Member Function Documentation

◆ AddClosedLineSpeedLimit()

Result CartoType::Framework::AddClosedLineSpeedLimit ( Int64%  aId,
Geometry aLine,
double  aSpeed,
int  aVehicleTypes 
)

Adds a speed limit in kph, to be used when calculating routes, to a polygon which is the interior of a closed line along roads, defined by a series of points.

aId is used to return an identifier for the speed limit, which can be used when calling DeleteTrafficInfo(). If aId is non-zero when passed in, it is used, and any existing object with that ID is replaced, otherwise a new identifier is generated.

aLine is a series of points defining the polygon. The polygon is calculated as the best route through the points, using the route network, so to be certain of specifying the desired polygon you need to supply a point for every junction.

aSpeed is the speed to which travel is restricted in kph. Values of zero or less indicate that the road is closed. Values higher than 255 indicate that there is no speed limit.

aVehicleTypes is a set of flags drawn from the constants in RouteProfile. If aVehicleTypes is 0, all vehicles are affected. Some useful values are RouteProfile.AllVehicles, RouteProfile.AllMotorVehicles and RouteProfile.BicycleAccessFlag.

A polygon map object representing the speed limit is added to the layer 'traffic'.

See also AddTrafficInfo(), AddLineSpeedLimit(), AddPolygonSpeedlimit(), AddForbiddenArea(), DeleteSpeedLimit(), and ClearTrafficInfo().

◆ AddForbiddenArea()

Result CartoType::Framework::AddForbiddenArea ( Int64%  aId,
Geometry aPolygon 
)

Marks a certain polygon as forbidden for routing.

aId is used to return an identifier for the speed limit, which can be used when calling DeleteSpeedLimit(). If aId is non-zero when passed in, it is used, and any existing object with that ID is replaced, otherwise a new identifier is generated.

See also AddTrafficInfo, AddLineSpeedLimit(), AddPolygonSpeedLimit(), DeleteSpeedLimit() and ClearTrafficInfo().

◆ AddLineSpeedLimit()

Result CartoType::Framework::AddLineSpeedLimit ( Int64%  aId,
Geometry aLine,
double  aSpeed,
int  aVehicleTypes 
)

Adds a speed limit in kph, to be used when calculating routes, to a route defined by a series of points.

aId is used to return an identifier for the speed limit, which can be used when calling DeleteTrafficInfo(). If aId is non-zero when passed in, it is used, and any existing object with that ID is replaced, otherwise a new identifier is generated.

aLine is a series of points defining the road. The road is calculated as the best route through the points, using the route network, so to be certain of specifying the desired route you need to supply a point for every junction. The points are snapped to the nearest nodes in the route network. This means that at the moment you cannot set a speed limit for a range smaller than an arc between two nodes.

aSpeed is the speed to which travel is restricted in kph. Values of zero or less indicate that the road is closed. Values higher than 255 indicate that there is no speed limit.

aVehicleTypes is a set of flags drawn from the constants in RouteProfile. If aVehicleTypes is 0, all vehicles are affected. Some useful values are RouteProfile.AllVehicles, RouteProfile.AllMotorVehicles and RouteProfile.BicycleAccessFlag.

A line map object representing the speed limit is added to the layer 'traffic'.

See also AddTrafficInfo(), AddClosedLineSpeedLimit(), AddPolygonSpeedlimit(), AddForbiddenArea(), DeleteSpeedLimit(), and ClearTrafficInfo().

◆ AddPolygonSpeedLimit()

Result CartoType::Framework::AddPolygonSpeedLimit ( Int64%  aId,
Geometry aPolygon,
double  aSpeed,
int  aVehicleTypes 
)

Adds a speed limit in kph, to be used when calculating routes, to all roads in a certain polygon.

To specify particular roads, or an area enclosed by roads, use AddTrafficInfo(). This allows the router to take account of slow-downs caused by traffic density, road works, etc.

aId is used to return an identifier for the speed limit, which can be used when calling DeleteTrafficInfo(). If aId is non-zero when passed in, it is used, and any existing object with that ID is replaced, otherwise a new identifier is generated.

aSpeed is the speed to which travel is restricted, in kph. If aSpeed is zero or less, routing is forbidden in the given polygon.

aVehicleTypes is a set of flags drawn from the constants in RouteProfile. If aVehicleTypes is 0, all vehicles are affected. Some useful values are RouteProfile.AllVehicles, RouteProfile.AllMotorVehicles and RouteProfile.BicycleAccessFlag.

A polygon map object representing the speed limit is added to the layer 'traffic'.

