You can now change the roundness of a TLcdRoundedPolygon or TLcdRoundedPolyline using their new setRoundness() methods.

Note that you should follow the usual procedure for changing elements in a model as described in the section Changing data in a LuciadLightspeed model of the Threading and locking in LuciadLightspeed article: try (TLcdLockUtil.Lock lock = TLcdLockUtil.writeLock(model)) { roundedElement.setRoundness(0.6); model.elementChanged(roundedElement, FIRE_LATER); } finally { model.fireCollectedModelChanges(); }

LCD-14062
The TLcdNetCDFModelDecoder now correctly handles GRIB2 files with complex packing when groups have a group width of 0. Previously, the data points in such groups were always interpreted as containing missing values. With this fix, the decoder checks the group reference value to determine whether the data points should be treated as valid values or as missing. As a result, some previously missing values may now appear as actual data.

New featureLuciadFusion

You can now configure the WMTS tile matrix sets used by your WMTS services, using the LuciadFusion Studio REST API. We have introduced new REST API endpoints that enable you to configure the tile matrix sets programmatically.

The default tile matrix sets that will be used for new WMTS Services are now pre-populated in the database. They include:

  • GoogleMapsCompatible
  • GlobalCRS84Pixel
  • GlobalCRS84Scale
  • WorldCRS84Quad
  • WGS84
  • EPSG3395TiledMercator
  • NSGArcticNorthUPSTile - earlier versions used "NSG Arctic (North) UPS Tile"
  • NSGArcticSouthUPSTile - earlier versions used "NSG Arctic (South) UPS Tile"

GlobalCRS84Pixel and GlobalCRS84Scale are newly added tile matrix sets in this release.

The specification for these tile matrix sets is consistent with OGC API - Tiles - Part 1: Core and OGC Two Dimensional Tile Matrix Set and Tile Set Metadata. You can programmatically add, update, and remove WMTS tile matrix sets that can be used by your WMTS services using the LuciadFusion Studio REST API. See How to configure the WMTS tile matrix sets for more information.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

Added support for defining custom properties that contain a 2D geometry.
To use this feature, you can use the following methods in the class TLfnCustomPropertyDefinitions:

  • addGeometry2DProperty(String),
  • addGeometry2DProperty(String, String, boolean).

Custom geometry2D properties can be set and obtained for a specific Data using the LuciadFusion Studio REST API. The PATCH /api/data/{id} endpoint allows users to set the custom geometry2D properties for a Data. The GET /api/data/{id} endpoint allows users to obtain the custom geometry2D properties for a Data. The PUT /api/data/{id}/custom-properties/{customPropertyName} endpoint allows users to update the value of a custom geometry2D property for a Data.

In the web application, you can find a new tab Publish Info for each WFS service, enabling you to configure the WFS feature types for a selected service. Additionally, we have introduced new REST API endpoints that enable you to configure the feature types programmatically:

  • GET /api/services/{serviceId}/products/{productId}: Retrieve the current feature type information, included in the publishInfo property, for a specific WFS Service and Product.
  • PUT /api/services/{serviceId}/products/{productId}: Update the feature types by modifying the feature type list in the publishInfo property for a specified WFS Service and Product.

The WFS server has been made more flexible with respect to acceptable geometry types in Transaction requests. A format for which the data model had a TLcdShapeListAnnotation always required a MultiGeometry GML element in the past. This was for example the case for database formats. For such formats, the WFS server now accepts both single geometry types (e.g. Point, LineString or Polygon) and multi geometry types. This improves the interoperability with other WFS-T clients, such as Hexagon's GeoMedia application.

We now pick up the WKT geo-reference, part of the "user coordinate system", inside the LGSx file.

If there is no geo-reference in the file, but you know it and want to apply it, use a .prj file next to your .lgsx file.

Do note that the user coordinate system can only be applied to the panoramic photos, not the HSPC point cloud. This is because we expose the HSPC that is inside the LGSx file as-is directly.

If you don't want to apply the user coordinate system to the panoramas, you can set system property -Dcom.luciad.format.lgsx.useCoordSys=false.

If you have a dataset with user coordinate system and need to apply it to both the panoramas and the point cloud, we advise to apply it on the client.

LuciadFusion Studio now uses a new thread pool to perform preprocessing jobs. Whereas previously, each preprocessing job could create a new thread pool for each running job to execute its asynchronous tasks, now each running preprocessing jobs will reuse the same thread pool to execute its asynchronous tasks. This prevents LuciadFusion Studio to be overloaded or go out of memory when running multiple preprocessing jobs at the same time.

TLcdNITFModelDecoder#discoverDataSources now provides two data sources.
  • The first data source can be used to decode the NITF data into a georeferenced model, similar to the data source returned in the past. The resulting model can be used to visualize the data in georeferenced GXY or Lightspeed view.
  • The second data source can be used to decode the NITF data into a non-georeferenced model. This model is an ILcdModelTreeNode with a sub-model for each NITF data segment. The resulting model can be used to visualize the data in a GXY view with a CRS:1 reference or to publish the data in a LuciadFusion WMS service that has CRS:1 reference support. This is described in the LuciadFusion article "How to set up a non-georeferenced WMS".

The TLcdIFCModelDecoder returns a feature data model with an ILcdDataObject. The TLcdDataModel of that ILcdDataObject has been changed to align it with the feature data models of other BIM formats. The data model now has:

  • A new property with the name Metadata. This property is a Map and contains the non-categorized metadata of the object as found in the IFC dataset. In previous versions, the ILcdDataObject itself contained this metadata.
  • A new property with the name MetadataGroups. This property is a Map and contains the metadata within the different IfcPropertySets linked to the object in the IFC dataset. In previous versions, an array of IfcPropertySet elements contained this information.

The following image shows an illustration of the new TLcdDataModel (on the right) compared to the old TLcdDataModel (on the left).

The geometry model returned by the TLcdBinzModelDecoder no longer contains the metadata of the objects. Only the FeatureID is retained in the geometry model. This change has an impact on the OGC 3D Tiles generation process: it now stores only the FeatureID inside the batch table. Depending on the amount of metadata inside the Binz dataset, this can lead to a significant reduction in the size of the OGC 3D Tiles output.

The metadata of the objects is still available in the feature data model. The FeatureID in the geometry model can be used to match the objects in the geometry model with the objects in the features model. If you have code that reads out the metadata directly from the OGC 3D Tiles data, you must change this code to read this metadata from the feature data model. The Visualize BIM data article explains this in more detail.

The TLcdBinzModelDecoder returns a feature data model with elements implementing the ILcdDataObject interface. The TLcdDataModel of these elements has been changed to align it with the feature data models of other BIM formats. These changes were made:

  • Added a property with the name Metadata. This new property is a Map and contains the non-categorized metadata of the object as found in the Binz dataset. In previous versions, the ILcdDataObject itself contained this metadata.
  • Removed the RenderId property. This property was used to store the original FeatureID of the feature in the Binz dataset. Instead, a FeatureIDOffset property is stored in the root feature of the model. You can use this property to calculate the original FeatureID by subtracting this offset from the FeatureID property of the object.
  • The features in the model no longer implement the ILcdExtrudedShape interface. Instead, this information can be derived from the Bounds, MinZ and MaxZ properties.

You must change code that reads out this Binz metadata to use this new structure. This snippet shows a code example of how to read the moniker Binz property in a previous version of the model: 

// will no longer work in 2025.0
TLcdBinzModelDecoder decoder = new TLcdBinzModelDecoder();
ILcdModel featuresModel = decoder.decodeSource(new TLcdBIMDataSource("path/to/dataset.binz", FEATURES));
ILcdDataObject feature = (ILcdDataObject) featuresModel.elements().next();
String moniker = (String) feature.getValue("moniker");

To work with the new model, change the code to retrieve the Metadata property first. This property is a Map containing the Binz metadata, like the moniker. This snippet shows how to read this moniker property in the new version of the model: 

TLcdBinzModelDecoder decoder = new TLcdBinzModelDecoder();
ILcdModel featuresModel = decoder.decodeSource(new TLcdBIMDataSource("path/to/dataset.binz", FEATURES));
ILcdDataObject feature = (ILcdDataObject) featuresModel.elements().next();
Map<String, Object> metadata = (Map<String, Object>) feature.getValue("Metadata");
String moniker = (String) metadata.get("moniker");

The RenderId property is no longer available on the features in the model. Instead, you can now calculate it by subtracting the FeatureIDOffset from the FeatureID. This snippet shows a code example of how to accomplish that: 

TLcdBinzModelDecoder decoder = new TLcdBinzModelDecoder();
ILcdModel featuresModel = decoder.decodeSource(new TLcdBIMDataSource("path/to/dataset.binz", FEATURES));

// Get some feature
ILcdDataObject feature = (ILcdDataObject) featuresModel.elements().next();

// Get the root feature
Integer rootFeatureId = ((List<Integer>) feature.getValue("AncestorPath")).get(0);
ILcdDataObject rootFeature = (ILcdDataObject) featuresModel.query(...);

// Calculate the RenderID
Integer featureId = (Integer) feature.getValue("FeatureID");
Integer featureIdOffset = (Integer) rootFeature.getValue("FeatureIDOffset");
Integer renderId = featureID - featureIdOffset;

Casting a Binz feature to an ILcdExtrudedShape now results in a ClassCastException because the feature no longer implements this interface. This snippet shows a code example of how to convert a Binz feature into an ILcdExtrudedShape in the new version of the model: 

TLcdBinzModelDecoder decoder = new TLcdBinzModelDecoder();
ILcdModel featuresModel = decoder.decodeSource(new TLcdBIMDataSource("path/to/dataset.binz", FEATURES));
ILcdDataObject feature = (ILcdDataObject) featuresModel.elements().next();
ILcdExtrudedShape shape = new TLcdExtrudedShape(ALcdShape.fromDomainObject(feature),
                                                (Double) feature.getValue("MinZ"),
                                                (Double) feature.getValue("MaxZ"));

  • External SVG and bitmap icons defined in a PointSymbolizer are now included in a legend.
  • The optional WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters are now taken into account to generate legend icons.
  • An optional LEGEND_OPTIONS parameter is now supported to control the visual appearance of a legend, such as the font and background color. See the sample class samples.wms.server.SLDLegendOptions for the possibilities. Note that this option is currently only supported for WMS GetLegendGraphic requests.
You can find the full implementation in sample code to ease customizations: see samples.wms.server.SLDWMSGetLegendGraphicEncoder and samples.wmts.server.SLDWMTSGetLegendGraphicEncoder.

The LuciadFusion Studio REST API and Java API now offer the capability to create, update, delete and fetch a single custom property at a time.

To perform these operations in Java, the methods getCustomProperty(String) and cloneAsEditableData() have been added to the class TLfnData. Additionally, the class TLfnEditableData has been added which contains the following methods to modify the custom properties: putCustomProperty(String, Object), deleteCustomProperty(String).

To enable LuciadFusion clients applications to perform these operations, the following LuciadFusion REST API endpoints have been added:

HTTP method Path pattern
GET /api/data/{dataId}/custom-properties/{customPropertyName}
PUT /api/data/{dataId}/custom-properties/{customPropertyName}
DELETE /api/data/{dataId}/custom-properties/{customPropertyName}

Non-draped pixel-sized 3D lines with complex strokes are now oriented towards the viewer by default. This behavior can be adapted by using TLspComplexStrokedLineStyle.Builder#orientation(TLspComplexStrokedLineStyle.ComplexStrokeOrientation) and passing TLspComplexStrokedLineStyle.ComplexStrokeOrientation#PARALLEL_TO_EARTH_SURFACE . Draped strokes and world-sized strokes are always oriented parallel to the Earth's surface.

Support for the following EPSG coordinate references has been added. These EPSG references have a vertical datum which is approximated by using EGM2008 as fallback vertical datum. When the fallback behavior is disabled these EPSG references are not supported. For more information see the API documentation of TLcdEPSGReferenceParser.

We enhanced the feature metadata for Binz files by adding the possibility to link back to the original data. We added (a) root feature(s) containing the original binz file location(s). Next to that we added a RenderId property, which is the original FeatureId in the original binz file. Both are especially useful when converting multiple Binz files into a single model using a *.binz.index file in the TLcdBinzModelDecoder.

Changed the log level for problems when decoding IFC, Binz, Revit and Navisworks datasets: if the input dataset contains objects that are incorrect (for example, a circle with a negative radius) or impossible to discretize (for example, a cylinder with zero height), this will no longer appear in the log as ERROR or WARNING messages.
This change affects all BIM data types: IFC, Binz, Revit and Navisworks.

The log level has been changed to DEBUG, so to re-enable the output you can change your log configuration accordingly. Refer to the Logging tutorial for more information.

Fixed the calculation of the resolution of the output cubemap images in TLcdLuciadPanoramaModelEncoder. The new resolution will now be a factor sqrt(2) bigger than the previously, resulting in better image quality but larger output data sets.

To revert to the earlier behaviour, you can use the new setResolutionFactor method with 1 / sqrt(2) as argument.
This setting is also available in the fusion.panoramics.preprocessing section of the LuciadFusion config/fusion.common.yml file.
This setting is also available as commandline option for the panoramaConverter.bat sample (-r|--resolutionFactor).

We aligned the approach for feature metadata between all supported BIM formats. For Binz, this means the adjustment of the naming of the "minZ" and "maxZ" properties in the generated dataModel to "MinZ" and "MaxZ". This affects both the generated geoJson file and the WFS service for features of a BINZ dataset. You could be using the "minZ" and "maxZ" properties to allow automatic fitting to a feature. If you are using the "minZ" and "maxZ" properties in your code, you will need to adjust the property names to "MinZ" and "MaxZ".

Fixed a potential deadlock when modifying the ILcdCollection that is returned by ILspInteractivePaintableLayer#getObjectsWithPaintState, while holding a write lock on that collection. To fix this, ILcdCollection (and by extension ILcdList) now have additional methods that allow specifying an ILcdFireEventMode when performing modifications. By using the ILcdFireEventMode.FIRE_LATER event mode, collection change events are fired after the write lock has been released.

We recommend scanning your codebase for any custom usages of ILspInteractivePaintableLayer#getObjectsWithPaintState and making sure that any modifications to this collection happen within a write lock, while the change events are only fired after that write lock has been released.

The OGC Symbology Encoding (SE) implementation now supports replacing colors in images. This can be achieved by using the SE vendor options colorReplace and colorReplaceTolerance in a TLcdSLDRasterSymbolizer. The new article How to replace a color illustrates this capability with an example.

New featureLuciadFusion

TLcdPixelReplaceOp is a new image operator which replaces a given color or value in an image with another. It can be used, for instance, to remove blank borders around an image by replacing them with a transparent color.

LuciadFusion and LuciadLightspeed users can now visualize ECW images with any number of bands and any bit depth.

New featureReal-time Engine

TLspRadarVideoLayerBuilder now has the ability to work with radar feeds whose angular or radial resolution are variable over time. This requires the user to manually specify the resolution of the visualization, which is then effectively decoupled from that of the data. The new method displayResolution() on the layer builder is used to enable this behavior. If called, the radar video layer will be fully robust against all variations in the resolution of the incoming data.

The following new system properties let users configure reference decoder priority for the following model decoders:

The priority decides whether the model reference decoding is first attempted from the reference information embedded in the data file and then fall back to external reference source files such as WKT (.prj), REF (.ref) and EPSG (*.epsg) in case of an error or vice versa when the other reference decoder priority is selected.

Introduced TLcdDataProperty#getSourceName, which contains the property name as it was defined in the source data. This may differ from the actual name of the property within the TLcdDataType, because that name can contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores, and may therefore have been sanitized.

When building a data type, the source name of a property can be configured with a setter on the TLcdDataPropertyBuilder. Additionally, TLcdDataType#getProperty now also checks this source name when searching a property that matches a given name.

The default TLcdDataModelDisplayNameProvider has also been adapted to use this source name by default, when retrieving a display name for a property.

Finally, The TLcdGeoJsonModelEncoder now uses these source names by default as well, when encoding data objects to GeoJSON features.

The LuciadFusion Studio REST API endpoint GET /api/data/filter now allows filtering Data resources by data categories and keywords.

A LuciadFusion Studio REST API developer can now define custom properties with a limited set of allowed values for the Long data type in addition to the already supported String type. As a result of this:
addLongProperty(String, Set) and addLongProperty(String, String, Set, boolean) methods have been added to the class TLfnCustomPropertyDefinitions.
In addition to the above inclusions to the API, the following addEnumProperty(String, String, Set, boolean) and addEnumProperty(String, Set) methods of the class TLfnCustomPropertyDefinitions have been deprecated in favor of new methods addStringProperty(String, String, Set, boolean) and addStringProperty(String, Set).
It is recommended to use the newly introduced methods instead of the deprecated ones. The deprecated methods will subsequently be removed in one of the future product releases.

As a result of this enhancement the LuciadFusion Studio REST API endpoints GET /api/data/custom-properties and GET /api/data/queryable-propertiesno longer return 'Enum' as a 'type' in a REST API response. They now return the data type as determined by the type of value a custom property can take i.e. Long, Double, Boolean, Date, String. This change is consistent with the behavior of the custom properties which already returned the 'type' as their data type of the values.

A new style class, TLcdMilitarySymbolStyle, has been added to the Military Symbology API. This class can be used to define the symbol style of both APP-6 and MIL-STD-2525 symbols.

The usage is equivalent to the usage of the existing, standard specific style classes (TLcdDefaultAPP6AStyle and TLcdDefaultMS2525bStyle). You can configure a symbol dependent style, by either having your domain objects implement ILcdStyledMilitarySymbol or by defining a default style on your painter providers or layers.

The following methods have been added to configure a TLcdMilitarySymbolStyle on painter providers and layers:

  • TLcdAPP6AGXYPainterProvider.setDefaultMilitarySymbolStyle

We now enable support for vertical datums by default for a number of model decoders. If your services require preprocessing (such as LTS and OGC 3D Tiles) and you encounter issues with vertical datum application, you may need to preprocess the involved data again to ensure correct application of the vertical datum support. Preprocessing again is only necessary if you have other data with vertical datums and observe inconsistencies. Inconsistencies occur when combining the following data:

  • Data which is served by an LTS or OGC 3D Tiles service, which has not applied the vertical datum. This usually occurs because the service was created with an older LuciadFusion version (2023.1 or older), which did not enable vertical datum support by default.
  • Data which is loaded directly into a client application, is served by a service which does not do preprocessing or is served by a new LTS or OGC 3D Tiles service, which has been created in LuciadFusion 2024.0.

More information about enabling support for vertical datums by default is given in the release note for issue LCD-12921.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

LuciadLightspeed and LuciadFusion now increasingly make use of Java's own file and URI handling API to improve reliability, consistency, and portability when handling data sources. This includes, but is not limited to TLcdIOUtil, TLcdInputStreamFactory, and several model decoders. Because of this, the following invalid data source paths may no longer be recognized:
  • The colon ":" is no longer accepted in Windows file names.
  • Spaces are no longer accepted in file URI's. They need to be escaped as described in the URI specification.
Make sure to correct these source names before passing them to the API.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

LCD-12921

The default behavior of a number of model decoders has been changed. We now enable support for vertical datums by default for a number of model decoders. The vertical datum support will cause the appropriate geoid height to be applied to data files of the affected formats, if the data advertises a vertical datum. In previous versions, we ignored the vertical datum advertised by data by default.

Using the geoid will result in the use of more accurate elevation values, at the cost of performance when processing the data.

The following data formats are affected by this change:

  1. DEM: TLcdDEMModelDecoder
  2. DMED/DTED: TLcdDMEDModelDecoder, TLcdDTEDModelDecoder, TLcdDTEDDirectoryModelDecoder
  3. ETOPO: TLcdETOPOModelDecoder
  4. GeoTIFF: TLcdGeoTIFFModelDecoder
  5. LAS/LAZ: TLcdLASModelDecoder
  6. SwissDHM: TLcdSwissDHMMatrixModelDecoder

Because the default behavior has changed for these formats, your data may be painted at a different height, which can cause misalignment with your other layers. For example, you may apply the geoid to points in a LAS file, which causes your LAS points to be painted at a different elevation. If you combine this LAS data with an inaccurate terrain layer, there may be overlap between your LAS points and the terrain layer. You should check that your data is still properly aligned with your other layers after upgrading.

The recommended way to fix such alignment issues is to make sure you use an accurate terrain layer and use the same geoid on all your layers with elevation data. You should also verify that all your elevation data advertises the correct vertical datum. Read our article on Detecting and fixing vertical datum issues for more details.

If you have different behavior then before, and you are sure that the old behavior is preferred, you can revert to the old behavior in the following ways:

  • Disable geoid support for a specific model decoder, by calling the method #setSupportGeoidDatums(boolean)
  • Disable geoid support for all aforementioned model decoders, by setting the system property com.luciad.geodesy.geoidSupport.LEGACY to true.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

Since the upgrade to Spring Security version 6, Spring Security blocks all requests for which no authorization rule is defined. In order to register authorization rules for services in LuciadFusion, a few changes have been made in the LuciadFusion configuration and the ILfnServiceTypeConfiguration interface, which makes it possible to plug in custom service types in LuciadFusion

The documentation changes consist of 2 new properties: fusion.security.serviceAuthenticationRequired and fusion.security.authenticatedEndpoints

  • fusion.security.serviceAuthenticationRequired allows you to globally configure if services published in LuciadFusion require authentication or if anonymous access is permitted.
  • fusion.security.authenticatedEndpoints allows you to override the configuration set by fusion.security.serviceAuthenticationRequired for certain url patterns. This can, for example, be used if you want to allow anonymous access for all services except services of a certain type (wms, wfs, lts, etc)

Additionally we have deprecated the property fusion.accessControl.authenticatedEndpoints. This property used to only have an effect when access control is enabled, it is now replaced by fusion.security.authenticatedEndpoints, which is also active when access control is disabled. If you are using fusion.accessControl.authenticatedEndpoints, this configuration will still be applied, but this property will be removed in a future LuciadFusion release, so we recommend that you replace its usage by fusion.accessControl.authenticatedEndpoints.

We have added the method getEndpointPatterns() to he interface ILfnServiceTypeConfiguration. This method is used to inform the LuciadFusion Security system of which url patterns are handled by the service type implementation.

The LuciadLightspeed and LuciadFusion APIs now use the Jakarta EE 10 API and Jakarta Servlet 6.0 API, where in previous releases the Java EE 7 API and Java Servlet 3.1 API were used. There are a few breaking changes in the new Jakarta Servlet 6.0 API, the main one being a rename of the javax.servlet package to jakarta.servlet. Any LuciadLightspeed or LuciadFusion API that use classes from this package thus contain a corresponding breaking change. The affected classes are mainly the classes implementing the OGC server standards (WM(T)S, WFS, etc). Any compilation errors you encounter related to this change can typically be resolved by performing a find and replace operation.

New featureLuciadFusion

A new configuration option DECODE FAILURE RESOLUTION for crawl jobs in LuciadFusion Studio has been added to provide more flexibility when corrupted or inaccessible data/styles are detected while crawling a data root.

When the configuration option Keep associated Data and Styles is enabled, the crawl job will retain inaccessible or corrupt data/styles on a re-crawl. This also means that the associated Products will keep this data/styles on a subsequent re-crawl. When the valid data/styles is accessible again at a later time, the user will be able to visualize/access it normally as before when requested via an associated OGC service. When the configuration option Delete associated Data and Styles is enabled, the crawl job will delete the inaccessible or corrupt data/styles from all the associated Products. This behavior/configuration is enabled by default.

New featureLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion now supports role-based access control for data resources. You can use the new LuciadFusion REST API to configure data access rules.

Read the access control in LuciadFusion developer guide for more information.

New featureLuciadFusion

The Spring Boot dependencies of LuciadFusion have been upgraded from version 2.1 to version 2.7. This newer version brings numerous new features and fixes. It's advisable to read through the release notes of every version to know what is new, what has changed and what has been deprecated.

Check out our LuciadFusion troubleshooting guide for a list of major changes caused by the Spring Boot upgrade.

New featureLuciadFusion

It is now possible to configure multiple named styles for WMS and WMTS Services. To accomplish this, new endpoints /api/products/{id}/style-sets and /api/products/{id}/data are now part of the REST API. The endpoint /api/products/{id}/styled-data is now deprecated.

You can find more explanation on how to create named styles for WMS and WMTS services within the LuciadFusion REST API Developer Guide webpage.

New featureMaritime Standards

LuciadLightspeed and LuciadFusion now fully support AML V3 object class and attributes modeling, as well as visualization according to the Portrayal Specification 3.0.0, including the proper scale ranges based on the cell levels.

AML V2 data is also still supported.

This change is automatic for AML V2 and V3 data.

Support has been added for an OGC strReplace function in TLcdOGCVendorSpecificFunctions that can replace a pattern in a String property. This function can be used when querying a model (see ILcdModel#query), when creating an OGC Filter or when creating an SLD style.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

LCD-11611
Split packages have been eliminated from all lcd_*.jar files. This improves compatibility with JDK 9 and higher.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The lcd_3dtiles.jar file has been renamed to lcd_tiled3d.jar, so Java can generate an automatic module for it. The name change also applies to the corresponding maven pom file.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

LCD-11985
The vertical view controllers (TLcdVVAltitudeRangeSliderJPanel, TLcdVVStartEndIndexJSlider, and TLcdVVStartEndIndexJSlider) no longer reset when the vertical view's ILcdVVModel fires a change event. Usually those controllers only need to be reset when the view displays an entirely different profile. You can achieve this by maintaining a 1-to-1 mapping between the domain object and the vertical view model, as shown in the sample class FlightSelectionListener. In addition, TLcdVVTerrainModel has a new constructor making it easier to create a fully initialized terrain profile to achieve that 1-to-1 mapping. The other constructors have been deprecated. If you don't have a 1-to-1 mapping, you can unset and set the vertical view's model (i.e. vview.setVVModel(null); vview.setVVModel(model);) whenever you want to reset the controllers.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

It is now possible to perform comparison between two queryable properties using e.g. lfn.type=ic=${aStringPropName}, when querying data resources. This change applies to the REST API GET api/data/filter endpoint.

Use of deflate compression can now be disabled for OGC 3D Tiles, Panoramics, and HSPC services. See the config/application-fusion.common.yml file on how to disable this. Disabling compression is useful if the servlet container that LuciadFusion is running in already handles compression. For example, LuciadFusion running in a Tomcat container with compression turned on.

The ECWP service of LuciadFusion has been disabled by default to avoid a Studio styling issue on Linux when the customization of the Studio front-end is enabled (= by default in the development profile). To enable ECWP again, you can set the property fusion.ecwp.enabled=true in the config/application-fusion.common.yml file. If you are using Linux, make sure to disable the customization of the Studio front-end in this case by setting the property fusion.studio.webapp.theme.enabled=false.

LuciadLightspeed and LuciadFusion now apply the proper scale ranges for the levels in the AML cell files that are in a CATALOG.031. Before, AML data had no scale range. Usually, these scale ranges are beneficial to your application, both to reduce loading time and to reduce visual clutter. For details, see TLcdS52DisplaySettings#getScaleDenominators.

If you relied on always displaying all AML information in a catalog without scale range, you will now have to configure that. You can do this by setting [100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000, 100000000] as scale denominators on TLcdS52DisplaySettings.

New featureLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion now publishes events using the Spring framework's event mechanism. These events are triggered when certain manual or automated actions occur, such as: creating a content root, deleting a style, a crawl job completed, etc.

Read the Listening for LuciadFusion events article to learn more about the available events and how to listen to them.

New featureLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion is now able to read certain data formats from Amazon S3 cloud storage. To enable this feature, one must run LuciadFusion with the fusion.aws Spring profile activated. A list of all supported data formats can be found here. Please refer to the developer platform for more details.

Apart from out-of-the-box support for AWS S3, LuciadFusion now provides the building blocks required for adding support for a different (cloud) storage technology. Developers aiming to do so, need to implement an ILfnResourceConnector to enable LuciadFusion to communicate with the storage, and an ILcdInputStreamFactory to allow model decoders to read its resources. This is also described in more detail in the article linked above.

New featureLuciadFusion

A new sample application demonstrates how LuciadFusion can be configured with a user defined Spring Security configuration. For instance, the sample application configures user authentication logic against a database server. Though this sample application demonstrates user authentication against a database, developers are free to implement any custom user authentication logic in LuciadFusion server. Use CustomAuthenticationFusionPlatformApplication to run and explore the sample application. See the Configuring a custom user authentication logic article for more information.

New featureLuciadFusion

LuciadLightspeed now ships with a component named lcd_aws. This component contains an ILcdInputStreamFactory that is capable of reading files from Amazon S3 cloud storage. Most model decoders that implement ILcdInputStreamFactoryCapable automatically pick up this factory by means of the services registry, and are now able to decode sources directly from S3. Please refer to Supported data types to find out which formats are supported exactly.

The implementation of this factory, named S3InputStreamFactory, is also available in sample code. It can be used as an example for developers aiming to add support for a different (cloud) storage technology, or simply in case a modified version of the factory is desired. For example to set the S3Client that is used, or changing the default AWS Credentials Provider.

New featureLuciadFusion

Users can now associate additional information with a Data in LuciadFusion Studio by setting custom properties on that Data. Custom properties are name-value pairs, with the name uniquely identifying the property and the value containing the information for that property. The value of a custom property can be of type string, boolean, number or date.

The custom properties can be used to store additional metadata information about a Data, or they can be used to store information needed when extending LuciadFusion with custom functionality. An example of the former would be to add custom properties publisherName (string) and publicationYear (number) to store the name of the publisher of the Data and the year it was published. An example of the latter would be to add a spotlight (boolean) property to a Data, and using it to highlight certain Data that should stand out from the rest.

Custom properties can be set and obtained for a specific Data using the LuciadFusion Studio REST API. The PATCH /api/data/{id} endpoint allows users to set the custom properties for a Data. The GET /api/data/{id} endpoint allows users to obtain the custom properties for a Data.

New featureLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion is able to pick up custom properties from a metadata file when crawling or adding Data. This allows users to automatically associate additional metadata information with Data when it gets added to LuciadFusion. For example, if the metadata specifies the name of the publisher of the Data and a year when the Data was published, then this information could be extracted from the metadata and added as custom properties to the Data in LuciadFusion when it is imported.

An implementation of ILfnCustomPropertyDecoder is needed to let LuciadFusion extract custom properties from a TLcdISO19115Metadata decoded by an ILcdMetadataDecoder. To learn more, see this article.

New featureLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion can be configured to allow querying Data based on queryable properties. This allows users to search for Data based on the additional metadata information that is associated with the Data. For example, when using custom properties publisherName (string) and publishYear (number) to store the name of the publisher of the Data and the year it was published, a user can search for all Data published by a specific publisher during a specific year.

An implementation of ILfnCustomPropertyDecoder needs to be provided so that LuciadFusion is aware of the type of the custom properties, as this has an impact on the supported query operations. See the Define the custom properties article for more information.

Querying Data based on queryable properties is done using the LuciadFusion Studio REST API. The GET api/data/queryable-properties endpoint lists all the properties that can be used to query Data. To query Data, use the GET api/data/filter endpoint. For more information on how to query Data and which operations are supported, see this article.

When you have a layer that has a lot of labeled objects, in some cases this might result in more work being done in the background, and in slower label updates. If this is the case, you can go back to the old behavior by calling the setQuality method of those algorithms with a value of 0.5.

It is now possible to enable/disable strict segmentation of tactical graphics. Disabling strict segmentation will limit the amount of times information is repeated on a symbol. Strictly speaking, the military standards defines that some symbols need to repeat all information for each segment of 2 consecutive anchor points. This is not very useful in realistic situations.

For example, if you create a "Main Supply Route" that matches an actual route in the real world. It could be constructed out of many thousands of anchor points, forming very small segments. Having to repeat the information thousands of times is not desired as labels will overlap with each other and can cause performance issues when zooming out far enough where you are able to see the whole symbol.

It is now possible to configure the icon type of the "Antitank Obstacles, Tetrahedrons, Dragon’s Teeth and Other Similar Obstacles" symbols in APP-6A and APP-6B. These symbols can have different icons depending on their type: "Fixed And Prefabricated", "Movable" or "Movable And Prefabricated". Unfortunately the APP-6A and APP-6B specifications do not indicate how this obstacle type should be encoded in the symbol.

The approach taken here is similar to other products: the obstacle type is encoded in the "Type Of Equipment" text modifier of the symbol. The value should either be one of the following values (casing is not important):

Obstacle Type Possible values
Fixed And Prefabricated "Fixed And Prefabricated", "F", "01"
Movable "Movable", "M", "02"
Movable And Prefabricated "Movable And Prefabricate"1, "P", "03"

The AIXM 5.1 decoder TLcdAIXM51ModelDecoder now allows to configure whether the interpolation of linear GML elements needs to be geodesic in case of a geodetic reference, through the newly introduced methods setLinearElementsUseGeodesicInterpolationForGeodeticSrs and isLinearElementsUseGeodesicInterpolationForGeodeticSrs. This impacts the AIXM-compatible GML elements LineStringSegment and LinearRing. Although these GML elements conceptually represent geometries with a linear interpolation, they are often used to represent geometries with lon/lat coordinates and a geodesic interpolation. The default setting is to use geodesic interpolation.

You can use this new functionality through the API: setMeshCompression(ELcdOGC3DTilesMeshCompressionType). It is also available in LuciadFusion Studio when you create an OGC3DTiles service from the mesh data, and in the MeshUp en BinzConverter CLI samples.

The TLcdRoundedPolyline and TLcdRoundedPolygon shapes have been added. These shapes allow you to create a rounded curve based on a set of control points. You can use these shapes to create rounded versions of ILcdPolyline and ILcdPolygon shapes. They can be visualized, created, and edited in ILcdGXYView and ILspView implementations.

The utility class TLcdShapeUtil was added to the API. This class contains utility method to created rounded lines.

  • TLcdShapeUtil.round(ILcdModelReference, ILcdPolyline, double): Use this method to created a TLcdRoundedPolyline.
  • TLcdShapeUtil.round(ILcdModelReference, ILcdPolygon, double): Use this method to created a TLcdRoundedPolygon.

Example usage of these shapes can be found in the complex strokes Lightspeed sample. This sample has been adjusted so rounded lines are used in the Cartography layer. The lines are rounded using a custom ALspStyleTargetProvider which provides rounded lines for every ILcdPolyline or ILcdPolygon in the model. This ALspStyleTargetProvider is located in samples.lightspeed.style.strokedline.LayerFactory.RoundedLineStyleTargetProvider.

New featureInfrastructure Standards

When you convert Binz data to OGC 3D Tiles in LuciadLightspeed (decoder.binz.bat sample) or LuciadFusion (using an OGC3DTILES service), the conversion process (using TLcdBinzModelDecoder followed by TLcdOGC3DTilesModelEncoder) now also calculates physically based rendering (PBR) material properties from the material information which is always present in the Binz data.

The PBR properties are automatically added to the resulting OGC 3D Tiles data set during the conversion. No action is required on your part. If you have previously converted Binz data, however, you must process it again to have the PBR material properties calculated.

Client applications, such as LuciadRIA, can use these properties to generate more realistic images of an OGC 3D Tiles data set. It can result in highlights and reflections on the rendered objects.

LuciadFusion will now automatically combine NetCDF data sources that are related into a single Data item instead of having a Data item for every source. For example, a NetCDF file with both u- and v-wind components were previously added as separate Data items, and are now combined into a single Data item. Note this will only happen for newly crawled, uploaded, or added NetCDF data.

The LuciadFusion Studio REST API now allows users to add Data or Styles directly without the need for the source files to be part of a Data Root. This can be done by supplying the path of the source file for the Data or Style to Studio through the REST API. Operations to update and remove Data or styles that were added directly have also been added to the REST API.

More specifically, the following additions have been made to the REST API:

  • POST /api/data: allows Data to be added directly to Studio.
  • POST /api/styles: allows Styles to be added directly to Studio.
  • PUT /api/data/{id}/refresh: allows Data to be updated based on the changes made to the source file(s).
  • PUT /api/styles/{id}/refresh: allows Styles to be updated based on the changes made to the source file.
  • DELETE /api/data/{id}: allows Data to be removed from Studio.
  • DELETE /api/styles/{id}: allows Styles to be removed from Studio.

You can try out these new operations in the API Console, available at /api/console of a running Fusion development server. You can read in more detail about all the operations in the Developer's guide, available at /api/documentation.

Users will notice that adding certain Data directly to LuciadFusion Studio will be much quicker than crawling if the Data consists of many individual files (e.g. OGC 3D Tiles). This is because adding Data directly to LuciadFusion does not require evaluating all individual files.

All date-time properties used in the LuciadFusion Studio REST API now conform to RFC 3339. This means that a date-time property will now include a time-offset. The time-offset will be based on the time zone of the machine that LuciadFusion Studio runs on. If e.g the creationTime of a product was previously 2020-01-01T00:00:00.000 and LuciadFusion Studio is running on a machine in the CET timezone, then the creationTime returned by the REST API is now 2020-01-01T00:00:00.000+01:00. A creationTime that was previously 2020-08-01T00:00:00.000 will now return 2020-08-01T00:00:00.000+02:00 on that same machine.

The WCS server now uses a non-persistent cache for tiled GetCoverage requests. This cache makes sure that subsequent tile requests are handled much faster, improving the performance and scalability of the WCS server when using tiled requests. See ALcdOGCWCSCommandDispatcherFactory for more information and configuration options.

This implies that for data that changes dynamically, extra care needs to be taken to make sure caches are invalidated. To this end, the API ILcdCoverageOffering#getUpdateSequence and TLcdDefaultCoverageOffering#setUpdateSequence is introduced to indicate that a WCS coverage has changed. By default, the implementations of these methods (mostly) assume static data/coverages. For WCS servers that serve data that changes over time (for example data updates), these methods should be used correctly. Note that the LuciadFusion Platform already takes care of this. An alternative is to disable the caches.

