4.21 SDO_TOPO_MAP.GET_EDGE_NODES

Format

SDO_TOPO_MAP.GET_EDGE_NODES(     
  topology IN VARCHAR2,      
  topo_map IN VARCHAR2,      
  edge_id  IN NUMBER      
) RETURN SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY;

Description

Returns an array with the ID numbers of the start and end nodes on the specified edge.

Parameters

topology

Name of the topology that contains the edge, or a null value, as explained in Using GET_xxx Topology Functions. Must not exceed 20 characters.

topo_map

Name of the TopoMap object, or a null value, as explained in Using GET_xxx Topology Functions. (TopoMap objects are explained in TopoMap Objects.)

edge_id

Edge ID value of the edge.

Usage Notes

The topology or topo_map parameter should specify a valid name, as explained in Using GET_xxx Topology Functions.

If the edge starts and ends at a node, the ID number of the node is the first and last number in the array.

This function has no exact equivalent method in the TopoMap class of the client-side Java API (described in Topology Data Model Java Interface). The getEdge method returns a Java edge object of the oracle.spatial.topo.Edge class.

Examples

The following example returns the ID numbers of the nodes on the edge whose edge ID value is 1. The returned array contains two nodes ID numbers, both of them 1 (for the same node), because the specified edge starts and ends at the node with node ID 1 and has a loop edge. (The example refers to definitions and data from Topology Built from Topology Data.)

SELECT SDO_TOPO_MAP.GET_EDGE_NODES(null, 'CITY_DATA_TOPOMAP', 1) FROM DUAL;
 
SDO_TOPO_MAP.GET_EDGE_NODES(NULL,'CITY_DATA_TOPOMAP',1)
