GeGeometryComplex(T).Covers Method

GeGeometryComplexTCovers Method

Returns True if geometry covers specified geometry, otherwise returns False.

Namespace: FDF.Common.Geometries
Assembly: FDF.Common (in FDF.Common.dll) Version: 3.0.0.0

Syntax

public bool Covers(
	IGeGeometry other
)

Public Function Covers ( 
	other As IGeGeometry
) As Boolean

public:
virtual bool Covers(
	IGeGeometry^ other
) sealed

abstract Covers : 
        other : IGeGeometry -> bool 
override Covers : 
        other : IGeGeometry -> bool

Type: Boolean

Remarks

Returns True if the DE-9IM intersection matrix for the two geometries is T*****FF* or *T****FF* or ***T**FF* or ****T*FF*, otherwise returns False.

Note the difference between Covers(IGeGeometry) and Contains(IGeGeometry): Covers(IGeGeometry) is a more inclusive relation. In particular, unlike Contains(IGeGeometry) it does not distinguish between points on the boundary and in the interior of geometries.
