static void DestroyCT (OGRCoordinateTransformation *poCT)
 OGRCoordinateTransformation destructor.


Detailed Description

Interface for transforming between coordinate systems.

Currently, the only implementation within OGR is OGRProj4CT, which requires the PROJ.4 library to be available at run-time.

Also, see OGRCreateCoordinateTransformation() for creating transformations.


Member Function Documentation

void OGRCoordinateTransformation::DestroyCT ( OGRCoordinateTransformation poCT  )  [static]

OGRCoordinateTransformation destructor.

This function is the same as OGRCoordinateTransformation::~OGRCoordinateTransformation() and OCTDestroyCoordinateTransformation()

This static method will destroy a OGRCoordinateTransformation. It is equivalent to calling delete on the object, but it ensures that the deallocation is properly executed within the OGR libraries heap on platforms where this can matter (win32).

Parameters:
poCT the object to delete
Since:
GDAL 1.7.0

virtual OGRSpatialReference* OGRCoordinateTransformation::GetSourceCS (  )  [pure virtual]

Fetch internal source coordinate system.

virtual OGRSpatialReference* OGRCoordinateTransformation::GetTargetCS (  )  [pure virtual]

virtual int OGRCoordinateTransformation::Transform ( int  nCount,
double *  x,
double *  y,
double *  z = NULL 
) [pure virtual]

Transform points from source to destination space.

This method is the same as the C function OCTTransform().

The method TransformEx() allows extended success information to be captured indicating which points failed to transform.

Parameters:
nCount number of points to transform.
x array of nCount X vertices, modified in place.
y array of nCount Y vertices, modified in place.
z array of nCount Z vertices, modified in place.
Returns:
TRUE on success, or FALSE if some or all points fail to transform.

Referenced by OGRPoint::transform(), and OGRLineString::transform().

virtual int OGRCoordinateTransformation::TransformEx ( int  nCount,
double *  x,
double *  y,
double *  z = NULL,
int *  pabSuccess = NULL 
) [pure virtual]

Transform points from source to destination space.

This method is the same as the C function OCTTransformEx().

Parameters:
nCount number of points to transform.
x array of nCount X vertices, modified in place.
y array of nCount Y vertices, modified in place.
z array of nCount Z vertices, modified in place.
pabSuccess array of per-point flags set to TRUE if that point transforms, or FALSE if it does not.
Returns:
TRUE if some or all points transform successfully, or FALSE if if none transform.
