DbSpatialServices.GeometryFromText Method

Definition

Creates a new DbGeometry value based on the specified well-known text value.

Overloads

GeometryFromText(String)

Creates a new DbGeometry value based on the specified well-known text value.

GeometryFromText(String, Int32)

Creates a new DbGeometry value based on the specified well-known text value and coordinate system identifier (SRID).

GeometryFromText(String)

Creates a new DbGeometry value based on the specified well-known text value.

public:
 abstract System::Data::Spatial::DbGeometry ^ GeometryFromText(System::String ^ wellKnownText);
public abstract System.Data.Spatial.DbGeometry GeometryFromText (string wellKnownText);
abstract member GeometryFromText : string -> System.Data.Spatial.DbGeometry
Public MustOverride Function GeometryFromText (wellKnownText As String) As DbGeometry

Parameters

wellKnownText
String

A string that contains a well-known text representation of the geometry value.

Returns

A new DbGeometry value as defined by the well-known text value with the default DbGeometry coordinate system identifier (SRID) (DefaultCoordinateSystemId).

Exceptions

wellKnownText

Applies to

GeometryFromText(String, Int32)

Creates a new DbGeometry value based on the specified well-known text value and coordinate system identifier (SRID).

public:
 abstract System::Data::Spatial::DbGeometry ^ GeometryFromText(System::String ^ wellKnownText, int coordinateSystemId);
public abstract System.Data.Spatial.DbGeometry GeometryFromText (string wellKnownText, int coordinateSystemId);
abstract member GeometryFromText : string * int -> System.Data.Spatial.DbGeometry
Public MustOverride Function GeometryFromText (wellKnownText As String, coordinateSystemId As Integer) As DbGeometry

Parameters

wellKnownText
String

A string that contains a well-known text representation of the geometry value.

coordinateSystemId
Int32

The identifier of the coordinate system that the new DbGeometry value should use.

Returns

A new DbGeometry value as defined by the well-known text value with the specified coordinate system identifier (SRID) (DefaultCoordinateSystemId).

Exceptions
