SqlGeography.STPointN Method

Syntax

'Declaration
<SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic := True, IsPrecise := True)> _
Public Function STPointN ( _
    n As Integer _
) As SqlGeography
'Usage
Dim instance As SqlGeography
Dim n As Integer
Dim returnValue As SqlGeography

returnValue = instance.STPointN(n)

[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = true)]
public SqlGeography STPointN(
    int n
)

[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = true)]
public:
SqlGeography^ STPointN(
    int n
)

[<SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = true)>]
member STPointN : 
        n:int -> SqlGeography 

public function STPointN(
    n : int
) : SqlGeography

Remarks

If a SqlGeography instance is user-created, the STPointN method returns the point specified by expression by ordering the points in the order in which they were originally input.

If a SqlGeography instance is constructed by the system, STPointN returns the point specified by expression by ordering all the points in the same order they would be output: first by geography instance, then by ring within the instance (if appropriate), and then by point within the ring. This order is deterministic.

If this method is called with a value less than 1, it throws an ArgumentOutOfRangeException.

If this method is called with a value greater than the number of points in the instance, it returns nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
