GetWaypoints Method

Gets all waypoints from the GPS

Syntax

[Visual Basic]
object.GetWaypoints()

[C#]
object.GetWaypoints()

[C++]
object->GetWaypoints()

Parameters

object

An object expression that evaluates to a GPSToolKit object.

Return Value

A WaypointCollection object containing all the waypoints in the GPS

Remarks

  • This method returns every waypoint stored in the GPS.
  • This method is only supported when using the Garmin protocol.
  • It is not possible to delete a waypoint programmatically; deleting a waypoint can only be done from the GPS unit.
  • If there are many waypoints in the GPS, this method may take some time to execute.

Errors

If using the NMEA 0183 protocol, this method will return a NotSupportedException exception.

' Get all waypoints in the GPS
Dim GPSWaypoints As WaypointCollection
GPSWaypoints = myGPSToolKit.GetWaypoints()

// Get all waypoints in the GPS