See also AddTrafficInfo(), AddLineSpeedlimit(), AddForbiddenArea(), DeleteSpeedLimit(), and ClearTrafficInfo().

◆ AddProfile()

Result CartoType::Framework::AddProfile ( RouteProfile aProfile)

Adds a new routing profile.

A Framework object starts with a single routing profile. Adding new profiles allows several different routes to be calculated for the same start and end point.

This function has no effect if routing is performed on a map with a built-in contraction-hierarchy routing table (created using makemap /route=ch), because such a table is created using a fixed routing profile which can be set in makemap.

◆ AddTrafficInfo()

Result CartoType::Framework::AddTrafficInfo ( Int64%  aId,
TrafficInfo aTrafficInfo,
LocationRef aLocationRef 
)

Adds traffic information, such as a speed restriction, prohibition on the use of a route, reduction in the number of lanes, notification of road works, etc. At present only speed restrictions are supported.

This is the general function. See also the specialized functions AddPolygonSpeedLimit, AddLineSpeedLimit(), AddClosedLineSpeedLimit() and AddForbiddenArea().

aId is used to return an identifier for the information, which can be used when calling DeleteTrafficInfo(). If aId is non-zero when passed in, it is used, and any existing object with that ID is replaced, otherwise a new identifier is generated.

aTrafficInfo gives the type of information (speed limit, etc.).

aLocationRef defines the location (area, road, point, etc.). Only the values ERoadOrientationForwards and ERoadOrientationNone (which means the same in this context) is supported for iRoadOrientation in aLocationRef.

◆ BuiltInProfile()

RouteProfile ^ CartoType::Framework::BuiltInProfile ( int  aIndex)

Returns a built-in routing profile selected by its index, or null if the index is out of range.

Routers allowing an arbitrary profile to be set have no built-in profiles. The contraction hierarchy router has one or more built-in profiles.

◆ ChooseRoute()

Result CartoType::Framework::ChooseRoute ( int  aRouteIndex)

Chooses one among a set of alternative routes.

The index aRouteIndex selects the route: index 0 is the route created from the standard profile set at the time of creating the CNavigator object. Indexes from 1 upwards select routes created using profiles added using AddProfile, in order of their addition.

Return ErrorNotFound if the index refers to a nonexistent route. Return ErrorNotNavigating if the framework is not navigating.

This function is most appropriately called after calling StartNavigation to create the routes, but before calling Navigate to supply a position.

◆ ClipBackgroundToMapBounds()

bool CartoType::Framework::ClipBackgroundToMapBounds ( bool  aEnable)

Enables or disables clipping the map background to the map bounds.

Use this when creating map tiles to be overlaid on a larger map, so that the background (sea) color does not erase the larger map's graphics. The return value is the previous state.

◆ CreateBestRoute()

Route ^ CartoType::Framework::CreateBestRoute ( Result aResult,
RouteProfile aProfile,
RouteCoordSet aCoordSet,
bool  aStartFixed,
bool  aEndFixed,
int  aIterations 
)

Creates an optimized route to visit a series of waypoints in any order.

If aStartFixed is true, the first point in the route is always the first point supplied. If aEndFixed is true, the last point in the route is always the last point supplied. To create a circular route starting and ending at a predetermined place, but visiting the other points in any order, set aStartFixed and aEndFixed true, and make the first and last point the same. aIterations is the number of different routes to be tried. If a value of zero or less is supplied, a small default number of iterations is used.

To use the route for navigation, call the UseRoute() function.

◆ CreateBestRouteAsync()

Result CartoType::Framework::CreateBestRouteAsync ( RouterAsyncDelegate aDelegate,
RouteProfile aProfile,
RouteCoordSet aCoordSet,
bool  aStartFixed,
bool  aEndFixed,
int  aIterations,
bool  aOverride 
)

An asynchronous version of CreateBestRoute.

Creates a route asynchronously and calls aCallback (from a different thread) with the created route and an error code.

If aOverride is true, any pending asynchronous routing operations that have not yet been started are deleted. Asynchronous routing operations are executed in order.

◆ CreateRouteAsync()

Result CartoType::Framework::CreateRouteAsync ( RouterAsyncDelegate aDelegate,
RouteProfile aProfile,
RouteCoordSet aCoordSet,
bool  aOverride 
)

Creates a route asynchronously and calls aCallback (from a different thread) with the created route and an error code.

If aOverride is true, any pending asynchronous routing operations that have not yet been started are deleted. Asynchronous routing operations are executed in order.

