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

Syntax

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

Parameters

point
Type: ceometric.VectorGeometry..::.Point
A point.

Return Value

Returns the shortest spatial distance between the edge and point

Remarks

This distance is always positive or zero.

If the point lies exactly on the edge, this method may not exactly return zero only due to floating point arithmetic.
