LVectorBase::GetActiveLayer

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LVectorBase::GetActiveLayer(pVectorLayer);

LVectorLayer * pVectorLayer;

/* pointer to vector layer object */

Gets the active layer inside the class object's vector.

Parameter	Description
pVectorLayer	Pointer to an LVectorLayer object to be updated with the active layer.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Some functions will use the active layer when NULL is passed for a pLVectorLayer parameter. This makes it easier to work with the toolkit when layers are not needed.

Required DLLs and Libraries