◆ CreateRouteFromXml()

Route ^ CartoType::Framework::CreateRouteFromXml ( Result aResult,
RouteProfile aProfile,
String^  aFilenameOrData 
)

Creates a route by reading it from XML data in GPX or CartoType route format.

If the parameter aFileNameOrData starts with a less-than sign, it is treated as XML data, otherwise it is treated as a filename. If GPX data contains route elements, the first of them is used; otherwise the first track element is used if any. The profile is ignored if the data is in CartoType route format, which contains the profile used to create it.

◆ DeleteStyleSheet()

Result CartoType::Framework::DeleteStyleSheet ( int  aIndex)

Deletes the style sheet with the specified index.

The main style sheet (index 0) may not be deleted. Other style sheets have indexes from 1 up, in the order of loading.

◆ DeleteTrafficInfo()

Result CartoType::Framework::DeleteTrafficInfo ( Int64  aId)

Deletes traffic information: a speed limit, forbidden area, or other information, referring to it by the ID returned when the restriction was added by AddTrafficInfo, AddLineSpeedLimit(), AddForbiddenArea(), etc.

Use ClearTrafficInfo() to delete all restrictions and forbidden areas.

◆ DisplayPositionOnNearestRoad()

Result CartoType::Framework::DisplayPositionOnNearestRoad ( double  aLong,
double  aLat,
double  aHeadingInDegrees,
NearestRoadInfo aInfo 
)

Moves the route position object and the route vector object to the nearest point on a road.

Uses the supplied position and heading and the current location match parameters. If aHeadingInDegrees is valid (not negative) use it to choose among roads going in different directions. If aInfo is non-null, return information about the nearest road. This function can be used whether or not navigation is being performed.

◆ DrawMemoryDataBase()

void CartoType::Framework::DrawMemoryDataBase ( bool  aEnable)

Enables or disables the drawing of the in-memory database when the rest of the map is drawn.

The in-memory database is used for the route, its start and end, and the current vehicle position. If drawing the in-memory database is disabled, you can get a separate image containing the objects from the in-memory database by calling MemoryDataBaseMapBitmap.

◆ EditInsertCurrentObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::EditInsertCurrentObject ( String^  aLayer,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts the currently edited object into a chosen layer.

Converts the curently edited object into an ordinary object. If aId is non-zero and aReplace is true, replaces any existing object with that ID, otherwise creates a new object. The ID of the new object is returned in aId.

◆ EditSelectNearestPoint()

Result CartoType::Framework::EditSelectNearestPoint ( double  aX,
double  aY,
double  aRadiusInMillimeters 
)

Selects an editable object by selecting the nearest point of any editable object within a given radius of (aX,aY), which is a point in display coordinates.

If the point is not within the given radius of an existing point, creates a new point.

◆ FindAddressAsync()

Result CartoType::Framework::FindAddressAsync ( FindAsyncDelegate aDelegate,
int  aMaxObjectCount,
Address aAddress,
bool  aFuzzy,
bool  aOverride 
)

An asynchronous address finding function.

Calls the delegate function aDelegate (from a different thread) with the map objects that have been found when the operation has been completed.

If aOverride is true, any pending asynchronous find operations that have not yet been started are deleted. Asynchronous find operations are executed in order.

◆ FindAsync() [1/2]

Result CartoType::Framework::FindAsync ( FindAsyncDelegate aDelegate,
FindParam aFindParam,
bool  aOverride 
)

Performs a general find operation asynchronously.

Calls the delegate function aDelegate (from a different thread) with the map objects that have been found when the operation has been completed.

If aOverride is true, any pending asynchronous find operations that have not yet been started are deleted. Asynchronous find operations are executed in order.

◆ FindAsync() [2/2]

Result CartoType::Framework::FindAsync ( FindAsyncGroupDelegate aDelegate,
FindParam aFindParam,
bool  aOverride 
)

An asynchronous find function to make interactive searching easier.

It returns map objects grouped by names which can be used to identify the groups in a list box. For example, a search for pubs using the word 'Red' as the search term might return one group with the name 'Red Lion' and another group with the name 'Red Cow'.

The function aDelegate is called (from a different thread) with the map object groups that have been found when the operation has been completed.

If aOverride is true, any pending asynchronous find operations that have not yet been started are deleted. Asynchronous find operations are executed in order.

◆ FindInDisplay()

Result CartoType::Framework::FindInDisplay ( MapObjectList aObjectList,
int  aMaxObjectCount,
double  aX,
double  aY,
double  aRadius 
)

Finds all objects within aRadius of the point aX,aY on the display.

