SqlGeometry.STSymDifference Method

Returns an object that represents all points that are either in one SqlGeometry instance or another SqlGeometry instance, but not those points that lie in both instances.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Types
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Types (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Types.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic := True, IsPrecise := False)> _
Public Function STSymDifference ( _
    other As SqlGeometry _
) As SqlGeometry
'Usage
Dim instance As SqlGeometry
Dim other As SqlGeometry
Dim returnValue As SqlGeometry

returnValue = instance.STSymDifference(other)
[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)]
public SqlGeometry STSymDifference(
    SqlGeometry other
)
[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)]
public:
SqlGeometry^ STSymDifference(
    SqlGeometry^ other
)
[<SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)>]
member STSymDifference : 
        other:SqlGeometry -> SqlGeometry
public function STSymDifference(
    other : SqlGeometry
) : SqlGeometry

Parameters

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Types.SqlGeometry
A SqlGeometry object that represents all points in the calling SqlGeometry and the specified SqlGeometry instances that are not present in both instances..

Remarks

This method always returns nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the spatial reference IDs (SRIDs) of the SqlGeometry instances do not match.
