IConstructCurve Interface

Provides access to members that construct a curve using other geometries and measures. Note: the IConstructCurve interface has been superseded by IConstructCurve3. Please consider using the more recent version.

Product Availability

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

Description

IConstructCurve contains methods used to create specialized Polylines or Polygons from input curves. ConstructOffset is used to create the right or left offset of a given curve. ConstructExtended extends a curve according to the desired extension method.

Members

	Name	Description
	ConstructExtended	Constructs an extended version of the 'from' curve that goes to the 'to' curve. The flags are bit-wise combined esriCurveExtension values.
	ConstructKoch	Constructs a Koch snowflake fractal using the input polycurve as the generator. 'r' is not used. Do not use a value for recursionLevel > 10.
	ConstructOffset	Constructs a curve being the locus of points offset a given distance from another curve. See the enumeration esriConstructOffsetEnum to information on different ways that offset curve can be generated.

Classes that implement IConstructCurve

Classes	Description
Polygon	A collection of rings ordered by their containment relationship; optionally has measure, height and ID attributes.
Polyline	An ordered collection of paths; optionally has measure, height and ID attributes.