The point and the radius are given in pixels. Unlike the other find functions, this function deals with the graphic representation of objects, so it will work correctly when the user clicks on an icon, but not on the actual location of the object represented by the icon.

◆ FindNearestRoad()

Result CartoType::Framework::FindNearestRoad ( NearestRoadInfo aInfo,
double  aX,
double  aY,
CoordType  aCoordType,
double  aHeadingInDegrees,
bool  aDisplayPosition 
)

Finds the nearest road to the point (aX,aY), returns information about it in aInfo, and optionally (if aDisplayPosition is true) sets the current location to that position. Uses the current location match parameters.

Roads are defined as routable map objects allowed by the current main route profile. If aHeadingInDegrees is valid (not negative) it is used to choose among roads going in different directions.

◆ FindPointsInPath()

Result CartoType::Framework::FindPointsInPath ( MapObjectList aObjectList,

)

Creates an address for a map object.

Calls to this function are limited in number in unlicensed (evaluation) versions of the CartoType library.

◆ GetAreaAndLength()

Result CartoType::Framework::GetAreaAndLength ( Geometry aGeometry,
double%  aArea,
double%  aLength 
)

Returns the area and length of a geometry object on the surface of the earth in square meters and meters respectively, using the WGS84 ellipsoid.

The area and length of a point object are both zero. The area of a line object is zero. This function ignores curves. All points are treated as on-curve.

◆ GetContourAreaAndLength()

Result CartoType::Framework::GetContourAreaAndLength ( Geometry aGeometry,
int  aContourIndex,
double%  aArea,
double%  aLength 
)

Returns the area and length of a contour of a geometry object on the surface of the earth in square meters and meters respectively, using the WGS84 ellipsoid.

The area and length of a point object are both zero. The area of a line object is zero. This function ignores curves. All points are treated as on-curve.

◆ GetHeights()

Result CartoType::Framework::GetHeights ( array< double >^  aX,
array< double >^  aY,
array< int >^  aTerrainHeightArray,
CoordType  aCoordType 
)

Finds the heights of a set of points in the specified coordinate type. Heights are returned in metres.

The layer 'terrain-height-metres' is used by preference. It contains heights to metre precision. If that layer is not available, the layer 'terrain-height-feet' is used, which contains heights to 100-foot precision. Unknown heights are set to -32768.

◆ HandleQuery()

array< Byte > ^ CartoType::Framework::HandleQuery ( String^  aQuery,
array< Byte >^  aData 
)

Handles a query sent over a communication system such as HTTP. The query requests data from the main map database owned by this framework, which must be a CTM1 database.

The query is a sequence of key-value pairs separated by ampersand characters. The return value depends on the query, and can be interpreted by the online CTM1 accessor: see the OnlineType1MapDataAccessor class.

Return values are serialised binary data compressed using zlib, preceded by the uncompressed length, written using OutputStream::WriteUint. An uncompressed length of UINT32_MAX signals an error, in which case the error code and error message follow as an unsigned integer and a UTF-8 string.

◆ Height()

int CartoType::Framework::Height ( double  aX,
double  aY,
CoordType  aCoordType 
)

Returns the height in metres at a single point, or -32768 if it is unavailable.

The layer 'terrain-height-metres' is used by preference. It contains heights to metre precision. If that layer is not available, the layer 'terrain-height-feet' is used, which contains heights to 100-foot precision.

◆ InsertCircleMapObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertCircleMapObject ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aLayerName,
double  aCenterX,
double  aCenterY,
CoordType  aCenterCoordType,

CoordType  aRadiusCoordType,
String^  aStringAttributes,
FeatureInfo aFeatureInfo,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts a circle map object into one of the maps, identifying the map by its handle. If aMapHandle is zero the in-memory map used for routing is used.

If aFeatureInfo is null the default feature info is used (unknown non-route). The circle is defined by its center and radius, which may be in different coordinate systems. It is often convenient to supply a point in degrees long/lat and its radius in map meters. Uses the supplied ID if aId is non-null, otherwise generates an ID. Returns the ID in aId. This function fails if the map is not writable.

◆ InsertCopyOfMapObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertCopyOfMapObject ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aLayerName,
MapObject aObject,
double  aEnvelopeRadius,
CoordType  aRadiusCoordType,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts an object by copying an existing object.

If aEnvelopeRadius is greater than zero, convert the object to an envelope using the specified radius. Use the supplied ID if aId is non-zero, otherwise generate an ID. Return the ID in aId. This function fails if the map is not writable.

