            Parameters

Sample Code

    Private Sub UtilPointInPolygon()
        Dim utils As New MapWinGIS.Utils()
        Dim point As New MapWinGIS.Point()
        Dim shape As New MapWinGIS.Shape()
        Dim success As Boolean
        'Set the x and y values of the point to be tested
        point.x = 3000
        point.y = 2500
        'Check if the point lies within the polygon shape
        success = utils.PointInPolygon(shape, point)
    End Sub
