ArcEngine开发：浅谈IPointCollection

IPointCollection接口非常灵活，在ArcEngine开发中经常要用到。下面来介绍下它的特性。

IPointCollection初始化，可以通过MultipointClass、PolylineClass、PolygonClass对象定义。

IPointCollection pPointCollection1 = new MultipointClass();
IPointCollection pPointCollection2 = new PolylineClass();
IPointCollection pPointCollection3 = new PolygonClass();

且通过as 与IMultipoint、Ipolyline、Ipolygon互相转换。

IMultipoint pMuPoint = pPointCollection1 as IMultipoint;
IPolyline  pPolyline = pPointCollection2 as IPolyline  ;
IPolygon    pPolygon = pPointCollection3 as IPolygon   ;

进而转成IGeometry类型，进而作为对应的几何类型添加到图层中的要素中。

IGeometry pGeometryPolyline = pPolyline as IGeometry;  //仅举一个例子
ITopologicalOperator pTop = pGeometryPolyline as ITopologicalOperator;
pTop.Simplify();
IFeature pFeature = fc.CreateFeature();  //fc为 IFeatureClass对象
pFeature.Shape = pGeometryPolyline;

其里面存储的是各个顶点的坐标（IPoint类型），可通过Point[]当做数组来调用。

 List<IPoint> pList = new List<IPoint>();
 for (int t = 0; t < pc.PointCount; t++)
 {
      pList.Add(pc.Point[t]);
      //pList.Insert(0,pc.Point[t]);
 }

当你以为它就是数组时，其实它还能这样访问pc.Point[-1]。pc.Point[-1]与pc.Point[PointCount-1]调用的是同一个点。然后依次类推。但是它无法访问pc.Point[PointCount]，提示超出范围。