◆ InsertEllipseMapObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertEllipseMapObject ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aLayerName,
double  aCenterX,
double  aCenterY,
CoordType  aCenterCoordType,
double  aRadiusX,
double  aRadiusY,
CoordType  aRadiusCoordType,
double  aRotationDegrees,
String^  aStringAttributes,
FeatureInfo aFeatureInfo,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts an ellipse map object into one of the maps, identifying the map by its handle. If aMapHandle is zero the in-memory map used for routing is used.

If aFeatureInfo is null the default feature info is used (unknown non-route). The ellipse is defined by its center and radii, which may be in different coordinate systems, and its rotation in degrees. It is often convenient to supply a point in degrees long/lat and radii in map meters. Uses the supplied ID if aId is non-null, otherwise generates an ID. Returns the ID in aId. This function fails if the map is not writable.

◆ InsertEnvelopeMapObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertEnvelopeMapObject ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aLayerName,
Geometry aGeometry,
double  aRadius,
CoordType  aRadiusCoordType,
String^  aStringAttributes,
FeatureInfo aFeatureInfo,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts a map object that is an envelope around some geometry, at a radius of aRadius; it can also be regarded as a stroke drawn along the path with a stroke width of twice aRadius.

The geometry and the radius may use different coordinate systems. It is often convenient to supply the geometry in degrees long/lat and its radius in map meters. If aFeatureInfo is null the default feature is used (unknown non-route). Uses the supplied ID if aId is non-zero, otherwise generates an ID. Returns the ID in aId. This function fails if the map database is not writable.

◆ InsertMapObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertMapObject ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aLayerName,
Geometry aGeometry,
String^  aStringAttributes,
FeatureInfo aFeatureInfo,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts a map object into one of the writable maps. The type of the map object (point, line or polygon) is deduced from the geometry object. If aMapHandle is zero the in-memory map used for routing is used.

If aFeatureInfo is null the default feature info is used (unknown non-route). Uses the supplied ID if aId is non-zero, otherwise generates an ID and returns it in aId. This function fails if the map is not writable.

◆ InsertPointMapObject()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertPointMapObject ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aLayerName,
double  aX,
double  aY,
CoordType  aCoordType,
String^  aStringAttributes,
FeatureInfo aFeatureInfo,
Int64%  aId,
bool  aReplace 
)

Inserts a point object into one of the writable maps, identifying it by its handle. If aMapHandle is zero the in-memory map used for routing is used.

If aFeatureInfo is null the default feature info is used (unknown non-route).
Uses the supplied ID if aId is non-zero, otherwise generates an ID. Returns the ID in aId. This function fails if the map is not writable.

◆ InsertPushPin()

Result CartoType::Framework::InsertPushPin ( double  aX,
double  aY,
CoordType  aCoordType,
String^  aStringAttributes,
String^  aColor,
int  aIconCharacter,
Int64%  aId 
)

Inserts a pushpin: a point object belonging to the 'pushpin' layer. The pushpin is inserted into the built-in modifiable map.

If aColor is not empty it is used as the _color attribute, which, in the standard style sheet, causes the pushpin icon to be drawn in that color instead of the standard color.

If aIconCharacter is not zero it is used to set the _iconText attributes, which, in the standard style sheet, causes that character to be used as an icon. The MapKeyIcons font is supplied with CartoType and contains icons in the private-character range U+E002...U+E0B1.

If aId is zero, a new pushpin is inserted and its ID is returned in aId. If aId is non-zero, an existing pushpin with the specified ID, if any exists, is replaced.

◆ LoadIcon()

Result CartoType::Framework::LoadIcon ( String^  aFileName,
String^  aId,
int  aHotSpotX,
int  aHotSpotY,
int  aLabelX,
int  aLabelY 
)

Loads an icon from a file. It will be used whenever the ID aId is referenced in the style sheet, overriding any icon specified in the style sheet.

The icon file may be in PNG or JPEG format.

(aHotSpotX,aHotSpotY) is the point, relative to the top left corner of the icon, that should be made to coincide with the point of interest marked by the icon.

(aLabelX,aLabelY) is the point, relative to the hot spot, at which the center of the baseline of any label text is placed.

◆ LoadNavigationData()

Result CartoType::Framework::LoadNavigationData ( )

Loads navigation data for the current map.

This function need not be called; if it is not called, navigation data will be loaded automatically when it is first needed. It is provided so that the time overhead of loading navigation data can be incurred at a predictable stage, for example at application startup.

No error is returned if navigation data has already been loaded.

By default, serialized navigation data is used. That behavior can be changed by calling UseSerializedNavigationData.