ILcdEvaluatorFactory: the canBuildEvaluator method could not perform a decent check because it did not receive the same arguments as the buildEvaluator method. This could result in the creation of evaluators which would throw exceptions when used.

This has been fixed by introducing a new default canBuildEvaluator method which has the same arguments as the buildEvaluator method. The old method has been deprecated.

The result of this change is that calling TLcdOGCFilterEvaluator#buildFilter for a filter containing expressions that cannot be evaluated will now throw an IllegalArgumentException in all cases, and never return a filter with undefined behavior at runtime.

The ILcdEvaluatorFactory interface should not be implemented nor used by customers, so this change should not affect your code base.

Added an option to disable certain painting optimizations in TLcdS52GXYCatalogueLayer.

By default, these optimizations are enabled, and typically reduce the amount of elements to be painted by 30%. The cost of determining which elements to skip is offset by faster subsequent paints because of spatial locality.

In the context of a WMS server however, you have multiple threads/layers handling requests of multiple users, in different areas. In this case, each layer has to build up the visibility information separately and can re-use it a lot less in subsequent requests.

When using tiled WMS or WMTS, requests don't overlap and are typically cached on the client and/or server.

To use this option in WMS or WMTS, plug in your own ILcdGXYLayerFactory: 

      @LcdService(service = ILcdWMSGXYLayerFactory.class, priority = LcdService.HIGH_PRIORITY)
      public class MyWMSLayerFactory implements ILcdWMSGXYLayerFactory {

SLD now supports the use of functions inside SLD Geometry and ParameterValue (such as rotation) elements. On top of the existing capability to use property names, this provides additional flexibility to determine the desired value.

Additionally, support has been added for 4 new functions in TLcdOGCVendorSpecificFunctions that operate on a geometry defined by a given property name:
  • startAngle(propertyName) and endAngle(propertyName): determine respectively the start and end angle of the referred geometry, measured in degrees clockwise from the direction at 12 o'clock.
  • startPoint(propertyName) and endPoint(propertyName): determine respectively the start and end point of the referred geometry.

An example use case combining these new functions and the possibility to use them inside SLD Geometry and ParameterValue elements is the configuration of an arrow head at the end of a polyline. By using a point symbolizer with a geometry defined by the endPoint of the polyline and a rotation defined by the endAngle of the polyline, an oriented arrow icon can be drawn at the end of the polyline.

Added support for InlandECDIS (IENC) cells that contain regular ENC data.

While this is not according to the specification, data providers often do this. For example, often IENC cells contain both "achare" objects (part of IENC) and "ACHARE" objects (part of regular ENC).

The IENC object classes and attributes now include those from ENC that were not already part of the IENC spec. Similarly, the IENC visualization rules now include the full S-52 rules as a fallback.

If you have IENC cells or catalogs/multicatalogs with only IENC cells, all this will be picked up automatically.

If you have catalogs or multicatalogs that contain cells of product type IENC as well as regular ENC, you have to manually force IENC. This is because the cells themselves contain this information, and are lazy-loaded. 

      // Decode the model
      TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder decoder = TLcdS57ProductConfiguration.getInstance(ELcdS57ProductType.IENC).createCatalogueModelDecoder();

For example, the "Friendly Planned or on Order Area" symbol defines "Friend" as the only possible standard identity 2 modifier and "Planned/Anticipated/Suspect" as only possible status. The issue caused these symbols to be painted with incorrect affiliation color and status stroke. This issue also caused the values of these modifiers to be empty in the properties customizer panel in the military symbology sample.

Lightspeed views now support high DPI rendering. This means that fonts, icons and other map elements will be automatically resized in proportion to the DPI scale factor configured in the operating system. Due to the way high DPI support is implemented in Swing, however, applications that use a Lightspeed view now essentially have an additional coordinate system to deal with, which we refer to as "toolkit coordinates".

LuciadLightspeed now uses LWJGL as its Java binding for the OpenGL and OpenCL APIs (instead of the JogAmp libraries used by previous versions). This means that the following JAR files are no longer part of the release:

  • gluegen-rt-<version>.jar
  • gluegen-rt-<version>-natives-<platform>.jar
  • jocl-<version>.jar
  • jocl-<version>-natives-<platform>.jar
  • jogl-all-<version>.jar
  • jogl-all-<version>-natives-<platform>.jar

The following JARs have been added to replace the above:

  • lwjgl-<version>.jar
  • lwjgl-<version>-natives-<platform>.jar
  • lwjgl-jawt-<version>.jar
  • lwjgl-opencl-<version>.jar
  • lwjgl-opengl-<version>.jar
  • lwjgl-opengl-<version>-natives-<platform>.jar

Users upgrading from LuciadLightspeed V2018.x or earlier to V2019.0 may need to adapt their IDE settings or build scripts to reflect these changes.

Additionally, the migration to LWJGL has also brought with it some changes to how Lightspeed views deal with NIO buffers. The most visible result of these changes is that some data which was previously stored in native memory, will now be stored on the heap. As a result, upgrading an application from an older version of LuciadLightspeed to V2019.0 or newer may result in the application using less native memory and more heap memory. This may require some adjustment of JVM parameters, especially for applications that were tuned to run within tight memory constraints.

Finally, some of the API surrounding ALcdGLBinding has been changed incompatibly:

  • ILcdGLBuffer et al. have been removed. All API methods that used this interface now accept only java.nio.Buffer and/or primitive arrays. Applications that used these API methods will have to be updated accordingly. Note that the new class TLcdGLNIOBufferFactory should be used to allocate buffers that are intended to be passed to OpenGL calls.
  • The interface ILcdGL has been streamlined and now contains only the OpenGL core and compatibility profile API (i.e. no OpenGL extensions). It has, however, been updated to cover all OpenGL versions up to and including OpenGL 4.6. Applications that contain custom OpenGL code and use certain OpenGL extensions, can access these extensions by calling LWJGL directly. This is safe and easy to do since LWJGL exposes the OpenGL API entry points as static methods.
  • ILcdGL has also been stripped of method overloads that take a primitive array followed by an array offset parameter. Applications that use these methods should use an NIO buffer instead, positioned to the appropriate offset.
  • The methods makeCurrent(), canMakeCurrent() and release(), which were previously deprecated, have now been removed from ILcdGLDrawable. To execute code that requires an active OpenGL context, use the drawable's invokeLater() or invokeAndWait() methods instead.
  • The previously deprecated displayChanged() method has been removed from ILcdGLEventListener. The method was never called by any implementation of ILcdGLDrawable.

A number of improvements have been implemented related to the WFS server's interoperability with 3rd party WFS client solutions:
  • For GML 3.1 / 3.2 responses, linear GML elements are used by default. This makes sure that ILcdPolyline and ILcdPolygon instances are respectively encoded to LineString and LinearRing elements, regardless of their interpolation. Previously, GeodesicString elements were used for a geodesic interpolation.

Changed the editing behaviour of the 'Rectangular Target' symbol to more closely match the symbol definition in the military standards. The symbol is now defined by a center point and the newly added "length", "width", and "attitude" text modifiers. The values in these modifiers will be changed as the visual representation of the symbol is edited. Conversely changing those values programmatically (by using ILcdEditableMS2525bCoded#putTextModifier and ILcdAPP6Coded#putTextModifier) will also change the symbol's visual representation. Creating such a symbol programmatically with two or more points in the ILcdMS2525bShape/ILcdAPP6AShape's point list will revert back to the legacy visualization and editing behaviour, where the points define the start and end point of the buffer axis and ILcdMS2525bShape/ILcdAPP6AShape#getWidth defines the buffer width. The following symbols are affected by this change:
  • MIL-STD-2525 B: 2.X.4.3.1.1 - Rectangular Target

A uniqueness constraint was added to the public id columns of the tables that contain Data and Services in the database (imported_data and geo_service). The REST API uses the public id as the identifier for Data and Services and requires this value to be unique. Ensure that all the public ids of Data and Services are unique before upgrading or it will fail.

Some API constructs in Luciad's abstract OpenGL binding have been deprecated:
  • ILcdGLBufferFactory and ILcdGLBuffer should be replaced by the equivalent java.nio.Buffer constructs.
  • The makeCurrent(), canMakeCurrent() and release() methods of ILcdGLDrawable are prone to improper use. Code that requires an active OpenGL context outside of a regular repaint cycle should instead be scheduled using the invokeLater() or invokeAndWait() method of the drawable.
  • ILcdGLEventListener#displayChanged() is never called by any current implementations of ILcdGLDrawable. The init() method serves essentially the same purpose and should be used instead.

TLcdExpressionFactory can now create expressions for trigonometric, vector and distance operations. A view position attribute, which represents the view coordinates of the object that is evaluated, was also added.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

Three parameterized styles that can be used by the TLspShapePainter (e.g. layers created with TLspShapeLayerBuilder) were added to the com.luciadview.lightspeed.style package:
  • TLspParameterizedIconStyle
  • TLspParameterizedLineStyle
  • TLspParameterizedFillStyle
These styles are configured using ILcdExpression, which can be created with the TLcdExpressionFactory. This allows to style objects based on their property values without the need to create a custom ALspStyler and submit multiple styles. Since the evaluation of the expressions of the style is done on the GPU and only one style needs to be used for property based styling, performance will improve compared with a custom ALspStyler.

The sample package samples.lightspeed.style.expressions contains a sample demonstrating how the parameterized styles can be used.

These styles can be used for dynamic and static data sets. However, for large static point data sets, it is recommended to use TLspPlotLayerBuilder.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The properties in the LAS data model (see TLcdLASModelDescriptor) now disallow null values, because they cannot have absent values. Only the "ExtraBytes" property is nullable, because whether or not extra bytes are present depends on the file content, not the LAS point format.

The new TLcdModelMetadata class encapsulates advanced metadata information (including ISO 19115 metadata) about ILcdModel instances. ILcdModelDecoder has a new method decodeModelMetadata to retrieve model information without having to decode the entire model. The information can also be accessed from any ILcdModel. The Luciad model decoders have been enhanced to decode the metadata as efficiently as possible and provide more generic metadata, such as the data category, related files and their mime types.

The OGC Web Client implementations WMS, WFS, WCS and WMTS now support the use of a "direct data URL", consisting of the server URL and a key-value pair property 'data=...' that refers to the identifier of the desired data (WMS / WMTS layer, WCS coverage or WFS feature type id). This "direct data URL" can be set as follows:
  • WMS: through TLcdOGCWMSProxyModelDecoder#decode or (since issue fix LCD-10047) through TLcdWMSDataSource#Builder#uri.
  • WFS: through TLcdWFSModelDecoderDecorator#decode or (since issue fix LCD-10047) through TLcdWFSDataSource#Builder#uri.

TLspPlotStyle : The alpha value of the modulation color configured on the style is now also taken into account, previously it was ignored. The transparency of the icon is now determined by multiplying the alpha value of the modulation color and the opacity configured on the style. If in your code you use a modulation color which is transparent on your style e.g. TLspPlotStyle.newBuilder().modulationColor(new Color(255,0,0,128)).build(), then you will need to change this to TLspPlotStyle.newBuilder().modulationColor(new Color(255,0,0,255)).build() if the icon needs to remain fully opaque.

A number of improvements have been implemented related to the server's support for WFS 2.0:
  • Support has been added for the optional 'RESOURCEID' parameter in a WFS 2.0 GetFeature request. This parameter can be used to query a feature based on its identifier, without the need to specify a feature type.
  • Support has been added for the WFS 2.0 requests ListStoredQueries and DescribeStoredQueries, along with support for the default, standardized stored query urn:ogc:def:query:OGC-WFS::GetFeatureById. This stored query can be used inside GetFeature requests to query a feature based on its identifier.

Ensured that TLspEditingStateEvent supports multiple objects in a single event. This allows editing state listeners to be more efficient when editing a large group of objects. This incompatible change removes the TLspEditingStateEvent.getObject() method in favor of a TLspEditingStateEvent.getObjects() method, which returns a list of objects, instead of a single domain objects. If you have code that relies on TLspEditingStateEvent objects, you can easily update your code by iterating over the list of objects returned by TLspEditingStateEvent.getObjects() in a for loop, and handle the event one by one. Note that if you manually used to call ALspEditor.edit() in your code, without using a TLspEditController, you now also have to call ILspInteractivePaintableLayer.editedObjectChanged() explicitly in your own code. The responsibility of calling this method has been moved from the editor to the controller. The default TLspCreateController and TLspEditController have been updated to reflect this, but if you have your own controller (that does not extend from either controllers), then you might have to call ILspInteractivePaintableLayer.editedObjectChanged() directly in your controller.

The ArcInfo ASCII Grid format does not include metadata for specifying the coordinate reference system (CRS) of the data. This needs to be specified using an external file (eg .prj or .ref) which is handled by the ILcdModelReferenceDecoder.

The decoder no longer has a default model reference (EGM96) as fall-back when no external geo-reference is found. This makes it visible that important metadata is missing rather than showing the data at a wrong location. The behavior is consistent with other model decoders.

Users that want to get the behavior as before can do this based on the following fragment in their application code. TLcdArcInfoASCIIGridModelDecoder arcInfoASCIIGridModelDecoder = new TLcdArcInfoASCIIGridModelDecoder(); arcInfoASCIIGridModelDecoder.setDefaultModelReference( new TLcdGeodeticReference(new TLcdGeoidGeodeticDatumFactory().createGeodeticDatum(EGM96_GRID_BILINEAR)) );

When VPF data is decoded via the VPF database header table (dht), the TLcdVPFModelDecoder returns an ILcdModelTreeNode. At the level that coincides with the VPF database, library and coverage levels, these ILcdModelTreeNode no longer have an TLcdVPFModelDescriptor, instead they will now return a TLcdModelDescriptor. As a result of this change, to check if a model contains VPF data, you need to check whether TLcdVPFModelDescriptor.TYPE_NAME is equal to ILcdModelDescriptor#getTypeName.

The WFS client now supports the new "minBoundsSize" OGC function. When used with servers that support this function (for example LuciadFusion), the function is evaluated by the server, so the client can avoid retrieving small elements.

This function allows to filter out elements which do not have a certain minimum size. A use-case of this function is requesting only the elements which will be visible when painting data on a map at a certain scale, and skip all objects which are too small.

A new custom OGC function is introduced: see TLcdOGCVendorSpecificFunctions.MIN_BOUNDS_SIZE_FUNCTION_NAME and TLcdOGCFilterFactory#minBoundsSize.

A use-case of this function is requesting only the elements which will be visible when painting data on a map at a certain scale, and skip all objects which are too small.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The scale range of a layer in a 3D view is now applied using a local scale instead of a single scale per view. Unlike a 2D view, a 3D view does not have a single map scale, every point in the visible area in a 3D view has another scale. Previously, the scale range was all-or-nothing, based on a scale determined at one location on the screen. Now, within one view the layer can load data for nearby regions within the scale range, and leave out data for regions outside the scale range.

If you have a TLcdModelQueryConfiguration on a layer in 3D, the layer will use different OGC conditions for different regions in your view at the same time. For example, within one view you can have major roads in the distance as well as minor roads nearby.

The "minimum object size for painting" setting on a layer is also applied adaptively. Previously, each frame one uniform pixel size was used for the entire layer, based on a scale determined at one location on the screen. Now, the layer can load smaller elements near the viewer and only larger elements further in the distance.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

Improved handling of large vector data sets by introducing the ILcdModel.query method and the concept of a TLcdModelQueryConfiguration which can be set on a TLspLayer and TLcdGXYLayer.

  • The new default method ILcdModel.query method allows to request from a model all elements that match a certain OGC filter. That OGC filter can contain a "BBOX" operator as well as other non-spatial conditions. You can also specify a certain order and/or limit.
  • Since it's a default method, it is available for all ILcdModels. By default, it will use applyOnInteracts2DBounds if available, or elements otherwise. This means most in-memory models will use a spatial tree to evaluate the spatial part of the OGC filter, and evaluate other parts by testing all remaining elements.
  • Certain models have an optimized implementation of the ILcdModel#query method. For example database models will convert the OGC filter to SQL and let the database do the filtering. WFS models will send the filter to the WFS server so that the server can perform the filtering, and only needs to send the requested elements back to the client.
  • By configuring a TLcdModelQueryConfiguration on the layer, you can specify which OGC filter the layer should use at a certain scale when it queries the model. This allows to reduce the amount of data the layer loads at certain scales. This also works in 3D, where the scale is not uniform across the screen. See TLspShapeLayerBuilder.modelQueryConfiguration and TLcdGXYLayer.setModelQueryConfiguration.
  • When a layer is styled using SLD styling, a TLcdModelQueryConfiguration is automatically derived from the SLD to ensure that only the data which will be visualized is loaded. See for example TLspShapeLayerBuilder.sldStyle.
For more information, please refer to the javadoc of TLcdModelQueryConfiguration or the LuciadLightspeed Developer's Guide. See also the article How to visualize OpenStreetMap data sets with LuciadLightspeed on the Luciad Developer Platform for an example use case.

This decoder does lazy loading of elements, based on the client request.
  • This ensures a low memory footprint if only part of the data is needed at the same time:
    • when visualizing a small area
    • when a model query filter is used
    • when doing processing on the elements one by one
  • It also ensures fast model creation.

We recommend using the new TLcdSHPModelDecoder2. If you do want eager-loading behavior, you can use TLcdSHPModelDecoder. It loads all records up-front, including all geometry and property data. This results in large memory footprint as well as a big decoding hit on startup, but subsequent queries are very fast.

TLcdSHPModelDecoder2 is registered in the Java service registry, while TLcdSHPModelDecoder is no longer registered. If you use the Java service loader to look up model decoders, you will automatically use the new decoder.

TLcdSLDLabelingAlgorithm now prefers static labels over dynamic ones. This behavior was set as the default labeling behavior. This is for example useful for cases where you need consistent consistent label positions over multiple repaints, such as a (Tiled) WMS or WMTS server implementation. You can still enable the dynamic behavior, where multiple locations are tried, by passing false to the constructor.

Added support for OGC Filter 2.0.
This adds support for temporal operators. See TLcdOGCBinaryTemporalOperator for details. You cannot serialize this operator to a 1.1 OGC Filter.
Other notable changes when using Java to create filter and condition:
  • You can use a function (TLcdOGCFunction) as condition ( ILcdOGCCondition) if it evaluates to a boolean result.
  • Instead of using "object ids" or "feature ids" on TLcdOGCFilter, you can now use a condition to match ID: see TLcdOGCFilterFactory.resourceIds(). Using object ids directly is deprecated, but still works.
Both changes can be used regardless of whether the condition will eventually be serialized to a 1.1 OGC Filter (for example WFS 1.x, or SLD), or a 2.0 OGC Filter (for example WFS 2.0).
Binary arithmetic operators (Add/Mul/Sub/Div) are no longer supported in the OGC Filter 2.0 standard. You can still create them and evaluate them, but you will get an error when it is serialized to OGC Filter 2.0 XML (for example WFS 2.0).

For better interoperability with reverse proxies, the server now uses OnlineResource paths relative to the servlet mapping instead of relative to the servlet container in its capabilities.

Due to the introduction of support for OGC Filter 2.0 (see LCD-8655), using the TLcdOGCFilterDecoder to convert an XML representation of a filter into a TLcdOGCFilter instance will not always result in a Java structure which matches the filter structure. The Java filter will be the equivalent of the XML representation, but the individual building blocks of the Java filter might differ from the XML building blocks.

The caching behavior for ILcdWFSFeatureType on the WFS server has been modified. Previously, caches used the ILcdWFSFeatureType instance itself as key for a cache. This implies that caches didn't work as expected when using different WFS feature type instances that represent the same data.

This instance-based caching mechanism has been replaced by a caching mechanism that uses the following properties as cache key:

  • ILcdWFSFeatureType#getQName: uniquely identifies the WFS feature type.
  • ILcdWFSFeatureType#getUpdateSequence: identifies the 'version' of the WFS feature type. I.e. if a property of the feature type changes, its update sequence should change as well.

The WMS server has added caches on two new levels:

  • The command dispatchers now use a mechanism of view pooling. This changes the call order of methods such as TLcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcher.clearGXYView. If needed, the pool size (ALcdWMSCommandDispatcher.setGXYViewPoolSize) can be set to 0 obtain the old behavior.
  • It now uses a non-persistent tile cache for tiled (Tiled WMS) GetMap requests. This cache makes sure that subsequent tile requests are handled much faster, improving the performance and scalability of the WMS server when using tiled requests. See ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory for more information (also on how to disable tile caching for example).

This implies that for data that changes dynamically, extra care needs to be taken to make sure caches are invalidated. To this end, the following API was introduced:

  • ALcdWMSLayer#setUpdateSequence: Used to indicate that a WMS layer has changed. This includes all dependencies such as styles, layer factory implementation, etc...
  • ILcdModelProvider#getModelUpdateSequence: Used to indicate that the underlying data has changed. This can mean that the model has been changed in-memory, or that the underlying data (file/database/...) has been changed.

By default, the implementations of these methods (mostly) assume static data/layers. For WMS servers that serve data that changes over time (for example data updates), these methods should be used correctly. Note that the LuciadFusion Platform already takes care of this. An alternative is to disable the caches.

All WCS request handler implementations are no longer part of the public API:

Any unlikely usages of these concrete classes can be replaced as follows:

  • Decoration: in case you were wrapping the request handlers, you can generically wrap them instead, they offered nothing in addition to the ILcdRequestHandler interface.
  • setCoverageOfferingList and setServiceMetaData calls can be replaced by creating/wrapping the ILcdWCSCapabilitiesProvider in the WCS command dispatcher factory. This is a much more powerful, easier and safer approach to achieve similar results. See also the other release note about ILcdWCSCapabilitiesProvider for more information.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

The ILcdWCSCapabilitiesProvider interface was added. This interface describes the capabilities of a WCS service. Advantages over ILcdCoverageOfferingList are that:

  • it is easier now to update the coverage offering while the service is running.
  • it allows to lazily load models to improve the scalability of the server.
  • it allows to do per-request handling of coverages. This for example allows to filter out coverages for specific users or groups.
  • it separates the configuration/metadata from the actual use of models.

The models should be accessed through the model provider. To this end, the method createModelProvider was added to the ALcdOGCWCSCommandDispatcherFactory. The default implementation TLcdOGCModelProvider maintains a cache for all decoded models.

The ALcdOGCWCSCommandDispatcherFactory allows you to plug in a ILcdWCSCapabilitiesProvider by overriding the createWCSCapabilitiesProvider method.

The methods createServiceMetaData and createCoverageOfferingList of ALcdOGCWCSCommandDispatcherFactory remain to exist but they will be no longer be abstract. Overwriting the new method to create the capabilities provider createWCSCapabilitiesProvider will be the preferred way of working instead of using the two previously mentioned methods.

In order to make sure this new interface is used in the WCS server, the following change was made:

  • TLcdWCSCommandDispatcherContext now contains the methods getCapabilitiesProvider() and getModelProvider() instead of the getCoverageOfferingList() and getServiceMetaData() methods. Usages of these methods can be replaced by the corresponding functionality on the ILcdWCSCapabilitiesProvider.

TLcdWMTSModelDecoder now returns models with has-an-image domain objects instead of just an image. So the element(s) returned by ILcdModel.elements() no longer extend from ALcdImage, but rather contain a reference to such an ALcdImage. In certain conditions, the returned TLcdWMTSModelDescriptor also implemented ILcdEarthModelDescriptor, this is no longer the case. Because of the has-an-image approach, the WMTS client can now support multidimensional data such as GRIB or NetCDF that varies over time, altitude or other dimensions (see also ILcdMultiDimensionalModel). By applying a dimensional filter (ILcdMultiDimensionalModel.applyDimensionFilter), you can now change one or more values of of a multidimensional data model, and see the underlying image change accordingly. This means the behavior of serving NetCDF and GRIB data through a WMTS is very similar to opening it locally. This change does not affect any typical painting related code, the regular approaches remain to work as expected (e.g. TLcdGXYImagePainter or TLspRasterLayerBuilder). Should direct access to the image data be needed, please refer to ALcdImage.fromDomainObject.

The interfaces ILcdKVPRequest and ILcdXMLRequest have been merged within their common super-interface ILcdRequest. Consequently, these interfaces have been removed. This change makes the request interface more in line with the well-known Servlet API, and makes it easier to use. It also allows to deal with other content types in the future, and resolves an API dependency on JDom XML parsing. In addition, extra methods are exposed on ILcdRequest to have access to more information such as the attributes and the user principal.

As a consequence the interface ILcdRequestHandler and the abstract class ALcdOGCCommandDispatcher (and their implementations) have been updated accordingly. They now have a single method void handleRequest(ILcdRequest aRequest, ILcdResponse aResponse) throws TLcdOGCServiceException which is used for all requests. This further simplifies the request handling, allowing implementations to decide if they want to differentiate on the content type of the request or not.

Code that used to differentiate based on the content type of the request (e.g. instanceof ILcdKVPRequest or ILcdRequestHandler.handleRequest(ILcdKVPRequest ...)) needs to be adapted, the compiler will flag these places. Typical OGC service customizations had no need to do this.

Client-side support for coverages of type VECTOR has been deprecated in favor of other mechanisms for publishing vector data. Please refer to the Fusion migration guide for more information.

This means that LuciadFusion clients remain able to read existing VECTOR coverages. We recommend publishing vector data through the OGC WFS protocol.

In the context of this change, these API changes were done:

  • The ELfnDataType#VECTOR field has been deprecated.
  • Classes related to ELfnDataType#VECTOR coverages have been deprecated.

The PNG encoder implementation TLcdGXYViewPNGEncoder now uses the ObjectPlanet PNG encoder, which is part of an additional 3rd party library. The ObjectPlanet PNG encoder library is a lot faster than the previously used JAI based PNG encoding.

As a result the implementation of TLcdGXYViewPNGEncoder.encodeGXYView declares it can throw an IOException. The interface ILcdGXYViewEncoder.encodeGXYView already declared the IOException on its method. This affects only users using the concrete class TLcdGXYViewPNGEncoder, which is very unlikely.

LuciadFusion can not support legacy AIXM 5.0 anymore. AIXM 5.0 was introduced in 2007 by FAA and Eurocontrol as an intermediary to validate a new approach. This has lead to the creation of the official AIXM 5.1 standard in 2010, which of course remains supported, together with AIXM 3.3 and 4.x.

Proguard's jar-merging capability is no longer supported. Proguard merges .jar files by simply adding all files contained inside multiple jar files in a single jar file, not handling duplicate file names. This creates issues with the contents of the META-INF directories, present in every jar file. Most notably, the contents of the META-INF/services directory must be preserved as of now.

To know if you are affected or not, search your configuration files for the '-outjars' Proguard option. If it specifies a directory name, you are not affected. If it specifies a file name, you are affected. You can solve it by changing the file name into a directory name, and update the remainder of your build script to work with that directory rather than a single file. This avoids using Proguard's jar-merging; it now obfuscates and copies every jar file separately into the output directory. All example build scripts were updated to do so.

Should you not make this change, existing projects will keep on working. When starting to use new 2017.0 functionality, you may experience that not all services (model decoders, layer factories etc.) are found after deploying your application.

Our product code (com.luciad.*) started to make use of TLcdServiceLoader in certain places (identical to java.util.ServiceLoader), such as the default WMS server configuration. Previously, it was only used by sample code (samples.*). This allows for many benefits, now and in future versions, to pick up optional dependencies. For example, the default WMS server may automatically pick up the MrSID data format if you installed it.

These so called 'services' are listed in files in the META-INF/services directory of various jar files. Distinct jar files use the same file names, as prescribed by ServiceLoader. When deploying your application using Proguard, as our example deployment scripts do, care must be taken to disable its jar-merging capability which does not correctly handle those services files (see also https://sourceforge.net/p/proguard/feature-requests/94/). This can be done by specifying the name of a directory instead of a file for the -outjars property. Proguard then no longer attempts to merge the jar files, but instead obfuscates them all individually and places them in the output dir. Should jar-merging still be required, we recommend using an existing technology that supports services files, as most do.

The ILcdRequest interface has been extended with a few additional methods. It provides access to the current authenticated user, if any authentication is taking place. It also allows to retrieve programmatically set attributes to pass on information. As instances of this interface are created internally, you are normally not affected by this change.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

It is now possible to make ILcdGXYView implementations behave synchronously. This can be enabled or disabled by using the setAsynchronousAllowed method on the ILcdGXYView implementations.

The isAsynchronousAllowed method was added to the ILcdGXYView interface to make sure layers/painters/... can detect if asynchronous behavior is allowed. This can lead to a compile error for custom ILcdGXYView implementations. The compile error can be solved either by delegating to an other view, or by implementing this method when no delegate is available. A basic implementation would be to always return true or false.

The TLcdGXYViewBufferedImage and TLcdGXYViewPlanarImage and their extension now don't allow asynchronous painting/operations by default. The previous behavior can be restored by calling view.setAsynchronousAllowed(true).

ILspLayer can have now post-processing effects with a TLspLayerStyle. TLspLayerStyle styles a layer as a whole contrary to ILspStyler or ALspStyle that perform the styling per object. TLspLayerStyle can be set and retrieved with the newly added methods ILspLayer#setLayerStyle(TLspLayerStyle) and ILspLayer#getLayerStyle(). For layers built by TLspShapeLayerBuilder, you can also set the layer style with ALspLayerBuilder#layerStyle(TLspLayerStyle). You can now set a TLspLayerStyle on a Lightspeed layer to
  • change the transparency of the entire layer
  • perform color conversions on the fly. For instance, you can convert an entire layer to greyscale.
  • adjust the brightness and the contrast of each pixel.
  • swap colors on the fly.

All usages of ILcdDataSourceModelDecoder in the API were removed and replaced by ILcdModelDecoder. This affects the ILfnDataSourceModelDecoderFactory interface and its implementations. Compile errors can be fixed by using ILcdModelDecoder instead.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

ILcdModelDecoder now supports decoding ILcdDataSource objects. More specifically, it now contains the canDecodeSource(ILcdDataSource) and decodeSource(ILcdDataSource) methods with a default implementation that adds support for the TLcdDataSource data source implementation. This means that it is not needed to implement or use ILcdDataSourceModelDecoder anymore, since you can now use ILcdModelDecoder instead.

Custom ILcdModelDecoder instances that override the methods with ILcdDataSource as argument, need to make sure they call the overridden method using super as well. Not doing so breaks the default support for TLcdDataSource.

The fusion engine now doesn't support fusing multivalued data as MULTIVALUED coverages anymore. Support for MULTIVALUED coverages was very limited. You can still fuse multivalued assets as RASTER coverages, which is better supported.

In the context of this change, API changes were done:

  • The ALfnFormat class now doesn't contain an ILcdEarthMultivaluedProviderFactory anymore. This means that its constructors now don't accept such a parameter anymore. The getter and setter for this property was removed as well.
  • The ALfnFormat#newMultivaluedFormat methods were removed.
  • A similar change was done for TLfnFormat.
This also means that MULTIVALUED coverages can not be read anymore by fusion clients. In order to upgrade the tile store, the assets that were used to create these coverages should be refused to a RASTER COVERAGE.

Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

Support for MULTIVALUED fusion coverages has been removed. This type of coverage was only used for GRIB files, but support for MULTIVALUED GRIB files had many limitations. Note that the fusion engine now supports the fusing of GRIB files to RASTER coverages, which is better supported.

This means that fusion clients will not be able to read existing MULTIVALUED coverages anymore. This can be resolved by re-fusing multivalued assets as RASTER coverages.

In the context of this change, these API changes were made:

  • The ELfnDataType#MULTIVALUED field was removed.
  • Several (deprecated) setAssetPart and addAssetPart methods were removed from TLfnRasterAssetMetadata.Builder. You can use the addAssetPart method that doesn't take any parameters instead.
  • The get/setParameter methods were removed from TLfnRasterCoverageMetadata.Builder. You can use the parameter methods instead.
  • Fields were removed from TLfnQuery.Property:
    • RASTER_ASSET_parameter_name
    • RASTER_ASSET_parameter_unit

DimensionalFilterManager was setting a model's filter value to the first possible value of the filter when the model is added to a view and if the model is the first model for that filtering dimension in the view. This was preventing you to set a filter value on the model and then display it with the same filtering value via the DimensionalFilterManager. To achieve that, you had to set the same filtering value after displaying the model. Now with this enhancement, the DimensionalFilterManager sets the value of the filter by getting it from the model if the model is the first model of that dimension in the UI.

The overlay panel of Lightspeed views, which typically contains the navigation controls or a scale icon, can now avoid full redraws in a number of scenarios. This makes it behave subtly faster, resulting in somewhat higher frame rates depending on the screen resolution and exact set-up. It may uncover bugs in client code that previously remained unnoticed. Should you experience a partially updating overlay, check out the documentation in ILspAWTView.getOverlayComponent. Most notably, samples classes HaloLabel, TouchInformationPanelController and PreviewerOnMapCustomizerFactory (Lucy) had to be adjusted.

Model references that contain metadata (ILcdExtendedModelReference) are now only considered equal if they have the same axis ordering. This means for example that from now on "urn:ogc:def:crs:OGC:1.3:CRS84" (which is a lon-lat reference), and "urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326" (which is a lat-lon reference) are now considered different. The references in this example can be parsed using TLcdOGCModelReferenceParser.

The vertex array renderer accessible using ILspView.getViewServices().getVertexArrayRenderer() no longer uses the standard gl_Color attribute. If you have written a custom painter that uses this vertex array renderer together with custom shader programs, you need to update your vertex programs to no longer use gl_Color, but use following construct: 
      //declare custom attribute and uniforms
      attribute vec4 aLspColor;
      uniform vec4 uLspColor;
      uniform bool uUseAttribute;

      // ...

      void main() {
      // ...
      vec4 colorToUse = uUseAttribute ? aLspColor : uLspColor;
      // ...
      }
Any calls to ILcdGL.glColor4f (or equivalent) should be replaced with setting the uLspColor uniform on the shader. For instance: 
      int[] currentProgramRet = new int[1];
      gl.glGetIntegerv(ILcdGL.GL_CURRENT_PROGRAM, currentProgramRet);
      int currentProgram = currentProgramRet[0];
      if (currentProgram > 0) {
      int uLspColor = gl.glGetUniformLocation(currentProgram, "uLspColor");
      if (uLspColor > 0) {
      gl.glUniform4f(uLspColor, fColor[0], fColor[1], fColor[2], fColor[3]);

It is now possible to pass query context parameters to the ALcdWMSProxy#createImageInputStream and ALcdWMSProxy#createFeatureInfoInputStream method directly. See TLcdWMSGetMapContext and TLcdWMSGetFeatureInfoContext. For GetFeatureInfo requests, this allows to specify which feature info format to use, and which layers should be queried, without the need to modify the ALcdWMSProxy object. This provides a better way to do getFeatureInfo request calls in a thread-safe manner.

The ALcdWMSProxy#createImageInputStream and ALcdWMSProxy#createFeatureInfoInputStream method are abstract, which means that custom implementations of this class will show a compile error. For wrappers, this can easily be resolved by delegating to the wrapped ALcdWMSProxy. For custom implementations, these new methods will need to be implemented. ALcdWMSProxy#createImageInputStream should pose no problems since no extra parameters were introduced. The implementation of the new ALcdWMSProxy#createFeatureInfoInputStream method will need to take the new arguments (i.e. the contents TLcdWMSGetFeatureInfoParameters) into account.

The JOGL, JOCL, and GlueGen libraries have been updated to version 2.3.2+2-lcd. This is the same as the official 2.3.2 version of JOGL, with two exception. The first is a change for the Mac OS X platform that fixes following JOGL issues:
  • 1277: GLCanvas content draws in wrong position when canvas moves after JFrame containing it is setVisible(true) on EDT
  • 1299: warning when using JOGL on Mac OS X El Capitan
  • 1306: Medium-weight tooltips are painted behind the GLCanvas
  • 1307: GLCanvas is always drawn on top when using a JTabbedPane
The second is a fix for a memory leak that occurs when creating two OpenGL drawables that perform GL context sharing, and then destroying one. The other could previously not be garbage collected in this case.

GML decoding: the GML decoders now exclusively rely on the model reference axis metadata as provided by their reference parsers. This may impact the parsing of coordinates using the "EPSG:4326" model reference. In particular, if you have previously customized a GML decoder with a TLcdEPSGReferenceParser and you relied on OGC's legacy lon-lat interpretation of the "EPSG:4326" string instead of EPSG's official lat-lon interpretation, you should use TLcdOGCModelReferenceParser instead and enable the lon-lat interpretation by calling setParseUnprefixedEPSG4326AsLonLat(true).

The path of the URI is now relative to the servlet mapping instead of relative to the application server root: by default online resources are now advertized with an empty URI "" instead of "/LuciadFusion/lts". For backwards compatibility, the behavior towards older clients remains as it was before. If you're running a LuciadFusion server behind a reverse proxy and want to take advantage of this feature, you should make sure both client and server are up-to-date.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

LCD-7354
The multidimensional API now includes an interface ILcdMultiDimensionalModel for filtering dimensional data. It is typically implemented by dimensional models such as NetCDF, LuciadFusion raster and NVG models. Even when models implement the interface, implementations may still indicate that particular instances do not support dimensional filtering by returning the empty filter TLcdDimensionFilter.EMPTY_FILTER upon ILcdMultiDimensionalModel.getDimensionFilter().

The new multidimensional API replaces some legacy, format-specific APIs which have been deprecated. Examples of such APIs are get/setDate on ASTERIX and NVG models. A notable difference with these legacy APIs is that the multidimensional models must no longer do any snapping of elements to filters. In case no elements pass a filter, the result must be empty. Snapping can now be applied to any model, using TLcdDimensionFilter#createSnappingFilter.

The following enhancements were also done in this context:
  • TLcdDimensionInterval.Relation and relationTo have been removed and replaced with TLcdDimensionInterval.overlaps.
  • TLcdDimensionInterval now documents the use of null as min or max to indicate that it is unbounded at one or both ends. The methods TLcdDimensionInterval.union, overlaps and compareTo know how to deal with unbounded intervals.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion is extended with a new asset and coverage type RASTER, which allows preservation of all the source data's multi-dimensional and multi-band information. This can be used to fuse NetCDF data whilst preserving the multi-dimensional nature of the source data. This allows clients to treat fused NetCDF data as if it were regular NetCDF data, using the imaging API. Such fusion models only support the imaging API, they no longer support the raster (tile set) API. The new RASTER data type thus replaces the legacy data types IMAGE, ELEVATION and MULTIVALUED.

