IHitTest.HitTest Method

Locates a part of a geometry closest to a query point. Any located part must be within searchRadius units from the query point.

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function HitTest ( _
    ByVal QueryPoint As IPoint, _
    ByVal searchRadius As Double, _
    ByVal geometryPart As esriGeometryHitPartType, _
    ByVal hitPoint As IPoint, _
    ByRef hitDistance As Double, _
    ByRef hitPartIndex As Integer, _
    ByRef hitSegmentIndex As Integer, _
    ByRef bRightSide As Boolean _
) As Boolean

[C#]
public bool HitTest (
    IPoint QueryPoint,
    double searchRadius,
    esriGeometryHitPartType geometryPart,
    IPoint hitPoint,
    ref double hitDistance,
    ref int hitPartIndex,
    ref int hitSegmentIndex,
    ref bool bRightSide
);

[C++]
HRESULT HitTest(
  IPoint* QueryPoint,
  double searchRadius,
  esriGeometryHitPartType geometryPart,
  IPoint* hitPoint,
  double* hitDistance,
  long* hitPartIndex,
  long* hitSegmentIndex,
  VARIANT_BOOL* bRightSide,
  VARIANT_BOOL* bHit
);

[C++]

Remarks

The segment index returned has different meanings depending on the esriGeometryHitPartType used (Please see the example for more details).

EsriGeometryPartVertex: returns a vertex index

EsriGeometryPartBoundary, esriGeometryPartMidpoint and esriGeometryPartEndpoint: return a segment index

EsriGeometryPartCentroid: Always returns 0 for the part index and the segment index.

brightside: Indicates if the input point is on the right side of the input geometry

Note: The distance units use in this method are the units of the input geometry. No conversion is performed. esriGeometryHitPartType parameter cannot be a combination of several esriGeometryHitPartTypes.