◆ MutuallyAccessible()

bool CartoType::Framework::MutuallyAccessible ( Result aResult,
array< PointValue >^  aPointArray,
CoordType  aCoordType,
array< int >^  aGroupArray 
)

Determines the mutual accessibility of a set of points for routing purposes, using the current routing profile. This function is implemented only for the turn-expanded router.

If aGroupArray is non-null it is filled with the connectivity group IDs of the points. A set of points that is mutually accessible will have identical non-zero group IDs. A group ID of zero indicates that a point is not near enough to a road or other routable segment. Group IDs are ordered by group sizes. Group 1 is the group with the largest number of connected route nodes, therefore in general a point needs to be in group 1 to take part in routing.

◆ Navigate()

Result CartoType::Framework::Navigate ( int  aValidity,
double  aTime,
double  aLong,
double  aLat,
double  aSpeed,
double  aBearing,
double  aHeight 
)

Updates the vehicle position and, if navigating, updates the navigation state.

In order to implement turn-by-turn navigation, you should call Navigate() at frequent intervals (once per second is good enough) after creating a route using StartNavigation(), ReadRouteFromXml(), etc.

When not navigating, you may call this function to update the vehicle position if necessary (i.e., if the current follow mode displays the vehicle position: see SetFollowMode()).

aValidity is a set of bit flags, ORed together, which determines which of the other parameters are valid. The bit flags are the constants ValidityFlag.Time, ValidityFlag.Position, etc. For normal navigation not all the data is necessary: you need supply the time and position only. Other data, if available, helps the navigation system decide which road the vehicle is on, and extrapolate positions. The height (elevation above sea level) is not currently used.

aTime is the time in seconds. Any consistent time representation may be used (e.g., the unix timestamp format of the time in seconds since midnight, 1st Jan 1970); the absolute time does not matter as long as times can be subtracted to give a difference in seconds.

aLong and aLat are the location in degrees longitude and latitude, using the WGS84 datum.

aSpeed is the speed in kilometres per hour.

aBearing is the true course in degrees, where 0 is north, and degrees increase clockwise; 90 is east, 180 is south, and 270 is west.

aHeight is the height above sea level in metres.

If the position is invalid, Navigate() guesses the position by extrapolating from the current speed, if known, and the previous position.

After Navigate() has been called, the map position, rotation or zoom will change according to the current follow mode (see SetFollowMode()).

If you are not using graphics acceleration you should redraw the map after calling this function.

◆ Range()

Geometry ^ CartoType::Framework::Range ( RouteProfile aProfile,
double  aX,
double  aY,
CoordType  aCoordType,
double  aTimeOrDistance,
bool  aIsTime 
)

Returns the range: a polygon containing the area reachable within a certain time in seconds or distance in meters.

Uses the supplied route profile if it is non-null, otherwise the current profile. If a time is supplied, the profile's bonuses and penalties are suppressed. If a distance is supplied, shortest routes are used. You can optionally insert the returned Geometry object into the map using InsertMapObject.

◆ ReadGpx()

Result CartoType::Framework::ReadGpx ( int  aMapHandle,
String^  aFileName 
)

Reads route and track objects from a GPX file and inserts them into the map identified by aMapHandle. This function fails if the map is not writable.

Waypoint objects (wpt) are made into points in the gpx/wpt layer. Route objects (rte) are made into lines in the gpx/rte layer. Track objects (trk) are made into lines in the gpx/trk layer.

◆ ReadRouteFromXml()

Result CartoType::Framework::ReadRouteFromXml ( String^  aFileNameOrData,
bool  aReplace 
)

Reads a route from XML (a GPX file or a CartoType route file) and displays it.

aFileNameOrData is treated as XML data if it starts with a less-than sign.

If aReplace is true, delete all current routes, add the new route and make its profile the current profile. If aReplace is false, append the new route to the list of current routes.

Appending a route fails if the new route has a different start and end point, or intermediate waypoints, from the current routes.

This function resets the navigation state and enables navigation.

◆ ReloadStyleSheet()

Result CartoType::Framework::ReloadStyleSheet ( int  aIndex)

Reloads a sheet from the file it was originally loaded from.

This function can be used to apply changes after a style sheet is modified. The index aIndex determines which style sheet is reloaded: 0 means the main style sheet, and numbers from 1 up refer to extra style sheets. Only style sheets loaded from files can be reloaded.

◆ SetBuiltInProfile()

Result CartoType::Framework::SetBuiltInProfile ( int  aIndex)

Selects a built-in routing profile by its index.

Routers allowing an arbitrary profile to be set have no built-in profiles. The contraction hierarchy router has one or more built-in profiles.

