IlvLineStyle: The Line Style Class
You can create your own line styles by requesting
IlvLineStyle resource objects from your
IlvDisplay object and specifying the way dashes are to be drawn.
A line style is an array of unsigned characters returned by the member function
getDashes. The length of the array is returned by the
getCount member function. This array must not be modified or deleted by the user.
Starting with the “pen down,” Rogue Wave® Views draws the number of foreground-colored pixels that is indicated by the first element of the
getDashes array. Then, the second element indicates the number of pixels to be skipped before the drawing starts up again until the array is completely read. Then, the loop begins again. The
getOffset member function returns the number of pixels to be skipped before the loop restarts.

IlvDisplay:
IlvLineStyle* getLineStyle(IlUShort count,
const unsigned char* dashes,
IlUShort offset = 0);
IlvLineStyle* getLineStyle(const char* name) const;
