Creates an extended string representation of a vertical transformation

Usage syntax

void pe_verttran_to_string_ext (PE_VERTTRAN verttran, int mode, char buffer[PE_BUFFER_MAX]);

Parameters

Description

Creates an extended string representation of a vertical transformation object

The values for the mode parameter are:

   PE_STR_AUTH_NONE 0 /* No authority information */
PE_STR_AUTH_TOP 1 /* Only include authority information for the top-level object */
PE_STR_AUTH_ALL 2 /* Include authority information for all objects */

In pe_verttran_to_string_ext, the VERTTRAN is considered the top-level object. Thus, any subobjects, such as VERTCS and VTMETHOD, do not include authority information if the mode is set to PE_STR_AUTH_TOP.

Returns

None

Examples

Mode is set to PE_STR_AUTH_ALL. The string is formatted for readability.
