SqlGeometry.MakeValid Method

Converts an invalid SqlGeometry instance into a SqlGeometry instance with a valid Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) type.

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

Syntax

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

returnValue = instance.MakeValid()

[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)]
public SqlGeometry MakeValid()

[SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)]
public:
SqlGeometry^ MakeValid()

[<SqlMethodAttribute(IsDeterministic = true, IsPrecise = false)>]
member MakeValid : unit -> SqlGeometry

public function MakeValid() : SqlGeometry

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Types.SqlGeometry
A SqlGeometry value with a valid OGC type.

Remarks

This method may cause a change in the type of the SqlGeometry instance, as well as cause the points of a SqlGeometry instance to shift slightly.