◆ SetCase()

String ^ CartoType::Framework::SetCase ( String^  aString,
LetterCase  aCase 
)

Sets the letter case of a string.

Supports all UTF-16 characters. Uses the title-case exception dictionary to prevent words like 'of' being capitalised. Returns the modified string. Does not change aString.

◆ SetMainProfile()

Result CartoType::Framework::SetMainProfile ( RouteProfile aProfile)

Sets the main routing profile.

If you do not call this function, the standard profile for private car routing is used.

This function has no effect if routing is performed on a map with a built-in contraction-hierarchy routing table (created using makemap /route=ch), because such a table is created using one or more fixed routing profiles which can be set in makemap. Use SetBuiltInProfile for contraction hierarchy routing.

◆ SetNearbyObjectWarning()

int CartoType::Framework::SetNearbyObjectWarning ( int  aId,
String^  aLayer,
String^  aCondition,
double  aMaxDistance,
int  aMaxObjectCount 
)

Adds or replaces a nearby object warning.

Objects found are added to the 'nearby' layer while the warning is in force. The attribute '_warning=0' is set.

Objects in aLayer, satisfying aCondition if it is not empty, and within aMaxDistance of the current point, are highlighted. The parameter aLayer may contain wild cards or end in a '/' sign.

The parameter aMaxObjectCount is the maximum number of objects to be found, which is clamped to the range 0...1024. If it is zero, the default of 32 is used. If more objects are actually found, the closest ones are used.

If aId is zero, a new warning is created. If aId is non-zero, the existing warning if any with an ID of aId is replaced. The ID of the new or replaced warning is returned. If aMaxDistance, which is in meters, is less than or equal to zero, it is set to the default distance of 1000, or 1km.

Returns 0 if no warning was created, which occurs if aLayer was empty, or the navigation system could not be created.

◆ SetStyleSheet()

Result CartoType::Framework::SetStyleSheet ( array< Byte >^  aData,
int  aIndex 
)

Sets a style sheet by loading it from data in memory.

The index aIndex determines which style sheet to replace: 0 means the main style sheet, and numbers from 1 up refer to extra style sheets.

◆ SetTileOverSizeZoomLevels()

int CartoType::Framework::SetTileOverSizeZoomLevels ( int  aLevels)

The number of zoom levels by which to zoom out when creating a tile bitmap returned by TileBitmap().

The number may be 0, 1, or 2. If it is 0, each tile is self-contained. If it is 1, each tile is cut from a larger tile containing four tiles. If it is 2, each tile is cut from a larger tile containing sixteen tiles. The values 1 and 2 are useful in allowing longer labels to be used when creating small tiles; if not, many street labels will not be drawn because the street is cut in two by the tile border and the resulting sections are too short.

Returns the previous number of levels.

◆ SetTurnInstructionText()

void CartoType::Framework::SetTurnInstructionText ( String^  aText)

Sets the instruction to be displayed for the current turn, overriding automatically generated instructions.

To revert to automatically generated instructions, call this function with empty or null text. This function has no effect if turn instructions have not been created using SetTurnInstructions, or have been disabled by calling EnableTurnInstructions(false).

◆ SetVehicleTypeWarning()

int CartoType::Framework::SetVehicleTypeWarning ( double  aMaxDistance,
int  aMaxObjectCount 
)

Adds a vehicle type warning and returns its ID. Road sections illegal for the current vehicle weight, dimensions or cargo type are found.

Objects found are added to the 'nearby' layer while the warning is in force. The attribute '_warning=1' is set.

The parameter aMaxObjectCount is the maximum number of objects to be found, which is clamped to the range 0...1024. If it is zero, the default of 32 is used. If more objects are actually found, the closest ones are used.

If there is already a vehicle type warning it is replaced by this one.

Returns 0 if no warning was created, which occurs if aLayer was empty, or the navigation system could not be created.

◆ SetViewLimits()

Result CartoType::Framework::SetViewLimits ( double  aMinScaleDenominator,
double  aMaxScaleDenominator,
Geometry aPanArea 
)

Sets the limits to zooming and panning.

Zooming is restricted to the range between aMinScaleDenominator and aMaxScaleDenominator, and panning is restricted so that the edges of the display always touch the bounds of aPanArea.

Use the value zero to remove either or both of the two zoom limits. Use an empty (not null) geometry object to remove panning limits. Use a null geometry object to limit panning to the extent of the map.

