| pe_geoxyzcs_clone | |
Creates a new geocentric coordinate system from an existing one
PE_GEOXYZCS pe_geoxyzcs_clone (PE_GEOXYZCS geoxyzcs);
| geoxyzcs | An existing geocentric coordinate system object |
This function creates a duplicate geocentric coordinate system from an existing geocentric coordinate system object. A geocentric coordinate system is a 3D Cartesian system. The X axis lies in the plane of the equator and points in the direction of the prime meridian (usually Greenwich). The Y axis is 90 degrees away in the plane of the equator, and the Z axis points north in a right-handed system.
Note: Currently, geocentric coordinate systems are not supported by the ArcSDE or ArcGIS software.
On success, the new geocentric coordinate system. On failure, a null pointer.
PE_GEOXYZCS geocs2 = pe_geoxyzcs_clone(geocs);
