Detailed Description

The QGeoShape class defines a geographic area.

This class is the base class for classes which specify a geographic area.

For the sake of consistency, subclasses should describe the specific details of the associated areas in terms of QGeoCoordinate instances and distances in meters.

Member Type Documentation

enum QGeoShape::​ShapeType

Describes the type of the shape.

ConstantValueDescription
QGeoShape::UnknownType0A shape of unknown type.
QGeoShape::RectangleType1A rectangular shape.
QGeoShape::CircleType2A circular shape.

Member Function Documentation

QGeoShape::​QGeoShape()

Constructs a new invalid geo shape of UnknownType.

QGeoShape::​QGeoShape(const QGeoShape & other)

Constructs a new geo shape which is a copy of other.

QGeoShape::​~QGeoShape()

Destroys this geo shape.

bool QGeoShape::​contains(const QGeoCoordinate & coordinate) const

Returns whether the coordinate coordinate is contained within this geo shape.

void QGeoShape::​extendShape(const QGeoCoordinate & coordinate)

Extends the geo shape to also cover the coordinate coordinate

bool QGeoShape::​isEmpty() const

Returns whether this geo shape is empty.

An empty geo shape is a region which has a geometrical area of 0.

bool QGeoShape::​isValid() const

Returns whether this geo shape is valid.

An geo shape is considered to be invalid if some of the data that is required to unambiguously describe the geo shape has not been set or has been set to an unsuitable value.

ShapeType QGeoShape::​type() const

Returns the type of this geo shape.

bool QGeoShape::​operator!=(const QGeoShape & other) const

Returns true if the other geo shape is not equivalent to this geo shape, otherwise returns false.

QGeoShape & QGeoShape::​operator=(const QGeoShape & other)

Assigns other to this geo shape and returns a reference to this geo shape.

bool QGeoShape::​operator==(const QGeoShape & other) const

Returns true if the other geo shape is equivalent to this geo shape, otherwise returns false.
