Creates a vector with length of 0.0.

QgsVector() [2/2]

QgsVector::QgsVector ( double  x, double  y  )

inline

Constructor for QgsVector taking x and y component values.

Parameters

Member Function Documentation

angle() [1/2]

double QgsVector::angle ( ) const

inline

Returns the angle of the vector in radians.

Definition at line 168 of file qgsvector.h.

angle() [2/2]

double QgsVector::angle ( QgsVector  v ) const
