[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub ConstructBearingAngleArc ( _
    ByVal from As IPoint, _
    ByVal inAngle As Double, _
    ByVal isCCW As Boolean, _
    ByVal CentralAngle As Double, _

[C#]
public void ConstructBearingAngleArc (
    IPoint from,
    double inAngle,
    bool isCCW,
    double CentralAngle,
    double arcDistance
);

[C++]
HRESULT ConstructBearingAngleArc(

  VARIANT_BOOL isCCW,
  double CentralAngle,
  double arcDistance
);

[C++]
Parameters
from 

  from is a parameter of type IPoint*
inAngle 

  inAngle is a parameter of type double

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

Constructs a CircularArc given the From Point, the Bearing Angle, the desired orientation, the desired Central Angle, and the desired CircularArc Length. The Bearing Angle and Central Angle are measured in radians.

Remarks

-isCCW stands for "is counter clockwise"
