Returns a geometry instance from an Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Well-Known Text (WKT) representation augmented with any Z (elevation) and M (measure) values carried by the instance.
STMLineFromText ( 'multilinestring_tagged_text' , SRID )
multilinestring_tagged_text
Is the WKT representation of the geometryMultiLineString instance you wish to return. multilinestring_tagged_text is an nvarchar(max) expression.
SRID
Is an int expression representing the spatial reference ID (SRID) of the geometryMultiLineString instance you wish to return.
SQL Server return type: geometry
CLR return type: SqlGeometry
OGC type: MultiLineString
This method will throw a FormatException if the input is not well-formatted.
The following example uses STMLineFromText()
to create a geometry
instance.
DECLARE @g geometry;
SET @g = geometry::STMLineFromText('MULTILINESTRING ((100 100, 200 200), (3 4, 7 8, 10 10))', 0);
SELECT @g.ToString();