The tile format for RASTER coverages is "image/tiff". Every possible combination of possible values for every dimension will be stored as a separate page of a multi-page TIFF file.

The RASTER data type can also be used to preserve the multi-band nature of source data.

'Preservation of multi-dimensional and multi-band nature' does not imply 'preservation of source resolution without any resampling'. Even when preserving multi-dimensional and multi-band nature, fusion may yet resample the source data using bilinear interpolation and warping to fit the source raster into the raster defined by the coverage's bounds, layout and tile resolution.

Fusing coverages as RASTER is thus a lot more powerful than fusing coverages as IMAGE, ELEVATION or MULTIVALUED. There could however be reasons to not use RASTER:

  • When you want to offer the coverage as WMTS, you need to use IMAGE. RASTER coverages do not support WMTS.
  • Preserving the multi-dimensional samples is overhead if you don't need them. When you're only interested in a single 'default' combination of dimensional values, and you want to save bandwidth, you're probably better off using IMAGE.
  • RASTER coverages don't have a compact format for elevation. If you want to use the compact format for elevation to preserve bandwidth, you should use ELEVATION.
  • When you're fusing GRIB data, you'll still have to use MULTIVALUED. GRIB source data cannot be fused as raster, because the source format does not support the imaging API. There is no other good reason to still use MULTIVALUED.

The model structure for a decoded raster coverage is this:
  • The model has a TLfnRasterTileStoreModelDescriptor, which is also an ILcdImageModelDescriptor.
  • If the model has multi-dimensional information, it is also an ILcdMultiDimensionalModel.
  • Even if it doesn't have any multi-dimensional information, the model is still ILcdMultiDimensionalModel, but it has null for filter parameters.
  • The model adheres to the imaging API. You can get the current image usingALcdImage.fromDomainObject(modelElement).
  • The ALcdImage instances themselves are immutable, so when you update the dimensional filter, the reference will be updated with a new instance.

TLcdIconFactory is the preferred way to create icons based on the resources in the release. Therefore we deprecated the TLcdGUIIcon and TLcdShapeIcon classes in favor of the TLcdIconfactory class.

LuciadFusion is extended with support for multi-dimensional NetCDF data, which can be fused to a raster or image coverage. The format ID is defined by ALfnFormat.NETCDF_FORMAT_ID.

Fusing NetCDF data to a raster coverage preserves the multi-dimensional and multi-band nature of the source data. The dimensional information of the source data can be accessed using RasterAssetPart.getDimensions() and RasterAssetPart.Builder.dimensions(). You can restrict the dimensional information to a subset of the source data's using TLfnRasterCoverageMetadata.getDimensions() and TLfnRasterCoverageMetadata.Builder.dimensions().

Fusing NetCDF data to an image coverage renders RGB images from the multi-dimensional source data, and requires a dimensional filter of the same sort that you would use when visualizing the multi-dimensional data. You can define a dimensional filter, consisting of a specific combination of a single dimensional value for each dimension, using TLfnRasterCoverageMetadata.getDimensions() and TLfnRasterCoverageMetadata.Builder.dimensions().

It is now possible to decode one or more specific NetCDF variables out of a source file using a file:// URI with query parameters. This can be used to reduce load time when you only need a specific subset of variables out of a NetCDF source file that has many variables. For example, given the source file:///dir/netcdf.nc?variable=U&variable=V, the decoder decodes only the U and V components of wind, regardless of any other variables which may be present in the source file.

ArcSDE has been discontinued by Esri as of ArcGIS 10.3.

See these links for more information:
  • http://downloads2.esri.com/support/TechArticles/W34229_DEPRECATION_PLAN_FOR_ARCGIS_10_4_and_10_3_1__082015.pdf
  • http://blogs.esri.com/esri/supportcenter/2015/02/11/where-is-the-install-for-arcsde-10-3/

Therefore the ARC_SDE_VECTOR_FORMAT_ID and ARC_SDE_RASTER_FORMAT_ID constants in ALfnFormat have been deprecated.

As an alternative to the ArcSDE connector, LuciadLightspeed offers direct connectors for the spatial database back-ends supported by ArcSDE/ArcGIS: SQL Server, Oracle Spatial, DB2, Informix, PostGIS or SAP Hana.
You can also use any of the OGC services (WMS, WFS, WCS).

To enable WCS request parameter access when customizing request-related operations (data decoding, data encoding), a few API changes have been introduced:
  • A new class TLcdWCSRequestContext has been introduced to access request context parameters such as the original HTTP request and the requested coverage(s).
  • The signature of the method ILcdWCSModelEncoderFactory#createModelEncoder(ILcdModel, ILcdOutputStreamFactory, String) has been changed into ILcdWCSModelEncoderFactory#createModelEncoder(ILcdModel, ILcdOutputStreamFactory, String, TLcdWCSRequestContext).
  • The signature of the methods in ILcdCoverageOfferingList have been changed by means of the introduction of an extra argument of type TLcdWCSRequestContext.
  • The methods ILcdCoverageOfferingList#getCoverageOffering(int, TLcdWCSRequestContext) and ILcdCoverageOfferingList#getCoverageOffering(String, TLcdWCSRequestContext) can now throw an IOException.

The change will impact WCS implementations that implement ILcdWCSModelEncoderFactory and/or ILcdCoverageOfferingList. Affected implementations can simply update the signature ignore the new TLcdWCSRequestContext parameter.

To enable the integration of the Luciad imaging API and its TLcdGXYImagePainter for SLD raster styling in GXY views, the dependency on ILcdRasterPainter has been removed from the API. More specifically:
  • ILcdSLDRasterPainterConfigurator and its implementation TLcdRasterPainterConfigurator have been removed.
  • The factory method TLcdSLDSymbolizerPainterFactory#createRasterPainterConfigurator has been removed.
  • The javadoc of the factory method TLcdSLDSymbolizerPainterFactory#createRasterPainterProvider no longer requires an ILcdRasterPainter as return type. Any painter provider capable of rendering rasters is sufficient.
This only impacts users that manually interacted with ILcd/TLcdRasterPainterConfigurator. If this is the case, raster painter customization should be moved to TLcdSLDSymbolizerPainterFactory#createRasterPainterProvider.

The Java Servlet dependency has been upgraded from version 2.5 to 3.0. Consequently, an application server or servlet container with support for Java Servlet 3.0 or higher is now required for deployment of the server - for instance, Tomcat 7 or higher. The impact of this is expected to be low since Java Servlet 3.0 is widely adopted by application server and servlet container products for over 6 years. The servlet container delivered with the Luciad products, Jetty 8, already supports Servlet 3.0

TLfnTileStoreModelDescriptor no longer implements ILcdEarthModelDescriptor. TLfnRasterTileStoreModelDescriptor no longer implements ILcdImageModelDescriptor, rather the concrete internal implementation classes do, but only when applicable:
  • ILcdImageModelDescriptor if the model follows the imaging API. This is the case when the coverage type is RASTER.
  • ILcdEarthModelDescriptor if the model follows the tile set API. This is the case when the coverage type is MULTIVALUED and in some cases also when it is ELEVATION.
  • Both if the model is a hybrid following both these APIs. This is the case when the coverage type is IMAGE and in in most cases also when it is ELEVATION.
This means that TLfnRasterTileStoreModelDescriptor cannot be assigned to any of the aforementioned interfaces without a cast. Model descriptors of specific models will still implement these interfaces, so you can fix any compile errors by doing a type check on the model descriptor before casting.

The signature of the ALspLabelLocationProvider methods was modified to take an ILspLabelingAlgorithm.LabelContext and an ILspView as method parameter instead of a TLspContext. This makes it possible for implementations of ALspLabelLocationProvider to retrieve context information such as the elevation mode, or the previous label location.

Implementations of ALspLabelLocationProvider will now generate a compile error that can be resolved by modifying the signature accordingly. If TLspContext was used, it can now be retrieved using the following line of code: 

      TLspContext aContext = aLabelContext.getContext(aLabel.getLayer(), aView);

Default Adobe Flash output support in the WMS server has been removed. The API class that supported this, TLcdGXYViewSWFEncoder, and the corresponding dependency on JGenerator 2.2 (jgen-2.2.jar and log4j-1.2.15.jar) have therefore been removed from the product.

If you did not explicitly use Adobe Flash output, this will cause no impact other than a potential build script update (because of the removed libraries). If you did use Adobe Flash output and prefer to keep its support in the Luciad WMS, you can request the source code of TLcdGXYViewSWFEncoder, the JGenerator 2.2 library and integration instructions by sending a mail to support@luciad.com.

The OGC spatial filter now automatically determines the spatial property when the <BBOX> element does not specify a <propertyName> element. The spatial property is determined from the data type:
  • If the data type has a TLcdHasGeometryAnnotation, the spatial property is defined by it.
  • If not, it is the property of type ILcdShape.
  • In case there are multiple such properties, an appropriate exception report is generated. This is consistent with the OGC Filter 1.1.0 specification which states that a <propertyName> element is required when there are multiple spatial properties.

  • Recognition of output formats has been made more lenient towards casing differences: both "subType" and "subtype" are now recognized in outputFormat parameters such as "text/xml; subType=gml/3.1.1".
  • Recognition of output formats has been made (even) more lenient towards alternative names for formats: "text/xml; subType=gml/3.1.1/profiles/gmlsf/1.0.0/0" is now for example also recognized as GML Simple Features Profile.

Fixed a bug when opening vector coverages in the DCM with tile format "application/vnd.luciad.vector.gzip:1.0", which could result in an "Unexpected major version 1 != 0" error upon visualization. This bugfix prevents the issue in the future, but it doesn't fix affected coverages. You'll have to fix affected coverages manually:
  1. Find the Tile Store's root directory, where tile-store.xml is located.
  2. Edit the corresponding coverage's XML file in the Coverages subdirectory.
  3. Locate "<lts:FormatVersion>" tag and change its value from "0" to "1.0".
If you're running a server, you'll need to stop the server before the edit and restart it afterwards. If you're a programmer, you can also change this by editing the ALfnCoverageMetadata and setting coverageMetadata.asBuilder().formatVersion("1.0").build(). Be sure to do this only for the affected coverages!

LuciadFusion now supports point-sampled elevation data. By default, the sampling mode of the assets is preserved in the coverage, but it can be set manually as well. Point-sampled and area-sampled assets can be mixed into either a point-sampled or area-sampled coverage. The interpolation of values from the assets' rasters into the coverage's raster takes care of converting the values from assets that have a different sampling mode than the coverage.
  • You can inspect the sampling mode of coverage with TLfnRasterCoverageMetadata.getSamplingMode().
  • A coverage decoded as a LuciadFusion model offers its data as both an ILcdEarthTileSet and an ALcdImageMosaic, so that it integrates with both the tile set API and the imaging API. However, only the imaging API can accurately visualize point-sampled data. Due to the lack of a point-sampled notion in the tile set API, the data will always be interpreted as area-sampled, resulting in inaccuracies such as pixels which are shifted slightly out of place. When working with point-sampled data, it is thus strongly recommended to use the imaging API. The tile set API is only supported for backwards compatibility.
  • Point-sampled coverages have tile width and height +1 compared to their area-sampled equivalent with the same pixel density (resolution).

Opening a KML file containing Collada 3D objects on a Lightspeed view will show the Collada data. An example use-case is a KML file referring to a set of Collada files representing the buildings of a city.

When opening a KML file containing a Collada model on a GXY view, only the bounds of the Collada model will be shown.

Added a keep-alive mechanism to replication and import/export protocols. Keep-alives kick in after 15s of no connection activity, with an interval of 15s. This prevents the client from timing out in case the operation takes a long time to respond. Old clients will throw upon these keep-alives, so you should upgrade all clients before upgrading your servers. When import/export and replication remain within the keep-alive interval, no keep-alives are used and the protocol remains backwards compatible, but there is no way to guarantee this up front. Affected operations:
  • Import/export
  • Replication
Use cases that benefit from the new keep-alive mechanism:
  • Replication of large coverages with an AOI, where a lot of tiles are skipped, resulting in long periods of connection inactivity.
  • Scheduling of multiple import/export jobs, where jobs need to wait for others to finish.

The LuciadFusion API was simplified to allow no more than a single coverage per model. It is no longer possible to decode multiple coverages per model. You may need to adjust your custom code:
  • Callers of TLfnTileStoreModelDecoder.decode need to be adjusted to match the method signature. Use a single String instead of aString[].
  • Callers of ALfnTileStoreModel.setCoverageIds need to be adjusted to use setCoverageId instead.
  • Callers of TLfnTileStoreModelDescriptor.getCoverageMetadatas or TLfnTileStoreDataSource.getCoverageMetadatas need to be adjusted to use getCoverageMetadata instead.
  • Custom extensions of any of the aforementioned classes need to be adjusted to match the new method signatures. Implementations should be adjusted to work with a single coverage ID instead of multiple ones.
There are almost no practical use cases for allowing multiple coverages per model. In case you need it, you can still do it manually:
  • Decode all the relevant coverages into their own models.
  • Get theILcdEarthTileSetCoverages from theILcdEarthTileSets of the separate models, and combine them into a newILcdEarthTileSet. Beware that you can only do this if their coverage structures match.
  • Put the combined ILcdEarthTileSet into a newILcdModel.

Default behavior was selected by setting numberOfDigits to -1. This is now equivalent to setting the numberOfDigits to 7. There is no way to restore the old behavior.

LuciadFusion now supports replication of tile stores. Given a target tile store, replication lets you define a source tile store to replicate data from. The main entry point is the classTLfnReplication. Replication allows you to:
  • Select which coverages or updates to replicate before initiating the actual replication.
  • Define an area of interest to limit the coverage size on the replica (only for tiled raster coverages). Tiles are filtered such that only those overlapping with the area of interest are replicated.
Replication has some interesting properties:
  • It is symmetrical, meaning that there is nothing which inherently defines a tile store to be source or target. Any tile store can be used as source or target at any given moment.
  • It replicates all resources: coverages, assets and themes. Replication operates on both a resource's metadata and data, but the data is only replicated as part of a coverage. This means that, for asset sources in tile store, the asset sources are replicated only if the asset is part of a coverage.
  • Resources are globally identified across tile stores based on the resource ID, which must be globally unique. Updates are detected based on the global update sequence of a resource, which has the semantics of a 'last modified' timestamp.

The fusion of tile set formats has been optimized: if all conditions are met, input tile data is copied raw into the target coverage, without any overhead or image rendering. The conditions are:
  • The coverage must be a raster coverage.
  • The asset must be of a tile set format. A tile set format is a format that creates models with an ILcdTileSet as element. By definition, the tiling structure thus must be power-of-two.
  • The coverage must have exactly one asset with one asset part. For example a single WMTS layer.
  • The coverage's tiling structure must match that of the asset.
  • The coverage's tile format must match the native format class of the tile set.
  • The native format class
By default, a coverage will be automatically configured to meet these conditions if possible. There are two default tile set formats:
  • WMTS
  • Geospatial PDF
You can of course define your own tile set format, in which case you must take the above conditions into account.

A new data type annotation, TLcdHasGeometryAnnotation, allows specifying that an object's geometry is contained in one or more of its properties. This annotation is mainly used to model ILcdDataObject domain objects that do not extend from ALcdImage, see ALcdImage#fromDomainObject(). All API classes that support ALcdImage domain objects, such as TLcdGXYImagePainter, TLspRasterLayerBuilder, and TLcdGeoTIFFModelEncoder, now support these annotated domain objects as well.

LuciadFusion now supports replication of tile stores. Given a target tile store, replication lets you define a source tile store to replicate data from. To initiate replication, choose 'Replicate Tile Store' from a tile store's context menu to initiate replication.
  1. Select a source to replicate data from. The DCM will go in 'Replication mode', and resources eligible for replication be marked in the tile store tree.
  2. You can reject replication for individual resources by choosing 'Revert' from the resource's context menu. This will unmark them for replication.
  3. You can define an area of interest to limit the coverage size on the replica (only for tiled raster coverages). An area of interest is defined on a tile store, but you can tie them to a specific coverage by selecting the coverage and then select the area of interest from the drop-down box in the metadata editor.
  4. Click 'Commit' and 'Start jobs' to start replication.
  5. You can exit replication mode at any time by clicking 'Revert' at the bottom of the Tile Store Manager.
Replication has some interesting properties:
  • It is symmetrical, meaning that there is nothing which inherently defines a tile store to be source or target. Any tile store can be used as source or target at any given moment.
  • It replicates all resources: coverages, assets and themes. Replication operates on both a resource's metadata and data, but the data is only replicated as part of a coverage. This means that, for asset sources in tile store, the asset sources are replicated only if the asset is part of a coverage.
  • Resources are globally identified across tile stores based on the resource ID, which must be globally unique. Updates are detected based on the global update sequence of a resource, which has the semantics of a 'last modified' timestamp.

  • If the ILcdModelEncoder you used to return is an instance of a class not under your control, you can wrap it using TLcdWFSModelEncoder and give it a content type.

You can now visually compare multiple layer sets by swiping or flickering using TLspSwipeController and TLspFlickerController. Swiping is done by dragging a swipe line horizontally or vertically, hiding the right/bottom part of the first layer set and the left/top part of the other layer set. Flickering is done by (quickly) clicking the mouse button and toggling visibility of two or more layer sets. You can customize these controllers or use them to implement actions that swipe or flicker programmatically. These visual change detection tools work with any layer or painter, in 2D and 3D. As an illustration, you can enable the swipe or flicker controller from the lightspeed.imaging.multispectral sample.

LF-640
The LTS mechanism for conditionally getting tiles based on modification times in ETag/If-None-Match headers was fundamentally flawed. The ETag headers were interpreted on the client as milliseconds, which
  1. is against the ETag principle (it must be used as an opaque value);
  2. broke down in more advanced server scenarios where servlet filters may change the ETag headers (for example GzipFilter in Jetty 8).
ETag headers were initially chosen over Last-Modified headers because they offered support for millisecond precision. The ETag mechanism is now replaced with custom X-Luciad-Last-Modified-Milliseconds/X-Luciad-If-Modified-Since-Millisecond headers, with a fallback to standard HTTP Last-Modified/If-Modified-Since headers. The custom headers offer millisecond precision, while the standard headers offer compatibility. If you use a proxy to access a LuciadFusion server, you should configure the proxy to pass on these custom headers unmodified if possible. If the custom headers are stripped by the proxy, you lose millisecond precision of LTS tile modification times. Everything else, such as caching, still works correctly based on the standard headers.

ALfnCoverageMetadata.Builder now uses auto-defaults for its properties based on the asset metadata, if this asset metadata is available to the builder. This means that it is no longer required to set all the required properties on the builder. You can set only those properties that you want to set explicitly, and all the others will be set to defaults based on the asset metadata. The asset metadata can be made available to the builder in one of two ways:
  1. By passing an ILfnResourceResolver when constructing the builder. There are two implementations of this interface:
    • ALfnTileStore: resolves resources from a Tile Store.
    • TLfnCollectionResourceMetadataResolver: resolves resources from a collection.
  2. By passing the asset metadata themselves to the builder using ALfnCoverageMetadata.Builder.addAssetInfo(ALfnAssetMetadata, String).
Examples of auto-defaults (non-exhaustive list):
  • A coverage's default ID is a UUID. This actually applies to assets too: you no longer need to set an ID on the ALfnAssetMetadata.Builder.
  • A coverage's default geographic reference is the common geographic reference of the assets. If the assets have no common geographic reference, the default geodetic reference WGS 84 is used (EPSG:4326).
  • A coverage's default bounding box is the union of the asset's bounding boxes.
  • A vector coverage's default data model is a superset of the asset's data models.
If the asset metadata is not available to the builder, the auto-defaults will use constant defaults such as geodetic reference and world bounds. The auto-defaults are active as long as you're updating a builder, but once you've built a coverage metadata the knowledge of whether a property value is an auto-default is lost.

The package com.luciad.imaging introduces a new API to perform various image processing operations on raster data. The package defines a new representation for image data (ALcdImage), which supports multi-band and HDR imagery. It also provides a number of operators, such as band select or convolution, which can be applied to images. In GXY views, images can be visualized using the new TLcdGXYImagePainter. In Lightspeed views, TLspRasterLayerBuilder supports the new image types and the new TLspImageFilterStyle can be used to perform image processing on raster layers in a view. Please refer to the package javadoc and to the developer's guide for more information.

An appropriate HTTP status code is now set on the response in case of a service exception report: 4xx for client request errors, 5xx for server errors.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

LuciadFusion now supports fusion of floating point elevation values. There are some limitations:
  • The input format needs to support floating point elevation values as well. GeoTIFF is currently the only format that supports this.
  • The new elevation tile format "image/tiff" provides optimal support for floating point values and is the new default. Old clients will not be able to visualize coverages with this new tile format. For backwards compatibility, you need to explicitly set "image/png" as tile format on the coverage.
  • The old "image/png" tile format also provides limited support for decimal values by scaling them. The drawback is that the precision is unpredictable because the scaling depends on the max./min. values which are different in each tile.
  • It may be beneficial to use "image/tiff" even if the input format does not support floating point elevation values: fusion interpolates the values, in which case it makes sense to preserve their floating point nature even if the input values themselves are not floating point.
  • The "image/tiff" tile format can also be used for multivalued data. Even though there is currently no input format that supports floating point multivalued data, it may still be beneficial to use this new tile format to preserve floating point values: fusion interpolates the values, in which case it makes sense to preserve their floating point nature even if the input values themselves are not floating point.

The creation of a layer for Fusion vector data has been simplified. The classes which are available in the API have been extended to support more use cases by default:

TLfnGXYVectorLayer: used to visualize Fusion vector data in GXY views

  • When the vector coverage for which the layer is created contains SLD feature type styles, the visualization will automatically use those feature type styles for styling (bodies and labels).
  • When the vector coverage for which the layer is created contains VPF data, the visualization will automatically use GeoSym styling.
  • When the vector coverage defines OGC filters, the filters will be respected during the visualization.
  • The layer contains by default a label painter based on the ILcdDataModel of the coverage.

Consult the javadoc of TLfnGXYVectorLayer for more information.

TLspFusionVectorLayerBuilder: used to visualize Fusion vector data in Lightspeed views

  • When the vector coverage for which the layer is created contains SLD feature type styles, those feature type styles define the styling which will be used during the visualization.
  • When the vector coverage for which the layer is created contains VPF data, the visualization will automatically use GeoSym styling.
  • When the vector coverage defines OGC filters, the filters will be respected during the visualization.
  • A label styler is added by default.

TLcdEarthGXYRasterPainter now uses a startResolutionFactor of 100 by default instead of infinity. As a result the bounds of the raster may be painted instead of the tiles when zoomed out a lot. This avoids excessive memory usage when visualizing many tile sets or when a tile set has a very large number of tiles at the least detailed level. The latter can for example happen unexpectedly when using an external tile service. You can revert to the old behavior by calling startResolutionFactor(Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY).

The TLcdS63UnifiedModelDecoder, TLcdS63CatalogueModelDecoder and TLcdS63ModelDecoder now automatically pick up basic/meta permit files which are located next to the source file. This avoids the need to configure those permits on the model decoder itself.

The sample class S63ModelDecoder was removed: it configured the sample permit, and was annotated with @LcdService so that the sample data could be loaded with the service-loader-based model decoder. Since the TLcdS63UnifiedModelDecoder now automatically picks up the permit, this is not necessary anymore.

The Lightspeed SLD styler, TLspSLDStyler, used the scale at the center of the map to evaluate rules. This has been changed and it now uses the scale at the center of the projection. This scale is constant over the whole view.

The previous behavior would result in unexpected behavior when e.g. using SLD in combination with tiled WMS requests. Part of a feature could be visible on one tile, but hidden on the other tile as the scale varied between those two tiles.

ILfnResourceMetadataResolver: the signature of the method getResourceMetadata has changed.
  • It now declares to throw IOException and TLfnServiceException.
  • It returns a generic type argument allowing the user to omit a cast.
These changes make the method signature compatible with the same method on ALfnTileStore, so that ALfnTileStore can now implement ILfnResourceMetadataResolver. Decorator implementations of ILfnResourceMetadataResolver will need to throw on these exceptions. Callers of this method will need to be adjusted to deal with the exceptions. A typical handling will be to ignore or to log the exceptions and treat them the same way as if the call would have returned null.

TLpsFusionVectorLayerBuilder: you can now set any ILspStyler on the builder, without triggering tile loading of the most detailed level.

Prior to this release, you had to make sure that the ILspStyler which was set used a TLspFusionGeometryProvider. If this was forgotten, you would probably trigger the loading of the most detailed tiles, even when visualizing tiles at a less detailed level.

The TLpsFusionVectorLayerBuilder will now automatically ensure that the ILspStyler works with the correct geometries. Consult the class javadoc of TLpsFusionVectorLayerBuilder for more information.

This improvement has two consequences:

  • The ILspStyler which is returned by the ILspInteractivePaintableLayer#getStyler method of the created layer will no longer be the styler which was set on the builder.
  • If your ILspStyler uses an ALspStyleTargetProvider, this style target provider will no longer receive the domain objects as it was previously the case. It will receive the geometries specific to a tile instead. Consult the class javadoc of TLpsFusionVectorLayerBuilder for more information.

With the introduction of support for non-quadtree tile matrix sets, it is no longer guaranteed that WMTS models (created via TLcdWMTSModelDecoder) contain an ILcdEarthTileSet domain object. If a layer's tile structure is not a quadtree, the created domain object (via TLcdWMTSModelDecoder) is an extension of ALcdMultilevelImageMosaic. In this case you can no longer explicitly cast the domain object to an ILcdEarthTileSet as before. If the tile structure is a quadtree, the created domain object can be casted to both ILcdEarthTileSet and ALcdMultilevelImageMosaic.

AssetParts now always belong to a parent asset metadata, to which they now have a reference. They can no longer be created as stand-alone instances. The constructors of RasterAssetPart and VectorAssetPart have been removed. As a result, users of any of these constructors will get compile errors which can be fixed by using either AssetPart.Builders or one of the methods addAssetPart or setAssetPart on TLfnRasterAssetMetadata.Builder or TLfnVectorAssetMetadata.Builder.

The AssetPart.Builders can be created using the method ALfnAssetMetadata.Builder.newAssetPart(). When the asset metadata is built, its asset parts will have a reference to it.

There are convenience methods TLfnRaster/VectorAssetMetadata.Builder.addAssetPart and setAssetPart, with which you can immediately add an asset part with its relevant parameters without the need to create a builder.

ALfnAssetMetadata.Builder.getAssetParts has been replaced with ALfnAssetMetadata.Builder.getAssetPartBuilders. This method allows you to inspect the properties of the asset parts being built, without the need to build the asset metadata just yet.

The Fusion WMS server now supports serving S-57 data with pixel-perfect rendering at any scale. This feature will automatically be enabled for coverages that have been fused with asset sources in Tile Store. You can combine this with a tile structure or not, depending on the use case.
  • Standard tiled coverage: for serving pre-rendered S-57 tiles. Pixel-perfect rendering is limited to a fixed style, a set of discrete scales and a fixed geographic reference. Supported protocols are WMS, WMTS and LTS.
  • Tiled coverage with asset sources in Tile Store: same as above, plus the flexibility to use client-side WMS styling. Supported protocols are WMS, WMTS and LTS.
  • Non-tiled coverage (always with asset sources in Tile Store): for serving pixel-perfect S-57 images at any scale, in any geographic reference, with any style. There are no pre-rendered tiles. WMS is the only supported protocol.

A new sample, samples.wms.client.ecdis.gxy, has been added, illustrating how to connect to an ECDIS-supporting WMS server and customize the WMS layer rendering, by including S-52 styling parameters in the GetMap requests. This sample requires a running, ECDIS-supporting LuciadFusion server (ECDIS WMS is supported in LuciadFusion from version 2013.1). See the sample documentation and developer guide for more information.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

Fusion supports copying of a coverage's asset sources to the Tile Store, if this is so specified in the coverage metadata. If a coverage's asset sources are in the Tile Store, it no longer requires tiles and may be non-tiled. From this perspective, there are now three kinds of coverages:
  1. Tiled raster or vector coverages without asset sources in Tile Store. These are the regular coverages you're already familiar with.
  2. Tiled coverages with asset sources in Tile Store. These hybrid coverages behave as regular tiled coverages, in addition offer support for WMS GetFeatureInfo requests.
  3. Non-tiled coverages with asset sources in Tile Store. Due to the absence of tiles, these coverages cannot be visualized using a regular fusion client. They can only be visualized using a WMS client.
A limitation is that this only works for S-57 asset sources. Fusion will fail otherwise.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

TLspShapeLayerBuilder has a new synchronous() method. This forces created layers to paint synchronously, i.e. to perform discretization and other non-rendering tasks on the EDT.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The fusion metadata model now supports specifying a non-tiled coverage. Such a coverage is identified by its metadata class TLfnNonTiledCoverageMetadata. It has no tile-specific information such as type, format and so on. Non-tiled coverages always have asset sources in Tile Store. Due to the absence of tiles, they cannot be visualized with a regular fusion client, only with a WMS client. These coverages will be invisible to older clients.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

WMS GetMap requests support client-side styling for non-tiled coverages with S-57 asset sources. A client-side style can be passed as argument a WMS GetMap request, and has precedence over a coverage's default styling. Due to the absence of tiles, non-tiled coverages cannot be accessed with LTS, only with WMS.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

Latency of filled shape painting using TLspShapePainter has been considerably reduced, especially for large shapes. This is due to a much improved triangulation algorithm in TLspShapeDiscretizer. The old triangulation algorithm can still be re-enabled using the system property -Dcom.luciad.view.lightspeed.geometry.discretization.TLspShapeDiscretizer.gluTesselator=true.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

ALfnFormat.getName() now returns a unique name such as "VPF", "S-57", "GeoTIFF". If not explicitly specified, this name defaults to the display name of the model decoder, which is the old behavior.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The fusion metadata model now supports specifying the format of the asset, such as "S-57" or "GeoTIFF". This allows identification of an asset's format without having to decode it.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

When a coverage is fused with its asset sources in the Tile Store, WMS GetFeatureInfo requests will automatically be enabled for that coverage. In order to keep the GetMap and GetFeatureInfo in sync, the Tile Store's commit policy must be configured to PER_COVERAGE in the web.xml deployment descriptor. Otherwise the information returned by GetMap may be running ahead of that returned by GetFeatureInfo.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The fusion metadata model now supports specifying that the asset sources must be stored in the Tile Store. This can be specified on the coverage metadata. The presence of asset sources in the Tile Store enables WMS GetFeatureInfo requests for a coverage. There are limitations as to the input data formats:
  • S-57 catalogues and cells are supported.
  • All other formats only supported if the source is a single file. Auxiliary files are lost. Fusion does not fail on these formats, instead it copies only a single asset source.
  • Only files are supported, not streams in general.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

OGC GeoPackage is now supported.
  • You can open .gpkg files using TLcdGeoPackageModelDecoder. You can use a shape layer to visualize vector data, or a raster layer to visualize raster data, as demonstrated in the common decoder sample: samples.lightspeed.decoder.MainPanel
  • You can create .gpkg files using TLcdGeoPackageModelEncoder, as demonstrated in samples.encoder.sqlite.geopackage.Main

S-52 styling support has been added for S-57 raster and vector coverages. An SLD-based S-52 symbolizer can be included in the coverage metadata to specify the display settings with which the coverage should be rendered. See the s52-sld.xsd schema in the ECDIS component resources (resources/com/luciad/format/s52/s52-sld.xsd) for the exact XML Schema definition.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

SQLite has been updated to version 3.8.0.2.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The fusion metadata model now supports specifying one or more SLD feature type styles for coverage metadata. The feature type styles are used for two purposes: to specify how data should be styled when fusing as raster, and to provide a default style for rendering vector data via WMS, if WMS clients do not specify a custom style. To support this, the LTS protocol version has been upgraded to LTS 1.0.5. ALfnCoverageMetadata now provides a getter and setter for TLcdSLDFeatureTypeStyle's.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

ALfnFormat now provides an ILcdSLDGXYLayerFactory, enabling SLD-based styling of data. By specifying SLD feature type styles in the coverage metadata, you can now customize how data needs to be rendered for formats that support SLD (currently only SHP and S-57).

ImprovementLuciadFusion

The Fusion WMS server now supports WMS queries with embedded SLD-encoded S-52 display settings. This allows each WMS client to use its own, ship-specific S-52 display settings. Fallback S-52 display settings can be added in the SLD entry of the coverage metadata, to specify a fallback behavior if a non-S-52-aware WMS client is querying the server. If no fallback is specified, the server will use the official defaults from the S-52 specification.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

ALcdWMSProxy can now be configured with an SLD or SLD URL to be encoded in GetMap requests.

ImprovementLuciadFusion

TLcdWMSClient and TLcdOGCWMSProxyModelDecoder now support custom SLD extensions (to allow plugging in custom SLD content in the GetMap request). New constructors have been added for these classes, which allow to pass the TLcdDataModel of the extension.

When fusing S-57 catalogs as raster, the resulting rasterized coverage now visually matches the input data better.
  • The compilation scale is used to determine the maximum level of detail of the resulting coverage.
  • The navigational purpose scale is used to determine the minimum level of detail at which data becomes visible in a coverage.
  • The coverage now has underscale indicators by default.
  • The coverage now has overscale indicators by default. These will never become visible "earlier" than in the input data. They may become visible "later" than in the input data, but never later than twice the scale of the input data. The coverage will have exactly one level with overscale indicators, and that is the most detailed level.
  • There is at least one level in the coverage where the data is visible without overscale indicators.
  • Using square pixels minimizes visual rasterization artifacts such as "squashed" icons. New static methods have been added to TLfnTileStoreUtil to adjust coverage layout, tile size and bounding box to ensure square pixels in the coverage's native georeference.

    You can now decode multiple catalogues simultaneously as one virtual catalogue by passing a file 'MULTICATALOG.031' to TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder.decode(), which should be located in the common parent directory of all catalogues to be decoded. The file is only used as a marker file, to be recognizable by the decoder (TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder.canDecodeSource() will return true for these files), and should be empty.

    TLcdS52DisplaySettings now implements ILcdDataObject. The color scheme, point symbol type, area symbol type and display category are now also available as Java enumerations, and are used as property types in the S-52 display settings data type.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    A custom XML Schema is now provided for encoding of S-52 display settings, together with a decoder/encoder implementation to save/restore a TLcdS52DisplaySettings to/from XML. The schema can be found in the ECDIS resources jar, in com/luciad/format/s52/s52.xsd. An XML decoder/encoder can be instantiated by configuring the TLcdS52DataTypes class on a TLcdXMLSchemaBasedDecoder/TLcdXMLSchemaBasedEncoder instance.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    The useNationalLanguage flag is now available on TLcdS52DisplaySettings, which aggregates all S-52 display configuration options. This is now the preferred place to enable/disable this flag.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    TLcdS52DisplaySettings now provides a 'scaleDenominator' setting as a way of configuring the scales for each navigational purpose. These scales are expressed as the ratio between one centimeter on the map and the corresponding number of centimeters in reality (similar to paper chart scales), and replace the existing 'scaleRanges' setting, which was device-dependent (pixels/meter). The 'scaleRanges' setting can still be used but will internally be converted into device-independent scale denominators; slight rounding errors may occur in the 'scaleRanges' values, due to the conversion.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder now supports conversion to a SENC (System ENC) format. SENC is a LuciadLightspeed specific format for representing S-57 data, optimized for optimal performance (reading and visualization). The SENC format is not intended for exchange purposes; it is available on TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder as an internal caching mechanism, and is automatically used if the setUseSENCCache(boolean) flag on TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder is enabled (default is false). See the javadoc of TLcdS57CatalogueModelDecoder for more information.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    ECDIS data can now be visualized on a Lightspeed view. The TLspS52LayerBuilder class been introduced which allows you to create ILspLayer instances for S57 data. The data will be visualized as specified by S52. The same TLcdS52DisplaySettings as in GXY can be used to customize the visualization.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    TLcdS57ProductConfiguration and TLcdS52ProductConfiguration can now be retrieved through getInstance instead of newInstance. The getInstance method will return a singleton instance that can be re-used where necessary. newInstance has been deprecated, you should replace these calls with getInstance.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    The decoding of S-57 data into ILcdModels and the visualization of those models on a GXY view has been simplified.

    • There is now a single model decoder available which can decode cells and catalogues for both the ENC and AML product type. See the TLcdS57UnifiedModelDecoder class.
    • There is now a single ILcdGXYLayerFactory which can create layers for all S-57 models (cells and catalogues of both product types). See the TLcdS52GXYLayerFactory class.
    • It is no longer required to order the models (see TLcdS52ProductConfiguration#createOrderedModelDecoder) before passing them to the layer factory. Therefore, the createOrderedModelDecoder method has been deprecated.

    The developer guide and corresponding javadoc has been updated to illustrate this. The developer guide contains code snippets illustrating the new simplified way of providing ECDIS visualisation to your application.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    TLcdS57ModelDescriptor now provides an optimized way of retrieving the compilation scale, which does not trigger the loading of the full cell. This allows much faster analysis of the data structure in e.g. LuciadFusion.

    Two bugs were fixed affecting some WMTS layer's tile matrix set limits, if defined.
    1. Tile matrix sets for less detailed levels are always included if there is a more detailed level for which a tile matrix set limit exists, even if the tiles for the less detailed levels are empty. This improves memory consumption on the WMTS client, and avoids potential OutOfMemoryErrors, especially for high-resolution coverages.
    2. Tile matrix set limits can never be about other levels than those defined by the tile matrix set itself.

