IClusterer.Items Property

Returns the collection of cluster representatives.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraMap

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraMap.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Map

Declaration

MapItemCollection Items { get; }

Property Value

Type Description
MapItemCollection

A MapItemCollection object.

Example

To implement a custom clusterer, design a class implementing the IClusterer interface and its IClusterer.Clusterize and IClusterer.SetOwner abstract methods, and IClusterer.Items and IClusterer.IsBusyproperties.

In this example, the CURE clustering method is implemented. Note that it has a high algorithmic complexity.

Note

  • The owner adapter’s IMapDataAdapter.OnClustered method should be called to notify the Adapter that clustering is finished.
  • When creating a cluster representative collection, send an owner as the constructor argument.
