TestShapeInShape
Tests whether a shape lies inside another one.
Syntax
C++
C#
void avl::TestShapeInShape ( const avl::Path& inSubShape, const avl::Path& inShape, bool& outIsContained )
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
inSubShape | const Path& | Shape the position of which will be tested | |
|
inShape | const Path& | Shape against which the position will be tested | |
 |
outIsContained | bool& | True if whole shape lies inside the other one, false otherwise |
Description
The operation tests if inSubShape lies (in its entirety) inside inShape.
Due to inaccuracy of floating point representation a point lying extremely close to a path may considered to be on either of the sides of the path or exactly on the path itself.
Errors
| Error type | Description |
|---|---|
| DomainError | Open path on input in TestShapeInShape. |
| DomainError | Empty path on input (inSubShape) in TestShapeInShape. |
