          *DEPRECATED* Converts a region object into a string.

regRegionString(reg)

The interfaces described in this help file have been deprecated. CIAO 4.10 includes a new object based interface which should be used instead of these routines. This document is provided for legacy support.

The regRegionString returns a string representation of the region.

The region module is not available by default; see "ahelp region" for information on loading the module.

>>> from region import *
>>> r1 = regParse("circle(10,10,4)")
>>> print(regRegionString(r1))
Circle(10,10,4)
>>> r2 = regParse("circle(10,10,4)-rect(4,2,5,4)")
>>> print(regRegionString(r2))
Circle(10,10,4)&!Rectangle(4,2,5,4)

See the bugs page for the region library on the CIAO website for an up-to-date listing of known bugs.
