LVectorRaster::LockObject

virtual L_INT LVectorRaster::LockObject(pRaster)

pVECTORRASTER pRaster;

/* pointer to a vector object */

Gets the object information of the class object.

Parameter	Description
pRaster	Pointer to a VECTORRASTER structure to be updated with the vector object information.

Returns

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

Comments

This function is used to retrieve the object information of the class object.

To use this method, declare a variable of the VECTORRASTER type and pass the address to this function. After modifying the vector object settings, call LVectorRaster::UnlockObject (). LVectorRaster::LockObject() and LVectorRaster::UnlockObject () should always be called in pairs.

Before an object has been added to the LVectorBase object, using LVectorBase::AddObject or LVectorLayer::AddObject, LVectorRaster::UnlockObject () can be used to change ALL properties of an object. However, once the object has been added to the LVectorBase object, some properties cannot be changed using LVectorRaster::UnlockObject ().

To change the object information for a class object, call LVectorRaster::UnlockObject.

LVectorRaster::LockObject and LVectorRaster::UnlockObject must be called in pairs.

Note that rotating an object may change the object type. However, not all object types are changed by rotation, and not all rotations result in changing an object type. For example, a rectangle rotated 90 degrees about the z-axis is still a rectangle. A rectangle rotated 45 degrees about the z-axis becomes a polydraw object. The table below indicates object types that may change following rotation and the possible resulting object types.

Original object type	Possible object type following rotation
VECTOR_RECTANGLE	VECTOR_POLYGON
VECTOR_ELLIPSE	VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_CIRCLE	VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_ARC	VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_TEXT	VECTOR_POLYDRAW
VECTOR_PIE	VECTOR_POLYDRAW

If an object type changes, LVectorRaster::LockObject and LVectorRaster::UnlockObject will return WRPERR_VECTOR_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE. Object properties can still be inspected and changed by using LVectorObject::GetObjectAttributes and LVectorObject::SetObjectAttributes.

Example

This example will add a Raster object to the Active Layer LVectorBase object

Once added, the object will be shifted
