Property GISformat;

 

Defines the output format for functions such as IsoPoly2:

 

0: MIF (default)

1: SHP

2: MITAB - TAB format (not available in .NET version, will generate MIF file instead)

3: GML2 - GML 2.1.2

4: None

5: Array

6: KML2 - KML 2.0

 

TAB format is only possible on the windows platform if the MITAB.DLL is found on the path. If you specify TAB as format and this is not the situation, MIF files will be generated instead. This requires MITAB.DLL version 1.5.0 found at RouteWare website.

 

MIF and TAB files are generated with coordinate clauses as specified, when the network was created. For SHP files no .PRJ file is created.

 

GML format will create 2 files with XML and XSD extensions.

 

KML files can be opened with Google Earth desktop application. You should only use this format if your coordinate data are in latitude/longitude (WGS 84) format, since no coordinate conversion will be performed.

 

If you plan to read the DBF part of a SHP file, be aware that some database drivers only accepts short (8+3) filenames. Microsofts JET engine has this problem.

 

This property is available on both objects (except for the DLL version).

 

If you specify it for RWcalc object, it will override the setting of the RWnetBase object. Setting None is only possible for the RWcalc object and is also the default.

 

ActiveX / VCL / CLX component: RWnetBase & RWcalc
