ArcObjects Library Reference (Geometry)

GeometryEnvironment CoClass

Provides a way of creating geometries from different inputs and setting/getting global variables for controlling behavior of geometry methods.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Extended Error Information

Use the ISupportErrorInfo method InterfaceSupportsErrorInfo to determine if the object supports extended error information. If the object supports extended error info, VC++ developers should use the OLE/COM IErrorInfo interface to access the ErrorInfo object. Visual Basic developers should use the global error object Err to retrieve this extended error information.

Interfaces

Interfaces	Description
IConstructAngle	Provides access to members that construct an angle using other geometries and measures. This interface is implemented by the GeometryEnvironment object.
IConstructClothoid	Methods for constructing clothoid spirals.
IConstructDomainExtent	Provides access to members that construct domain extents based on defined precision.
IConstructMerge	Methods for doing a 3-way merge using two modified versions of a geometry along with the original.
IEncode3DProperties	Provides access to members that encode and decode normals and 2D texture coordinates into a single double value.
IExtrude	Provides access to members that can be used to take a geometry and connect it to a translated version of itself to generate a higher-dimensional geometry.
IGeometryBridge	Provides access to a set of generic methods that can be used in all languages supported.
IGeometryBridge2	Provides access to a set of generic methods that can be used in all languages supported.
IGeometryEnvironment	Provides access to members that control global geometry variables.
IGeometryEnvironment2	Provides access to members that control additional global geometry variables.
IGeometryEnvironment3	Provides access to members that control additional global geometry variables.
IGeometryEnvironment4	Provides access to members that control additional global geometry variables.
IGeometryFactory	Provides access to members that create geometries from different inputs.
IGeometryFactory2	Provides access to members that create geometries from different inputs.
IGeometryFactory3	Provides access to members that create geometries from different inputs.
ISupportErrorInfo	Indicates whether a specific interface can return Automation error objects.

Remarks

This coclass is a Singleton.
