Example

This example will get a layer by name.

L_INT LVectorBase__GetLayerByNameExample(HWND hWnd, LVectorBase *pVector) 
{ 
   UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(hWnd); 
 
   L_INT          nRet; 
   LVectorLayer   VectorLayer; 
   L_TCHAR        szMsg[100]; 
 
   //Get the layer called "Sphere3" 
   nRet = pVector->GetLayerByName(TEXT("Sphere3"), &VectorLayer); 
   if (nRet == SUCCESS) 
   { 
      VECTORLAYERDESC LayerDesc; 
      nRet = VectorLayer.GetLayerDesc(&LayerDesc); 
      if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
         return nRet; 
      wsprintf(szMsg, TEXT("Layer Retrieved\nName[%s]\nSize[%d]\nLocked[%d]\nVisible[%d]"), 
         LayerDesc.szName, 
         LayerDesc.nSize, 
         LayerDesc.bLocked, 
         LayerDesc.bVisible 
         ); 
   } 
   else 
   { 
      wsprintf(szMsg, TEXT("Layer Not Found")); 
 
      return nRet;
