com.luciad.format.gml2.xml.TLcdGML2ModelDecoder

All Implemented Interfaces:

ILcdInputStreamFactoryCapable, ILcdModelDecoder

public class TLcdGML2ModelDecoder
extends ALcdXMLModelDecoder

This model decoder decodes Geography Markup Language (GML) version 2.x.

Input files

File	Required	Entry point	Description
*.gml, *.gml2, *.xml	x	x	GML 2.x data file
*.xsd	x		Application schema (XML Schema)

Supported file transfer protocols

• This model decoder supports all transfer protocols that are supported by the ILcdInputStreamFactory of this decoder.

Model structure

• This model decoder creates a model per GML file.
• All models returned by this model decoder implement ILcd2DBoundsIndexedModel.
• Hierarchic feature collections are decoded as a hierarchical ILcdModelTreeNode structure.
For example, the following document:

      <my:featureCollectionA>
        <my:featureCollectionB>
        <my:featureA>
          ...
        </my:featureA>
        </my:featureCollectionB>
        <my:featureCollectionC>
        <my:featureB>
          ...
        </my:featureB>
        </my:featureCollectionC>
        <my:featureC>
          ...
        </my:featureC>
      </my:featureCollectionA>
     

will be decoded as the followed model/element structure:

       ILcdModelTreeNode (myFeatureCollectionA)
        +- ILcdModelTreeNode (myFeatureCollectionB)
        |   +- ILcdShape (myFeatureA)
        +- ILcdModelTreeNode (myFeatureCollectionC)
        |   +- ILcdShape (myFeatureB)
        +- ILcdShape (myFeatureC)
     

Model descriptor

• All models returned by this model decoder have a TLcdGML2ModelDescriptor.
• The type name of the model descriptor is the display name of this decoder.

Model reference

• This model decoder supports all model references which can be parsed by the TLcdOGCModelReferenceParser.
• This model decoder retrieves its model references from the srsName attribute specified within the GML files. The first coordinate reference system (CRS) that is encountered is used as the model reference. Geographic data defined in other CRS'es are transformed during decoding to this model reference CRS.

Model elements

All domain objects used within this library implement ILcdDataObject. The ILcdDataObject structure of each domain object is defined by the rules described in the default XML Schema - ILcdDataObject Mapping specification.

In addition, the following mapping applies:

AbstractFeatureCollectionType	com.luciad.shape.ILcdShapeList com.luciad.shape.shape3D.ILcd3DEditableShape com.luciad.model.ILcd2DBoundsIndexedModel com.luciad.model.ILcdIntegerIndexedModel com.luciad.model.ILcdModelTreeNode

PointType	com.luciad.shape.shape3D.ILcd3DEditablePoint
PolygonType	com.luciad.shape.ILcdComplexPolygon com.luciad.shape.ILcdEditableSurface

Useful settings

• an EntityResolver2 can be configured on this model decoder, to control how to resolve external entities (such as XSD schemas). By default, an entity resolver is configured which resolves references to all OGC schemas supported by LuciadLightspeed.

Alternative decoding methods

This decoder can also be used to directly decode a file containing a single feature or a single geometry.

Sample code

 ILcdModelDecoder decoder = new TLcdGML2ModelDecoder();
 ILcdModel model = decoder.decode("world.gml2");
 

Thread safety

• The decoding of models is thread-safe, as long as no properties are changed during the decoding.
• The decoded models are thread-safe for read access.

Supported versions and specifications

• GML 2.x

Since:

9.0

Constructor Detail

TLcdGML2ModelDecoder

public TLcdGML2ModelDecoder()

Creates a new TLcdGML2ModelDecoder, ready to use.

TLcdGML2ModelDecoder

public TLcdGML2ModelDecoder(TLcdDataModel aDataModel)

Constructs a new TLcdAIXM5ModelDecoder for the given data model.

Parameters:

aDataModel - the data model for which this decoder should be configured

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the data model does not depend on the GML 2 data model

Method Detail

setEntityResolver

public void setEntityResolver(EntityResolver2 aEntityResolver)

Description copied from class: ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Sets the org.xml.sax.ext.EntityResolver2 to be used for creating input sources for XSD schemas.

When the entity resolver is unable to find a schema (i.e. the resolveEntity method returns null), the ALcdXMLModelDecoder.getInputStreamFactory() is used to create an appropriate input stream for the given system id of the schema.

