Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsPointLocator()

QgsPointLocator::QgsPointLocator ( QgsVectorLayer layer,
const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem destinationCrs = QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem(),
const QgsCoordinateTransformContext transformContext = QgsCoordinateTransformContext(),
const QgsRectangle extent = nullptr 
)
explicit

Construct point locator for a layer.

If a valid QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem is passed for destinationCrs then the locator will do the searches on data reprojected to the given CRS. For accurate reprojection it is important to set the correct transformContext if a destinationCrs is specified. This is usually taken from the current QgsProject::transformContext().

If extent is not null, the locator will index only a subset of the layer which falls within that extent.

◆ ~QgsPointLocator()

QgsPointLocator::~QgsPointLocator ( )
override

Definition at line 642 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cachedGeometryCount()

int QgsPointLocator::cachedGeometryCount ( ) const
inline

Return how many geometries are cached in the index.

Since
QGIS 2.14

Definition at line 260 of file qgspointlocator.h.

◆ destinationCrs()

QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem QgsPointLocator::destinationCrs ( ) const

Get destination CRS - may be an invalid QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem if not doing OTF reprojection.

Since
QGIS 2.14

Definition at line 649 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ destroyIndex

void QgsPointLocator::destroyIndex ( )
protectedslot

Definition at line 768 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ edgesInRect() [1/2]

QgsPointLocator::MatchList QgsPointLocator::edgesInRect ( const QgsRectangle rect,
QgsPointLocator::MatchFilter filter = nullptr 
)

Find edges within a specified recangle Optional filter may discard unwanted matches.

Definition at line 919 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ edgesInRect() [2/2]

QgsPointLocator::MatchList QgsPointLocator::edgesInRect ( const QgsPointXY point,
double  tolerance,
QgsPointLocator::MatchFilter filter = nullptr 
)

Override of edgesInRect that construct rectangle from a center point and tolerance.

Definition at line 939 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ extent()

const QgsRectangle* QgsPointLocator::extent ( ) const
inline

Get extent of the area point locator covers - if null then it caches the whole layer.

Since
QGIS 2.14

Definition at line 87 of file qgspointlocator.h.

◆ hasIndex()

bool QgsPointLocator::hasIndex ( ) const

Indicate whether the data have been already indexed.

Definition at line 671 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ init()

bool QgsPointLocator::init ( int  maxFeaturesToIndex = -1)

Prepare the index for queries.

Does nothing if the index already exists. If the number of features is greater than the value of maxFeaturesToIndex, creation of index is stopped to make sure we do not run out of memory. If maxFeaturesToIndex is -1, no limits are used. Returns false if the creation of index has been prematurely stopped due to the limit of features, otherwise true

Definition at line 665 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ layer()

QgsVectorLayer* QgsPointLocator::layer ( ) const
inline

Get associated layer.

Since
QGIS 2.14

Definition at line 75 of file qgspointlocator.h.

◆ nearestArea()

QgsPointLocator::Match QgsPointLocator::nearestArea ( const QgsPointXY point,
double  tolerance,
QgsPointLocator::MatchFilter filter = nullptr 
)

Find nearest area to the specified point - up to distance specified by tolerance Optional filter may discard unwanted matches.

This will first perform a pointInPolygon and return first result. If no match is found and tolerance is not 0, it will return nearestEdge.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 885 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ nearestEdge()

QgsPointLocator::Match QgsPointLocator::nearestEdge ( const QgsPointXY point,
double  tolerance,
QgsPointLocator::MatchFilter filter = nullptr 
)

Find nearest edge to the specified point - up to distance specified by tolerance Optional filter may discard unwanted matches.

Definition at line 863 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ nearestVertex()

QgsPointLocator::Match QgsPointLocator::nearestVertex ( const QgsPointXY point,
double  tolerance,
QgsPointLocator::MatchFilter filter = nullptr 
)

Find nearest vertex to the specified point - up to distance specified by tolerance Optional filter may discard unwanted matches.

Definition at line 845 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ pointInPolygon()

QgsPointLocator::MatchList QgsPointLocator::pointInPolygon ( const QgsPointXY point)

find out if the point is in any polygons

Definition at line 946 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ rebuildIndex()

bool QgsPointLocator::rebuildIndex ( int  maxFeaturesToIndex = -1)
protected

Definition at line 677 of file qgspointlocator.cpp.

◆ setExtent()

void QgsPointLocator::setExtent ( const QgsRectangle extent)

Configure extent - if not null, it will index only that area.