    TLspShapePainter now only applies style change events from its own stylers. In particular, style events with the wrong event source will be ignored. This can happen when one styler decorates another styler, and forwards events without adapting the source. If you use a styler decorator, make sure it does not attach external listeners to its delegate directly. Instead, it should intercept the events of the delegate and re-fire the events, as shown here: 
            public class StylerDecorator extends ALspStyler {
            private final ILspStyler fDelegate;

            private StylerDecorator( ILspStyler aDelegate ) {

    TLfnCachingTileStore: a new client-side tile caching mechanism has been introduced on the API. It allows visualization to continue working offline when for example the server is offline. It may also speed up the visualization of tiles when a server is slow. By sweeping the oldest tiles, a best-effort attempt is made to keep the cache size roughly between a low and a high mark. Beware that the cache is not synced with the remote server, so it may serve outdated tiles for an indefinite amount of time.

    Terminology: a bounding shape has been renamed to a clipping shape. This brings LuciadFusion terminology in line with that of LuciadMap (Earth). This change reflected in the API and the documentation.
    • The method ALfnAssetMetadata.getBoundingShape() has been deprecated in favor of ALfnAssetMetadata.getClippingShape().
    • The builder method ALfnAssetMetadata.Builder.setBoundingShape() has been deprecated in favor of ALfnAssetMetadata.Builder.clippingShape().

    All setters on the metadata builders "setSomething(Something aSomething)" have been renamed to "something(Something aSomething)". This brings LuciadFusion conventions in line with those of LuciadLightspeed. The old setters have been deprecated for backwards compatibility, and refer to their new counterparts. Some examples (non-exhaustive list):
    • ALfnResourceMetadata.Builder.setId(String aId) => ALfnResourceMetadata.Builder.id(String aId)
    • TLfnVectorCoverageMetadata.Builder.setMaxLevel(int aLevel) => TLfnVectorCoverageMetadata.Builder.maxLevel(int aLevel)

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Fusion of coverages can now also be performed on the server. A system which is both fusion server and tile server is a typical setup. In a more advanced setup, client, fusion server and tile server are all different systems. The client and fusion server both require access to the source data. The data root of the source data may be different on the different machines. You can define path prefixes to make abstraction of system-specific data roots.

    Work has been done to centralize all the information about the fusion of a coverage on the tile server. If a fusion server breaks down, another fusion server has all the information it needs to be able to continue the work. Some configuration has been moved from the engine session to the coverage. Line simplification, area simplification, filtering etc. can now be configured on the coverage rather than on the engine session.

    The ILspGLResourceCache that is used by the painters to store OpenGL resources such as textures and discretized geometry has been optimized to reduce memory consumption. Next to configuring the cache's size in bytes, the cache can now also be restricted by specifying the maximal number of cache entries. See TLspViewBuilder#glResourceCacheMaxEntries(X) and the system property -Dcom.luciad.view.lightspeed.opengl.maxCacheEntries=X where X is the maximal number. By default there is no limit on the number of cached entries.

    The Lightspeed raster layers now support interactive color filtering. You can apply a custom color filter by using a TLspColorLookupTableFilterStyle. More details are available in the developer's guide and the javadoc of TLspRasterLayerBuilder. The lightspeed.style.raster sample also demonstrates applying a color filter to a raster. Finally, a new Image Filter theme in the LuciadLightspeed Demo also demonstrates this functionality (see samples.lightspeed.demo.application.data.imagefilter).

    KML now has native visualization support in ILspViews. Use TLspKML22LayerBuilder to create an ILspLayer for a KML model. To perform a view-fit action according to the KML specifications, you can use the TLspKML22ViewFitAction class.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Fusion engine checkpoints are now stored on the tile store in the coverage user data (see ALfnCoverage.getUserData).

    This means ALfnEngineEnvironment.getCheckpointDirectory is not used anymore. Using null to disable checkpoints is still valid, but instead you should set the checkpoint interval to -1 (you can set it with RasterSessionBuilder.setCheckpointInterval or VectorSessionBuilder.setCheckpointInterval).

    The Lightspeed raster layers no longer become blurry near the screen edges. This was especially noticeable in high resolution 3D views.

    As a result of this fix the painter may need to load and paint more data in a 3D view which can reduce the performance. This affects all raster layers, including the view's terrain, image projection layers and hypsometry layers. You can increase the performance of individual layers by using a TLspRasterStyle with a lower levelSwitchFactor. Note that the style of the view's terrain can be configured on the view's ILspTerrainSupport. Alternatively you can revert to the old behavior using the -Dcom.luciad.view.lightspeed.earth.adaptive3DLod=false JVM flag.

    The packaging of LuciadLightspeed has been streamlined:
    • The javadoc is now packaged in a separate zip file called Javadoc.zip. That way you can avoid downloading and extracting this documentation.
    • There are now more, but smaller, jar files for LuciadLightspeed. This avoids circular dependencies between jar files that were present in previous versions of LuciadLightspeed. That should make it easier to integrate the jar files in some build tools.
    • The jar files of third party libraries now contain the version number in their filename. That way you can easily determine the version of a jar file.
    • The resources of a jar file are no longer packaged in separate jar files. This way it is clearer that these resources are not optional. This also reduces the number of jar files that are included in the release. Only the optional geoid resources remain in a separate jar file.
    The prerequisites pages in the Technical notes section was updated to reflect these changes. Please take a look at those for more detailed information.

    Added support for creating a Lightspeed view that is not geographically referenced. The lightspeed.nongeoreferenced sample demonstrates this. To accommodate this the following API has changed:
    • A model with a reference that does not implement ILcdGeoReference is no longer interpreted as data defined in view coordinates. A null model reference is now used for data in view coordinates. This is demonstrated in the lightspeed.paintinview sample.
    • ALspStyleTargetProvider.getStyleTargetReference now returns an ILcdModelReference instead of an ILcdGeoReference. For all Luciad ILcdGeoReference implementations you can simply cast the reference to ILcdModelReference.
    • The default transformations now also support identity transformations between custom references.

    • rather than handling all events for all components and subcomponents of an interactive label via a single method, it will be needed to register listeners on the components for which events are required.

    An ILcdBounds instance can now be undefined. This means that the instance does not describe a geographic region. For this, there is a new method on ILcdBounds: isDefined(). Implementations must add this method. Usually, returning true is enough. Extensions of ALcd2DEditableBounds can use setDefined(boolean) to manage the defined status. The behavior of the LuciadLightspeed bounds implementations is mostly the same.
    • Use ALcdBounds.isDefined(aBounds) as a shorthand to check for null bounds or undefined bounds
    • Bounds transformations will throw TLcdNoBoundsException if the input bounds is undefined
    • Composite shapes such as ILcdShapeList, ILcdPointLists, ILcdPolygon, etc. will return undefined bounds if they are empty
    When creating new bounds instances using LuciadLightspeed implementations:
    • default (empty) constructors -> undefined
    • constructors with values -> defined
    • copy constructor -> copies defined status
    • clone* -> copies defined status
    • equals/hashCode -> take defined status into account
    When modifying bounds instances:
    • move?D, translate?D, setWidth, setHeight, setDepth -> instance becomes defined
    When testing with bounds instances:
    • undefined.contains?D(anything) = false
    • undefined.interacts?D(anything) = false
    • defined.contains?D(undefined bounds) = false
    • defined.interacts?D(undefined bounds) = false
    • Note: this means that new TLcdLonLatBounds().contains2D(0, 0) now returns false instead of true
    Calculating intersections:
    • Position, width and height are always updated as before
    • undefined.setTo?DIntersection(anything) -> stays undefined
    • defined.setTo?DIntersection(undefined bounds) -> becomes undefined
    • defined.setTo?DIntersection(defined bounds, but disjoint, no overlap) -> becomes undefined
    Calculating unions:
    • undefined.setTo?DUnion(defined bounds) -> becomes defined, equal to given bounds
    • defined/undefined.setTo?DUnion(undefined bounds) -> no change in bounds or defined status
    • setToIncludePoint?D -> same as union

    The implementation of ILcdExtrudedShape by TLcdAIXM5xVerticalStructurePart has been improved to be more consistent with how AIXM 5 data should be interpreted: the maximum Z corresponds to the elevation of the elevated point, surface or curve, while the minimum Z is the maximum Z minus the vertical extent.

    There will not be an impact on 3D visualization because the vertical structures are already moved during visualization to be aligned with the terrain.

    When creating a raster asset from a raster coverage, the bounding boxes and pixel densities of the individual original asset parts are now taken into account. This has a couple of interesting consequences:
    • Coverage cropping now also works efficiently for coverages with non-uniform pixel densities.
    • The pixelDensity argument of the TLfnTileStoreUtil.newCoverageAsAssetMetadataBuilder has become obsolete. This method has now been deprecated in favor of a new method without the pixelDensity parameter. The new method also throws appropriate exceptions when accessing the Tile Store fails. There is no longer any need to compute the pixel density upfront using

    SLD styles (TLcdSLDFeatureTypeStyle) can now be used in a Lightspeed view, through the TLspSLDStyler class. This styler supports the most commonly used features of the standard. Please refer to the developer guide for an overview.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    SLD now supports decoding and encoding of Symbology Encoding 1.1.0 styles. By default, new styles will also be saved as 1.1.0 styles.
    The following features from version 1.1.0 are supported:
    • Inline encoding of binary and svg icons.
    • New standardized functions such as interpolate, recode, formatDate, categorize,...
    • Line widths specified in world units.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    In order to optimize visualization of vector data for a specific use case, the ELfnDataDensity property was added to the coverage metadata. It is a hint for the visualization how the visualization should be optimized:
    • OVERVIEW is the optimal setting for vast otherwise not so detailed data, such as the world's coutries. This is the default.
    • DETAIL is the optimal setting for detailed data that does not need to be visible far towards the horizon, such as roads or buildings.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    It is now possible to plug in custom implementations of a metadata store, for example a database implementation.
    • ALfnBinaryMetadataStore provides the abstraction of a metadata store.
    • Constructors were added to TLfnFileSystemTileStore to allow these implementations to be plugged in.
    • A method ALfnTileStore.close() was added, which custom implementations may override to clean up held resources, such as database handles. Application code that owns a Tile Store instance should call this method when appropriate.

    A new ElevationMode 'OBJECT_DEPENDENT' can now be set on TLspLineStyle, TLspFillStyle and TLspIconStyle. This elevation mode tries to derive the most appropriate elevation mode based on the object and geometry that is being styled. The advantage of this new mode is that it is a good default when writing a styler for generic data.

    The Fusion Client now adds support for visualization of fused vector data in 2D and 3D Lightspeed views. TLspFusionVectorLayerBuilder provides API for creating Lightspeed layers for Fusion vector models. Styling can be done using default Lightspeed paradigms. GeoSym styling for fused VPF data is supported out-of-the-box.

    The features that are returned by the fusion vector model contain the full detail, which is lazily loaded upon access. This is perfect for limited amounts of features, but it does not scale well when handling features in bulk. For visualization you do not need to worry about this because it is solved internally. For custom use cases, the TLspFusionGeometryProvider supports retrieval of the multi-leveled, tiled geometry of a feature. This scales well whenever features need to be handled in bulk.

    Complex polygons containing duplicate polygons are unsupported by fusion.

    ALspDensityStyle and its descendants no longer implement ILspWorldElevationStyle.

    ILspEditor no longer extends ILcdUndoableSource. As a result, it is no longer possible to attach undoable listeners to editors in general. The functionality has been moved to TLspEditOperationResult. This object now stores an undoable. Like before, each edit operation will create a TLspEditOperationResult. This now has a getUndoable() and a constructor that allows you to supply the result with an undoable.

    So how does this affect your editors? The following rules should apply:

    • If you haven't customized any editors: No change in your code should be required.
    • If you implemented a simple ALspEditor: Everything should work without change to your code. ALspEditor itself has been modified internally to work with the new undo behavior. This will still propagate correctly to the edit controller.
    • If you implemented an ALspEditor that delegates to another editor: Make sure that you check the TLspEditOperationResult of your delegate first. If this contains an undoable, you should pass this undoable
    • If you implemented a fully custom ILspEditor: The same rules apply as the bullet point above. Also, if you generate your own undoables, be sure to create new TLspEditOperationResult objects that contain them, instead of firing the undoable as you would before.

    A general rule is that, if you had the following code:

          @Override
      public TLspEditOperationResult edit(...){
        //Do edit
        ILcdUndoable undoable = ...
        fireUndoableEvent(new TLcdUndoableEvent(this, undoable));
        return TLspEditOperationResult.SUCCESS;
      }

    You should replace it with:

          @Override
      public TLspEditOperationResult edit(...){
        //Do edit
        ILcdUndoable undoable = ...
        TLspEditOperationResult result = new TLspEditOperationResult(isSuccesful, isInvalid, undoable);
        return result;
      }

    The TLspExtrudedShapeEditor no longer returns true for the canEdit method in case its delegate can edit the shape, for consistency with all the other editors. Now each ALspEditor only accepts shapes it can edit itself. The new recommended way to create an editor that supports both extruded shapes and a specific delegate shape is as follows: 

          TLspCompositeEditor compositeEditor = new TLspCompositeEditor();
      compositeEditor.addEditor(new TLspExtrudedShapeEditor(compositeEditor));
      compositeEditor.addEditor(new TLsp2DPointListEditor());

    The example above works for when you want an editor that edits both 2D pointlists and extruded 2D pointlists.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    Some methods in ALspStyleCollectorWrapper and ALspLabelStyleCollectorWrapper have been made final. These methods now convert the argument and forward the call to another method of the wrapper class. An example is the 'object' method, which wraps its argument in a Collection and forwards the call to the 'objects' method. Now it is no longer needed to override both the 'object' and 'objects' method, but it is sufficient to override the 'objects' method.

    In case you have overridden one of the affected methods, you will get a compile error. Normally, you can just delete that overridden final method. The custom behavior of that method should already be included in the other method, otherwise your extension violated the documentation. So in case you had an extension of ALspStyleCollectorWrapper containing the following code: 

          @Override
      public ALspStyleCollectorWrapper object( Object aObject ){
        doSomethingCustom( Collections.singleton( aObject ) );
        return super.object( aObject );
      }
      @Override
      public ALspStyleCollectorWrapper objects( Collection<? extends Object> aObjects ){
        doSomethingCustom( aObjects );
        return super.objects( aObjects );
      }

    You can just delete the custom 'object' method.

    Absolute label locations are used by the StickyLabelsController sample class. When registering a layer to this controller using StickyLabelsController.registerLayer() (see also AbstractLspPanel.createStickyLabelsLayerFilter()), labels are made absolute and sticky when moving the mouse cursor over them. When this is done, labels don't move away from under the mouse cursor, making it easier to select and edit them.

    TLcdS57Point no longer extends from TLcdXYPoint. The geographical location of a TLcdS57Point is now stored in a TLcdS57Node, referenced by the TLcdS57Point. This matches better with the S-57 domain model, and allows easier editing of data: when an S-57 feature is moved, all other features sharing the same geometry are automatically moved as well. Applications are only affected if they explicitly cast TLcdS57Point instances to TLcdXYPoint. You can easily solve this by either casting to an ALcd2DEditablePoint or a TLcdS57Point instead. There are no methods removed from the TLcdS57Point API.

    Fusion was extended with a commit policy 'per coverage', in addition to the existing one 'per tile'. When configured in 'per coverage', new tiles will not be visible until fusion of the whole coverage is complete. This allows to keep a consistent view on a coverage's tiles: either no new tiles or all new tiles will be available at once. The existing commit policy 'per tile' is still the default. This policy allows tiles to be visible immediately, at the cost of a potentially inconsistent view of the coverage.

    The commit policy is defined on ALfnTileStore.CommitPolicy. It can be set programmatically via the constructor of TLfnFileSystemTileStore, or it can be configured in the servlet descriptor via the optional parameter fusion.tilestore.commitPolicy in the deployment descriptor (web.xml).

    The commit policy 'per coverage' does not work well with the fusion engine's checkpointing mechanism. When the server uses this commit policy, it is recommended to disable saving of checkpoints on the fusion engine environment. This can be done by setting the checkpoint directory to null on the ALfnEngineEnvironment.

    2012.0.06

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    This release contains over 500 enhancements, performance improvements, and fixes mainly in the Lightspeed view package and subpackages. The main highlights are improved vector shape rendering performance, improved icon and line rendering quality, improved terrain draping quality, improved label deconfliction and painting quality, fully customizable shape editing functionality, a powerful new layer query API, and many more. Externally requested changes are logged as individual release notes, others have been left out to keep the release notes concise. It is recommended to upgrade existing projects to this LuciadLightspeed version before analyzing any issues encountered.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLspLineStyle now has an additional property isBlendOverlap that can be configured using the builder. It allows to adjust the behavior when painting multiple overlapping lines with the same style. When set to false, all pixels covered will receive the same color, even if this color is transparent and if multiple lines cover the same pixel. If set to true, overlapping (transparent) lines will be blended together resulting in a less transparent color at their crossings.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LCD-1622
    The performance of asynchronous painting when working with many layers has been improved.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    New API has been introduced to allow more customization of the editing functionality in Lightspeed views. Please refer to the chapter "Creating and editing domain objects in a Lightspeed view" in the developer's guide for an overview of this new API. All API can be found in the package com.luciad.view.lightspeed.editor and its subpackages. The principal classes and interfaces are:
    • ILspEditor creates editing handles for a given domain object and applies editing operations to this object. Implementations of ILspEditor exist for each type of ILcdShape that can be edited.
    • ALspEditHandle is a small GUI widget which represents some modifiable part of a domain object (e.g. a vertex of a polyline) and which translates user input (e.g. mouse drags) into editing operations that can be applied to the underlying object.
    • TLspEditOperation describes such an operation and is passed from the handle back to the editor, where it is applied to the edited object.
    • ILspSnapper defines a mechanism for snapping objects to one another while they are being edited.
    • ALspMultiObjectHandle is a variant of ALspEditHandle which is used by TLspEditController to capture editing operations that apply to a group of edited objects instead of a single object.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYScaleIndicator can now also show a global, pan-independent scale.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLspDensityLayerBuilder has been added to facilitate creating layers with density plots of vector data.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A new elevation mode is available for TLspIconStyle: ABOVE_TERRAIN. It means that the icons are placed above the terrain. The elevation of the object is determined by adding the object's elevation to the terrain's elevation. Since icons are normally centered around this elevated point, it can be partially obscured by the terrain, depending on the view angle. To avoid this, you can either set a fixed offset on the TLspIconStyle, or add a TLspViewDisplacementStyle to allow the icon to be moved above the terrain dynamically depending on the view angle.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A new icon implementation TLcdCGMIcon has been added to the com.luciad.format.cgm package. This class supports the decoding of an icon that originates from a CGM file.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LCD-1474
    An attempt to decode a non-existent file using TLcdETOPOModelDecoder will now throw an appropriate IOException rather than return an invalid model.

    LCD-179
    TLcdColorMapCustomizer: the behavior of adding a level has been simplified to be more predictable. The new level is now always added between the selected and the next level.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdObliqueMercator: transforming from world to lon lat and from lon lat to world has become more consistent. Points that can be transformed in one direction can now always be transformed back.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    It is now possible to import an entire coverage from any Tile Store to any other Tile Store. The previously existing restriction that the source coverage had to be on a local Tile Store is hereby lifted. A new utility class TLfnTileStoreUtil provides additional convenience methods to copy coverages between Tile Stores.

    It is now possible to check the integrity of a local coverage. Each tile can have an optional checksum, according to the message digest algorithm specified on the coverage metadata.

    • TLfnDigestTileStore is a decorator which verifies tile checksums upon access. It defines a handler to receive notifications of corrupt tiles.
    • ALfnCoverage.getTileCoordinates provides iteration over all tiles in a coverage. It only works for local coverages retrieved through a TLfnFileSystemTileStore, not for remote ones retrieved through a TLfnLTSClient.

    ImprovementReal-time Engine

    LCD-1653
    ALcdTimeIndexedSimulatorModel no longer fires change events for empty models.

    The LOS sample now uses arc bands instead of circles as the input shape. This allows you to visually edit the range of the LOS calculation.

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    GeoSym definitions can now be reloaded programmatically. A reload can be triggered by reconfiguring the GeoSym definition paths on TLcdVPFGeoSymProvider.

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    TLcdVPFGeoSymProvider now provides methods for retrieving symbol ids for a given FACC feature, next to the existing methods for retrieving icons for a feature. The new methods allow to use the GeoSym rules with custom styles, independent of the provided built-in styles.

    The conversion from relative time to absolute time is now more robust.

    ImprovementRadar Connectors

    Sample class TrackSimulatorModel now also interpolates the track altitudes, not only the 3D location.

    ImprovementRadar Connectors

    The ASTERIX decoders can now filter on the record level, which allows to filter individual tracks while decoding. One could for example filter out tracks based on their SAC/SIC code (radar system), or ignore all coasted tracks. See also ILcdASTERIXRecordFilter, TLcdASTERIXSacSicRecordFilter and ALcdASTERIXDecoder.setRecordFilter.

    ImprovementRadar Connectors

    The ASTERIX decoders now support reading a subset of network capture files (PCAP files). It supports captures of raw Ethernet packages (LLC, IEEE 802.3), where no additional network protocols like IP or UDP are used. Replaying PCAP files is supported as well, please refer to TLcdASTERIXFinalReplayInputStream for more details.

    ImprovementRadar Connectors

    Support for version 2.5 ter of ASTERIX category 30 has been added. This is a draft version of the specification, released in 1997. It is binary incompatible with the final release of category 30 (v6.1 in 2000). It is therefore disabled by default. It can be enabled by setting TLcdASTERIXCategory30Version2Dot5Ter on the ALcdASTERIXDecoder.

    Changes to values in TLcdGeoSymDefaults are now correctly taken into account (some values were only read once during initialization of the GeoSym provider and not updated afterwards).

    Bug fixDefense Symbology

    LCD-1658
    The direction of the triangles on the outline of the Encirclement symbol (MIL-STD 2525b 2.X.2.6.2.3, APP-6A 2.X.2.1.6.1.1.1) should always point outwards, regardless of the orientation of the shape.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The API of all asynchronous methods on ALfnCoverage and ALfnTileStore has been made consistent. The changes:
    • All asynchronous methods return a Future which can be used to block for the result or to cancel the operation
    • All asynchronous methods require an extension of ILfnFailureHandler defining the throwables which may happen during asynchronous operation. This is the equivalent of a 'throws' clause of a synchronous method.
    • Exceptions are propagated via the asynchronous handler, or via an ExecutionException thrown when blocking for the result using Future.get(). In case of multiple exceptions, it is the first one which is propagated. Either one of these mechanisms can be used, they are equivalent.
    • ILfnFailureHandler has an addition callback method cancelled(CancellationException) next to interrupted(InterruptedException). The former happens when a Future is cancelled, while the latter happens when a thread was unexpectedly interrupted.

    Beware that, even though methods have an asynchronous signature, they may do some of their work synchronously. Even in this case, throwables which are thrown synchronously (most notably RuntimeExceptions and Errors) are still propagated via the Future and asynchronous handler. The idea is that this is an implementation detail which is transparent to the application.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    New API has been introduced to allow more customization of the editing functionality in Lightspeed views. In the context of this, the ILspEditor interface has changed considerably. If you have implemented this interface and would like assistance to upgrade to a newer version of LuciadLightspeed, please contact Luciad support.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLspSelectController's default key to enable multi-object selection has been changed to shift instead of ctrl. The default behavior can be modified by overriding TLspSelectController#selectWhat.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The domain objects in the ruler controller model have changed. They are now ALspRulerMeasurement instead of ILspRulerPolyline. The controller now also allows to override distance and azimuth calculation.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    ILspShapeDiscretizer's canDiscretize method has been deprecated. Instead discretizeSFCT should throw a TLspDiscretizationException if it is not capable to discretize the provided shape.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    ILspTerrainSupport: all terrain query methods now have an additional TLspContext argument. This is necessary to allow the methods to be called from a separate thread. The context in that case would be a snapshot of the view's state which is used for the terrain query, while the view's actual state might be changed by the main thread.

    The impact of this change should be minimal, since the methods in question are primarily used internally by painters.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    Camera constraints: replaced ALspCameraConstraint2D and ALspCameraConstraint3D by a generic ALspCameraConstraint class. Also the constrainXxxParameters method was replaced by a more general constrain method. Also removed ConstraintChangeListener interfaces and replaced them with ILcdChangeListener.

    ALspViewXYZWorldTransformations are now constructed for a specific view. As a consequence, the registerView(ILspView) and unregisterView(ILspView) methods were removed. TLspViewXYZWorldTransformation2D and TLspViewXYZWorldTransformation3D constructors now have an ILspView as argument.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The various calls to retrieve bounds and touch information from a layer or painter about objects on the screen has changed. They have been replaced by a single ILspInteractivePaintableLayer.query() method that accepts various query objects and returns the relevant information.

    In particular, the following calls have been removed:

    1. ILspInteractivePaintableLayer.queryOnViewBounds
    2. ILspInteractivePaintableLayer.queryTouched
    3. ILspInteractivePaintableLayer.isTouched
    4. TLspLayer.applyOnInteract
    5. ILspPainter.queryOnViewBounds
    6. ILspPainter.queryTouched
    7. ILspPainter.isTouched
    8. ILspPainter.boundsSFCT
    9. ILspLabelPainter.isLabelTouched
    10. ILspLabelPainter.labelBoundsSFCT

    Although you can still query painters directly, it is advised to query the layer instead. You can replace the removed calls above with these query() calls on ILspInteractivePaintableLayer:

    1. query(new TLspPaintedObjectsBoundsQuery(REGULAR_BODY, viewBounds, 10))
    2. query(new TLspPaintedObjectsTouchQuery(REGULAR_BODY, viewPoint, 10))
    3. query(new TLspIsTouchedQuery(object, REGULAR_BODY, viewPoint, 10))
    4. query(new TLspPaintedObjectsQuery(REGULAR_BODY, viewBounds))
    5. query(new TLspPaintedObjectsBoundsQuery(REGULAR_BODY, viewBounds, 10)) (same as #1)
    6. query(new TLspPaintedObjectsTouchQuery(REGULAR_BODY, viewPoint, 10)) (same as #2)
    7. query(new TLspIsTouchedQuery(object, REGULAR_BODY, viewPoint, 10)) (same as #3)
    8. query(new TLspBoundsQuery(object, REGULAR_BODY))
    9. query(new TLspIsTouchedQuery(label, viewPoint, 10)) (similar to #3)
    10. query(new TLspBoundsQuery(label)) (similar to #8)

    The new query method also uses the ALspBoundsInfo and ALspTouchInfo classes as possible return types, with some minor modifications:

    1. ALspWorldBoundsInfo#isGeometryDraped has been removed as there was no clear use case.
    2. ALspWorldTouchInfo#isGeometryDraped has been replaced with getElevationMode. This allows us to return more information about the position of the touched geometry.

    ALspActionController, TLspClickActionController and TLspKeyActionController constructors don't accept an ILcdFilter for AWT events anymore. Instead, use the setAWTFilter method of ALspController.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The label location hierarchy was simplified and made more flexible. This has an impact on the location classes and label painter hierarchy.

    TLspFreeLabelLocation was removed, use TLspStampLabelLocation as a replacement, which is more powerful.

    ILspFreeLocationLabelPainter interface was removed. The API of ILspStampLocationLabelPainter was changed to aid algorithms.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    ILspLabelPlacer is now tied specifically to one view. This means that its placeLabels() method does not accept a view anymore, and that it only contains label locations for objects in one view.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The API of ALspLabelLocations was simplified. Instead of the various applyOn() methods there is one getLabelLocations() and one getLabelLocation() method.

    Related, TLspLabelLocationVisibilityChangedEvent was merged into TLspLabelLocationChangedEvent. Instead of the processChangedLocations() and isLabelLocationChanged() methods, there now is only a simple getChanges() method.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The ILspPaintGroupsChangeListener interface has been changed to support better control over the event processing. This allows for example to make sure that updates to the body and label of objects are visible at the same time. All ILspPainter's must now also implement this interface.

    To convert an implementation of the old interface you can perform all work previously done in the paintGroupsChanged method in the prepareChanges method and invoke the changesReady method on the callback immediately if it is not null.

    To convert a painter that previously did not implement ILspPaintGroupsChangeListener you should at least invoke the changesReady method on the callback argument passed in the prepareChanges method if it is not null.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The method ILcdOGCFilterEvaluator#buildFilter, used to create a filter evaluator for a given OGC Filter, now returns an ILcdDynamicFilter instead of an ILcdFilter. This has been done for optimal interoperability when using these filter evaluators on GXY, GL and LSP layers.

    Applications that use this method will not be affected, since ILcdDynamicFilter is an extension of ILcdFilter. The change only affects applications that define a custom implementation of ILcdOGCFilterEvaluator or an extension of its default implementation TLcdOGCFilterEvaluator. If this is the case, the new methods introduced by ILcdDynamicFilter, i.e. addChangeListener and addChangeListener), can be given an empty implementation, since dynamic changes to the filter are not supported.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLspGXYLayerAdapter no longer allows to set an ILcdFilter on the inner GXY layer. Only ILcdDynamicFilter instances are allowed. Exceptions will be thrown at runtime when an incorrect filter is set on the inner layer.

    To convert an ILcdFilter to an ILcdDynamicFilter you can make use of the TLcdChangeSupport class. This class makes it easy to implement ILcdChangeSource.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The signature of the methods getTile, putTile and deleteTile on ALfnCoverage has changed:
    • getTile and putTile now take an additional ByteBuffer parameter which can be used to retrieve/provide a signature for the tile. Existing applications or applications which are not interested in the signature may provide a null argument.
    • the level, row and column parameters have been replaced by a single TLfnTileCoordinates parameter. A TLfnTileCoordinates instance can easily be created via its getInstance() factory method, given the level, row and column arguments.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The Fusion protocol now also supports text geometry. Objects with ILcdText geometry can now be fused to vector coverages, and displayed accordingly in Fusion clients. The vector tile data format used by the Fusion protocol has been updated to allow modelling of text geometry; old clients will no longer be able to read data which has been fused with a new Fusion engine supporting text geometry. New Fusion engines can still fuse to the old tile data format, by setting the appropriate codec version number on the coverage metadata.

    Upgrade considerationDefense Symbology

    The interfaces ILcdMS2525bCoded and ILcdAPP6ACoded are each extended with a method to retrieve the symbology standard in use:
    • ILcdMS2525bCoded#getMS2525Standard(): returns an ELcdMS2525Standard instance, representing either MIL-STD 2525b or MIL-STD 2525c,
    • ILcdAPP6ACoded#getAPP6AStandard(): returns an ELcdAPP6Standard instance, representing either APP-6A or APP-6B.

    The capability to choose the symbology standard per object was already supported in the domain object implementations TLcdEditableMS2525bObject and TLcdEditableAPP6AObject (see LCD-449); as of now, this capability is thus also integrated in the core object interfaces ILcdMS2525bCoded and ILcdAPP6ACoded.

    This change only affects applications that define a custom implementation of ILcdMS2525bCoded or ILcdAPP6ACoded. In the most likely use case where this custom implementation is a wrapper around the domain objects TLcdEditableMS2525bObject or TLcdEditableAPP6AObject, the new methods can just be delegated to these objects. If a custom implementation is written separate from TLcdEditableMS2525bObject or TLcdEditableAPP6AObject, the implementation needs to implement these new methods by returning the symbology standard that is meant to be used: ELcdAPP6Standard#APP_6A or ELcdAPP6Standard#APP_6B for respectively APP-6A or APP-6B, and ELcdMS2525Standard#MIL_STD_2525b or ELcdMS2525Standard#MIL_STD_2525c for respectively MIL-STD 2525b or MIL-STD 2525c.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LuciadFusion is extended with support for AIXM data, which can be fused into raster coverages (rasterization).

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The Fusion server now supports the OGC WCS protocol; Fusion raster coverages can now be accessed from any client using the WCS protocol. A new package, com.luciad.fusion.server.wcs, provides the necessary API classes for plugging in a WCS service into the Fusion servlet. The main entry points, TLfnWCSRequestDispatcherFactory and TLfnWCSCommandDispatcherFactory, offer additional API hooks for customizing the WCS behavior.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The Fusion server now supports the OGC WFS protocol; Fusion vector coverages can now be accessed from any client using the WFS protocol. A new package, com.luciad.fusion.server.wfs, provides the necessary API classes for plugging in a WFS service into the Fusion servlet. The main entry points, TLfnWFSRequestDispatcherFactory and TLfnWFSCommandDispatcherFactory, offer additional API hooks for customizing the WFS behavior.

    The fusion engine is now supports raster and elevation coverages as input assets for new coverages. This feature can be used to create a cropped copy of an existing coverage. This use case is illustrated in the samples.fusion.engine.coveragecropper sample.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Performance has been improved for transforming bounds with zero width or height.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Action listeners can now be registered to the TLcdBusyLayerTreeNodeCellRenderer class. Registered listeners are notified at regular intervals whenever a layer is busy in the background.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The Fusion protocol now also supports per-tile signatures, allowing a coverage to be checked for consistency on server side. The binary Tile Store format used by the server has been updated to allow storing an optional signature per tile. The signature is defined by a message digest algorithm on the coverage metadata. New servers can read both old and new formats, and will continue to use the old format for existing coverages. They will use the new format only for new coverages that explicitly have a message digest algorithm set. Old servers will not be able to load coverages in this new format.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The sample samples.rotation has been replaced with the more general samples.gxy.editmodes sample. It shows how to add extra ways to edit an object, by rotation for example, by adding context-dependent handles and editing behavior.

    TLcyHelpAddOn has been introduced. This add-on provides some more help options for the end-user of LuciadFusion. It provides a menu entry to open the Lucy end-user guide with the default PDF viewer of your computer.

    ImprovementReal-time Engine

    TLcdSimulator now supports simulations in both GXY and Lightspeed views. For using TLcdSimulator in combination with a Lightspeed view. The following methods were added:
    • get/setLspLayerFactory: For retrieving/setting the Lightspeed layer factory that creates the simulation layers for the Lightspeed view(s)
    • getLspView: For retrieving the Lightspeed views set on the simulator
    • add/removeView: For adding/removing ILcdViews on which the simulator should display the simulation
    • getSimulationLspLayers: For retreiving all simulation layers pertaining to a given Lightspeed view
    • is/setPlayInLoop: For checking/setting whether the simulator should play the simulation in a loop

    ImprovementTerrain Analysis Engine

    Added the com.luciad.tea.lightspeed.hypsometry package. This package contains various classes to perform hardware accelerated hypsometry calculations for increased performance. The package also contains Lightspeed painters for the hypsometry calculations, so the hypsometric functions can be viewed in the new Lightspeed views.

    ImprovementTerrain Analysis Engine

    Added com.luciad.tea.lightspeed.los package. This package contains various classes to perform hardware accelerated LOS calculations for increased performance. The com.luciad.tea.lightspeed.los.view package has been added to be able to paint LOS calculations (including LOS calculations based on older implementations) in new Lightspeed views.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    To easily enable a halo for symbols and their labels, a set of halo properties have been added to the style interfaces ILcdMS2525bStyle and ILcdAPP6AStyle:
    • haloEnabled: enables/disables a halo for a symbol (both icons and line symbols),
    • haloColor: configures the color of the symbol's halo,
    • haloThickness: configures the thickness of the symbol's halo,
    • labelHaloEnabled: enables/disables a halo for the labels of a symbol,
    • labelHaloColor: configures the color of the label's halo,
    • labelHaloThickness: configures the thickness of the label's halo.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b object customizer classes TLcdAPP6AObjectCustomizer and TLcdMS2525bObjectCustomizer have been extended with the ability to enable a symbol filter that only allows to use point-based symbology.

    The fusion engine ALfnEngine is now fully asynchronous. The signature and semantics of its methods have changed to reflect this new paradigm.

    A quick way to change existing code is this:
    • Replace all old occurrences of ALfnEngine.fuse() withALfnEngine.fuse(new MyEmptyFusionHandler()).get(), where MyEmptyFusionHandler has empty implementations for all methods.
    • Add a catch ExecutionException and get its cause.
    • Replace old occurrences of ALfnEngine.getProgressNonBlocking() withALfnEngine.getProgress(), which has now become non-blocking.
    • Reevaluate old occurrences ofALfnEngine.getProgress(). The old behavior was blocking, but the new behavior is non-blocking. In case the blocking behavior is irrelevant for your use case, you can just leave it. In case the blocking behavior is relevant for your use case, for example because you want to wait until the progress has been initialized, replace it with ALfnEngine.getInitialProgress().get() .
    • The blocking call void fuse() has been replaced with a non-blocking counterpartFuture<?> fuse(ILfnFusionHandler). Instead of receiving the exceptions synchronously, they can now be received either by listening for them on a handler or by inspecting the ExecutionException when blocking for the result withFuture.get().
    • Replace all old occurrences of ALfnEngine.stop() withFuture.cancel(). This means you need to hold onto the future returned by an earlier call toALfnEngine.fuse(ILfnFusionHandler).

    Luciad's abstract OpenGL binding, which is used by ILcdGLView to provide access to the OpenGL API, is now available directly in LuciadLightspeed. The binding is also used by the new Lightspeed view implementations (ILspView).

    Only one concrete OpenGL binding is now shipped with LuciadLightspeed: JOGL version 2.x. Previous implementations, based on GL4Java and older versions of JOGL, are no longer included with the release. Applications that forced the use of a particular binding via the system property "com.luciad.view.opengl.binding.ALcdGLBinding" should now be forced to use the JOGL 2.x binding. Normally, this should not pose any problems, however.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The class ILfnVectorSessionHandler.FailureContext has been made abstract, its constructor has been removed. Users of the API should never instantiate this class. The methods getLevel(), getRow() and getColumn() have been replaced by getTileCoordinates(); the level, row and column information can still be accessed in the returned TLfnTileCoordinates object.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The functionality previously offered by the 'Earth' Additional Component is now available directly in LuciadLightspeed. This Additional Component provides support for preprocessing raster and elevation data into a 3D terrain database, as well as painters and other tools to work with such terrain databases.

