ByVal numDigits As Integer, _
ByVal numericRounding As Boolean _
) As String
[C#]
public string GetGeoRefFromCoords (
int numDigits,
bool numericRounding
);
[C++]
HRESULT GetGeoRefFromCoords(
long numDigits,
VARIANT_BOOL numericRounding
);
[C++] Parameters numDigits
numDigits is a parameter of type long numericRounding
