Interface INormalAware

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

INormalAwareProxy

public interface INormalAware
extends Serializable

Indicator interface that identifies geometries that can have persistent normal vectors values attached to coordinates.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Method Summary

void	dropNormals() Unsets all normal values without changing awareness.
boolean	isNormalAware() Indicates if this geometry is aware of normals.
boolean	isNormalSimple() Indicates if all normal values for this geometry are well-defined.
void	setNormalAware(boolean normalAware) Indicates if this geometry is aware of normals.

Method Detail

isNormalAware

boolean isNormalAware()
                      throws IOException,
                             AutomationException

Indicates if this geometry is aware of normals.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Returns:

The normalAware

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setNormalAware

void setNormalAware(boolean normalAware)
                    throws IOException,
                           AutomationException

Indicates if this geometry is aware of normals.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Parameters:

normalAware - The normalAware (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

isNormalSimple

boolean isNormalSimple()
