GeoCOM Reference Manual
String data type
Character and string types are replaced by
data types of C/C++ and VBA are not directly interchangeable, the
programmer has to take certain care of the necessary pre- and post-
processing of variables of this data type. Please refer to the example below.
Enumeration data type
Conceptually VBA does not have enumeration data types. Therefore,
data types will be used instead. The enumeration values will be defined by
constants. Using the numerical value is also valid. Notice that some of the
enumeration values are reserved words in VBA. That is why we had to
define different identifiers. Enumerated return values are numerical values
and correspond to the position of the enumeration value in the C/C++-
definition. For clarification, also the numerical values are given in the
description of an enumeration data type.
Structures and Arrays
They are defined as in C/C++.
Example for Enumeration Data Types and Structures
The following example gives the data type declaration and the procedure
declaration usually used in this manual for an example procedure