    The functionality is still contained inside a separate jar lcd_earth.jar, but this jar is shipped inside the LuciadLightspeed zip file. The documentation of the Earth component, such as the developer's guide and the release notes, has been integrated into the main documentation.

    The Fusion protocol now also supports text geometry. Objects with ILcdText geometry can now be fused to vector coverages, and displayed accordingly in Fusion clients. The vector tile data format used by the Fusion protocol has been updated to allow modelling of text geometry; old clients will no longer be able to read data which has been fused with a new Fusion engine supporting text geometry. New Fusion engines can still fuse to the old tile data format, by setting the appropriate codec version number on the coverage metadata.

    TLfnScaleUtil has moved from package com.luciad.fusion.engine.vector tocom.luciad.fusion.util. Imports must be adjusted where necessary.

    The default (compilation) scale denominator for a VectorAssetPart is now-1, for which a new constant TLfnScaleUtil.UNKNOWN_SCALE_DENOMINATOR has been defined. Where appropriate, hard-coded values of 0 should be replaced with references to the new constant.

    The signature of the method ALfnTileStore.query() has been changed compared to LuciadFusion V11.0: it no longer declares to throw InterruptedException. Because it is an asynchronous method, InterruptedExceptions are propagated via the ILfnQueryHandler. This has been the behavior since V10.0, so there is no actual change in behavior.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    ILfnVectorSessionHandler: the interface has been modified to support more general failures. More specifically the featureElementFailed method has been renamed to handleFailure and some of the attributes in the context have become optional.

    ILcdLayerTreeNode now allows configuring the position at which layers are inserted by setting an ILcdInitialLayerIndexProvider on the node. See ILcdLayerTreeNode#addLayer.

    • Direct implementations of the ILcdLayerTreeNode interface will no longer compile, requiring the implementation of the ILcdInitialLayerIndexProvider getter and setter.
    • The new methods have been added to TLcdLayerTreeNodeSupport, which is the support class for creating such nodes. If you have created an ILcdLayerTreeNode implementation by delegating to this support class, you can implement these new methods by delegating them to the support class as well.

    The APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b icon classes TLcdAPP6AIcon and TLcdMS2525bIcon now properly paint within the bounding box determined by the icon width and height.

    In the past, this was not the case for icons that had an anchor point different from the center of the icon (e.g., the icon for the Point Of Interest symbol). For those icons, TLcdAPP6AIcon and TLcdMS2525bIcon shifted the painting position according to this anchor point offset. TLcdAPP6AIcon and TLcdMS2525bIcon now no longer perform the anchor point shift by themselves. To determine the correct anchor point, TLcdAPP6AIcon and TLcdMS2525bIcon now implement ILcdAnchoredIcon, which offers the anchorPointSFCT(Point) method for this.

    This change only affects applications that define a custom painter/editor for the icons (for instance, to customize the selection box around the icon) or that directly use the API of the icons (for instance, to save them to a bitmap). For these use cases, the users of the API needed to explicitly take the anchor point shift into account in the past; this information was retrieved through the methods getIconCenterOffsetX() and getIconCenterOffsetY() available in TLcdAPP6AIcon and TLcdMS2525bIcon. In favor of the new ILcdAnchoredIcon approach, getIconCenterOffsetX() and getIconCenterOffsetY() are no longer available in TLcdAPP6AIcon and TLcdMS2525bIcon. Usage of both methods can easily be replaced by usage of the anchorPointSFCT(Point) method: 

          int offsetX = anchoredIcon.getIconCenterOffsetX();
      int offsetY = anchoredIcon.getIconCenterOffsetY();
    becomes 
          Point anchorPoint = new Point();
      anchoredIcon.anchorPointSFCT( p );
      offsetX = ( anchoredIcon.getWidth() / 2 ) - anchorPoint.x;
      offsetY = ( anchoredIcon.getHeight() / 2 ) - anchorPoint.y;

    The new packages com.luciad.format.gmlcommon.transformation, com.luciad.format.gml2.transformation, com.luciad.format.gml31.transformation and com.luciad.format.gml32.transformation introduce a new API that supports the transformation of a data model from and to GML. This API makes it possible to easily encode and decode a model as (from) GML. The sample samples.transformation.gml shows how this API works in practice.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The new com.luciad.datamodel.transformation package introduces an API to support data transformations between different data models. Data transformations can be made invertible to support bidirectional conversions from source to target and back.

    LMAP-2671, LMAP-3554

    A new controller for interactive labels has been added: TLcdGXYInteractiveLabelsController. This new implementation replaces the existing interactive label functionality in the label painters. The new approach allows wrapping label painters, and can also be used for offset icons. The labels.interactive sample was adjusted to reflect these changes.

    Note : when switching to the new interactive labels implementation, it is important that every ALcdGXYInteractiveLabelProvider implementation fires the correct events. See ALcdGXYInteractiveLabelProvider.addLabelInteractionListener(), ALcdGXYInteractiveLabelProvider.fireInteractionStartedEvent() ALcdGXYInteractiveLabelProvider.fireInteractionStoppedEvent() and ALcdGXYInteractiveLabelProvider.fireInteractionCancelledEvent().

    LMAP-4386
    TLcdSphereUtil#closestDistanceToGeodesic() was added. This method makes it possible to calculate the closest distance between a point and either the complete geodetic or a geodetic line segment. This method works very similar to TLcdSphereUtil#closestPointOnGeodesic(), but it is more efficient because it does not need to calculate the closest point.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Previously for updating an Earth tile you needed to have all data of this tile. However often you an implementation only needs some metadata (ex. a time stamp) to check if there is a new version available. For this purpose an ALcdEarthTile can now return a minimal version of itself. This allows implementing tile updating without keeping the tile data in memory. The existing implementation were updated to support this. In practice this means that the Earth painters require less memory.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4968
    TLcdGXYBoundsPainter, TLcdGXYArcPainter, TLcdGXYArcBandPainter, TLcdGXYCircleBy3PointsPainter and TLcdGXYEllipsePainter now also implement ILcdGXYPathPainter.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The WFS server now supports additional GML output formats to export data using the GML simple features profile. This allows servers to either export as simple features by default, or otherwise to expose the additional output formats so they are available to clients.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYLayer.paint() now uses ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer.applyOnInteract() and ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer.applyOnInteractLabels() internally. This makes it possible to customize the painting behavior by modifying the result of these methods.

    The TLcdWCSClient will now try to detect GeoTiff encoded elevation data automatically. This allows elevation data to be properly used even if the server configuration fails to correctly describe the data.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYPointListPainter now avoids painting lines that are completely outside the view. This improves the painting speed in some cases, for example when zoomed in on a map containing many polylines.

    On Windows, occasional failure to delete a temporary checkpoint file is expected due to file locking.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    LuciadFusion is extended with support for rasterizing vector data into raster coverages. The rasterization relies on a layer factory that should be available for the vector format.

    The Data Connectivity Manager provides built-in support for rasterizing any vector data format for which a layer factory is registered.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    LuciadFusion now adds support to fuse and and distribute raster data representing values other than image and elevation. For instance, meteorological raster data defining temperature or wind speed. To support this use case, a new 'multivalued' coverage type is introduced. Additionally, support for the GRIB weather data format (V1, V2, bulletins) is added, as a primary use case for the new coverage type.

    The Data Connectivity Manager is extended with support for the new coverage type and the GRIB data format.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    LuciadFusion is extended with support for vector data, enabling users to use very large vector data sets in applications. By applying tiling and the use of multiple levels of details, LuciadFusion allows to fuse vector data sources into a vector coverage, ready for high performance data streaming, visualization and analysis.

    To support the vector data use case, the Data Connectivity Manager offers the necessary GUI components to fuse and process vector data, and to manage a LuciadFusion Tile Store. Users can import vector data sources and fuse them into vector coverages. Through the user interface, fine-grained control is offered over the simplification approach applied by the Fusion Engine.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    Data Connectivity Manager now has functionality to visualize the extents of the assets and/or coverages in the tile store on a map.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    The drag and drop of a theme to a map (2D/3D view) now creates all the layers corresponding to the coverages contained in the theme; this feature replaces the previous extent layer creation, which was just representing the theme bounds.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    The Data Connectivity Manager now loads the proxy addon that allows the user to configure http proxy settings.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    Applying clipping shapes to assets is now more intuitive. Only selected objects (possibly from different layers) are used as a clipping shape. A new clipping shape overrides an existing one.

    ImprovementData Connectivity Manager

    The names of cloned resources are now more intuitive.

    ImprovementAdvanced GIS Engine

    The standard implementations of ILcd2DAdvancedBinaryTopology now also support ILcdBounds, ILcdArcBand, and ILcdGeoBuffer instances. Support for polylines, polygons and complex polygons with rhumbline properties has been added to TLcdEllipsoidalAdvancedBinaryTopology and TLcdSphericalAdvancedBinaryTopology.

    ImprovementDatabase Connectors

    The sample configurations now specify connection timeouts.

    ImprovementDatabase Connectors

    Models created by the TLcdOracleSpatialModelDecoder are now dataobject enabled. This means that all model elements implement ILcdDataObject and that the model's model descriptor implements ILcdDataModelDescriptor.

    ImprovementAviation Standards

    All SLD's used with AIXM 5.x should now be specified relative to the feature instead of the time slice. This makes it possible to define time based styles.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    S-57 features without geometry are now included in the S-57 model's elements() method.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    A new class, TLcdS52DisplaySettings is introduced. This class collects all S-52 rendering settings that were previously scattered over multiple S-52 components. All relevant S-52 components (symbologies, painter providers, ...) now take a TLcdS52DisplaySettings as a constructor argument. Components processing the same S-57 model or sharing the same rendering configuration should use the same TLcdS52DisplaySettings instance. It is advised to perform all S-52 rendering configuration on the central TLcdS52DisplaySettings instance, rather than using the existing methods on the individual components.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    LMAP-2019
    Two new classes were introduced for easier setup of an ECDIS environment: TLcdS57ProductConfiguration and TLcdS52ProductConfiguration. They allow to instantiate S-57 and S-52 components (decoders, painter providers, ...) with a single method call, hiding all the configuration details for the user of the API. These classes provide out-of-the-box support for the ENC and AML product types. Unless another S-57 product is used, users no longer need to perform S-57/S-52 component configuration manually.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    The properties of S-57 domain object can now be edited.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    Several performance improvements have been done in the S-52 rendering library. TLcdS52GXYCatalogueLayerList and TLcdS52GXYLevelLayerList have been deprecated, as they are more difficult to use and their performance is signficantly lower than that of TLcdS52GXYCatalogueLayer.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    A new class, TLcdS57Preprocessor, is available in the API. This class prepares S-57 models to be used with S-52: it precomputes a set of characteristics which are expensive to compute on-the-fly during painting, and stores them on the domain objects.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    The public API of S-57 has been extended to cover the full domain model. Nodes, edges and faces are now also available through the API. With the extended API, it is now possible to construct a fully functional S-57 model outside the S-57 decoders.

    ImprovementS-63

    TLcdS63ProductConfiguration is a new API class, allowing easy setup of an ECDIS/S-63 environment. It provides out-of-the-box support for the ENC and AML product types. Unless another S-57 product is used, users no longer need to perform S-57/S-52/S-63 component configuration manually (except for the S-63 permit data).

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    AssetPart has been renamed to RasterAssetPart for a better symmetry with VectorAssetPart. Constants in TLfnQuery have been renamed accordingly. References to TLfnQuery#ASSET_location and TLfnQuery#ASSET_boundingBox can be replaced with TLfnQuery#RASTER_ASSET_location and TLfnQuery#RASTER_ASSET_boundingBox respectively. Queries using the properties "lts:AssetPart/lts:Location/@link:href" and "lts:AssetPart/lts:BoundingBox" should be updated to "lts:RasterAssetPart/lts:Location/@link:href" and "lts:RasterAssetPart/lts:BoundingBox" respectively, matching a raster asset part specifically.

    The Luciad Tile Service (LTS) protocol version has been incremented to1.0.1. Both client and server remain fully backwards compatible, there should be no impact on the client applications.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The Luciad Tile Service (LTS) protocol supported by the LuciadFusion Data Server has been changed compared to LuciadFusion V10.0. The old protocol will no longer be supported, requiring applications that use LuciadMap Fusion Client V11.0 to update the LuciadFusion Data Server to V11.0 accordingly.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The methods TLfnCompositeFormat.canCreateGXYLayer() and TLfnCompositeFormat.canCreateHeightProvider() have been removed. Instead, use ALfnAssetMetadata.getSupportedCoverageTypes(), and check if the result contains ELfnDataType.IMAGE or ELfnDataType.ELEVATION.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The signature of the constructor in TLfnTileStoreModelDescriptor has been slightly changed: the URI parameter has been replaced by an ALfnTileStore parameter. A TLfnTileStoreModelDescriptor instance is normally constructed automatically in TLfnTileStoreModelDecoder. Implementations that manually instantiated this class should now supply the ALfnTileStore parameter, which can be retrieved through a TLfnLTSClient (in the case of LuciadFusion Data Server connection) or through a TLfnFileSystemTileStore (in the case of a local file system Tile Store).

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The class TLfnWMSRequestDispatcherFactory previously available in com.luciad.fusion.server has been moved to a newly introduced package com.luciad.fusion.server.wms, which groups classes specific to the support of the OGC Web Map Service protocol. Implementations that relied on this class can simply use the new import location.

    The interfaces and classes ILfnTransport, TLfnRequest and TLfnResponse in com.luciad.fusion.client.transport and the class TLfnHttpAccessPoint in com.luciad.fusion.common.TLfnHttpAccessPoint have been moved to com.luciad.io.transport and renamed to respectively ILcdTransport, TLcdTransportRequest, TLcdTransportResponse and TLcdTransportAccessPoint. Implementations that relied on these interfaces or classes can simply use the new name and import location.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The TLfnRasterAssetMetadata has been changed to support more complex assets. Concretely the pixel density property has been moved to the RasterAssetParts. This change allows modeling file formats that can contain data at multiple locations and multiple levels of detail (ex. CADRG TOC file and ECDIS catalog file) as a single asset. Modeling these with a single asset is desired because an asset should conceptually be a logical group of data. The method TLfnRasterAssetMetadata#getPixelDensity still exists, but now takes the maximum of the pixel densities of the underlying RasterAssetParts.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLfnEngineFactory: the engine factory now uses builder classes instead of builder methods for creating engine sessions. This allows for introducing additional parameters without breaking existing code and is also more convenient for optional parameters in general.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcdLonLatGridPainter can now make use of any ILcdLonLatFormatter instead of a TLcdLonLatFormatter. Users of the getLonLatFormatter method may have to add an extra instanceof operation and cast to make their projects compile again.

    A new icon set is now being used in all of LuciadMap, Lucy, and all Industry Specific and Additional Components. The icons can easily be reverted to the old icons by adding lib/legacy/legacy_icons.jar to the classpath, before luciadmap.jar. Because the icons use a more advanced format now (PNG), and because all icons have now been consolidated in the LuciadMap.jar file, the file paths have been changed. If you are using TLcdGUIIcon or TLcdShapeIcon, you will automatically use the new icons. If you use the old icon filenames in your own code, it will be necessary to change them to the new file names. To make this easier, the file lib/legacy/legacy_icons.jar contains a mapping (icon_mapping.csv) from the old icon names to the newly used icon names.

    The constant TLfnClientFactory#TRANSPORT_TYPE_APACHE_HTTP_CLIENT_401 has been renamed to TRANSPORT_TYPE_DEFAULT, to avoid explicit versions of third-party libraries in the API. Implementations that used this constant can simply replace it with the new name.

    The Data Connectivity Manager add-on infrastructure has been refactored to offer an API to the user, giving the possibility to create extensions and make customizations. The existing add-ons TLfnTileStoreAddOn and TLfnTileStoreOpenGLAddOn have been replaced by several new add-ons available in com.luciad.fusion.manager.addons:
    • com.luciad.fusion.manager.addons.engine.TLfnFusionEngineAddOn
    • com.luciad.fusion.manager.addons.tilestore.TLfnTileStoreAddOn

    • com.luciad.fusion.manager.addons.metadataeditor.TLfnMetadataEditorAddOn
    • com.luciad.fusion.manager.addons.dataimporter.TLfnDataImporterAddOn
    This means that any addons.xml file that used to contain TLfnTileStoreAddOn and TLfnTileStoreOpenGLAddOn have to be replaced by the new add-on configuration.

    Existing workspaces will need to be created again to store the Fusion-specific items (Tile Store connections, layers, jobs, ...) according to the new add-on configuration.

    A new interface for the creation of a layer-based ILcdHeightProvider has been added: ILcdLayerHeightProviderFactory. This interface is similar to the exiting model-based factory: ILcdModelHeightProviderFactory. The difference is that the new interface creates a height provider from a layer and view instead of a model. A layer-based height provider returns heights that are in sync with the layer and view, with the correct level-of-detail for example. Using it often it is likely that the necessary data is cached.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Added a new layer-based height provider factory. Opposed to the existing model-based height provider factory (e.g. TLcdEarthHeightProviderFactory), the new TLcdEarthGXYLayerHeightProviderFactory and TLcdEarthGLLayerHeightProviderFactory always return heights that are in sync with the data being painted in a view. THey also provides better performance as all required tile data is already cached in memory. The earth.opengl.aboveterrain sample demonstrates this new functionality.

    The TLcdGXYEditController2 contains support to make the labels of specified layers sticky when the mouse hovers above them. To enable this behavior use the method setStickyLabelsLayerFilter. The sticky labels behavior will be enabled for all layers that pass this filter. When no filter is set, no labels will be made sticky. The TLcdGXYEditController2 and the TLcdGXYTouchSelectEditController will make labels sticky while they are being instant edited. This is for instance useful when editing continuously decluttered labels for realtime layers.

    The TLcdEarthGLTerrainPainter was updated to support the draping feature, introduced in the LuciadMap 10.1 3D module. This feature allows to paint any GL layer on top of an Earth terrain, without rendering artifacts such as flickering due to z-fighting. The earth.opengl.draping sample demonstrates draping some vector data on top of an Earth terrain. Refer to the Earth and 3D Developer's Guides for more information.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYLabelPainterAdapter was added. This class adapts an ILcdGXYPainter into an ILcdGXYLabelPainter2. It uses a set of fixed label positions to position the label, and also offers the possibility to place a pin. This class also implement ILcdGXYLabelEditor, and can be used to edit labels if an ILcdGXYEditor was specified next to an ILcdGXYPainter. This class can for example be used to paint icons as labels.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A composite ILcdGXYLabelPainter implementation was added : TLcdGXYCompositeLabelPainter. This class can be used combine multiple label painters into one. This class specifies two ways to remap the label and sub-label index.
    • Shift label index : Only the label index is shifted.
    • Shift sub-label index : All indices of labels and sub-labels from the first label painter stay exactly the same. For all other labels, the sub-label index is shifted.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    All LuciadMap implementations of ILcdGXYLabelPainter now provide support for parent labels. This means that when a label location specifies an other anchor point, its coordinates are specified relative to this anchor point, see TLcdLabelLocation#getAnchorPoint(). When this method returns false, the anchor point is created like it was before. In order to make sure that TLcdLabelLocation#getAnchorPoint() returns the correct anchor point, code that alters the label locations should set the parent bounds by using TLcdLabelLocation#setParentBounds().

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A sample was added to demonstrate the creation and usage of labeling algorithms and labeling algorithm wrappers : labels.createalgorithm. It demonstrates how to create a simple labeling algorithm, how to create a wrapper that rotates the labels, how to create a wrapper that tries more possible placements, and a wrapper that tries to adjust the font size to find a suitable label location.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdLabelLocation now has a few extra methods :
    • getAnchorPoint() : When this method returns true, the location of this label is defined relative to this anchor point. When this method returns false, the user of the label location should compute an anchor point.
    • getParentLabel() : When this method returns a non-null object, the label location depends on the returned label. This means that the location of this label is defined with respect to the parent label. When creating or editing a label, one should always make sure that this dependency is respected, and that the location is defined relative to the parent label (getAnchorPoint()). For this it is also necessary to set the bounds of the parent label (setParentBounds()).
    • getParentBoundsRectangle(), getParentBoundsRotation(), setParentBounds() : When a TLcdLabelLocation has a parent label, the parent bounds should be set before using it.
    • isBodyLabel() : When this method returns true, it means that this label is used as a representation of its domain object.

    TLcdLabelLocations now has a new constructor which takes an ILcdLabelDependencyProvider as argument. When this constructor is used, a parent label is set on the TLcdLabelLocation when calling TLcdLabelLocations#getLabelLocationSFCT(). So the parent dependencies of a label can be specified using the label dependency provider.

    This functionality is demonstrated in the labels.offset sample.

    New API has been added for advanced label placement, based on an ILcdGXYLabelingAlgorithm. Algorithms can be combined and wrapped. TLcdGXYLabelPlacer and TLcdGXYAsynchronousLabelPlacer provide the necessary boiler plate code to place a labeling algorithm's labels synchronously and asynchronously, respectively. For more information, see the com.luciad.view.gxy.labeling package, the developer's guide, and the label samples.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Extensive support was added throughout LuciadMap for ILcdDataObject. In particular, the following enhancements were made:
    • The models of all vector formats (SHP, GML, ISO metadata, database format, MAP, MIF, SVG, POL, Magnetic North, MTM) are now data object enabled. This means that the model elements are ILcdDataObject instances and the model's descriptor is aILcdDataModelDescriptor. Most of these formats also allow direct access to their data model through a public TLcd<format>DataTypes class, for example TLcdSHPDataTypes orTLcdSVGDataTypes. Encoders that can export models from other formats to their own format have been enhanced such that they also accept data object enabled models. Since the model descriptors of these formats now implement ILcdDataModelDescriptor, all elements in these models are required to implement ILcdDataObject. Custom domain objects wrapping any of these model elements will need to implement ILcdDataObject as well, if they are contained in a model with a model descriptor of any of these formats.
    • TLcdGXYDataObjectLabelPainter, TLcdGXYDataObjectPolylineLabelPainter and TLcdGXYDataObjectPolygonLabelPainter support painting of labels for data object enabled models. These label painters can be easily configured using a data object expression language (more information on this can be found in the javadoc of ALcdDataObjectExpressionLanguage)).
    • The class TLcdDataObjectShapeList is introduced as an implementation of both ILcdShapeList and ILcdDataObject.
    • A number of new annotations are added to describe additional properties of the data model. The TLcdPrimaryKeyAnnotation can be added to a type (typically in the context of a database) to indicate what its primary key property is. TheTLcdHasAShapeAnnotation, TLcdShapeAnnotation and TLcdShapeListAnnotation can be used to better describe the geometry that is contained within a type.
    • Various smaller changes are implemented to ensure that a model that is data object enabled is supported at least as much as a model that relies on ILcdFeatured.
    Also, all sample code has been updated to use ILcdDataObject (in stead of ILcdFeatured). More information about ILcdDataObject can be found in the LuciadMap Developer's Guide.

    Two new contour finders are added, TLcdPolylineContourFinder and TLcdComplexPolygonContourFinder. The original TLcdContourFinder could find closed contours. TLcdPolylineContourFinder can find both open and closed isolines. TLcdComplexPolygonContourFinder can find areas of height ranges on the terrain as complex polygons, supporting holes and translucent rendering. The new contour finders use ILcdContourBuilder to create shapes from the contour data, with implementations TLcdLonLatPolylineContourBuilder, TLcdXYPolylineContourBuilder, TLcdLonLatComplexPolygonContourBuilder and TLcdXYComplexPolygonContourBuilder. These implementations return the shape as TLcdValuedContour and TLcdIntervalContour instances.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4325
    The default custom entity resolver on TLcdXMLSchemaBasedMapping is now allowed to return null for schema's that it can't resolve. The default implementation can now handle such cases. This makes it much easier to set a custom entity resolver because it only needs to handle the schema's that it knows about. TLcdXMLSchemaBasedMapping is now also ILcdInputStreamCapable for this reason. The TLcdXMLDataObjectSchemaHandler now also uses the default entity resolver of the decoder's mapping to resolve extension schema's.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdXMLSchemaBasedUnmarshallerProvider now allows registration of unmarshallers for a given schema element id and java class. Similar functionality is also added to TLcdXMLSchemaBasedMarshallerProvider.

    A new concept has been introduced to make it easier to retrieve a useful time slice from an AIXM feature. Quite often, application developers are confronted with the problem of having to determine a suitable time slice for the visualization of features or properties of features. The new ILcdTimeSliceProvider interface can be used to encapsulate such a strategy that can be used throughout the application.

    To make the provider accessible at places where it is needed, two options are provided:

    • A default time slice provider can be set on an AIXM 5.0 or 5.1 feature. This provider can be requested from the feature whenever it is needed.
    • A time slice provider can be passed onto the objects that need it; for instance, all AIXM painters and XPath factories can now be configured with a time slice provider. When set, these time slice providers have precedence over the default time slice providers on the features.

    Two implementations are available that implement the currently most common strategies. The first one returns one of the time slices in the list of time slices in the feature - normally this will be a baseline time slice, assuming that it is available. The second one can be configured with a date, and will return a snapshot time slice valid for that date, or no time slice if the feature does not have valid time slices for that date.

    ImprovementAviation Standards

    It is now possible to configure the styling of AIXM 5.0 and 5.1 features on the painter providers TLcdAIXM5PainterEditorProvider and TLcdAIXM51PainterEditorProvider. The styling has to be defined as an OGC SLD feature type style. SLD is a very powerful rule-based styling mechanism developed by the OGC, and is defined as an XML format. LuciadMap already provided extensive support for OGC SLD, but it is now also fully integrated with AIXM to style features.

    The AIXM painters not only allow setting a style but also allow access to predefined styles. This makes it easier for application developers to allow style customization, as they can allow their users to customize an existing style instead of having to write one from scratch.

    Data types for the DAFIF and DAFIFT domain model objects are now available in the TLcdDAFIFDataTypes and TLcdDAFIFTDataTypes classes. For each DAFIF/DAFIFT type, a specific class that contains all properties has also been added (e.g., TLcdDAFIFAirspaceDataProperties). DAFIF model decoders with a default configuration will now return objects that implement ILcdDataObject and that have a DAFIF data type.

    Existing users of the DAFIF/DAFIFT decoders that depend on specific properties of the ILcdFeatured-based implementation can ensure backwards compatibility by setting a custom implementation of the now deprecated ALcdAISObjectFactory on the handlers. An example would be to set a very basic extension of the TLcdAISLonLatHeightObjectFactory on all decoders. This will result in objects with an unknown data type that should only be accessed through the ILcdFeatured interface.

    This backwards compatible mode is not recommended for general use, but might be necessary for users of certain functionality. The most important example is the use of certain methods on the DAFIF/DAFIFT decoders that allow setting the features to be decoded, such as the method setAerodromeFeaturesToBeDecoded. These methods are still available, but in the new decoder configuration the decoded features will always have the same number of features. Also, the ordering of the features will no longer depend on the ordering of the feature names that are passed to this method. These features will be fixed and determined by the data type. This behavior is not changed if you use the backwards compatible mode described above.

    Added support in both MS2525b/c and APP-6A/B for the new unified ILcdDataObject interface. The data model, data types and data properties can be found in the TLcdMS2525bDataTypes and TLcdAPP6ADataTypes The data model, data types and data properties can be found in the TLcdMS2525bDataTypes and TLcdAPP6ADataTypes classes respectively. Additionally, both the TLcdMS2525bModelDescriptor and the TLcdAPP6AModelDescriptor now implement the ILcdDataModelDescriptor interface.

    Since the MIL-STD 2525b/c and APP-6A/B model descriptors now implement ILcdDataModelDescriptor, all elements in such models are required to implement ILcdDataObject. Custom domain objects wrapping the existing MIL-STD 2525b/c and APP-6A/B domain objects will therefore need to implement ILcdDataObject as well, if they are contained in a model with a MIL-STD 2525b/c or APP-6A/B model descriptor.

    Thread-safety of the S-52 rendering engine has been improved. An S-52 symbology instance can now be shared among different conditional symbologies / painter providers on different threads. Conditional symbologies and S-52 painter providers should still be created per thread.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    The performance of the S-52 visualization engine has been improved. Especially the rendering speed of ECDIS data during dragging has been increased significantly. To take fully advantage of these optimizations, applications should replaced existing ECDIS layer list hierarchies (TLcdS52GXYCatalogueLayerList, TLcdS52GXYLevelLayerList) by the new TLcdS52GXYCatalogueLayer class. This class provides similar configuration options as the TLcdS52GXYCatalogueLayerList, with the main difference that it is not a layer list. The EcdisLayerFactory provided with the samples illustrates the usage of this class.

    ELcdGML32NilReasonEnumeration and ELcdGML32TimeUnit have been renamed to use a TLcd prefix and are now also regular classes instead of enumerations. These new classes correspond better with the types that are defined in the GML schema, and the API that uses these types is now also clearer.

    Existing users of these classes can simply use the new ones: TLcdGML32NilReasonEnumeration and TLcdGML32TimeUnit. A method is also available that allows retrieving a constant based on a String and allows iterating over all known values. The change also applies to the corresponding classes in GML 3.1.

    In most cases, this change results in a compilation error. However, this is not the case when the NilReasonEnumeration type is used as part of another union and/or choice. An example of this are for instance the nilReason and envelopeOrNull properties on TLcdGML32BoundedShape. The type of these properties is Object.class because they are a union/choice between TLcdGML32NilReasonEnumeration and another class (URI/Envelope). As such, no compilation errors are generated when a String value would be assigned to these properties. However, exceptions may occur at run-time because the property should not contain a String object.

    The classes TLcdSHPPointM, TLcdSHPPointZ, TLcdSHPPolygonZ and TLcdSHPPolylineZ no longer implement ILcdDataObject.

In case applications require access to the values contained in these geometries, the API exposed by the 4 before mentioned classes should be used.

    In XML, a number of providers (TLcdXMLSchemaBasedMarshallerProvider, TLcdXMLSchemaBasedUnmarshallerProvider, TLcdXMLTypeMarshallerProvider, TLcdXMLTypeUnmarshallerProvider, TLcdXMLTypeObjectFactoryProvider, TLcdXMLMarshallerProvider and TLcdXMLUnmarshallerProvider) have a type unsafe API. These providers have public methods that return an object with a type parameter that is only used in the return value. As a result, the Java compiler's type inference allows callers to specify the type. This is incorrect and can lead to type unsafe code (this is code that compiles correctly but yields ClassCastExceptions at run-time). This unsafe API has been changed to use a wild-card type parameter as return type. This change may result in compilation errors. For type-safe code, these compilation errors can be easily fixed by using appropriate type parameters.

    Take the example ofILcdXMLUnmarshaller. This class has a method public <U, T extends U> ILcdXMLUnmarshaller<T> getUnmarshaller( QName aName, Class<U> aJavaClass ). This signature of this method is changed to public <U> ILcdXMLUnmarshaller<? extends U> getUnmarshaller( QName aName, Class<U> aJavaClass ). Because of this change, the following code no longer compiles, ILcdXMLUnmarshaller<X> m = provider.getUnmarshaller( ..., X.class ); and should be replaced by ILcdXMLUnmarshaller<? extends X> m = provider.getUnmarshaller( ..., X.class );

The old behavior can be accomplished easily by wrapping the TLcdDatabaseModelDecoder and manually replacing the reference of the decoded model with your model reference of choice (cast to ALcdModel and use setModelReference).

    ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer now defines two new applyOnInteract() methods which take a paint mode as argument. One of these methods can be used to query domain objects, the other method can be used to query labels. These methods encapsulate the logic used to decide which objects and labels are painted by the layer. Hence, they take into account the labeled, scaleRange and labelScaleRange properties. For TLcdGXYLayer, the methods also use the selectionLabeled and filter properties for example. So these methods remove the need to do these checks externally, improving the encapsulation of the paint/applyOnInteract behavior of the layer.

    To see how these methods can be used to adjust the label painting behavior, see the labels.offset sample. In this sample, a distinction is made between labels representing bodies, and text labels. 'Body labels' are painted together with the bodies, and 'text labels' are painted on top later.

    This incompatible change impacts all user implementations of ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer. In that case a compile error is triggered. This compile error can be solved by implementing the two methods. For wrappers, the methods can be implemented by delegating to the wrapped ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer. For other implementations, ILcdGXYLayer#applyOnInteract() can be reused. However the implementation should take into account all settings that could modify the painting behavior.

    TLcdComplexPolygon no longer extends TLcdShapeList or implements ILcdShapeList, since this extension was semantically not sound. Although it was occasionally convenient, it was often causing unexpected behavior, for instance when performing a series of instanceof tests. For backward compatibility, the typical TLcdShapeList methods are still available in TLcdComplexPolygon, but code that used to treat TLcdComplexPolygon as an ILcdShapeList will no longer function properly. Notably:
    • Assigning a TLcdComplexPolygon to an ILcdShapeList (local variable, argument, or field) will fail at compile-time.
    • Casting a TLcdComplexPolygon to an ILcdShapeList will fail at run-time (with a ClassCastException).
    • Performing an instanceof test of a TLcdComplexPolygon with ILcdShapeList will now return false at run-time.

    A possible symptom may be that complex polygons are not appearing in a view, because shape list painters and editors no longer work. The simple solution is to use complex polygon painters (like TLcdGXYPointListPainter) instead, which paints polygons correctly (taking into account any holes, unlike the shape list painters).

    Another symptom may be that complex polygons are not being encoded in a custom encoder, because they are no longer recognized. The encoder should then be adapted to iterate over the contained polygons instead of over the contained shapes.

    Two new methods were added to the ILcdDataObject interface: 
          boolean hasValue( TLcdDataProperty aProperty );

      boolean hasValue( String aPropertyName );
    These methods return true if a value is set for the specified property, false otherwise. They allow to test whether a multivalued property has a value, without triggering the creation of the Collection instance holding the values of that property (in case the collection would be empty and getValue() would lazily the collection). Classes that implement ILcdDataObject and do not inherit their ILcdDataObject implementation from a LuciadMap API class will no longer compile and need to be updated. The following code snippet provides a default implementation for these methods that is sufficient for most applications: 
          public boolean hasValue(TLcdDataProperty aProperty ) {
      Object value = getValue( aProperty );
      if ( value != null ) {
      TLcdDataProperty.CollectionType collectionType = aProperty.getCollectionType();
      if ( collectionType != null ) {
      switch ( collectionType ) {
      case LIST:
      case SET:
      return ( ( Collection ) value ).size() > 0;
      case MAP:
      return ( ( Map ) value ).size() > 0;
      }
      }
      // Single-valued.
      return true;
      }
      // No value set.
      return false;
      }

      public boolean hasValue( String aPropertyName ) {
      return hasValue(getDataType().getProperty( aPropertyName ));
      }
    Only in cases where the data objects contain a large number of multivalued properties of which many are empty, a more optimized implementation that does not delegate to getValue() should be considered.

    ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer now defines a new paint mode, PLACED_LABELS, which is used to signal that already placed labels should be painted. This mode is only passed to the layer when an ILcdGXYViewLabelPlacer is set on the view. When not using TLcdGXYLayer or an extension of it and when using an ILcdGXYViewLabelPlacer, the implementation of ILcdGXYLayer#paint() should be adjusted to support the ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer#PLACED_LABELS paint mode.

    ALcdLabelLocations has been modified to provide better support for the tracking of changes in the painted status of TLcdLabelLocation objects. Two methods were adjusted to have an extra argument denoting a fire event mode : setPainted() and clearAllPainted(). Classes extending ALcdLabelLocations should be adjusted to implement these abstract methods. The implementations of these methods can be facilitated by using TLcdLabelLocationEventSupport.

    Three extra abstract methods were added : fireCollectedLabelPaintedChanges(), addLabelPaintedListener() and removeLabelPaintedListener(). TLcdLabelLocationEventSupport can also be used to implement these methods.

    When setPainted() of clearAllPainted() is called by user code, a compile error will be shown. The fix is to add one of the following three modes as extra argument : ILcdFireEventMode.FIRE_NOW, ILcdFireEventMode.FIRE_LATER. Also note that when ILcdFireEventMode.FIRE_LATER is passed to these methods, fireCollectedPaintedChanges() should be called later.

    All AIXM 5.1 methods that represent a value with a unit of measure, such as TLcdAIXM51ValDepth, now have better accessors for the nilReason and the uom attributes. Both of these attributes can no longer be set as a String but require an instance of a specific class. This makes the api more usable.

    Existing users of these accessors that use String instances can simply use the constructors that are available on the new types (TLcdGML32NilReasonEnumeration and TLcdAIXM51Uom*) to create an instance that corresponds to the String. The new types also have predefined constants that correspond to well known values.

    Getters and setters for the 'nilReason' attribute that occurs on various types have been adapted to be compatible with the classes of the actual values of this attribute. Getters and setters that used to work with a String now use a TLcdGML32NilReasonAnnotation or an Object. In case of an Object, the methods support both instances of URI and TLcdGML32NilReasonAnnotation.

    Existing uses of these methods that worked with a String should convert the String to either a URI or a TLcdGML32NilReasonEnumeration when using the setter. For the getter, both of these types can easily be converted to a String if required.

    The names of the AIXM 5.1 enumeration model classes representing units of measure have the 'Type' suffix in their names dropped, and they now have a TLcd prefix. For instance, the ELcdAIXM51UomDepthType class has been renamed as such to TLcdAIXM51UomDepth. This is more consistent with their names in AIXM 5.0.

    These classes have also been changed from enumerations to regular classes. This results in a better correspondence with the AIXM 5.1 schema, and makes other API that uses these classes more usable. A method is available to retrieve all known values for a given type.

    This change will result in compile time errors for code that uses one of classes listed below. These errors can be easily solved by also removing the 'Type' suffix. All uses of the following class names should be replaced with the new names:
    • ELcdAIXM51UomTemperatureType
    • ELcdAIXM51UomDepthType
    • ELcdAIXM51UomDistanceType

    The 'name' and 'description' properties of time slices in the AIXM 5.0 and 5.1 domain model now use a prefix that no longer contains 'TimeSlice', to make them more readable and convenient to use. This means that both property constants and getters and setters for these properties now have a slightly different name.

