Purpose

Set the value of an MBB (minimum bounding box) type using a buffer of six double precision values. The values represent the xmin, ymin, zmin, xmax, ymax, and zmax coordinates that define the MBB.

Syntax

void
FNC_MBBSetValue(GEO_HANDLE    mbbHandle,
                double *      mbbValue)
GEO_HANDLE mbbHandle
A handle to an MBB type that is defined to be a return value for a UDF/UDM or an INOUT/OUT parameter to an external stored procedure.
double* mbbValue
A pointer to a buffer containing the six double precision values.

Usage Notes

FNC_MBBSetValue sets the value of an MBB type. A buffer mbbValue containing six double precision values is provided as input to the routine along with the MBB handle.

Example: Using FNC calls to set an MBB type value

The following function takes six double precision values as input, and returns an MBB value.

CREATE FUNCTION mbbUDF1(P0 DOUBLE PRECISION, P1 DOUBLE PRECISION, P2 DOUBLE PRECISION, 
                        P3 DOUBLE PRECISION, P4 DOUBLE PRECISION, P5 DOUBLE PRECISION)
