in 10.2.6, and possibly also 10.2.3, I experience that
EsriRuntimeQt::Route::totalKilometers() 'consistently' returns miles, not kilometers?
Luckily, ER::GeometryEngine::geodesicLength
seems to give the correct result, or at least the same value I can measure with Google Earth.
In fact, calling route.totalMiles() gives same value that totalKilometers() gives..?
In a way, I'm impressed with ESRI trying to reconcile the age-old difference between metric and imperial units, with this initiative.
I just suspect, that it takes someone on the scale of Napoleon to achieve change on that level.
On the positive side, route.totalMiles() seems to return a correct value, so it's about 50% correct.
I am running off these data:
https:_//route.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/Route/NAServer/Route_World
http:_//services.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer
I am running on msvc2013, 32bit, and based in Europe;
the example was measured in Iceland (on map).
I'm curious if it is related to something in my setup, or if any others experience similar.. Seems like a weird bug people would react to.
My queries look like this:
bool bLocal = ( !UseEsri::useOnlineRouting() ); //!NodeLinkDlg_Gis::OnlineRoutingHack);
if (bLocal) {
#ifdef HACK_10_2_3
ER::LocalRouteTaskParameters lparameters = HACK_10_2_6_STAR lroutingTask.defaultParameters();
#else // > 10.2.3:
ER::RouteTaskParameters& lparameters = HACK_10_2_6_STAR lroutingTask.defaultParameters();
#endif // HACK_10_2_3
lparameters.setOutSpatialReference(spatRef);
lparameters.setOutputLines(bWithMeasure ? ER::NAOutputLine::TrueShapeWithMeasure : ER::NAOutputLine::TrueShape);
lparameters.setReturnRoutes(true);
lparameters.setStops( HACK_10_2_6_AMP stops);
lroutingTask.solve( HACK_10_2_6_AMP lparameters);
} else { // Online:
