SqlGeometry.STPointFromText Method

Returns a SqlGeometry instance from an Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Well-Known Text (WKT) representation augmented with any Z (elevation) and M (measure) values carried by the instance.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Types
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Types (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Types.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration

)

[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)]
public:
static SqlGeometry^ STPointFromText(
    SqlChars^ pointTaggedText, 
    int srid
)

[<SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)>]
static member STPointFromText : 
        pointTaggedText:SqlChars * 
        srid:int -> SqlGeometry 

public static function STPointFromText(
    pointTaggedText : SqlChars, 
    srid : int
) : SqlGeometry

Parameters

  • srid
    Type: System.Int32
    An int expression that represents the spatial reference ID (SRID) of the SqlGeometry Point instance you wish to return.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Types.SqlGeometry
A SqlGeometry instance constructed from the specified WKT representation.