Parameters:

aEntityResolver - the entity resolver to be used for creating input sources for XSD schemas.

canDecodeSource

public boolean canDecodeSource(String aString)

Description copied from interface: ILcdModelDecoder

Checks whether this model decoder can decode the specified data source. It is acceptable for this method to return true for a source name while decode throws an exception for that same source name.

For performance reasons, we strongly recommend that this will only be a simple test. For example: check the file extension of a file, but not that the file exists or contains expected content.

Specified by:

canDecodeSource in interface ILcdModelDecoder

Parameters:

aString - the data source to be verified; typically a file name or a URL.

Returns:

true if this decoder can likely decode the data specified by the source name, false otherwise.

See Also:

ILcdModelDecoder.decode(String), ILcdModelDecoder.decodeModelMetadata(String)

decode

public ILcdModel decode(String aSourceName)
                 throws IOException

Description copied from interface: ILcdModelDecoder

Creates a new model from the given data source.

Parameters:

aSourceName - the data source to be decoded; typically a file name or a URL.

Returns:

A model containing the decoded data. While null is allowed, implementors are advised to throw an error instead.

Throws:

IOException - for any exceptions caused by IO problems or invalid data. Since decoding invalid data almost always results in RunTimeExceptions (NullPointerException, IndexOutOfBoundsException, IllegalArgumentException, ...) on unexpected places, implementations are advised to catch RuntimeExceptions in their decode() method, and wrap them into an IOException, as illustrated in the code snippet below.

   public ILcdModel decode( String aSourceName ) throws IOException {
      try (InputStream input = fInputStreamFactory.createInputStream(aSourceName)) {
         // Perform decoding ...
      } catch (RuntimeException e) {
         throw new IOException(e);
      }
   }
 

InterruptedIOException - When the thread on which this method is called is interrupted: it is recommended to stop the decoding and throw an InterruptedIOException. This same exception can also be used if the decoder shows UI to the user, and the user cancels the decoding through the UI.

ILcdModelDecoder.canDecodeSource(String)

getDisplayName

public String getDisplayName()

Description copied from interface: ILcdModelDecoder

Returns a short, displayable name for the format that is decoded by this ILcdModelDecoder.

Returns:

the displayable name of this ILcdModelDecoder.

getEntityResolver

public EntityResolver2 getEntityResolver()

Description copied from class: ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns the org.xml.sax.ext.EntityResolver2 that is used for creating input sources for XSD schemas. This entity resolver will only be used to resolve extension schemas that are not already configured on this decoder.

Specified by:

getEntityResolver in class ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns:

the entity resolver to be used for creating input sources for XSD schemas.

getInputStreamFactory

public ILcdInputStreamFactory getInputStreamFactory()

Description copied from class: ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns the ILcdInputStreamFactory that is used for creating input streams.

Specified by:

getInputStreamFactory in interface ILcdInputStreamFactoryCapable

Specified by:

getInputStreamFactory in class ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns:

the ILcdInputStreamFactory that is used for creating input streams.

getXMLInputFactory

public XMLInputFactory getXMLInputFactory()

Description copied from class: ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns the javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory that is used by this decoder for creating javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader instances.

Specified by:

getXMLInputFactory in class ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns:

the javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory that is used by this decoder for creating javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader instances.

isUseApplicationSchemaCache

public boolean isUseApplicationSchemaCache()

Description copied from class: ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns if application schemas are cached. When application schemas are cached, the decoder caches all applications schemas it encounters. When a certain schema is referenced during decoding, only if the schema is not found in the cache, it will be resolved. The default is not to cache.

Note that in case multiple application schemas use the same namespace URI, it is not possible to turn on application schema caching because the decoder will not be able to discern between the different schemas.

Specified by:

isUseApplicationSchemaCache in class ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Returns:

if application schemas are cached

setInputStreamFactory

public void setInputStreamFactory(ILcdInputStreamFactory aInputStreamFactory)

Description copied from class: ALcdXMLModelDecoder

Sets the ILcdInputStreamFactory to be used for creating input streams. If the configured entity resolver implements ILcdInputStreamFactoryCapable, it is also configured with this factory.

Specified by:

setInputStreamFactory in interface ILcdInputStreamFactoryCapable

Specified by:
