FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

NUM_OF_EDGES

The number of edges in the GDX Loop.

EDGES

Array, dimensioned to [NUM_OF_EDGES], of structures containing edge sense and edge database pointer information.

PDX_TRUE

The sense of this segment of the loop agrees with the defining GDX Edge

PDX_FALSE

The sense of this segment of the loop disagrees with the defining GDX Edge

EDGE

The database pointer of the GDX Edge.

Restrictions

The GDX Edge is subject to the following restrictions: NUM_OF_EDGES > 0
