com.luciad.format.shp.TLcdSHPDataTypes

public class TLcdSHPDataTypes
extends Object

This class provides access to the data model of the SHP format. It also supports the creation of new feature types given the names and types of the properties.

Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static TLcdDataType	AbstractFeatureType This type serves as the abstract super type of all SHP feature types.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static TLcdDataModel	createDataModel(int aShapeType, String aDataName, String[] aPropertyNames, Class<?>[] aPropertyClasses) Deprecated. You should not use this, instead, get the data model from a decoded model using ((ILcdDataModelDescriptor) model.getModelDescriptor()).getDataModel().
static TLcdDataModel	getDataModel() Returns the static data model of the SHP format.

Field Detail

AbstractFeatureType

public static final TLcdDataType AbstractFeatureType

This type serves as the abstract super type of all SHP feature types.

Method Detail

getDataModel

public static TLcdDataModel getDataModel()

Returns the static data model of the SHP format.

Returns:

the static data model of the SHP format.

createDataModel

public static TLcdDataModel createDataModel(int aShapeType,
                                            String aDataName,
                                            String[] aPropertyNames,
                                            Class<?>[] aPropertyClasses)

Deprecated. You should not use this, instead, get the data model from a decoded model using ((ILcdDataModelDescriptor) model.getModelDescriptor()).getDataModel().

Creates a new SHP data model. This data model contains a single feature type. This feature type extends from AbstractFeatureType. It will have a property for each entry in property names parameter. The property classes parameter (that should have the same size as the property names parameter) contains the instance classes for the properties. These instance classes are assumed to be basic types for which an appropriate type is defined in TLcdCoreDataTypes.getDataModel(). The shape type corresponds to one of the shape type constants defined by TLcdSHPModelDescriptor.

Parameters:

aShapeType - the shape type

aDataName - the name of the data model

aPropertyNames - the names of the properties

aPropertyClasses - the instance classes of the properties

Returns:

a new data type with a set of properties that correspond to the given parameters
