LAnnProtractor::GetDistance2

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LAnnProtractor::GetDistance2(puCount, pDistance, pTotalDistance, uStructSize)

Gets the length of each ruler that makes up an object, and the total length of all rulers. It works for ANNOBJECT_RULER, ANNOBJECT_PROTRACTOR, ANNOBJECT_CROSSPRODUCT, and ANNOBJECT_POLYRULER annotation objects. This function is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Returns

Comments

This function works only for the following objects:

ANNOBJECT_RULER

ANNOBJECT_PROTRACTOR

ANNOBJECT_CROSSPRODUCT

ANNOBJECT_POLYRULER

The ANNOBJECT_POLYRULER object is composed of a variable number of rulers. The other ruler objects are composed of a predetermined number of rulers, as follows:

ANNOBJECT_RULER always has one distance

ANNOBJECT_PROTRACTOR and ANNOBJECT_CROSSPRODUCT always have two distances

ANNOBJECT_POLYRULER can have from one to any number of distances

To use this function with the ANNOBJECT_POLYRULER, call it twice, as shown in the following code excerpt. For the first call, pass NULL for pDistance and pTotalDistance. This returns the total number of rulers that make up the object. Allocate the appropriately sized array, and then call the function again.

L_UINT uCount;
pANNSMARTDISTANCE pDistance;
ANNSMARTDISTANCE TotalDistance;

pProtractor->GetDistance2(&uCount, NULL, NULL, sizeof(ANNSMARTDISTANCE));
pDistance = (p ANNSMARTDISTANCE)malloc(uCount * sizeof(ANNSMARTDISTANCE));
pProtractor->GetDistance2(&uCount,
pDistance, &TotalDistance, sizeof(ANNSMARTDISTANCE));