    Resulting compilation problems can be fixed easily by removing 'TimeSlice' from the affected methods or property names. For instance, TLcdAIXM51AirportHeliportTimeSlice#getAirportHeliportTimeSliceName() will need to be changed to getAirportHeliportName(). Also the corresponding constant AIRPORT_HELIPORT_TIMESLICE_NAME_PROPERTY will need to be changed to AIRPORT_HELIPORT_NAME_PROPERTY.

    This improvement will improve the readability of your code because these method names are now a bit shorter, and it will avoid possible confusion as the previous naming might have suggested that it was the name or description of the time slice instead of the name or description of the actual feature itself.

    Upgrade considerationAviation Standards

    New time slice classes have been added to the AIXM 5.0 and 5.1 domain model, making it easier to access properties that are common between related time slice types (e.g., a runway marking and a taxiway marking). The new classes correspond to abstract feature types (e.g., a marking) that do not have a corresponding time slice type in the AIXM schemas (e.g., a marking).

    This is the list of added classes for AIXM 5.0; corresponding classes for 5.1 are also added:
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractMarkingTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractSegmentLegTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractServiceTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractTrafficSeparationServiceTimeSlice

    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractNavaidEquipmentTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractNavigationSystemCheckpointTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractProcedureTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractRadarEquipmentTimeSlice
    • TLcdAIXM5AbstractSurveillanceRadarTimeSlice

    These classes are now also used in various getters and setters in the domain model. Existing code that uses these methods might experience compilation problems that can easily be fixed by using the correct type.

    Some of these classes also declare a 'name' and/or a 'description' property that used to be declared on the subclasses with a class specific prefix. Due to the introduction of these super classes, the prefix has changed. Resulting compilation problems can be fixed easily by simply changing the used method or constant. For instance, a call to TLcdAIXM51InformationService#getInformationServiceTimeSliceName() will need to be changed to getServiceName(). Also the corresponding constant TLcdAIXM51InformationService#INFORMATION_SERVICE_TIMESLICE_NAME_PROPERTY will need to be changed to SERVICE_NAME_PROPERTY.

    • Support updating tiles that are older than a certain age (enabled, with a 1 minute age, by default)
    • Support using outdated tiles when retrieving an updated version fails (enabled by default)
    The 3D painter was updated to:
    • Simplify customizing the default tile set wrappers such as the asynchronous tile set
    • Support soft caching of the tiles
    • Support updating tiles on demand
    The 3D terrain painter was also updated to:
    • Automatically add the necessary tile set wrappers for combining image and elevation tiles into terrain tiles. As a result it is now advised to no longer add these yourself. You should for example use TLcdEarthRepositoryModelDecoder instead of the TLcdEarthTerrainRepositoryModelDecoder.
    • Support image and elevation tile sets with a different set of tiles (e.g. you no longer need both an image and an elevation tile together). If a tile is missing, a tile at a lower level will be used instead.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A large number of tile set implementations have been updated to support asynchronous tile operation. For example the TLcdEarthTexturedTerrainTileSet produces the elevation and images tiles, needed for a terrain tile, asynchronously. As a result more requests can be executed concurrently. This is especially important if a tile request involves network communication, which can have a high latency. The threads in the TLcdEarthAsynchronousTileSet now also support producing the delegate tiles asynchronously.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The ILcdEarthModelDecoderFactory interface was changed to allow configuration of the created model decoders. More specifically an extra java.util.Map parameter was added to its createModelDecoder method.

    Previously it was not possible to configure the created model decoder. As a result you could not use a single factory, but instead had to create one for each specific use case. Another drawback was that the creator had to know what configuration was optimal for each use case. By adding an extra configuration parameter, the user of the model decoder can specify what configuration is optimal in his use case. This is similar as the ILcdModelHeightProviderFactory.

    As a result of this change you may get some compile errors. In most cases you can fix these by using null or an empty map as the value for the new parameter.

    The com.luciad.format.xml.bind.schema.dataobject package is introduced. This package provides support to bind XML schema automatically to a Java domain model. The domain classes of such a model implement com.luciad.datamodel.ILcdDataObject. More information about this new API can be found in the LuciadMap developer's guide.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Introduced ALcdXMLModelDecoder and ALcdXMLModelEncoder as common base class for model decoder and encoder implementations that are based on XML schema. TLcdXMLModelDecoderWrapper and TLcdXMLModelEncoderWrapper are concrete extensions of these abstract classes that implement their functionality through delegation. These classes are introduced to facilitate the creation of an ILcdModelEncoder and ILcdModelDecoder for model based on XML schema.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LMAP-3146
    Many painters now have a getter and setter for a 'minimum edit delta' property. This property represents the minimum pixel distance the input device (a mouse, for example) must move before editing the shape.

    TLcdISO19103MeasureAnnotation is introduced. This allows data properties to be annotated with an ISO19103 unit of measure.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The new com.luciad.datamodel package introduces support for the new unified approach taken in LuciadMap for the definition and interaction with domain objects. This approach provides a common API to access all domain objects, independent of their specific domain. In addition, this API makes information about the static structure of the domain objects available. This is the information that typically can be found in UML class diagrams.

    This package is designed to be a replacement forILcdFeatured. It is the preferred way to model domain objects as from LuciadMap V10. For backwards compatibility reasons, ILcdFeatured will remain supported. But no new features will be added to it.

    The main classes from this package are the following.
    • ILcdDataObject
    • TLcdDataModel, TLcdDataType and TLcdDataProperty
    • ILcdAnnotation
    The class com.luciad.model.ILcdDataModelDescriptor was added for models of which the elements implementILcdDataObject. More information about this new API can be found in the developer's guide.

    A new package com.luciad.format.metadata has been added. This package is split up in two parts:
    • The com.luciad.format.metadata.model package and subpackages provide a Java class representation of the ISO Metadata domain model.
    • The com.luciad.format.metadata.xml package provide an ISO19139 compliant XML decoder, encoder and XML libraries.
    This new package now supports the final version of the ISO 19139 Metadata XML encoding standard. The domain model of the new package also supports the new unified domain access (all domain classes implement ILcdDataObject). An encoder for exporting metadata to ISO 19139 compliant XML is also provided. Both the decoder and encoder are now based on the XML Binding framework, allowing easy integration with other XML formats that use metadata.

    Support has been added to allow dispatching custom input events to GUI components and, in particular, LuciadMap views and controllers. See TLcdAWTEventDispatcher, TLcdAWTEvent and ILcdAWTEventSource, and/or the developer's guide for more information.

    In addition, a new TLcdTouchEvent type has been defined that enables multi-touch user input. Touch events are automatically generated for Windows 7 Touch compatible devices when using Sun's 1.5 and 1.6 JDK implementations, and you can also create and dispatch touch events yourself. The following new controllers work exclusively with touch-based user input:

    • TLcdGXYTouchEditSelectController
    • TLcdGXYTouchNewController
    • TLcdGXYTouchNavigateController
    • TLcdMapTouchRulerController

    Also, several new touch samples have been added to illustrate the use of this new functionality. Please refer to the developer's guide and the samples section for more information on this new functionality.

    The WFS client API now supports creating and sending the following WFS-T requests:
    • Transaction
    • LockFeature
    • GetFeatureWithLock

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The support for locking and transactions has been improved, and is also WFS 1.1.0 and WFS 1.0.0 compliant. These features can be controlled through a parameter in the servlet configuration file. More information can be found in the developer guide.

    The transactional improvements rely on the new ILcdDataObject interface that is introduced in LuciadMap V10. Users should ensure that the elements of the models provided to the WFS server implement this interface.

    Additional api was added that allows you to customize how locking and transactions are handled. This makes it possible to support any kind of data backend.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The WFS server implementation is now fully WFS 1.1.0 compliant. This results in some changes:
    • The result of a GetFeature request is now a wfs:FeatureCollection
    • The server now performs more strict input checking, invalid input will result in an exception report.
    • Improved filtering capabilities.

    LMAP-3833
    The method ALcdGXYPen#getHotPointSize used to return the maximum of the width and height of an icon set as HotPointIcon. Now it returns the maximum divided by two. Since this property is used as a sensitivity to evaluate whether or not a the representation of an object is touched by a certain pixel, all handles used to have an sensitive region twice as big as the icon representing the handle. Now the region is exactly as big as the icon. For small icons/handles, this might make it more difficult to select or edit them. However it is now possible to increase the sensitivity for interaction directly by passing it in the ILcdGXYContext (see ILcdGXYContext#getSensitivity). This is for instance used by the select and edit controller models (See TLcdGXYEditControllerModel2#setSensitivity for example).

    The ILcdWFSFeatureType interface has been extended with two methods to indicate that the type supports transactions and/or locking. Most existing implementations will want to return false for these methods, which is also the case for implementations that use the TLcdWFSFeatureType class.

    The getModelObjectFactory() method of ILcdWFSFeatureType has been removed. The ILcdDataObject interface is now used to create new instances for specific feature types. This means that servers that wish to support transactions are required to use ILcdDataObject enabled models. Existing transactional WFS implementations should take this into consideration before upgrading.

    The ILcdGXYContext interface has been extended with support for multiple input points (to allow for instance touch based editing with more than one finger) and a built-in sensitivity, a tolerance used by painters and editors when interacting with objects. Because this interface might be further extended in the future, it is strongly discouraged to implement it from scratch. Extend TLcdGXYContext for custom implementations or extend ALcdGXYContextWrapper to create a wrapper for a ILcdGXYContext. These classed will always be kept consistent with the interface.

    The getPaintExceptionHandler() method was added to ILcdGXYView to improve the painting exception handling. All our ILcdGXYView implementations now also contain a setPaintExceptionHandler() method. When a painter throws an exception during painting, and it is caught somewhere, it is up to the exception handler returned by the view to handle this exception. This makes it possible for example to log the exception, and continue painting, but it also makes it possible to add fail-fast behavior, i.e. to pass the exception to the outer application.

    The addition of the getPaintExceptionHandler() to ILcdGXYView affects all custom implementations of ILcdGXYView. It also affects classes that wrap an ILcdGXYView. In both cases a compile error is generated. In the former case the getPaintExceptionHandler() method needs to be implemented, see example code below, in the latter case the getPaintExceptionHandler() can delegate to the wrapped ILcdGXYView. 

          public class CustomGXYView implements ILcdGXYView {

      // Create a default paint exception handler, getPaintExceptionHandler() should never return
      null.

    The ILcdDataObject interface is now used throughout the WFS if it is available, but it is only required for servers that wish to support transactions. It is recommended to use data formats that support ILcdDataObject with the WFS. For backwards compatibility, ILcdFeature objects can also be supported, but this might disable some of the features that are available to ILcdDataObject based types.

    The WFS requires that each ILcdWFSFeatureType corresponds with at most one TLcdDataType. This means that if the elements of an ILcdModel returned by an ILcdOGCModelProvider implement ILcdDataObject, the TLcdDataType of these data objects should be the same for all elements.

The domain classes of the new package have been made consistent with the LuciadMap conventions for mapping XML Schema based data onto Java classes. As a consequence, although both domain models describe the same data, the new API for accessing the data in the model differs from the old API: most classes of the old API still exist in the new API, but have been moved to another package and can have slightly different accessor methods. Users that would have used the metadata API in their projects will need to review and upgrade their code.

    An extra exception parameter was added to the tileNotAvailable method in the ILcdEarthTileSetCallback interface.

    Previously this method only had a String parameter to indicate the reason why the tile is not available. As a result the call back could not easily distinguish the case where a tile was not available because it did not exist or because an error occurred. This also resulted in considerably more difficult debugging if an exception occurred during tile production as its stack trace was not readily available in the tile consumer.

    As a result of this change any implementations of the ILcdEarthTileSetCallback interface will need to be updated. In most cases this only requires a small effort:
    • Delegate to another call back: this is typically the case if the call back is part of an ILcdEarthTileSet implementation that delegates to another tile set such as an implementation of ALcdEarthTileSetWrapper.
    • Handle the exception: this is typically the case if the call back is part of a tile consumer such as a painter for ILcdEarthTileSets.

    TLcdDatabaseReadOnlyModel was not thread-safe (even if the underlying database was unmodified).

    Bug fixLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4105
    Fixed inaccurate fit of TLcdGXYViewFitAction when using unbounded models. Also fixed some other cases where no good fit could be found. Furthermore the performance is better in most cases.

    9.1.20

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4089
    An ILcdAnchoredIcon interface was added, extending ILcdIcon with an anchor point. Also an implementation, TLcdAnchoredIcon, is provided. TLcdGXYIconPainter was adapted to make use of anchor points if an icon implements ILcdAnchoredIcon.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4080
    Empty shape lists return a default bounds at 0,0. As a result, a shape list that contains other shape lists of which some are empty always included 0,0 in its bounds. The bounds calculation code of ALcdShapelist has been improved to ignore empty sub-shape lists.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    LMAP-3904
    A few enhancements were made to the TLcdAdvancedMapRulerController :
    • TLcdAdvancedMapRulerController now allows multiple measures. This can be enabled using setAllowMultipleMeasurements(). It is possible to start a new measurement starting at a point of an old measurement by setting the edit controller to null, see setGXYEditController().
    • It is now possible to add the measurement layer to the view in order to keep painting measurements after terminating interaction. This can be enabled using setAddGXYLayerToGXYView().
    • To give control over the removal of measurements, the measurement layer is exposed using the getGXYLayer() method.
    • A factory method to create a new TLcdGXYLayer is exposed. This method can be overridden to provide the TLcdAdvancedMapRulerController with a custom TLcdGXYLayer.

    Bug fixLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4060
    The copy constructor and clone() method of TLcdGXYViewLabelPainter did not copy all properties.

    Bug fixLuciadFusion

    LMAP-3861
    If the width, height or depth set on an ILcdBounds object has a negative value, then the bounds location is shifted by that (negative) value and the input width/height/depth is considered to be positive. This change affects the main ILcdBounds implementations: TLcdLonLatBounds, TLcdLonLatheightBounds, TLcdLonLatFloatBounds, TLcdXYBounds, TLcdXYZBounds, TLcdXYFloatBounds, TLcdXYZFloatBounds.

    Bug fixLuciadFusion

    LMAP-4049

    9.1.17

    ImprovementAviation Standards

    LMAP-4017
    It is now possible to specify the preferred departure position for procedures decoded from an ARINC file. A new method 'setPreferredDeparturePosition' has been added to the TLcdARINCProcedureHandler class that takes one of the constants RUNWAY_START or RUNWAY_END as an argument. The default setting is RUNWAY_END which is compatible with the older behaviour.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    It is now possible in APP-6A to render the following symbols with more than two points:
    • Minimum Risk Route (MRR) (2.X.2.1.2.2.2
    • Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Route (2.X.2.1.2.2.4)
    • Low Level Transit Route (LLTR) (2.X.2.1.2.2.5)

    Bug fixDefense Symbology

    The APP-6A symbol Final Protective Fire (FPF), 2.X.2.3.2.3.1, now uses two or more points to define the base polyline, instead of a fixed set of three points. This is more in line with the APP-6A specification.

    LuciadMap now supports parametric orthorectification - rectification based on information about the imaging sensor and the terrain elevation. Parametric orthorectification is implemented by the following new interfaces and classes:
    • TLcdPerspectiveProjection - describes the projection corresponding to a real imaging sensor. This class is an improvement over the existing TLcdGeneralPerspective - the point of perspective is no longer required to be outside the Earth ellipsoid. The origin of the projection plane and the set of input parameters are also different, being designed specifically for the convenient representation of a real imaging sensor.
    • TLcdOrthorectifiedProjection - adjusts an existing projection by taking terrain elevation into account.
    • ILcdHeightProvider - an interface for providing elevation information at a given point.
    • TLcdFixedHeightProvider - basic implementation of a height provider that returns the same height for any point.

    An option can now be specified in the WMS servlet configuration file (web.xml) to invert the bounding box coordinates in case the request version is 1.3.0 and the reference is EPSG:4326. If these conditions hold, and the option is set, the x coordinates will be interpreted as latitudes and the y coordinates as longitudes.

    For WMS version 1.1.1, the order is defined as x=lon, y=lat. In version 1.3.0 it was decided that the order should be consistent with the order defined in the EPSG:4326 reference which is lat/lon. Consequently, some WMS 1.3.0 servers have changed their interpretation of EPSG:4326 coordinates, while others sticked to the old (WMS 1.1.1) interpretation.

    Use the configuration option if you want to comply with the WMS 1.3.0 specification. Do note that the EPSG:4326 reference is officially deprecated, so the problem can be circumvented by not supporting this reference.

    Add the following to your WMS web.xml file to enable inversion: 
          <init-param>
        <param-name>EPSG.4326.latlon</param-name>
        <param-value>true</param-value>

    ALcdWMSProxy: added a getter boolean isInvertXYForEPSG4326() and setter setInvertXYForEPSG4326( boolean aInvertXYForEPSG4326 ). This has to be used by implementations of this class to determine whether the bounding box coordinates for WMS version 1.3.0 and reference EPSG:4326 should be specified as x=lon and y=lat which is the default, or x=lat and y=lon which is inverted.

    For WMS version 1.1.1, the order is defined as x=lon, y=lat. In version 1.3.0 it was decided that the order should be consistent with the order defined in the EPSG:4326 reference which is lat/lon. Consequently, some WMS 1.3.0 servers have changed their interpretation of EPSG:4326 coordinates, while others sticked to the old (WMS 1.1.1) interpretation.

    The WMS client API has been extended with new functionality to connect with a WMS service:
    • A new class TLcdWMSClient has been introduced that facilitates direct communication with a WMS service, by offering functionality to create and send custom requests, and interpreting their result.
    • Requests are modeled by the existing interface ILcdOWSRequest, of which default implementations exist to represent the existing WMS requests: TLcdWMSGetCapabilitiesRequest, TLcdWMSGetFeatureInfoRequest, TLcdWMSGetMapRequest, TLcdWMSDescribeLayerRequest and TLcdWMSGetLegendGraphicRequest.
    • The result of a GetCapabilities request is an ALcdOGCWMSCapabilities instance. The result of the other requests is modeled by a TLcdOWSInputStream. This existing class is an extension of InputStream with the addition of a content type property and some metadata.
    • To allow control over the communication platform used to connect with a service, the interface ILcdOWSTransport can be used. This interface is used by TLcdWMSClient for its communication. A default implementation TLcdOWSHttpTransport exists with support for the HTTP protocol.
    The existing API, consisting of a TLcdOGCWMSProxyModelDecoder to create an ALcdWMSProxy object for a given WMS URL, has been adapted to use the new TLcdWMSClient class.

    Support has been added for the military standard MIL-STD 2525c. This standard can be used through the regular MIL-STD 2525b API, by using the following Java VM property when starting an application: -Dcom.luciad.symbology.milstd2525b.ms2525c=true. Afterwards, the MIL-STD 2525c symbology becomes available in the hierarchy tree of the MIL-STD 2525b customizer and the domain object TLcdEditableMS2525bObject accepts MIL-STD 2525c symbol id codes.

Also, all our ILcdView implementations now fire a PropertyChangeEvent when altering the autoUpdate property.

    The impact of this change should be minimal. The added methods were actually moved from ILcdGXYView and ILcdGLView, so all existing views implementing these interfaces can remain unchanged. Views implementing ILcdView directly will cause a compile error.

    A set of new shape interfaces and implementations have been added to com.luciad.shape, to support open and/or closed shapes consisting of a connected combination of lines and arcs.

    For this purpose, a new interface ILcdCurve has been added to com.luciad.shape, providing a general representation of a continuous, one-dimensional shape. Examples of curves are lines, arcs, or any connected combination thereof. The following extensions and implementations of this interface are introduced:
    • ILcdRing: a closed curve (i.e., begin and end point are the same),
    • ILcdCompositeCurve, TLcdCompositeCurve: a connected sequence of curves,
    • TLcdLonLatCompositeRing, TLcdXYCompositeRing: a closed, connected sequence of curves,
    • TLcdLonLatRhumbPolyline: a polyline consisting of rhumbline segments (i.e., constant bearing),
    • TLcdLonLatRhumbPolygon: a polygon consisting of rhumbline segments (i.e., constant bearing),
    • ILcdCircularArcByBulge: a circular arc defined by a start point, end point, a bulge direction and a bulge factor,
    • ILcdCircularArcBy3Points: a circular arc defined by a start point, end point, and a third point on the arc,
    • ILcdCircularArcByCenterPoint: a circular arc defined by a center point, radius, start angle and arc angle,
    • ILcdCircleBy3Points: a circle defined by 3 points.

    To support the visualization and editing of newly introduced shape types, the following painter/editor implementations have been introduced:
    • TLcdGXYCompositeCurvePainter: paints and enables visual editing of ILcdCompositeCurve objects,
    • TLcdGXYCompositeRingPainter: paints and enables visual editing of ILcdCompositeCurve/ILcdRing objects,
    • TLcdGXYCircularArcPainter: paints and enables visual editing of ILcdCircularArcByBulge, ILcdCircularArcBy3Points and ILcdCircularArcByCenterPoint objects.
    • TLcdGXYCircleBy3PointsPainter: paints and enables visual editing of ILcdCircleBy3Points objects.
    Shapes of type TLcdLonLatRhumbPolyline or TLcdLonLatRhumbPolygon are supported by the existing TLcdGXYPointListPainter class.

    To ensure the connectivity between different curves in an ILcdCompositeCurve, the interface ILcdCurveConnector is introduced. By means of an ILcdCurveConnectorProvider, it is used by painter/editor implementations TLcdGXYCompositeCurvePainter and TLcdGXYCompositeRingPainter to ensure connectivity while editing.

The DMED/DTED model decoders also provide a new property applyGeodeticDatums, which lets the decoders automatically add the geoid heights to the elevation values of the rasters themselves.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Using interactive labels has been simplified: the layout manager of the ILcdGXYView (for example TLcdMapJPanel) no longer needs to be set to null because this is the default now. The CellRendererPane is now added to the Swing tree inside the SwingGXYLabelStamp.

    The following additional API changes have been done:
    • The static newInstance() methods of all unmarshaller and marshaller context classes have been replaced with ordinary constructors in the new decoder and encoder classes.
    • The unmarshal() and marshal() methods of all unmarshaller and marshaller context classes have been renamed to decode() andencode().
    • The configureContext() methods of all (un)marshaller library interfaces have been to configureDecoder() andconfigureEncoder().
    • The Map argument of the (un)marshal and (un)marshalType methods of all (un)marshallers, type (un)marshallers and datatype (un)marshallers has been replaced with a ILcdXMLDocumentContext argument, which offers a richer API for storing and retrieving objects, based on their scope within the XML document.
    • TLcdXMLSchemaBindingDescriptor is no longer part of the API. Its functionality has been largely moved to the more general TLcdXMLSchemaBasedMapping class.
    • The ILcdXMLObjectFactory and TLcdXMLTypeObjectFactoryProvider classes have been introduced in the API, in order to separate object instantiation and unmarshalling during theXML decoding process. This allows to plug in custom object factories without having to rewrite unmarshallers.
    • The ILcdXMLElementInfo interface has been added to the API to allow for XML-Java-XML roundtrips without loss of information. This purpose of this interface is similar to the one provided by JAXBElement: it models an XML element, and allows to store specific XML-related information about the element, which is typically not stored otherwise in the Java representation of the XML data.
    • All unmarshaller and marshaller interfaces, and their corresponding providers have been generified, with as type parameter the Java class they can unmarshal or marshal.

    • The removeModel(ILcdModel) method now returns a boolean indicating whether a model has been removed from the collection of models and no longer throws a NoSuchElementException when the model was not part of the model list. Classes overriding this method will result in a compile error. Usages of this method which relied on the NoSuchElementException will behave oddly at runtime, since no such error is thrown anymore. The returned boolean can now be used in order to determine whether a model was an element of the model list. It is also no longer necessary to check whether the model is part of the model list before calling the removeModel(ILcdModel) method.
    • The methods modelCount(), models(), addModelContainerListener(ILcdModelContainerListener) and removeModelContainerListener(ILcdModelContainerListener) have been added.

    The interfaces ILcdTreeLayered, ILcdLayerTreeNode and ILcdModelTreeNode have been introduced, allowing to easily create hierarchical layer and model structures. In relation to that, these changes were made:
    1. A getter and setter for an ILcdIcon are added to the ILcdLayer interface. The impact is minimal as all sub-interfaces (ILcdGXYLayer and ILcdGLLayer) already had these methods. If you are affected by this change, it results in a compile error.
    2. ILcdGXYView now implements ILcdTreeLayered instead of ILcdLayered. This results in one new method (getRootNode). In the unlikely event of implementing an ILcdGXYView directly, please implement the extra method as well, probably by delegating the call to another ILcdGXYView. If you are affected by this change, it results in a compile error.
    3. The following methods in ILcdModelContainer have been renamed to avoid clashing with the methods of ILcdModel. As this interface was not used anywhere, the impact is expected to be minimal. If you are affected by this change, it results in a compile error. 
      • elements()
        to 
        models()
      • size()
        to 
        modelCount()
      • elementAt(int)
        to 
        getModel(int)
    4. The addModel method of ILcdModelContainer can now throw IllegalArgumentException for invalid objects.
    5. TLcdLayeredEvent now contains (optional) indices, indicating where the change took place. All LuciadMap code is adapted to provide those indices.
    As long as no ILcdLayerTreeNode s are used, nothing changes except the changes mentioned above. When layer nodes are used, extra care must be taken when
    • Moving a GXYLayer in the GXYView: ILcdGXYView now implements ILcdTreeLayered which affects the behavior of the move operation. The move operation has become a best effort approach. Details of the implications of this change can be found in the developer guide and in the javadoc of the TLcdTreeLayeredSupport#moveLayerAt.
    • Inserting a layer node in the GXYView: inserting a layer node in the view adds the layer node as a child of the root node, and adds the layer node and all of its children to the view (ILcdGXYView#layers()). Events are generated for every layer that was added to the view.
    • Requesting all the layers from the GXYView:

      calling ILcdGXYView#layers() returns all the layers and layer nodes in the view. When for example copying these layers to another view by looping over the result care must be taken (this is typically done when printing a view). Since the layer nodes are also returned, adding a layer node to the second view will also insert all the child layers to the second view. Those child layers were also returned when calling ILcdGXYView#layers(), hence they would be added twice.

      A correct approach for the use-case mentioned above is requesting all the child layers from the root node of the view, and add all those layer(node)s to the second view. Consult the developer guide for a more detailed explanation.

    • Layer order of the GXYview: the paint order of the layers in the view (ILcdGXYView#layers) is not necessarily related to the layer tree structure (ILcdGXYView#getRootNode). This means that all tasks that directly or indirectly rely on the paint order (for example select controller, ... ) should continue to use the 'flat list' (ILcdGXYView#layers()) and not the hierarchical structure (getRootNode) directly.
    • Adding a model to an ILcdView: adding a model to an ILcdView by calling ILcdView#addModel will use the layer factory which is set on the view. Depending on whether the layer factory creates ILcdLayerTreeNode 's for TLcdModelList's and/or ILcdModelTreeNode's, the behavior of the addModel method will be slightly different:
      1. When a model list is added to the view, and a layer node is created to represent this model list, the model list should not be set as the model of the layer tree node. Hence calling ILcdTreeLayered#layerOf(ILcdModel) with the model list will throw a NoSuchElementException. In case a layer list is created, the model list should be the model of the layer list and calling ILcdTreeLayered#layerOf(ILcdModel) will return the created layer list.
      2. When a model list is added to the view, and a layer node is created to represent this model list, the view will be aware of the layer node itself and all of its child layers. These child layers represent the sub-models of the model list. Calling ILcdTreeLayered#layerOf(ILcdModel) with one of the sub-models will return the correct child layer. In case a layer list is created, the view is not aware of the different sub layers. Calling ILcdTreeLayered#layerOf(ILcdModel) with one of the sub-models will throw a NoSuchElementException.
        Notice that the same remark is valid for adding an ILcdLayerTreeNode directly to the view. The view will be aware of the layer tree node and its child layers, which is not the case when a layer list is added to the view.

    The recommended way to replace existing ILcdGXYLayerList's to ILcdLayerTreeNode's is to create an empty ILcdLayerTreeNode and add all the layers as child layers to the created layer tree node instead of adding them to a new ILcdGXYLayerList.

    However, care must be taken since the behavior of the layer lists and layer nodes is slightly different on some points:

    • The model: the model of the ILcdGXYLayerList was an ILcdModelList, composed of all the models of the sub-layers. The ILcdLayerTreeNode is a layer itself, with child layers, without any relationship between the model of the node and the models of its children. So the model list should not be used as the model of the layer tree node, as that would cause objects to be painted twice.
    • All ILcdGXYLayer operations: the standard ILcdGXYLayerList implementation (TLcdGXYLayerList) delegated those operations to all of its sub-layers, where calling these methods on an ILcdLayerTreeNode will not pass the call to its children. So for example the 
      applyOnInteract
      method will work on the node itself, and not on the child layers which was the case for the layer list. Another example is the 
      getSelectionCount()
      method. For an TLcdGXYLayerList this returned the sum of the selection counts of all the sub-layers, where for an ILcdLayerTreeNode it just returns the selection count of the node itself. If one wants to retrieve the selection count of all the sub-layers, (s)he must loop over all sub-layers and ask the sub-layers for their selection count. Consult the javadoc of those methods for more detailed information about the differences.
      Similarly, listeners added to a node only receive changes about that node itself and not about the child nodes. Some addHierarchy*Listener methods are available that do listen on a node and all its descendants.
    • The view: with an ILcdGXYLayerList, the view was unaware of the sub-layers and treated the layer list and its sub layers as one big layer. This is no longer the case with an ILcdLayerTreeNode. When such a node is added to the view, all of its child layers are also added and the view knows about those child layers. This happens automatically. For example, it is not necessary to add both the node and all its child layers to the view individually. Adding the node is sufficient. Consult the developer's guide for more information (the section about ILcdTreeLayered).

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The use of com.luciad.format.xml.TLcdXMLName in the WFS client API has been removed in favor of javax.xml.namespace.QName, which is the Java equivalent of this class. This affects the following classes and methods:
    • TLcdWFSProxyModelFactory#createProxyModel()
    • TLcdWFSProxyModelDescriptor#getFeatureTypeName() and constructor
    • TLcdWFSProxyModel#setGeometryPropertyName() and getGeometryPropertyName()
    • TLcdWFSFeatureType#setName() and getName()
    The methods TLcdWFSFeatureType#setNameSpacePrefix() and getNameSpacePrefix() have been removed, because the prefix information is already contained in the QName object.

    Implementations can easily upgrade by replacing 'TLcdXMLName.getInstance("namespace", "localPart")' with 'new QName("namespace", "localPart")', or by invoking TLcdXMLName#asQName on an existing TLcdXMLName instance.

    Although QName is only available since JDK 1.5, a backport library ws-commons-java5-1.0.1.jar is provided with LuciadMap to have it also in JDK 1.4.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The WCS client API no longer enforces to represent GetCoverage responses as java.awt.image.RenderedImage objects; instead, they are now modeled as a generic tile (ILcdTile), to allow support for responses that can not be converted to an image. For this purpose, the interface ILcdWCSCoverageDecoder has been replaced with ILcdWCSCoverageTileDecoder. The class TLcdWCSProxyModelFactory has been updated accordingly, and now accepts ILcdWCSCoverageTileDecoder implementations to support other formats than the default format (GeoTIFF).

    Existing implementations of ILcdWCSCoverageDecoder need to converted to the new interface, which can be done by wrapping the RenderedImage in a TLcdRenderedImageTile. Consequently, this might require an update when TLcdWCSProxyModelFactory#createProxyModel is used.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The interface com.luciad.ogc.common.ILcdKVPRequest, used by the WFS and WCS server to represent a key-value pair request, has been extended with a new method getParameterNames(). It returns a list of all the parameters that are specified in the request. Although unlikely, this change requires an update if there are custom implementations of this interface.

    LMAP-2723
    To allow a WFS Server implementation to serve data without geometry, the WFS Server API no longer enforces the use of ILcd2DBoundsIndexedModel when decoding models. The API is now compatible with regular ILcdModel implementations, so that implementations like TLcdVectorModel can be used that do not require objects to have a geometric extent.

    To be able to support this, the return type of the following methods is now ILcdModel instead of ILcd2DBoundsIndexedModel:
    • ILcdOGCModelProvider#getModel,
    • ILcdWFSFilteredModelFactory#createFilteredModel,
    • TLcdWFSFilteredModelFactory#createFilteredModel.
    This might require an update, if there are explicit dependencies on the previous return type.

    The list of features to uniquely define an object (see ILcdARINCHandler#getKeyFeatureNames) has been updated for the following set of ARINC handlers:
    • TLcdARINCWayPointHandler: ILcdARINCWayPointFeature.IDENTIFIER, ILcdARINCWayPointFeature.ICAO_REGION, ILcdARINCWayPointFeature.REGION_CODE
    • TLcdARINCAerodromeHandler: ILcdARINCAerodromeFeature.IDENTIFICATION, ILcdARINCAerodromeFeature.ICAO_REGION

    • TLcdARINCNDBHandler: ILcdARINCNDBFeature.IDENTIFIER, ILcdARINCNDBFeature.ICAO_REGION, ILcdARINCNDBFeature.NAVAID_CLASS
    • TLcdARINCMarkerHandler: ILcdARINCMarkerFeature.AIRPORT_ID, ILcdARINCMarkerFeature.RUNWAY_ID, ILcdARINCMarkerFeature.IDENTIFIER, ILcdARINCMarkerFeature.MARKER_TYPE
    The previous list of features in these handlers did not uniquely define the decoded objects. Because duplicates are ignored, this resulted in too few objects in the decoded models. The handlers TLcdARINCEnrouteAirwayHandler, TLcdARINCHoldingHandler and TLcdARINCProcedureHandler have been updated accordingly, to take into account the new list of features when retrieving an object from one of the decoded models (e.g., a procedure that refers to a waypoint). This results in an improved and more accurate representation of the decoded objects, when previously some referred objects could not be found.

    If there is an explicit dependency on the previous list of features, this might require some implementation changes. For example, if the previous list of features was used as a unique index on the decoded models, it should now be used as a normal index that can return multiple objects instead of only one.

    A new interface ILcdGeoBuffer has been added to com.luciad.shape. This ILcdShape extension represents a buffer or corridor shape, defined by a base shape and a width. An editable extension ILcd2DEditableGeoBuffer is added to com.luciad.shape.shape2D. Two 2D implementations TLcdLonLatGeoBuffer and TLcdXYGeoBuffer are added to com.luciad.shape.shape2D to create a two-dimensional buffer object from a polyline base shape, in geodetic space or in cartesian space. To paint the buffer objects in 2D, a painter TLcdGXYGeoBufferPainter has been added to com.luciad.view.gxy.painter. To calculate the contour, a method computeBufferContour2D has been added to TLcdEllipsoidUtil and TLcdCartesian, which are respectively used for an ellipsoidal and cartesian context.

    These new domain objects are to be used in favor of the existing 2D buffer implementation, TLcdLonLatBuffer. The new implementations use arcs to connect segments and properly handle overlapping areas, sharp angles and degenerate cases.

No exceptions are thrown anymore; an empty index is created instead.
    • If retrieveIndex is called for a unique index, this method now returns a Vector containing the unique element that matches the query, instead of returning null.
    • If retrieveUniqueIndex is called for a non-unique index, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown now, instead of returning null.
    • If retrieveIndex or retrieveUniqueIndex is called for an index which was not created yet, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown now, instead of returning null.

    Some methods of ILcdModel and its implementations now throw better exceptions:
    • The addModelListener and removeModelListener now throw a NullPointerException if the argument is null. All implementations in the com.luciad.model package have been modified to be compliant with the new specification.
    • The editing methods of all non-editable models in the com.luciad.model package now throw an UnsupportedOperationException instead of an IllegalArgumentException.
    • TLcd2DBoundsIndexedModel, TLcd2DRegularTiledBoundsIndexedModel, TLcdSoft2DBoundsIndexedModel and TLcdTiled2DBoundsIndexedModel now always throw a NullPointerException if the applyOnInteract2DBounds method is called with a null function or bounds (this was not the case in previous versions, if the model was empty).

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The specification of addElement, addElements, removeElement and removeElements in ILcdModel has been changed; implementations are no longer required to throw an IllegalArgumentException when an invalid element is added or removed. Instead, these methods now have a precondition (
        canAddElement(aElement)
    ) which should hold for the element(s) that is being added/removed. It is unspecified by default what happens if one of these methods is called while the precondition does not hold. All implementations of ILcdModel in com.luciad.model no longer call canAddElement or canRemoveElement from within the addElement(s)/removeElement(s) methods. Existing code that relies on the IllegalArgumentException exception being thrown: 
          try {
      model.addElement(aElement, ILcdModel.FIRE_NOW);
      }
      catch(IllegalArgumentException e) {
      // Do something.

      model.addElement(aElement, ILcdModel.FIRE_NOW);
      }
      else {
      // Do something.

    A number of issues in the existing buffer domain object TLcdLonLatBuffer and corresponding painter TLcdGXYBufferPainter have been fixed in the new buffer implementation, by the introduction of a new geodetic implementation TLcdLonLatGeoBuffer and a new painter implementation TLcdGXYGeoBufferPainter. The following problems had been identified in the past and are fixed in the new implementation:
    • LMAP-2569: the fill of a buffer does not match with the contour for wide buffers,
    • LMAP-2608: a narrow buffer cannot be moved with TLcdGXYBufferPainter,
    • 2446: TLcdLonLatBuffer does not handle degenerate cases,
    • 2782: the line/fill style handling of TLcdGXYBufferPainter is inconsistent,
    • 3682: sharp angles in the axis of a buffer are not handled correctly by TLcdLonLatBuffer and TLcdGXYBufferPainter,
    • 4033: overlapping areas are not handled correctly by TLcdGXYBufferPainter,
    • 4549,5421,5475: TLcdGXYBufferPainter does not allow to move a buffer if it is part of a composite selection but not touched,

    A new interface, ILcdS57FeatureObject, was added to the API. This interface is the new root interface for all S-57 domain objects. The previous root interface, ILcdS57Object, has become an extension of this interface. While the ILcdS57Object could not be used to model objects without geometry (such as S-57 collections), the new ILcdS57FeatureObject interface can, as it does not extend the ILcdShape interface. A default implementation of the new interface, TLcdS57FeatureObject, is also available. S-57 models will remain backwards compatible; they will only contain the objects which have an associated geometry (and thus implement ILcdS57Object). Objects without geometry are only reachable through relationships with geometric objects.

