Description
Use an element from the esriSRSpheroidType or esriSRSpheroid2Type enumerations as the spheroidType to create a particular predefined spheroid.
ISpatialReferenceFactory spatialReferenceFactory = new SpatialReferenceEnvironmentClass();
//Create the spheroid using the available spheroids. These can be
//found in the esriGeometry esriSRSpheroidType enumeration.
ISpheroid spheroid = spatialReferenceFactory.CreateSpheroid((int)esriSRSpheroidType.esriSRSpheroid_Clarke1866);
Dim pSpatRefFact As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.ISpatialReferenceFactory
'Set the spatial reference factory to a new spatial reference environment
pSpatRefFact = New ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.SpatialReferenceEnvironment
Dim pSpher As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.ISpheroid 'Create the spheroid using the available spheroids. These can be
'found in the esriGeometry esriSRSpheroidType enumeration.
pSpher = pSpatRefFact.CreateSpheroid(ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.esriSRSpheroidType.esriSRSpheroid_Clarke1866)
