ST_LineFromWKB

Definition

ST_LineFromWKB takes a well-known binary (WKB) representation of type ST_LineString and a spatial reference ID and returns an ST_LineString.

Syntax

Oracle

sde.st_linefromwkb (wkb blob, srid integer)

PostgreSQL

sde.st_linefromwkb (wkb bytea, srid integer)

SQLite

st_linefromwkb (wkb blob, srid int32)

Return type

ST_LineString

Example

The following commands create a table (sample_lines) and use the ST_LineFromWKB function to insert lines from a WKB representation. The row is inserted into the sample_lines table with an ID and a line in spatial reference system 4326 in the WKB representation.