    The S-57 domain model is extended and now supports S-57 relationships. Relationships are modelled using the ILcdS57Relationship and TLcdS57Relationship classes. The new ILcdS57FeatureObject interface provides methods to retrieve the relationships they are involved in. As the existing ILcdS57Object interface is an extension of this new interface, this means all existing implementations of ILcdS57Object need to be extended with these methods. The TLcdS57ModelDecoder is extended to decode and support relationships.

    Performance of the VPF model decoder has been improved significantly. The decoding time of both memory models (on-the-fly and in-memory model) has been reduced, as well as the memory usage of both models. The documentation of TLcdVPFModelDecoder contains some extra performance tips. Additionally, a new model type has been introduced, the hybrid model, which is generally faster than the on-the-fly model, and requires less memory than the in-memory model. It uses a caching mechanism, adapting itself to the amount of available memory (the more memory available, the better the model will perform). This model is from now on the default model, used by the VPF model decoder.

    The LuciadMap APP-6A package now offers support for TTA-106 V4, an extension for APP-6A with an additional set of symbols. By default, TTA-106 support is disabled. It can be activated by using the following Java VM property when starting an application that uses the APP-6A package: -Dcom.luciad.symbology.app6a.tta106=true. Afterwards, the TTA-106 extension becomes available in the hierarchy tree of the APP-6A customizer and the domain object TLcdEditableAPP6AObject accepts TTA-106 symbol id codes. These objects can be used in the same way as regular APP-6A objects.

    • Air Corridor (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.2.2.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.2.2.1)
    • Flight Route (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.2.2.3, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.2.2.3)

    This is in accordance with the specification, which defines that these symbols can contain multiple line segments.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    A set of tactical MIL-STD 2525b symbols have received additional labels, to improve their usability. The label list
    • Unique Designation (T): configurable through the modifier ILcdMS2525bCoded.sUniqueDesignation
    • Additional Information (H): configurable through the modifier ILcdMS2525bCoded.sAdditionalInformation
    • Date Time Group (W): configurable through the modifier ILcdMS2525bCoded.sDateTimeGroup
    • Effective Time (w): configurable through the modifiers ILcdMS2525bCoded.sEffectiveTime
    • Superior / Higher Formation (M): configurable through the modifiers ILcdMS2525bCoded.sHigherFormation
    • Altitude / Depth (X): configurable through the modifiers ILcdMS2525bCoded.sAltitudeDepth
    • Location (Y): configurable through the modifiers ILcdMS2525bCoded.sLocationLabel
    is now applicable to the following list of tactical point symbols
    • 2.X.2.1.1.1.1.1, G*G*GPUUD-****X
    • 2.X.2.1.1.1.2, G*G*GPUY--****X and children

    As in the past, individual modifiers can be restrained from being displayed as a label by using the method setLabelEnabled(String) in ILcdMS2525bStyle. A style can be associated with a symbol through ILcdMS2525bStyled, or it can be set as a default style on a (label) painter provider.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The rendering of the following APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b tactical symbols has been improved:
    • The 'Fortified line' symbol (MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.3.3.3, G*M*SL----****X; APP-6A: 2.X.2.2.3.3, G*C*BSL---*****) now takes the 'cornerSmoothness' property of the symbol's style into account, to render a rounded polyline. By using 0 as value for this property, the original rendering with straight corners can still be reinstated.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The rendering of the MIL-STD 2525b tactical symbols 'Dose rate contour lines' (G*M*NL----****X, 2.X.3.4.9) and 'Series or Group of Targets' (2.X.4.3.1.3), and of the APP-6A tactical symbols 'Dose rate contour lines' (G*C*BWR---*****, 2.X.2.2.4.12), 'Series of Targets using Regular Targets' (G*C*FARS--*****, 2.X.2.3.3.4.1), 'Series of Targets using Rectangular Targets' (G*C*FARU--*****, 2.X.2.3.3.4.2), 'Groups of Targets using Regular Targets' (G*C*FAZT--*****, 2.X.2.3.3.7.1) and 'Groups of Targets using Rectangular Targets' (G*C*FAZU--*****, 2.X.2.3.3.7.2) have been improved:
    • The 'cornerSmoothness' property of the symbol's style is now used to render a rounded area. By using 0 as value for this property, the original rendering with straight corners can still be reinstated.
    • The label of the symbol is now drawn with the font of the symbol's style (cfr. 'labelFont' property in ILcdMS2525bStyle and ILcdAPP6AStyle), instead of using a scaled version of this font.

    If you are running your LuciadMap application in JRE 1.4 or earlier, you must not forget to put the appropriate backport-util-concurrent-java*.jar in the class path. While this was only strictly necessary for multi-threaded code in the past, it is now required by common LuciadMap classes.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcd2DBoundsIndexedModel is no longer left in an inconsistent state when a non bounded object is added. The model now throws an IllegalArgumentException for non bounded objects. As this is a runtime exception, this change will not incurr compiling errors. There should also be no effect at runtime, since adding non bounded objects previously would have left the model in an invalid state.

    The paint mode values of the TLcdGXYPointListPainter (POINT, POLYLINE, POLYGON, FILLED and OUTLINED_FILLED) have changed to make it consistent across all area painters. It may be required to recompile your application in order to use the new values of the constants.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcdLonLatHeightPoint: The implementation is now slightly faster. In the very unlikely event that somebody is using the protected fields fCosLat, fCosLon, fSinLat or fSinLon, they should update their code to use the getCosY(), getCosX(), getSinY() and getSinX() methods.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcdG2DLineStyle no longer has an inconsistency between the set and get methods for the color and the selection color. Both methods now assume the widths are doubles. This change will not affect existing code, as the argument of the setter is widened to a double from an int.

    To support editable labels for airspaces and navaids, the labelpainters TLcdICAOAirspaceDetailedLabelPainter and TLcdICAONavaidLabelPainter (which is extended by TLcdICAODMELabelPainter, TLcdICAONDBLabelPainter, TLcdICAOTACANLabelPainter and TLcdICAOVORLabelPainter) do now extend from TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter instead of TLcdGXYLabelPainter. Because TLcdGXYLabelPainter is a subclass of TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter, a number of methods are not available anymore:
    • public getLabelTextAlignmentMode(), setLabelTextAlignmentMode(int): was not used, because text aligment is automatically chosen to comply with the ICAO guidelines.
    • public isConsiderPinForBounds(), setConsiderPinForbounds(boolean): was not used.
    • public isFrame(), setFrame(boolean): was not used, because framed labels are automatically used to comply with the ICAO guidelines.
    • public paintLabel(int aLocationIndex, java.awt.Graphics aGraphics, int aMode, ILcdGXYContext aGXYContext): replaced by paintLabel(java.awt.Graphics aGraphics, int aMode, ILcdGXYContext aGXYContext), because the location is automatically determined by TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter
    • protected paintPin(java.awt.Graphics aGraphics, int aMode, int aStartPointX, int aStartPointY, int aEndPointX, int aEndPointY): painting the pin is handled automatically by TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter
    • protected calculateMaxLabelWidth(java.lang.String[] aLabelArray, java.awt.Graphics aGraphics): only removed in TLcdGXYNavaidLabelPainter, but still available in TLcdICAOAirspaceDetailedLabelPainter as it was a public method in that class.
    • protected getUpperLeftPointSFCT(java.awt.Point aAnchorPoint, java.lang.String[] aLabelArray, int aMaxLabelWidth, int aSingleLabelHeight, java.awt.Point aLocationPointSFCT): the position of the upper left point is now automatically determined by TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter.
    • protected getPinPointSFCT(java.awt.Point aAnchorPoint, java.lang.String[] aLabelArray, int aSingleLabelHeight, java.awt.Point aPinLocation): the position of the pin point is now automatically determined by TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter.
    These changes may be incompatible if any code made use of one of the methods listed above or if it explicitly relied on the fact that these labelpainters were of the type TLcdGXYLabelPainter (e.g., in an instanceof test).

    TLcdASTERIXLiveDecoder: To avoid threading problems between the decoder adapting the data and a user (for example) painting the data, all data modifications used to be done on the event dispatch thread (aka AWT thread). As this thread is also used for painting, there were no threading problems because all modifications and read access were queued and executed one after the other. The drawback is that this does not offer much flexibility and scalability, nor does it play well server side.

    Instead, TLcdASTERIXLiveDecoder now simply adapts the data on the calling thread, but uses TLcdLockUtil to acquire a write lock whenever it does so. As a result, users of the live decoder should now protect read access by acquiring a read lock (using TLcdLockUtil). The live sample uses a an extension of EditableLabelsLockedGXYLayer to do so.

This can be important for objects that are different in selection and regular mode. For example, the axis polyline of a buffer only appears in selected mode, and a right click on the axis polyline deselected the object before showing the popup window.

    The field for the property 'enabled' in ALcdAction no longer has protected visibility. If code referred to this field directly, replace the code by calling the already existing setEnabled/getEnabled methods. The trivial method asAction which returned the object itself has been removed. If any code used this method, the call to this method can be removed completely.

    The performance of warping raster painters for painting elevation rasters has been improved.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYBoundsPainter now supports moving the bounds outside of the world as long as the bottom-left corner remains in the world or re-enters the world in another location. For example, in equidistant cylindrical projection the bounds can now be moved across the date line in both directions.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYNewController now only pans the view on a mouse exit when the creation of the object is taking place. Before and after creation, the view is not panned when the mouse exits the view.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The raster painters now have a property avoidOpaqueBorder, to avoid drawing opaque borders around warped rasters with IndexColorModels, without transparent pixels. Please note that setting the property entails some processing overhead when such rasters are painted.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdTABModelDecoder and TLcdTFWModelDecoder now have settable input stream factories for accessing TAB and TFW files, respectively.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGeoTIFFModelDecoder and TLcdTABModelDecoder now have a new property allowOrthographicReferencing, specifying whether rasters that are postioned in geodetic references, using tie points, may be put in approximating orthographic grid references that are centered around the rasters. The resulting georeferencing will generally be more accurate than when just trying to rotate the rasters in their original geodetic references. The default is true.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The classes TLcdGXYStampLabelPainter, TLcdGXYPolygonLabelPainter, TLcdGXYPolylineLabelPainter and TLcdGXYIconPainter now have methods for adding halo effects to labels or icons. Halo's can be enabled by setting the halo thickness (setHaloThickness()) to a value larger than zero. The color can be changed via the setHaloColor() method. Additionally, two new classes, TLcdGXYHaloPainter and TLcdGXYHaloLabelPainter are also added to the API. These classes can be used to add a halo effect to other ILcdGXYPainter or ILcdGXYLabelPainter implementations. Halo's can be added by wrapping an existing painter in one of these two halo painters. They offer similar API methods as TLcdGXYLabelPainter and TLcdGXYIconPainter for configuring the halo thickness and color.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYBoundsPainter, TLcdGXYBufferPainter, TLcdGXYLonLatHeightBufferPainter, and TLcdGXYPointListPainter now have consistent editing behaviour. For each of these painters/editors the shape as displayed after editing will be exactly as it was when the mouse was released while editing. Previously, shapes could 'jump' when editing was finished.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The package com.luciad.model contains two new model decoders, TLcdTarModelListDecoder and TLcdZipModelListDecoder, for decoding all the entries inside tar and zip archives, respectively. The actual decoding of the entries is performed by model decoders that can be specified. At a lower level, the package com.luciad.io contains two related new input stream factories, TLcdTarInputStreamFactory and TLcdZipInputStreamFactory, for creating input streams for entries inside tar and zip archives, respectively. Note that TLcdTarModelListDecoder and TLcdTarInputStreamFactory require the new library tar.jar.

    TLcdDIMAPModelDecoder now uses the georeferencing information from the GeoTIFF or DTED rasters, falling back on the georeferencing information from the DIMAP metadata files if necessary.

    ImprovementAdvanced Raster Services

    TLcdDIMAPModelDecoder now also decodes DTED elevation data, assuming a shared buffer has been set, to cache the decoded DTEDs. When upgrading, you should therefore consider passing a shared buffer to the constructor of the decoder.

    ImprovementAdvanced Raster Services

    TLcdDIMAPModelDecoder now provides support for image input stream factories, for accessing the actual raster files (GeoTIFF and DTED).

    ImprovementAdvanced Raster Services

    TLcdDIMAPModelDecoder now has a new property allowOrthographicReferencing, specifying whether rasters that are postioned in geodetic references may be put in approximating orthographic grid references that are centered around the rasters.

    ImprovementTerrain Analysis Engine

    TLcdVVTerrainProfileRenderer displays unknown altitude values with a different color than known altitude values. Before it was not possible to distinguish zero altitude values and unknown altitude values.

    ImprovementTerrain Analysis Engine

    TLcdTerrainProfileController: adding support to show or hide labels corresponding to the different invalid altitude values.

    ImprovementTerrain Analysis Engine

    ALcdRasterTerrainElevationProvider: this class now support different invalid altitude values. The value 'outOfRasterBoundsValue' corresponds to points which lie outside the bounds of the source raster. The value 'unknownElevation' corresponds to elevation values of points for which the raster does not contain a valid raster value, it is not inside the interval [minimumValidRasterValue,maximumValidRasterValue].

    ImprovementTerrain Analysis Engine

    LMAP-1019
    Line-of-sight computations now support pluggable propagation functions. Four propagation functions are provided:
    • com.luciad.tea.TLcdLOSRadarPropagationFunction to compute visual or radar line of sight on an earth modeled as a sphere,
    • com.luciad.tea.TLcdLOSRadarPropagationFunctionSkyBackground to compute where one is visible with sky in the background.
    • com.luciad.tea.TLcdLOSPropagationFunctionFixedHeight to compute the visibility at a given height above the ground,
    Use the factory TLcdLOSCoverageFactory to compute a line-of-sight covering an area around a center point and the factory TLcdP2PCoverageFactory to compute a point-to-point line-of-sight between two points. More information can be found in the developer guide and the API reference documentation.

    ImprovementWeather & Environment Standards

    Added a new decoder com.luciad.format.grib.TLcdGRIBBulletinModelDecoder, for decoding GRIB bulletin files. The GRIB messages are concatenated in the bulletin files, with optional headers. They can be filtered based on these headers and on the model descriptors, references, and bounds.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The MIL-STD 2525b implementation has received a major upgrade to comply with MIL-STD 2525b Change 1 2004, the most recent specification. In this context, the rendering of a set of corresponding APP-6A symbols has been improved also.

    The most important changes in the Change 1 specification are:
    • An extension of the available affiliations with EXERCISE PENDING, EXERCISE UNKNOWN, EXERCISE ASSUMED FRIEND, EXERCISE FRIEND and EXERCISE NEUTRAL
    • The addition of a general warfighting symbol, S*Z*------***** (1.X), with unknown battle dimension.
    • The expansion of the symbol 'Drone' (1.X.2.1.1.16) with a large set of child symbols.
    • A new symbol category 'Dead Reckoning Trailer' (2.X.2.1.1.2.5).
    • A new symbol category 'Area of Uncertainty' (2.X.2.1.1.2.6).
    • A new symbol category 'Wreck' (2.X.6.3.1.3).
    • A vast expansion of the symbol category 'Fire support' (2.X.4).
    • A major expansion of the weather/metoc symbology, with 291 new symbols
    Next to this list, various other small improvements have been made to comply with Change 1.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The calculation of the label bounds for multipoint symbols (2 points or more) in APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b has been enhanced to obtain a better accuracy. This improves the behavior of a label decluttering algorithm, which generally uses the label bounds to declutter the labels.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The rendering of the following weather symbols in APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b has been improved:
    • The frontal systems, the trough line symbol and the squal line symbol in APP-6A (located in 'Weather' - 'Pressure Systems') and in MIL-STD 2525b (located in 'Metoc' - 'Atmospheric' - 'Pressure Systems') are now rendered using the 'cornerSmoothness' property of the symbol's style, to obtain a curved polyline which better reflects the nature of a pressure system. By using 0 as value for this property, the original rendering with straight corners can still be reinstated.
    • The icon symbol 'Wind Plot/Barb' in MIL-STD 2525b (3.X.3.1.4.2) and APP-6A (3.X.4) is now rendered dynamically: it uses the modifiers 'Movement Direction' (ILcdMS2525bCoded.sMovementDirection, ILcdAPP6ACoded.sMovementDirection) and 'Speed' (ILcdMS2525bCoded.sSpeedLabel, ILcdAPP6ACoded.sSpeedLabel) to better reflect the actual wind condition. The 'Movement Direction' modifier is used to specify a wind direction in degrees, while the 'Speed' modifier is used to specify the wind speed in knots; these modifiers respectively define the orientation and decoration of the wind barb icon.
    • The symbols 'Rain' (APP-6A: 3.X.7.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 3.X.3.1.7.1), 'Snow' (APP-6A: 3.X.7.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 3.X.3.1.7.1), 'Hail' (APP-6A: 3.X.7.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 3.X.3.1.7.1), 'Ice pellets' (APP-6A: 3.X.7.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 3.X.3.1.7.1) and 'Ice crystals' (APP-6A: 3.X.7.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 3.X.3.1.7.1) are now rendered as areas (also using the 'cornerSmoothness' property of the symbol's style), which better reflects the nature of the symbol.

    Bug fixLuciadFusion

    The warping raster painters no longer throw a NullPointerException when the clipping rectangle has zero width or height.

    Bug fixLuciadFusion

    A problem with the printing of dashed and complex strokes, caused by a bug in the Sun graphics implementation, was solved. Dashed and complex strokes are now rendered correctly on printing devices.

    TLcdGXYBoundsPainter no longer changes the dimensions of a bounds when the bounds is moved over the north- or south pole.

    Bug fixAdvanced GIS Engine

    A bug in the line-arc intersection algorithm was fixed. Some intersection points between arcs and linear shapes (polyline, polygon, buffer) which were not detected previously, will be computed correctly now.

    Bug fixAviation Standards

    TLcdProcedureGeometryCalculator now respects the turn direction specified in procedure legs wherever possible. In previous versions, the turn direction would in some cases be ignored in favour of the shortest turn (i.e. the turn requiring the smallest course change).

    Bug fixDefense Standards

    TLcdUSRPModelDecoder now correctly decodes TRANSH01.THF files pointing to ADRG datasets.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcdLonLatArcBand and TLcdXYArcBand now throw an IllegalArgumentException when a negative minimum or maximum radius is passed at construction time or via the methods setMinRadius or setMaxRadius.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYPolygonLabelPainter and TLcdGXYPolylineLabelPainter no longer paint a label when the array returned by retrieveLabels is null or of zero length. This is the same behavior as TLcdGXYLabelPainter. The effect of this change will only be visible in extension of the painters which returned such arrays and when the label painter was configured to put a frame around the label, or to fill the label with a background color. To regain the previous behaviour it suffices to return an array with a non zero length, containing empty Strings.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    TLcdGXYPointListPainter now checks the painter mode (polygon, polyline, ... ) before removing points. Point lists painted in POLYGON, FILLED or OUTLINED FILLED mode can not have the 2nd but last point removed, point lists in POLYLINE mode can not have the one but last point removed and point lists in POINT mode can not have the last point removed. Before this change the default behavior was to allow removal of all points except the last one. To reinstate that behavior overwrite the method retrieveMinimalPointcount in TLcdGXYPointListPainter to always return 1.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    com.luciad.util.ILcdRotationCapable has be deprecated in favor of com.luciad.view.gxy.ILcdRotationCapableGXYView, since it was only used in the context of views. Since the new interface extends the old interface, no problems should arise with existing code. All view implementations that implemented ILcdRotationCapable, now implement ILcdRotationCapableGXYView. Take into account that new code may be written against the new interface and will not work for ILcdRotationCapable implementations. To avoid this, replace all ILcdRotationCapable occurences by ILcdRotationCapableGXYView.

    Upgrade considerationTerrain Analysis Engine

    TLcdVVTerrainProfileModel: the methods minZ and maxZ can return a Double.NaN, a Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY or a Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY when invalid elevations are found.

    Upgrade considerationDefense Symbology

    A set of MIL-STD 2525b symbols have received a new unique code in the MIL-STD 2525b Change 1 2004 specification. To ease the upgrade to Change 1, the old codes can still be used in TLcdEditableMS2525bObject: when an old code is detected, it will be automatically converted to the correct MIL-STD 2525b Change 1 2004 code. Note that the method getMS2525Code() always returns the new code in that case. The following list shows all updated symbols, including their old and new hierarchy position and name - which are also changed for some symbols:

    The class TLcdEditableMS2525bObject in the MIL-STD 2525b API previously accepted symbol codes that represented directories, because they are defined in the MIL-STD 2525b specification. These codes are now listed as invalid, because they do not represent a real symbol and cannot be drawn on map: when such a code is now set on a TLcdEditableMS2525bObject, an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown, as this was the default behavior for other invalid codes. This behavior was already present for APP-6A.

    These changes mostly affect the com.luciad.view.gxy and com.luciad.view.gxy.controller package. Following interfaces have been extended:

    In addition, there are new select and edit controllers that can select and manipulate these editable labels: com.luciad.view.gxy.TLcdGXYSelectController2 and com.luciad.view.gxy.TLcdGXYEditController2. The old select and edit controllers were not modified to work with these editable labels.

    TLcdConcurrentBuffer is a new implementation of ILcdBuffer that is suitable for concurrent access from multiple threads. It should be used instead of TLcdBuffer in all multi-threaded applications. This is typically done by plugging an instance of TLcdConcurrentBuffer into TLcdSharedBuffer.setBufferInstance or directly into the raster model decoders that require a buffer.

    The class com.luciad.wms.client.model.ALcdWMSNamedLayer has been extended with support for the elements MetadataURL, DataURL and FeatureListURL. Analogously, the class com.luciad.wms.client.model.ALcdWMSNamedLayerStyle has been extended with support for the elements LegendURL, StyleSheetURL and StyleURL. To model these elements, the class TLcdOGCWMSURL has been introduced.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Support has been added to handle multi-dimensional data in the WMS server, as defined by Annex C of the OpenGIS OGC 06-042 Web Map Server Implementation Specification.

    To retrieve dimension information for a layer, the class com.luciad.wms.client.model.ALcdWMSNamedLayer has been extended with two new methods, getDimension(int) and getDimensionCount(). The dimension information itself is modeled as follows:
    • ALcdOGCWMSDimension: represents a dimension definition.
    • TLcdOGCWMSDimensionExtent: represents a set of values or intervals for a dimension.

    To include one or more dimensional parameters in a request, TLcdOGCWMSDimensionWrapper objects must be registered on the active ALcdWMSProxy. A TLcdOGCWMSDimensionWrapper holds a reference to a dimension definition (modeled by ALcdOGCWMSDimension) and the value(s)/interval(s) to be used (modeled by TLcdOGCWMSDimensionExtent). To configure dimensions on a ALcdWMSProxy, the following methods have been introduced:
    • addDimension(ALcdOGCWMSDimension)
    • getDimensionCount()
    • getDimension(int)
    • removeDimension(int)
    • clearDimensions()

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Support has been added to handle multi-dimensional data in the WMS server, as defined by Annex C of the OpenGIS OGC 06-042 Web Map Server Implementation Specification.

    To define a dimension for a layer, the classes ALcdWMSDimension, TLcdWMSDimension and TLcdWMSDimensionExtent have been introduced. ALcdWMSDimension and TLcdWMSDimension represent a dimensional parameter, while TLcdWMSDimensionExtent is used to model the available values for a dimension. The classes ALcdWMSLayer and TLcdWMSLayer have been extended with methods to configure these elements.

    For convenience, the sample XML configuration format to configure the capabilities of a server has been extended with support for dimensions. The decoders for this format, com.luciad.wms.server.config.xml.TLcdWMSCapabilitiesXMLDecoder and samples.wms.server.config.xml.WMSCapabilitiesXMLDecoder, both recognize the XML element 'Dimension' and its contents.

    The source name property of a layer (see getSourceName() in ALcdWMSLayer), is too limited to be used for a layer with one or more dimensions, since the corresponding data source depends not only on the layer name but also on the dimensional parameters supplied by the client. To be able to map an ALcdWMSLayer with one or more dimensional parameters on a data source, the abstract class ALcdMultiDimensionalModelProvider has been introduced. Users must implement this class and register it by overriding the method createModelProvider(ILcdModelDecoderFactory[]) in ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory, to support multi-dimensional layers.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The domain model for the WMS capabilities has been extended to include support for the elements MetadataURL, DataURL and FeatureListURL that can be defined for a layer, and for the elements LegendURL, StylesheetURL and StyleURL that can be defined for a layer style. To model these elements, a new class TLcdWMSURL has been introduced. The classes ALcdWMSLayer, TLcdWMSLayer, ALcdWMSLayerStyle and TLcdWMSLayerStyle have been extended with methods to configure these elements. For consistency, the already supported element AuthorityURL for a layer can now also be modeled using TLcdWMSURL in ALcdWMSLayer and TLcdWMSLayer.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A new interface ILcdWMSOnlineResourceResolver has been introduced, which is used to dynamically resolve the paths to online resources. A default implementation is registered by default, but custom implementations can be used by overriding the method createWMSOnlineResourceResolver(ServletConfig) in ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdXYText and TLcdGXYTextPainter now support multi-line text (i.e., text strings with embedded newline characters).

    TLcdWKTReferenceParser returns TLcdUTMGrid instances for lines that contain the words 'utm zone'.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdGeodeticReference now has methods to set and retrieve the name as a textual representation of the reference.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Two new methods have added to ALcdWMSLayer, which make it possible to retrieve the parent layer:
    • setParentWMSLayer(ALcdWMSLayer): a protected method that can be called to register the parent layer. The default implementation TLcdWMSLayer automatically invokes this method on the child layer when addChildWMSLayer(ALcdWMSLayer) or removeChildWMSLayer(ALcdWMSLayer) is called.
    • getParentWMSLayer(): a public method, allowing to retrieve the currently registered parent layer.

    This functionality is particularly useful to retrieve the layer styles registered on parent layers, because the WMS specification defines that a layer inherits the styles of its parent.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The raster model decoders now provide support for input stream factories.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdEPSGReferenceParser now has support for more EPSG codes. It now supports:
    • references based on a geodetic datum with a meridian shift,
    • geodetic references of which the name is unknown but for which the transformation parameters to WGS84 are known,
    • geodetic references for which the names was not recognized, but one of the aliases for the name is.
    The complete list of supported coordinate references is available from the API documentation of the TLcdEPSGReferenceParser class. To take advantage of this enhancement the lcd_epsg_resources.jar of this release should be put in the classpath.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The class com.luciad.wms.client.model.ALcdOGCWMSCapabilities has been extended with three new methods to retrieve extra information about the capabilities of an SLD-enabled Web Map Service:
    • getDescribeLayerURL(): returns the URL prefix that must be used for DescribeLayer requests.
    • getGetLegendGraphicURL(): returns the URL prefix that must be used for GetLegendGraphic requests.
    • getSupportedLegendGraphicFormatCount(): returns the number of supported legend graphic formats by a Web Map Service.
    • getSupportedLegendGraphicFormat(int): returns the supported legend graphic format at a given index.
    Note that there are no methods to retrieve the supported formats for the DescribeLayer request, because the SLD specification defines the MIME type application/vnd.ogc.wms_xml as the only available response format for WMS 1.1.1 - 1.3.0.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Support has been added for two new requests: GetLegendGraphic and DescribeLayer. The GetLegendGraphic request provides a general mechanism for acquiring legend symbols. The DescribeLayer request allows a client to obtain feature/coverage-type information for a named layer, which can be used to construct user-defined styles. Both requests are defined by the OpenGIS OGC 02-070 Styled Layer Descriptor Implementation Specification, and are considered optional for an SLD-enabled WMS.

    To provide support for these requests in a WMS implementation, the factory methods createWMSGetLegendGraphicEncoders(ServletConfig) and createWMSDescribeLayerEncoders(ServletConfig) in ALcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcherFactory must be implemented. These methods should return respectively one or more ILcdWMSGetLegendGraphicRequestEncoder and ILcdWMSDescribeLayerRequestEncoder objects, which are responsible for sending a response to the client. Next, the available legend graphic and describe layer formats must be listed in the ALcdWMSCapabilities object created by the ILcdWMSCapabilitiesDecoder in ALcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcherFactory.

    Because the OpenGIS OGC 02-070 Styled Layer Descriptor Implementation Specification defines a default XML format for DescribeLayer responses, an implementation of ILcdWMSGetLegendGraphicRequestEncoder, ALcdWMSDescribeLayerRequestEncoder, is also available. This abstract class implements the methods defined in ILcdWMSGetLegendGraphicRequestEncoder, and adds some extra abstract methods that are needed to construct a correct DescribeLayer response. Encoders that want to use the default XML format should extend from this abstract class.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The 'Air Corridor' symbol in MIL-STD 2525b (G*G*ALC---****X, 2.X.2.2.2.1) didn't have any labels. In accordance with the MIL-STD 2525b Change 1 2004 specification, it will now use the 'Unique Designation' modifier (ILcdMS2525bCoded.sUniqueDesignation, ILcdAPP6ACoded.sUniqueDesignation) to draw two labels, one above the axis and one below the axis of the symbol. By using the separator character ':' in the modifier ILcdAPP6ACoded.sUniqueDesignation / ILcdMS2525bCoded.sUniqueDesignation, one can create these two labels: the text before ':' will be used above the axis, the other part of the text will be used below the axis of the symbol.

    Furthermore, the rendering quality of the labels of this symbol and related symbols in the group Aviation Lines (MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.2.2, APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.2.2) has been improved.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The movement direction arrow of MIL-STD 2525b and APP-6A icon symbols (ILcdMS2525bCoded.sMovementDirection, ILcdAPP6ACoded.sMovementDirection) was not taken into account in the bounds calculation performed by the painter.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The echelon restrictions in the MIL-STD 2525b and APP-6A customizer for Special Operations Forces (SOF) units (1.X.6) have been diminished. All echelons except for echelons of the type 'INSTALLATION' are now applicable.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    It is now possible in APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b to render a limited set of arrows with more than two points:
    • Axis of Advance for Feint (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.3.2, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.3.2)
    • Friendly Aviation (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.5.2.1.1)
    • Friendly Airborne (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.2, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.5.2.1.2)
    • Friendly Attack Helicopter (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.3, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.5.2.1.3)
    • Friendly Ground Axis of Supporting Attack (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.4, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.5.2.1.4.2)
    • Friendly Ground Axis of Main Attack (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.5, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.5.2.1.4.1)
    • Friendly Ground Axis On Order (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.6)
    • Enemy Confirmed (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.2.1.7)

    When more than two points are used, the arrow is smoothly rendered through the specified points. The amount of smoothness can be controlled through the methods setCornerSmoothness(double), getCornerSmoothness() in ILcdAPP6AStyle and ILcdMS2525bStyle.

    In the past, special functionality was introduced to allow aviation-related arrows in APP-6A (situated in 2.X.2.1.5.2.1) and MIL-STD 2525b (situated in 2.X.2.5.2.1) to be painted curved. As these arrows were still limited to have only two points at that time, an arrow curvedness property was introduced (setArrowCurvedness(double) and getArrowCurvedness() in ILcdAPP6AStyle and ILcdMS2525bStyle) to control whether the arrow must be painted straight or curved. This functionality is still working, and does not conflict with the possibility to add more than two points. When more than two points are used, the arrow curvedness property is not taken into account. Instead, the arrow is smoothly rendered through the specified points by using a corner smoothness property, as described above.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The icon repository that is used by APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b has been completely redesigned, resulting in a major quality improvement. Especially on small scales, the new icons provide a lot more detail.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The rendering of the dashed line of framed icons with Anticipated/Planned status in MIL-STD 2525b and APP-6A has been improved.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The outlined versions of Spacetrack, Airtrack and Subsurface icons in MIL-STD 2525b and APP-6A were not rendered entirely correct, due to a redundant line that was present at the bottom (Spacetrack/Airtrack) or at the top (Subsurface) of the icon.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    The APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b samples have each been extended with a new class, respectively APP6AImageObjectIconProvider and MS2525bImageObjectIconProvider, which allow to apply image-caching on the icon symbols. This can greatly enhance the performance when a lot of symbols must be drawn.

    • All S-57 model descriptors (TLcdS57ModelDescriptor, TLcdS57CatalogueModelDescriptor, TLcdS57LevelModelDescriptor) now implement the ILcdFeaturedDescriptorProvider interface, being able now to return an ILcdFeaturedDescriptor for each S-57 object in the model.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    The S-57 package now provides extra information about object and attribute classes. TLcdS57AttributeClassDescriptor (and derivatives) and TLcdS57ObjectClassDescriptor can be used to retrieve the class code, acronym, type and other meta information, as defined in the S-57 specification. The following other classes were changed:
    • New iplementations of ILcdS57AttributeClassMap and ILcdS57ObjectClassMap are made available in the API, offering extra methods for retrieving attribute and object class descriptors.
    • A TLcdS57AttributeClassMap needs to be set on the TLcdS57ObjectClassMapDecoder now, for linking attribute descriptors to object descriptors.
    • TLcdS57Attribute, TLcdS57Identifier and TLcdS57EditableIdentifier now provide extra methods for retrieving attribute and object class descriptors
    • A TLcdS57ObjectClassMap and TLcdS57AttributeClassMap need to be set on the TLcdS57(Catalogue)ModelDecoder now, to provide all available S-57 object and attribute class definitions to the model decoder.

    Where possible, the cloneAs...() methods in the classes contained in the packages com.luciad.shape.shape2D and com.luciad.shape.shape3D now rely on the clone() method. This will only influence code that (erroneously) assumes a specific type for the returned object, for example, it assumes that TLcdLonLatHeightBounds.cloneAs2DEditableBounds() returns a TLcdLonLatBounds object. The following methods have been updated:

    The interfaces ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoder and ILcdRemoteOWSModelProvider have been updated to enable implementations to return an ILcdModel array instead of a single ILcdModel:
    • ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoder.decode(): the return type is now ILcdModel[] instead of ILcdModel
    • ILcdRemoteOWSModelProvider.getModel(): the return type is now ILcdModel[] instead of ILcdModel
    This is done to support Styled Layer Descriptors that combine multiple coverages (WCS) or feature types (WFS) into one user-defined layer. Implementations can decode each coverage or feature type into a single ILcdModel. This is especially needed when these coverages or feature types use different model references, since an ILcdModel can only have one model reference.

    The abstract class ALcdSLDWMSGXYLayerFactory has been adapted accordingly: the signature of the method
    • abstract public ILcdGXYLayer createGXYLayer( ILcdModel, TLcdSLDUserLayer, TLcdSLDFeatureTypeStyle[] );
    has changed into
    • abstract public ILcdGXYLayer[] createGXYLayer( ILcdModel[], TLcdSLDUserLayer, TLcdSLDFeatureTypeStyle[] );
    to allow implementations to create an ILcdGXYLayer for each decoded ILcdModel that is part of a user-defined layer.

    As stated in the enhancements section, LuciadMap now supports freely placeable labels. In order for your projects to take full advantage of this feature, several guidelines must be followed.

    All classes that use any of the methods in ILcdGXYLabelPainter should be made aware that these label painters could also implement ILcdGXYLabelPainter2. If these label painters also implement ILcdGXYLabelPainter2, the Object and the TLcdLabelLocation must be set instead of the Object and the location index.

    All classes that paint labels should inform the ALcdLabelLocations which labels have been painted. For instance implementations of ILcdGXYLayer, ILcdGXYLayerLabelPainter and ILcdGXYViewLabelPainter paint labels, and as such have to inform these ALcdLabelLocations.
    Please refer to the reference documentation of ILcdGXYEditableLabelsLayer, ILcdGXYLabelPainter2 and ALcdLabelLocations for more detailed information.

    If these guidelines are not followed, your application will behave as if there are no editable labels.

    The implementations of ILcdModel have been improved for concurrent access from multiple threads. Their levels of thread-safety are documented in the API documentation. Notably, TLcd2DBoundsIndexedModel now allows concurrent read-only access. The method applyOnInteracts2D is no longer explicitly synchronized, allowing multiple threads to access the model concurrently. This change may be incompatible if any code explicitly or implicitly relies on this synchronization. If so, one can set system properties that are defined in the API documentation to revert to the old behavior. Concurrent read-write access is still only possible with external synchronization. Please consult the developer guide for more details.

    The implementations of ILcdShape - except for all *Float* classes - in com.luciad.shape, com.luciad.shape.shape2D and com.luciad.shape.shape3D have received consistent implementations of the methods clone, equals, hashCode, and toString.

    Notably, the method clone now always delegates to the method super.clone, which ensures that a class of the proper type is created, even for extensions. The behavior of clone is kept as much the same as before as possible, especially regarding the choice between a deep clone and shallow clone. The javadoc of the clone method in the updated ILcdShape implementations can be consulted for the exact clone behavior.

    The methods equals and hashCode now always compare the classes and the properties of the shapes (like coordinates, radius, height, etc).

    As with any class that implements equals and hashcode based on object properties, the implications may catch unsuspecting developers by surprise. A common example is a point that is put in a hash table. If its coordinates are changed after it has been put in the hash table, its identity and, more specifically, its hash code changes. It then becomes impossible to retrieve the point based on its hash code. This usually leads to NullPointerExceptions, as null is returned instead of the object. Another example is points only being equal if their classes are equal. A final example is the confusion caused by extensions of the basic shape implementations that do not properly override the identity methods. Overriding implementations should always delegate to their super versions, adding any necessary code for additional properties. The new implementations in LuciadMap may be incompatible with existing code if the code explicitly or implicitly relies on the previous imperfect implementations.

