Defines "Region B" polygon for use in determining whether two regions overlap.

Syntax

intl pipAddRegionBPolygon ( pipOverlapHandle over_h, intl num_points, intl *points );

Arguments

over_h

Handle from pipInitializeOverlapCheck. Input.

num_points

Number of points in the polygon. Input.

*points

Points describing the polygon (can be user-defined or long/lat). Input.

Return Value

PIP_OK

PIP_ERROR

Prerequisites

pipInitializeOverlapCheck.

Alternates

pipObjectFindFirstPolygon.

Notes

You must also call pipAddRegionAPolygon.

This function defines the second region used by pipCheckForRegionOverlap

when comparing two regions.

You can compare multiple RegionB polygons to a single first region using the same handle returned by pipInitializeOverlapCheck. Call pipClearRegionBPolygon after pipCheckForRegionOverlap or pipCheckForRegionOverlapEx and before additional calls to pipAddRegionBPolygon.
