Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ PathError

Possible errors that may happen when calling findShortestPath()

Enumerator
ErrNone 

No error.

ErrTooManyFeatures 

Max feature count threshold was reached while reading features.

ErrPoint1 

Start point cannot be joined to the graph.

ErrPoint2 

End point cannot be joined to the graph.

ErrNoPath 

Points are not connected in the graph.

Definition at line 132 of file qgstracer.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsTracer()

QgsTracer::QgsTracer ( )
default

Constructor for QgsTracer.

◆ ~QgsTracer()

QgsTracer::~QgsTracer ( )
override

Definition at line 588 of file qgstracer.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ configure()

virtual void QgsTracer::configure ( )
inlineprotectedvirtual

Allows derived classes to setup the settings just before the tracer is initialized.

This allows the configuration to be set in a lazy way only when it is really necessary. Default implementation does nothing.

Reimplemented in QgsMapCanvasTracer.

Definition at line 158 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ destinationCrs()

QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem QgsTracer::destinationCrs ( ) const
inline

Returns the CRS used for tracing.

See also
setDestinationCrs()

Definition at line 63 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ extent()

QgsRectangle QgsTracer::extent ( ) const
inline

Gets extent to which graph's features will be limited (empty extent means no limit)

Definition at line 78 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ findShortestPath()

QVector< QgsPointXY > QgsTracer::findShortestPath ( const QgsPointXY p1,
const QgsPointXY p2,
PathError error = nullptr 
)

Given two points, find the shortest path and return points on the way.

The optional "error" argument may receive error code (PathError enum) if it is not null

Returns
array of points - trace of linestrings of other features (empty array one error)

Definition at line 727 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ hasTopologyProblem()

bool QgsTracer::hasTopologyProblem ( ) const
inline

Whether there was an error during graph creation due to noding exception, indicating some input data topology problems.

Since
QGIS 2.16

Definition at line 129 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ init()

bool QgsTracer::init ( )

Build the internal data structures.

This may take some time depending on how big the input layers are. It is not necessary to call this method explicitly - it will be called by findShortestPath() if necessary.

Definition at line 666 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ invalidateGraph

void QgsTracer::invalidateGraph ( )
protectedslot

Destroy the existing graph structure if any (de-initialize)

Definition at line 678 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ isInitialized()

bool QgsTracer::isInitialized ( ) const
inline

Whether the internal data structures have been initialized.

Definition at line 122 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ isPointSnapped()

bool QgsTracer::isPointSnapped ( const QgsPointXY pt)

Find out whether the point is snapped to a vertex or edge (i.e. it can be used for tracing start/stop)

Definition at line 794 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ layers()

QList<QgsVectorLayer *> QgsTracer::layers ( ) const
inline

Gets layers used for tracing.

Definition at line 55 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ maxFeatureCount()

int QgsTracer::maxFeatureCount ( ) const
inline

Gets maximum possible number of features in graph. If the number is exceeded, graph is not created.

Definition at line 109 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ offset()

double QgsTracer::offset ( ) const
inline

Gets offset in map units that should be applied to the traced paths returned from findShortestPath().

Positive offset for right side, negative offset for left side.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 87 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ offsetParameters()

void QgsTracer::offsetParameters ( int &  quadSegments,
int &  joinStyle,
double &  miterLimit 
)

Gets extra parameters for offset curve algorithm (used when offset is non-zero)

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 652 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ setDestinationCrs()

void QgsTracer::setDestinationCrs ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem crs,
const QgsCoordinateTransformContext context 
)

Sets the crs and transform context used for tracing.

See also
destinationCrs()

Definition at line 625 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ setExtent()

void QgsTracer::setExtent ( const QgsRectangle extent)

Sets extent to which graph's features will be limited (empty extent means no limit)

Definition at line 638 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ setLayers()

void QgsTracer::setLayers ( const QList< QgsVectorLayer *> &  layers)

Sets layers used for tracing.

Definition at line 593 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ setMaxFeatureCount()

void QgsTracer::setMaxFeatureCount ( int  count)
inline

Gets maximum possible number of features in graph. If the number is exceeded, graph is not created.

Definition at line 111 of file qgstracer.h.

◆ setOffset()

void QgsTracer::setOffset ( double  offset)

Set offset in map units that should be applied to the traced paths returned from findShortestPath().

Positive offset for right side, negative offset for left side.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 647 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ setOffsetParameters()

void QgsTracer::setOffsetParameters ( int  quadSegments,
int  joinStyle,
double  miterLimit 
)

Set extra parameters for offset curve algorithm (used when offset is non-zero)

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 659 of file qgstracer.cpp.

◆ setRenderContext()

void QgsTracer::setRenderContext ( const QgsRenderContext renderContext)

Sets the renderContext used for tracing only on visible features.