    The interface ILcdWMSHttpServletRequestFileNameResolver has been removed, due to its limited practical relevance. The two implementations TLcdWMSServiceExceptionDTDDefaultFileNameResolver and TLcdWMSCapabilitiesDTDDefaultFileNameResolver have been removed accordingly.

    • ILcdWMSHttpServletRequestFileNameResolver getWMSCapabilitiesDTDFileNameResolver()
    • setWMSCapabilitiesDTDFileNameResolver(ILcdWMSHttpServletRequestFileNameResolver)
    • ILcdWMSHttpServletRequestFileNameResolver getWMSExceptionDTDFileNameResolver()
    • setWMSExceptionDTDFileNameResolver(ILcdWMSHttpServletRequestFileNameResolver)

    A new class com.luciad.wms.server.TLcdWMSRequestContext has been introduced that holds information about a current request. A number of interfaces in the package com.luciad.wms.server have been adapted to include this class as a parameter in its methods:
    • ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoder.canDecode(): replaced HttpServletRequest parameter with TLcdWMSRequestContext parameter
    • ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoder.decode(): replaced HttpServletRequest parameter with TLcdWMSRequestContext parameter
    • ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoderFactory.createModelDecoder(): replaced HttpServletRequest parameter with TLcdWMSRequestContext parameter
    • ILcdRemoteOWSModelProvider.getModel(): replaced HttpServletRequest parameter with TLcdWMSRequestContext parameter
    Existing implementations just need to update the signature of these methods and can choose whether to use the additional parameter.

    Because the information in TLcdWMSRequestContext can also be useful when encoding GetFeatureInfo responses, a new interface ILcdWMSGetFeatureInfoRequestEncoder has been introduced. This interface is similar to the existing ILcdWMSFeatureInfoRequestEncoder, except for the extra TLcdWMSRequestContext parameter that is added to the encode() method. Accordingly, a factory method createWMSGetFeatureInfoEncoders(ServletConfig) in ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory and a method addWMSGetFeatureInfoEncoder(ILcdWMSGetFeatureInfoRequestEncoder) in TLcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcher have been added. The existing interface ILcdWMSFeatureInfoRequestEncoder and associated methods are still fully functional. Note that registered ILcdWMSGetFeatureInfoRequestEncoder objects have precedence above registered ILcdWMSFeatureInfoRequestEncoder objects, when they have the same content type.

    The class com.luciad.ais.view.gxy.TLcdGXYProcedureTrajectoryLegLabelPainter and the identical sample class samples.ais.view.gxy.TLcdGXYProcedureTrajectoryLegLabelPainter do now implement ILcdGXYMultilabelPainter, since they paint a label at each leg of a procedure. These changes may be incompatible if any code explicitly invokes the labelBoundsSFCT() or paintLabel() method: the current implementation requires to set the label index and sublabel index before invoking these methods.

    The implementations of ILcdShape in com.luciad.ais.shape.** and com.luciad.ais.model.** have received consistent implementations of the methods clone, equals and hashCode. Notably, the method clone now always delegates to the method super.clone, which ensures that a class of the proper type is created, even for extensions. The methods equals and hashCode always compare the classes and the properties of the shapes, like coordinates, height, etc. Note that this may still yield surprising results if extensions don't properly override these implementations, which was already the case in previous versions. These changes may be incompatible if any code explicitly or implicitly relies on previously missing or imperfect implementations.

    To allow better error handling when using the WMS Client API, three new classes have been added that define specific error conditions:
    • TLcdOGCWMSServiceException: represents an IOException that results from an OWS Service Exception Report sent by the WMS server.
    • TLcdOGCWMSHttpException: represents an IOException that results from an invalid HTTP response that was received from a server.
    • TLcdOGCWMSException: represents an IOException, different from an HTTP error or service exception report, that occurred while connecting with a WMS server or while parsing the result.
    These exceptions are thrown by the following methods:
    • TLcdOGCWMSProxyModelDecoder.decode(String): uses the GetCapabilities request to retrieve the capabilities of the server.
    • ALcdWMSProxy.createImageInputStream(int, int, ILcdXYWorldReference, ILcdBounds, Color): uses the GetMap request to retrieve a map.

    The new class TLcdISO19103Measure can be used to represent any measure: a distance measure, a speed measure, ...

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    To provide better support for dynamic WMS server implementations, a number of enhancements haven been implemented:
    • A new interface com.luciad.wms.server.ILcdWMSCapabilitiesUpdater has been introduced which can be used to implement an update strategy for the WMS server. This interface contains one method update(HttpServletRequest), which will be invoked for each incoming request. To register an implementation on the WMS, the new factory method createWMSCapabilitiesUpdater(ServletConfig, TLcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcher, ILcdWMSCapabilitiesDecoder) in ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory must be implemented.
    • A new factory method createModelProvider() has been introduced in ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory, which returns an ILcdModelProvider. In the past, an ILcdModelProvider was created internally and set on the command dispatcher, which made it more difficult to insert a custom ILcdModelProvider implementation.
    • The WMS server sample has been extended with a sample implementation of ILcdWMSCapabilitiesUpdater.
    • The implementation of TLcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcher has been improved in the context of a dynamic WMS:
      • Extra measures have been taken to prevent any inconsistencies while updating the server at runtime.
      • The getWMSCapabilities(HttpServletRequest) will now always return the same ALcdWMSCapabilities object for the same HttpServletRequest object.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    TLcdInputStreamFactory now provides the possibility to specify request properties when opening connections.

    TLcdDMEDModelDecoder now avoids creating bounds that are larger than necessary, for valid DMED files and for malformed DMED files alike.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Performance of the TLcdGXYLayerList.getGXYPainter() and TLcdGXYLayerList.getGXYEditor() methods has been improved; in case multiple sublayers return a valid painter/editor for a given object, all equal (i.e., equals() returns true for all painters/editors), a significant performance improvement might be noticed for large or lazy loaded models. Performance of the TLcdGXYLayerList.selectObject() method has also been improved; the method will stop now as soon as the object to be selected has been found in one of the sublayers (it used to iterate over all sublayers in all cases).

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    Addition of the setSchemaLocationsMap method to the TLcdSLDFeatureTypeStyleEncoder10 class. This method in fact delegates to the underlying XML encoder. The schema locations will be declared in all XML document encoded by the encoder, in the xsi:schemaLocations="namespace schemaLocation ..." attribute of the root element.

    Unknown, invalid and negative raster values are now handled more consistent. Raster values smaller than -20km or larger than 20km are assumed to be invalid. In those cases, an elevation value of Double.NaN is used. Please refer to the class TLcdElevationUtil for more information.

    ImprovementAviation Standards

    The decoders TLcdDAFIFAerodromeDecoder and TLcdDAFIFHeliportDecoder are now capable of decoding respectively airport and heliport communication records (regular records and remark records). These communication records are modeled by com.luciad.ais.model.service.TLcdFeaturedService and are available as a feature for the associated airport/heliport object (by default, this is TLcdFeaturedAerodrome). The corresponding feature name is ILcdDAFIFAerodromeFeature.AERODROME_COMMUNICATIONS. The communication records are decoded by default by TLcdDAFIFAerodromeDecoder and TLcdDAFIFHeliportDecoder. To prevent this, one can exclude ILcdDAFIFAerodromeFeature.AERODROME_COMMUNICATIONS from the list of features through the methods setAirportFeaturesToBeDecoded() and setHeliportFeaturesToBeDecoded() in respectively TLcdDAFIFAerodromeDecoder and TLcdDAFIFHeliportDecoder.

    The supported features for the communication object itself are listed in com.luciad.format.dafif.model.communication.ILcdDAFIFCommunicationFeature. By default, all these features are decoded by TLcdDAFIFAerodromeDecoder and TLcdDAFIFHeliportDecoder. To restrict this list, one can use the new method setCommunicationFeaturesToBeDecoded() in TLcdDAFIFAerodromeDecoder and TLcdDAFIFHeliportDecoder. Finally, the classes TLcdDAFIFAerodromeModelDescriptor and TLcdDAFIFHeliportModelDescriptor have two extra methods, setCommunicationDescriptor() and getCommunicationDescriptor(), that allow to set/retrieve a featured descriptor for the communication object.

All the handlers make use of the general service domain object in AIS (see com.luciad.ais.model.service) to model the communication objects. Decoded models have as model descriptor respectively an instance of TLcdARINCAirportCommunicationModelDescriptor, TLcdARINCHeliportCommunicationModelDescriptor and TLcdARINCEnrouteCommunicationModelDescriptor. The interface ILcdARINCCommunicationFeature represents general features of an ARINC communication object; ILcdARINCAerodromeCommunicationFeature and ILcdARINCEnrouteCommunicationFeature extend this interface to add more specific features for airports/heliports and enroutes.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The com.luciad.format.xml and com.luciad.format.xml.schema packages have been refactored signifantly, influencing also some other packages making use of the XML framework (GML3, SLD, ...):
    • The interface ILcdXMLElementAdapter has been extended with extra methods for visiting an XML element; an XML element can now be inspected by passing an ILcdXMLElementVisitor to the adapter, which will call the visitor for each attribute/content/child element of the XML element being visited.
    • The abstract classes ALcdXMLElementAdapter and ALcdXMLTypedElementAdapter have been removed. They have been replaced by 4 new classes:
      • ALcdXMLIndexBasedElementAdapter
      • ALcdXMLTypedIndexBasedElementAdapter
      • ALcdXMLVisitorBasedElementAdapter
      • ALcdXMLTypedVisitorBasedElementAdapter
      The first two adapters replace the old adapters; extensions of these classes should override the index-based methods (getXXX(index) and getXXXCount()); the visitXXX() methods of these adapters delegate to the index-based methods. The other two adapters work in the opposite direction: extensions of these classes should override the visitor-based methods, and the index-based methods of these adapters delegate to the visitor-based ones. All existing adapter implementations should rename their super class from ALcdXML(Typed)ElementAdapter to ALcdXML(Typed)IndexBasedElementAdapter. New implementations of ILcdXMLElementAdapter should preferably extend one of the two visitor-based adapter classes, since these are easier to implement, less error-prone and more efficient. All existing adapters, available in the LuciadMap API, have beed adjusted to these changes.
    • New editable interfaces have been added for name and object stacks, ILcdXMLEditableNameStack and ILcdXMLEditableObjectStack. The default implementations, TLcdXMLNameStack and TLcdXMLObjectStack, have been updated to implement these interfaces.
    • A default implementation of ILcdXMLDocumentContext, TLcdXMLDocumentContext, has been made available in the API. Interface and implementation have additional startElement() and endElement() methods to control the XML stack depth.
    • A new Exception class has been introduced, TLcdXMLInterruptedException, which can be used to interrupt a running XML call.
    • The method signatures of several classes have been harmonized:
      • ILcdXMLElementAdapterAdapter.getAdapterForObject
      • ILcdXMLElementNameProvider.getElementNameForObject
      • ILcdXMLElementAdapter.getName
      They now all take as arguments a name and object stack, pointing to the parent XML name/object, and an additional name and object, identifying the XML name/object to be inspected/handled.
    • The order in which element name provider and element adapter provider are called by the XML encoder has been changed. The element name provider is no longer called directly by the encoder; all XML element names are retrieved now using the ILcdXMLElementAdapter.getName() method, even that of the root object. This implies that element adapter providers should be able to return element adapters for objects, without knowing the exact XML name. The setElementNameProvider() and getElementNameProvider() methods of the TLcdXMLEncoder class have been deprecated.
    • The ILcdXMLElementNameProvider.getElementNameForObject() method now has an additional TLcdXMLName argument, indicating the XML type to which the returned element name should belong.
    • XML element adapter libraries have been removed from the API. Composite adapter providers should now be constructed using the new TLcdXMLCompositeElementAdapterProvider class. Basic adapter providers for GML3, SLD, and so on, can be registered with a composite adapter provider, to create one large element adapter provider.

    Upgrade considerationLuciadFusion

    The method createColorModel of TLcdSLDSymbolizerPainterfactory has been removed as the color model can now be set in the implementation of ILcdSLDRasterPainterConfigurator.

    The package com.luciad.ogc.filter was extended. It now contains an API and implementation for decoding, encoding, evaluating and representation of OGC filters. The API is based on the OGC 02-059 and 04-095 Filter Encoding Implementation Specification, version 1.0 and 1.1. This specification describes an XML encoding of a system neutral representation of a query predicate. OGC filters are constructs used to constrain the property values of an object type for the purpose of identifying a subset of object instances. The package com.luciad.ogc.filter contains now the following subpackages:
    • com.luciad.ogc.filter.model: contains the domain model to represent OGC filters and expressions
    • com.luciad.ogc.filter.model.capabilities: contains the domain model to represent OGC filter capabilities
    • com.luciad.ogc.filter.xml: contains XML decoding and encoding facilities for OGC filters and filter capabilities. These facilities are built upon the general LuciadMap XML framework.

    The SLD-enabled WMS server now supports GetMap requests that use HTTP XML POST instead of HTTP GET. These type of requests are described in the OGC 02-017r1 Web Map Service Implementation Specification, Part 2: XML for Requests using HTTP POST. Note: servers that use the regular ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory and TLcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcher do not support these types of requests, since SLD support is required to handle them.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    The WMS server now contains support for OpenGIS Styled Layer Descriptors (SLD), as defined in the OGC 02-070 Styled Layer Descriptor Implementation Specification version 1.0. The following classes and packages are added:
    • com.luciad.wms.server.ALcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcherFactory: this abstract class is an extension of the regular ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory that adds support for Styled Layer Descriptors. This class must be implemented by the user to create an SLD capable WMS server. The class samples.wms.server.OGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory in the samples illustrates an example implementation.
    • com.luciad.wms.server.TLcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcher: this class is an extension of the regular TLcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcher that adds support for Styled Layer Descriptors. This class must be used to handle WMS requests in an SLD capable WMS server. The class ALcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcherFactory automatically registers an object of TLcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcher on the servlet to handle all incoming requests.
    • com.luciad.wms.server.ALcdSLDWMSGXYLayerFactory: this abstract class is an implementation of ILcdWMSGXYLayerFactory, that is used by the server to create ILcdGXYLayer instances for all ILcdModels, with or without an SLD model. Implementations can be registered on the WMS server by implementing the method ALcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcherFactory.createSLDWMSGXYLayerFactories(). This method replaces the previously used factory method createWMSGXYLayerFactories(), which is now declared final.
    • com.luciad.wms.server.ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoder, ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoderFactory, ILcdRemoteOWSModelProvider: these interfaces are used in the WMS server to decode ILcdModel objects based on remote data (typically located on a remote WFS or WCS server). Through the method ALcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispatcherFactory.createRemoteOWSModelDecoderFactories(), the user can register one or more ILcdRemoteOWSModelDecoderFactory objects on the WMS server. By default, this method returns null, as this is an optional feature according to the SLD specification..
    • com.luciad.wms.sld.model: contains the domain model for Styled Layer Descriptors. This domain model builts upon the Feature Type Style domain model that is available in the package com.luciad.ogc.sld.model.
    • com.luciad.wms.sld.xml: contains an XML decoder and encoder for Styled Layer Descriptors. Both the decoder and encoder respectively built upon the Feature Type Style decoder and encoder that are available in the package com.luciad.ogc.sld.xml.

    To inform a client about the SLD support of the WMS server, TLcdOGCSLDWMSCommandDispacher uses the XML capabilities document that is sent to the client after a GetCapabilities request:
    • for version 1.1.1 and earlier, the XML capabilities document includes the XML element UserDefinedSymbolization, which is defined by the OpenGIS WMS 1.1.1 Capabilities DTD (see http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.1/WMS_MS_Capabilities.dtd). This element contains some attributes that indicate the SLD support.
    • for version 1.3.0, the OpenGIS WMS 1.3.0 Capabilities XML Schema does not include an SLD related XML element. Therefore, a custom LuciadMap WMS 1.3.0 Capabilities XML Schema is available (see build/wms/resources/schemas/wms/1.3.0/sld_capabilities_1_3_0.xsd), which extends the OpenGIS WMS 1.3.0 Capabilities Schema (see http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.3.0/capabilities_1_3_0.xsd). This extension adds the element UserDefinedSymbolization to the default schema, which was present in the OpenGIS WMS 1.1.1 Capabilities DTD.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A new package, com.luciad.ogc.sld, was added. It contains an API and implementation for decoding, encoding and representation of OpenGIS SLD Feature Type Styles. The API is based on the OGC 02-070 Styled Layer Descriptor Implementation Specification, version 1.0. This specification allows user-defined symbolization of feature data, by determining which features or layers are rendered with which colors or symbols. The package com.luciad.ogc.sld contains the following subpackages:
    • com.luciad.ogc.sld.model: contains the domain model to represent Feature Type Styles.
    • com.luciad.ogc.sld.view.gxy: contains the GXY view representation of the Feature Type Style model applied to ILcdModel objects. The classes in this package enable conversion of a Feature Type Style model/ILcdModel combination into ILcdGXYPainter and ILcdGXYLayer instances which can be used in an ILcdGXYView.
    • com.luciad.ogc.sld.xml: contains an XML decoder and encoder for Feature Type Styles. The decoder and encoder are built upon the general LuciadMap XML framework.

    The WFS has been extended to support most of the WFS 1.1 specification:
    • GetFeature requests support the "resultType" parameter, allowing clients to retrieve the number of features matched by a request without having to retrieve the actual corresponding features.
    • Features can be retrieved in both GML2 and GML3 formats.
    • The OGC Filter 1.1 specification is supported.

    The class com.luciad.wms.server.viewencoder.TLcdGXYViewPNGEncoder, which is used by the WMS to encode images to PNG, has been updated with support for the native codecLib plugin for ImageIO. This plugin delivers a higher performance than the default JAI PNG encoder, which was used in the past. It also allows to control the compression to be used, which makes it possible to determine a trade-off between compression and speed; in contrast, the default JAI PNG encoder always uses best compression. To adjust the compression, the following two methods have been introduced: setCompressionLevel() and getCompressionLevel(). The codecLib plugin requires the installation of some extra libraries, which are available in the LuciadMap_xxx/lib directory in the LuciadMap WMS distribution. The following libraries are needed:
    • clibwrapper_jiio.jar: JAR file containing core JAI Image I/O class files
    • jai_imageio.jar: the codecLib JNI interfaces
    • the codecLib JNI libraries for your platform. The available platforms are Win32 (native/win32/clib_jiio*.dll), Linux i586 (native/linux/libclib_jiio.so), Linux AMD64 (native/linux64/libclib_jiio.so) and Solaris Sparc V9 (native/solaris_sparc/libclib_jiio.so, native/solaris_sparc/sparcv9+vis/libclib_jiio_vis.so or native/solaris_sparc/sparcv9+vis2/libclib_jiio_vis2.so).
    If one of these libraries is not found, the default PNG encoder in JAI will be used again instead of the ImageIO codecLib plugin.

    ImprovementDefense Symbology

    It is now possible in APP-6A and MIL-STD 2525b to render a limited set of arrows (see the list below) with a certain curvedness instead of painting them straight. This is meant to be used for aviation-related arrows, which indicate a certain movement of an aircraft; painting the arrow curved accents this relation. Next to the curved arrows, it is now also possible to render a limited set of areas (see the list below) with rounded corners. This can improve the visibility in some cases and also contributes to a more realistic rendering.

    Currently, the following areas can be painted with rounded corners:
    • Objective area (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.5.3.5, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.5.3.5)
    • Strong point (APP-6A: 2.X.2.2.3.5, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.3.3.5)
    • Battle position (APP-6A: 2.X.2.1.4.1.2.*, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.2.4.3.1 and 2.X.2.4.3.1.1)
    The aviation-related arrows in APP-6A (situated in 2.X.2.1.5.2.1) and MIL-STD 2525b (situated in 2.X.2.5.2.1) can be painted curved.

    To control these new properties, the interfaces com.luciad.symbology.milstd2525b.view.gxy.ILcdMS2525bStyle and com.luciad.symbology.app6a.view.gxy.ILcdAPP6AStyle, and their respective implementations TLcdDefaultMS2525bStyle and TLcdDefaultAPP6AStyle are extended with several new methods:
    • setCornerSmoothness(double), getCornerSmoothness(): this property is used to indicate how much the corners of an area should be rounded. The argument is a number in the interval [0.0, 1.0]. A value of 0.0 indicates no rounding - this is the default value, as it corresponds to the behavior in the past; a value of 1.0 indicates maximum rounding.
    • setArrowCurvedness(double), getArrowCurvedness(): this property is used to control the curvedness of an arrow. The argument is a number in the interval [-1.0, 1.0]. A value of 0.0 indicates no curvedness - this is the default value, as it corresponds to the behavior in the past; a value of -1.0 or 1.0 indicates maximum curvedness, each in an opposite direction perpendicular to the axis of the arrow.

    ILcdWFSFilteredModelFactory:
    • The signature of createFilteredModel() was changed to include an ILcdWFSGetFeatureConstraints argument. ILcdWFSGetFeatureConstraints contains all parameters that can restrict the result of a GetFeature request, including a filter.
    • Filters are passed in as a TLcdOGCFilter object (contained in the ILcdWFSGetFeatureConstraints object) rather than as a JDOM element. Analogously, getFilterCapabilities() must return a TLcdOGCFilterCapabilities rather than a JDOM element.

    The ILcdXMLElement and ILcdXMLElementAdapter interfaces are extended with methods to retrieve attribute and contents based on their names. The ILcdXMLEditableElement interface contains some additional methods for editing an XML element. All implementations of these interfaces are adapted accordingly. Classes extending from TLcdXMLElement or ALcdXMLTypedElementReader will not need to be modified - these two classes offer already default implementations for all new methods. Classes implementing the ILcdXMLElementAdapter interface directly might be refactored to extend the new class ALcdXMLElementAdapter. Other classes, implementing directly one or more of the modified interfaces will need to be adapted.

The script contains also tasks to create WAR files instead of packages.

    The WMS server sample package has been extended with two new packages:
    • samples.wms.server.config.editor: this package contains a new sample representing a graphical configuration editor for the server capabilities.
    • samples.wms.server.config.xml: this package contains the source of a decoder for the server capabilities. This decoder uses the new LuciadMap decoder framework for XML data, available in the package com.luciad.format.xml in LuciadMap. The decoder is used by the samples.wms.server.config.editor sample to load server capabilities files.
    The purpose of this code is to enable WMS server developers to extend the default XML server configuration format without writing a whole new decoder. As in the past, one can use a custom server capabilities decoder in the server by extending the method createWMSCapabilitiesDecoder() in com.luciad.wms.server.ALcdOGCWMSCommandDispatcherFactory.

    A method createWFSCommandDispatcherInstance() has been added to ALcdOGCWFSCommandDispatcherFactory. This method is used to instantiate a TLcdWFSCommandDispatcher. By overriding this method, users can plug in their own extensions of TLcdWFSCommandDispatcher. Also note that this class was final prior to version 6.0; this is now no longer the case.

    There is a new multilevel tiled data format available, called MultiLevelTiled format (MTM). It consists of one Java properties file with the extension ".mtm" and a set of subdirectories, one for each level. Each subdirectory contains a set of files, one for each tile at that level. The number of tiles can be different between levels. Tiles are not required to be in a regular grid and they may overlap. Each tile may have a different data format. At runtime only the visible tiles from the appropriate level are decoded, loaded and cached for future usage.

    The decoder for .mtm files is TLcdMultilevelTiledModelDecoder, which returns a TLcdMultilevel2DBoundsIndexedModel (an already existing model) with a TLcdMultilevelTiledModelDescriptor. Requires Java2. The new MTM data format can be used to display the background data for the world.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A new package, com.luciad.format.gml3, was added. It contains an API and implementation for decoding, encoding and representation of GML data. The API is based on the GML 3.1.0 specification, but the decoder is backwards compatible with older GML version, starting of GML 2.1.2. The decoder is built upon the general LuciadMap XML framework. Custom readers and/or object factories can be plugged into the framework, extending the GML decoder to support custom application schemas.

    ImprovementLuciadFusion

    A new package, com.luciad.format.xml, was added. It offers support for decoding of XML data in an event-driven way, comparable to SAX. The framework allows to plug multiple handlers in the decoder, each dedicated to one or more XML elements.

    The WMS server now supports the UPDATESEQUENCE parameter:
    • The root element of the capabilities that are sent to the client contains an attribute "updateSequence", indicating its current version.
    • The optional UPDATESEQUENCE parameter in a GetCapabilities request will be decoded and compared with the current update sequence value of the capabilities. The response follows the OGC Web Map Service specification.
    Through the API, the update sequence value of the capabilities can be retrieved/updated: the class com.luciad.wms.server.model.ALcdWMSCapabilities has been extended with a method getUpdateSequence(), and its implementation com.luciad.wms.server.model.TLcdWMSCapabilities with a method setUpdateSequence(). The default configuration file decoder com.luciad.wms.server.config.xml.TLcdWMSCapabilitiesXMLDecoder sets an initial update sequence value when it has created a new ALcdWMSCapabilities object. When the capabilities are updated through the API (e.g. adding a new layer), the update sequence value should be updated accordingly, to indicate a new capabilities version.

    A new ILcdARINCHandler implementation has been added to com.luciad.format.arinc.decoder to decode holdings: TLcdARINCHoldingHandler. Decoded models have as model descriptor an instance of com.luciad.format.arinc.model.procedure.TLcdARINCHoldingModelDescriptor. The interface ILcdARINCHoldingFeature represents the features of an ARINC holding object, and the class TLcdARINCHoldingFeatureClassMapper keeps track of their corresponding classes.

    The existing VPF samples are replaced by two new ones, illustrating the use of the new code and API changes in 6.0:
    • The first sample illustrates the basic usage of VPF, i.e., how to set up a VPF model decoder and layer factory, and show some VPF data on a map.
    • The second sample illustrates the use of the new VPF tree and layer manager, included with the samples, and some other VPF functionality (use of the ModelType flag of the VPF decoder, use of GeoSym, auto-bounds mode)

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    A new class, TLcdVPFPainterProvider, was added to the VPF API, enabling the use of VPF in a way similar to other LuciadMap formats, i.e., by setting up a small layer factory that creates a layer and sets a dedicated painter provider on it. A sample layer factory is included with the samples, which should be preferred in new code above the deprecated TLcdVPFLayerFactory class. The new factory implements the ILcdGXYLayerFactory interface, which was missing in the latter one.

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    The elements() method of the VPF on-the-fly model (corresponding to the "empty model" in previous releases), does not return empty enumerations, as the empty model did. Instead, at the moment the model is accessed via its elements() method or via its ILcdIntegerIndexedModel interface, the model shall switch to in-memory mode. This change does not affect existing code, using the deprecated TLcdVPFDatabaseTree or TLcdVPFLayerFactory classes.

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    New sample code was added, containing functionality for
    • showing a VPF database structure in a tree, and letting users make a selection of feature classes of the database
    • synchronizing a selection of feature classes with a view, using a layer manager that adds/removes VPF layers to the view whenever the selection has changed
    This code replaces the VPF tree functionality included in the VPF API. The following classes are from now on deprecated, in favour of the new sample code:
    • TLcdVPFDatabaseTree
    • TLcdVPFDatabasePanel
    • TLcdVPFLayer
    • TLcdVPFLayerFactory
    These classes remain their functionality, but should no longer be used in new code.

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    The MemoryUsage property on the TLcdVPFModelDecoder class has become deprecated, as it wasn't used at all by the decoder (which memory usage model to use, used to be decided at the level of the TLcdVPFDatabaseTree and TLcdVPFLayerFactory). The VPF model decoder now has a property ModelType, which can be used to control the memory usage and performance of a VPF model. It replaces the corresponding functionality in the TLcdVPFDatabaseTree and TLcdVPFLayerFactory classes, as these classes have become depreacted.

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    A number of methods were added to TLcdVPFDatabaseGroup, TLcdVPFDatabase, TLcdVPFLibrary and TLcdVPFFeatureClass, to facilitate browsing through the VPF structure:
    • TLcdVPFDatabaseGroup.getDescription()
    • TLcdVPFDatabase.getLibraries()
    • TLcdVPFDatabase.getLibraries(ILcdBounds)
    • TLcdVPFLibrary.getPathName()
    • TLcdVPFLibrary.getCoverages()
    • TLcdVPFCoverage.getPathName()
    • TLcdVPFFeatureClass.getCoverage()
    The following methods are deprecated in favour of the new ones, but remain their functionality:
    • TLcdVPFLibrary.retrieveLibraries()
    • TLcdVPFLibrary.retrieveLibraries(ILcdBounds)
    • TLcdVPFFeatureClass.getVPFCoverage()

    ImprovementDefense Standards

    All decodeXXX methods of TLcdVPFDatabase and TLcdVPFLibrary are now called automatically the first time they're needed - they no longer have to be called manually by users. These methods are made deprecated, but still remain their functionality, i.e., all existing code should behave as before.

    ImprovementMaritime Standards

    Support for AML (Additionally Military Layers) data was added. AML object and attribute classes are available in the object and attribute class maps.

    ILcd2DEditablePointFactory and ILcd3DEditablePointFactory and their implementations TLcdLonLatPointFactory and TLcdXYPointFactory, and TLcdLonLatHeightPointFactory and TLcdXYZPointFactory, have been removed. The factories were used in TLcd2DEditablePointList/TLcd3DEditablePointList to create new ILcdPoint from coordinates given and could be set with a static method. TLcd2/3DEditablePointList has a protected method create2/3DEditablePoint which by default returns a TLcdXY(Z)Point. This method should be overwritten to simulate setting another ILcd2DEditablePointFactory. In the LuciadMap API this is done in the ALcd2/3DEditablePolyPoint. The extension TLcdLonLatPolypoint (and its extensions TLcdLonLat(Height)Polygon and TLcdLonLat(Height)Polyline) has been adapted to create TLcdLonLat((Height)Point objects on insertion of new points through the coordinates. Since this was the only use of the ILcd2/3DEditablePointFactory in the LuciadMap API, and all extensions of ALcd2/3DEditablePolyPoint have a constructor with an ILcd2/3DEditablePointList parameter, adapting your code consists of constructing the ALcd2DEditablePolyPoint with a TLcd2DEditablePointList that returns the same ILcd2DEditablePoint as your factory would. An example for LonLatPolygons is 
          private class MyLonLatPointFactory implements ILcd2DEditablePointFactory {

      public ILcd2DEditablePoint create2DEditablePoint(double aX, double aY) {
      return new MyLonLatPoint( aX, aY );
      }
      }

      TLcd2DEditablePointList.set2DEditablePointFactory(new MyLonLatPointFactory());

      TLcdLonLatPolygon polygon = new TLcdLonLatPolygon();
    becomes 
          private class MyLonLatPointList extends TLcd2DEditablePointList {

      protected ILcd2DEditablePoint create2DEditablePoint(double aX, double aY) {
      return new MyLonLatPoint( aX, aY );
      }
      }

      TLcdLonLatPolygon polygon = new TLcdLonLatPolygon(new MyLonLatPointList());
    This fix alleviates the user of having to set the point factory for the LuciadMap implementations, which could result in the TLcdLonLatPolygon containing TLcdXYPoint objects, for example.

    The methods createImageInputstream() and createImage() in com.luciad.wms.client.model.ALcdWMSProxy now check whether there are any visible styled named layer objects registered before executing a GetMap request. If not, no request will be sent anymore because this was unnecessary. To provide backwards compatibility, createImage() will return null in that case and createImageInputstream() will throw an IOException, which is in both cases similar to the behaviour when a service exception report is received from the server.

    • Obstacle free area (APP-6A: 2.X.2.2.1.9): This symbol was erroneously painted as a point in the past; it is now painted as an area.
    • Obstacle restricted area (APP-6A: 2.X.2.2.1.9.1): This symbol was erroneously painted as a point in the past; it is now painted as an area.
    • Circular target (APP-6A: 2.X.2.3.1.1.2, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.4.1.1.3): this symbol is now represented as a circle with two points - circle center and circle point indicating the radius - instead of an icon. This makes it possible to change the radius. A label for the modifier ILcdAPP6ACoded.sUniqueDesignation has been added, following MIL-STD 2525b.
    • Fire Support Coordination Line (APP-6A: 2.X.2.3.2.1, MIL-STD 2525b: 2.X.4.2.1): By using the separator character ':' in the modifier ILcdAPP6ACoded.sUniqueDesignation / ILcdMS2525bCoded.sUniqueDesignation, one can create two labels: the text before ':' will be shown before the letters FSCL, while the other part of the text will be shown after the letters PL. Possible label overlappings have been removed.

    com.luciad.metadata.iso19115 and com.luciad.metadata.iso19139 are two new packages which contain implementations for the ISO 19115 standard and ISO 19139 draft on metadata. ISO 19115 contains a comprehensive conceptual description of a metadata which can be associated to a dataset. The package com.luciad.metadata.iso19115 contains a java implementation of this schema. ISO 19139 describes an XML implementation of the ISO 19115 standard and describes how XML files containing metadata information should be structured. The package com.luciad.metadata.iso19139 enables decoding these XML files. As ISO 19139 is not yet an accepted standard this code has to be considered as beta code at least until the ISO 19139 is published as a standard.

    These classes no longer keep a strong reference from the listener they add to an associated object to themselves (requires Java 1.2 or above to be available). The classes are: TLcdModelList, TLcdGXYLayerList, all ILcdGXYView implementations and TLcdLayer (TLcdGXYLayer is extension of TLcdLayer). This simplifies garbage collection of ILcdGXYView objects, ILcdGXYLayer objects, and so on. Prior to this enhancement, users of the API had to explicitly remove an object from its parent. For example, it was needed to use TLcdLayer.setModel( null ) to make sure a layer was garbage collected when the ILcdModel was still used elsewhere.

    These classes now clone their collection of listeners before firing an event: TLcdSelectionSupport, TLcdStatusEventSupport, TLcdGXYOverviewController, TLcdMapGeorefGridLayer, TLcdMapLonLatGridLayer, TLcdUPSGridLayer, TLcdUTMGridLayer, TLcdLayeredSupport and TLcdPropertyChangeDispatcher. This allows listeners to remove themselves while handling an event.

    TLcdTerrainDistanceUtil is a utility class that calculates the distance between two points taking into account the terrain underneath. To this end a terrain elevation provider (ALcdTerrainElevationProvider) and a segment scanner (ILcdSegmentScanner) should be provided.

    All domain objects of the core, such as TLcdXYCircle, TLcdLonLatEllipse and so on, and all optional modules now implement their ILcdCache using weak references to the keys. This allows cleaning up the value if a key is no longer strongly reachable. Although this change is marked incompatible, the actual incompatibilities you experience should be minimal. You will only be affected if you wrote your own code (an ILcdGXYPainter for example) that stores information in the ILcdCache of domain objects using an object as a key that is not strongly referenced elsewhere. For example, if you are using a construct similar to ILcdCache.insertIntoCache( new MyKey(), new MyValue ), you might experience a performance degradation for that specific part. If you use constructs similar to ILcdCache.insertIntoCache( this, new MyValue ), you will not be affected. If needed, the behavior of the caches can be reverted to its original behavior using com.luciad.util.TLcdCache.setUseWeakKeyReferences( false ).

    A new domain object is added to AIS to represent association-based airspaces. These airspaces are built from other airspaces (single or also association-based) using different geometric combinations or association types. The AIXM specification was taken as the basis for this domain object. The basic interface is com.luciad.ais.model.airspace.ILcdAssociationBasedAirspace, which extends from ILcdShapeList. It has an editable extension ILcdEditableAssociationBasedAirspace, a default implementation TLcdAssociationBasedAirspace and a featured extension TLcdFeaturedAssociationBasedAirspace. An association-based airspace contains one or more associations; these associations are represented by a new interface ILcdAirspaceAssociation, which has a default implementation TLcdAirspaceAssociation. An ILcdAirspaceAssociation contains an airspace (single or association-based), an association type and a sequence number. The association type is one of the types defined by the new type safe enumeration class TLcdAirspaceAssociationType. Furthermore, the interface com.luciad.ais.model.airspace.ILcdGenericAirspace is introduced to have a new top-level airspace; the interfaces ILcdAirspace and ILcdAssociationBasedAirspace are extensions from this general interface.

To remain compatible, each implementation of this interface (either directly or through an extension) should provide an implementation for these methods:
    • removeSegment(ILcdRouteSegment) removes the given ILcdRouteSegment object from the route.
    • removeSegmentAt(int) removes the ILcdRouteSegment with the given index from the route.

    Changes to the API parts that were previously available from AIS. These should have been rarely used in applications using ARINC or DAFIF decoders, as they were undocumented. If they were used explicitly in an application, the changes may not be compatible with that application.
    • com.luciad.ais.symbology.TLcdAISDefaultPointPainterSymbolProvider is now a standard ILcdObjectIconProvider. Support for separate selection or snap icons has been removed. This can be implemented by using separate instances of TLcdAISDefaultPointPainterSymbolProvider with different colors.
    • ILcdDomainFactory has been renamed and made into an abstract class ALcdAISDomainObjectFactory.

    ImprovementAviation Standards

    Changes to the DAFIF decoder:
    • Support for object filtering is added. The filter is applied before objects are added to the decoded model. Documentation and sample code for filtering has been added.
    • A TLcdDAFIFProcedureDecoder and TLcdDAFIFIndependentProcedureDecoder was added that decodes procedures from an DAFIF file.
    • Next to the TLcdDAFIFDefaultLayerFactory, a TLcdDAFIFLayerConfiguration class was added. It follows the same idea of specifying a number of style properties for DAFIF data, but can apply them on an exisiting layer.

    The API for AIS is opened up in 4.3. This means that all classes for domain objects, shapes, painters etc. used in AIS are now available in the API. Previous releases only provided a stripped down API for DAFIF (from 4.0) and ARINC (from 4.2) decoders. The availability of the full AIS API enables a more flexible use of DAFIF and ARINC data (e.g. writing custom label painters), and allows the development of AIS based applications that easily show aeronautical data on maps.