◆ TimeAndDistanceMatrix()

TimeAndDistanceMatrix ^ CartoType::Framework::TimeAndDistanceMatrix ( Result aResult,
array< PointValue >^  aFrom,
array< PointValue >^  aTo,
CoordType  aCoordType 
)

Returns a vector of route times in seconds and distances in metres from aFrom to all points in aTo.

If routing fails for any pair of points the time and distance are set to UINT32_MAX. It is legal for aFrom to refer to the same vector as aTo. Times and distances where the start and end point are the same are set to zero. The returned vector contains (F * T * 2) entries, where F and T are the sizes of aFrom and aTo. The time for the route from aFrom[i] to aTo[j] is in entry (i * T * 2 + j) and the distance is in entry (i * T * 2 + j + 1).

◆ UseRoute()

Result CartoType::Framework::UseRoute ( Route aRoute,
bool  aReplace 
)

Use an existing route and display it.

If aReplace is true, delete all current routes and add the new route. If aReplace is false, append the new route to the list of current routes.

Appending a route fails if the new route has a different start and end point, or intermediate waypoints, from the current routes.

This function resets the navigation state.

◆ ZoomAt()

Result CartoType::Framework::ZoomAt ( double  aZoomFactor,
double  aX,
double  aY,
CoordType  aCoordType 
)

Zooms in by a specified zoom factor, or zooms out if the zoom factor is less than 1, centering the zoom at the specified position, so that it remains at the same place on the display.

This function does not zoom in beyond the minimum scale denominator (1:500) or zoom out beyond the maximum scale denominator (1:1,000,000,000) or beyond a size where the map occupies the whole display.

Property Documentation

◆ ActualRouterType

RouterType CartoType::Framework::ActualRouterType
get

The actual router type.

If route data has been loaded for the current map or maps, returns the actual router type in use, which may not be the same as the preferred router type, because some router types are not available for certain types of data.

If the route data has not been loaded, returns RouterType.Default. Route data is loaded either when the first route is constructed, or when LoadNavigationData is called.

◆ BlendStyleSet

BlendStyleSet^ CartoType::Framework::BlendStyleSet
getset

The blend style. To remove the current blend style, set it to null or empty.

If night mode is on, night mode is turned off and replaced by the specified blend style or by no blend style.

◆ BuiltInProfileCount

int CartoType::Framework::BuiltInProfileCount
get

Returns the number of built-in routing profiles owned by the router.

This function returns zero for routers allowing an arbitrary profile to be set, and one or greater for the contraction hierarchy router, which stores one or more fixed profiles.

◆ ContinuationTurn

Turn^ CartoType::Framework::ContinuationTurn
get

The continuation turn during navigation.

The continuation turn, if non-any, signals that there is an 'ahead' or 'continue' turn before the first turn, so that the navigation system can show that no turn is required at the next junction or adjoining minor road. Its Distance property is the distance from the current position to the continuation turn.

◆ FirstTurn

Turn^ CartoType::Framework::FirstTurn
get

The first turn during navigation.

The first turn is the first significant turn after the current position, ignoring 'ahead' and 'continue' turns. If its type is None there are no remaining significant turns. Its Distance property is the distance from the current position to the first turn or the arrival point.

◆ FixedLabels

bool CartoType::Framework::FixedLabels
getset

True if labels are drawn, as far as possible, in fixed positions, and not moved when the map is panned.

*‍/

◆ LocationMatchParam

LocationMatchParam^ CartoType::Framework::LocationMatchParam
getset

The current location match parameters.

These parameters are used when creating routes in functions which do not receive explicit location match parameters. In functions which do receive location match parameters, any parameters with the value 0 are replaced by the current location match parameters set by this function.

◆ NightModeColor

Color CartoType::Framework::NightModeColor
getset

The night mode color, which should be a dark color (although this is not enforced).

To set a custom blend fraction, use the alpha value. For example, set the color's alpha value to 153 to blend the night mode color with a style color in the ratio 0.6 : 0.4 (153/255 = 0.6). Use an alpha value of 255 to get the default blend fraction.

Roads use the night mode color blended with 50% white, and half the specified blend fraction. This increases contrast between roads and other features.

◆ PreferredRouterType

RouterType CartoType::Framework::PreferredRouterType
getset

The preferred type of router to be used for calculating routes.

Different routers have various advantages and disadvantages, such as using more or less memory, being faster or slower, or producing more useful routes.

Setting the preferred router type causes navigation data to be unloaded if the current navigation data uses a different type of router.

◆ SecondTurn

Turn^ CartoType::Framework::SecondTurn
get

The second turn during navigation.

The second turn, if any, indicates that there is a significant turn 100 metres or less after the first turn. Its Distance property is the distance from the first turn to the second turn.
