware geometries in
3D space. If the geometries intersect, the minimum distance
is 0. Only returns the distance, and not the nearest
points.
