ST_PointFromText takes a well-known text representation of type point and a spatial reference system identity and returns a point.
Syntax
db2gse.ST_PointFromText(pointTaggedText Varchar(4000), cr db2gse.coordref)
Return type
db2gse.ST_Point
Examples
The following CREATE TABLE statement creates the POINT_TEST table, which has a single point column, PT1.
CREATE TABLE POINT_TEST (pt1 db2gse.ST_Point)
Before the INSERT statement inserts the point into the PT1 column, the ST_PointFromText function converts the point text coordinates to the point format.
INSERT INTO POINT_TEST VALUES ( db2gse.ST_PointFromText ('point(10.01 20.03)', db2gse.coordref()..srid(0)))
