Computes the shortest spatial distance between two objects.

Namespace:  ceometric.VectorGeometry
Assembly:  ceometric.VectorGeometry (in ceometric.VectorGeometry.dll) Version: 1.8.0.0 (1.8.0.0)

Syntax

C#
public double DistanceTo(
	Line line
)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Function DistanceTo ( _
	line As Line _
) As Double
Visual C++
public:
double DistanceTo(
	Line^ line
)

Parameters

line
Type: ceometric.VectorGeometry..::.Line
A line.

Return Value

Returns the shortest spatial distance between the edge and line. Returns 0 if the edge intersects line

Remarks

This distance is always positive or zero.

If the edge exactly intersects line, this method returns exactly zero only in rare cases due to floating point arithmetic.
