public class TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider
extends TLcyGenericComposite<ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider>
implements ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider

A composite implementation of ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider according to the composite design pattern.

When creating a new TLcyCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider using the default constructor (see TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider()), the created instance will only work on/with the ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProviders registered on this composite instance (see addLabelPlacementHintProvider(com.luciad.lucy.map.labeling.ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider) and removeLabelPlacementHintProvider(com.luciad.lucy.map.labeling.ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider).

When creating a new TLcyCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider using the constructor specifying an ILcyLucyEnv instance (see TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyLucyEnv), the created instance will work on the Lucy back-end services. It will use all registered ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider instances of the Lucy back-end, adding and/or removing an ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider will add/remove the ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider as service from Lucy, ... .

Creating a TLcyGXYLabelPlacementHint using the back-end based implementation can be done by creating a new instance of this class:

    //Create a new instance whenever you need it.
    TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider provider = new TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider(aLucyEnv);
    TLcyGXYLabelPlacementHint hint = provider.getLabelPlacementHint(aLayer);
    // There is no need to keep a reference to the composite instance, you can create a new one
    // the next time you would need it
    provider = null;

Constructor Detail

TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider

public TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider()

Default constructor.

The created instance will only work on the ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider instances registered to it. If you want to use all registered ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider instances of the Lucy back-end, use TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyLucyEnv) instead.

See Also:

TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyLucyEnv)

TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider

public TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyLucyEnv aLucyEnv)

Construct a TLcyCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider working on the Lucy back-end.

It will use all ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider instances registered to the back-end, and adding and/or removing ILcyLabelPlacementHintProviders to/from this TLcyCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider will respectively add/remove it as service from the back-end.

If you want to create a TLcyCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider which does not use the back-end, use TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider() instead.

Parameters:

aLucyEnv - The Lucy back-end.

TLcyGXYCompositeLabelPlacementHintProvider(), ILcyLucyEnv.addService(Object, int), ILcyLucyEnv.removeService(Object)

Method Detail

addLabelPlacementHintProvider

public void addLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider aLabelPlacementHintProvider)

Adds the given ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider to the list of registered label placement hint providers.

If the constructor specifying an ILcyLucyEnv is used, the ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider will be registered as a service on the Lucy back-end (see ILcyLucyEnv.addService(Object, int)). When calling ILcyLucyEnv.getServices(Class) afterwards, aLabelPlacementHintProvider will only be included in the returned list when the requested class was ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider.class.

Note: if you want to remove the registered ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider afterwards, use removeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider) and not ILcyLucyEnv.removeService(Object).

Parameters:

aLabelPlacementHintProvider - The label placement hint provider to add. Must not be null.

See Also:

removeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider)

removeLabelPlacementHintProvider

public void removeLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider aLabelPlacementHintProvider)

Removes the given ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider from the list of registered label placement hint providers. Nothing will happen if the given factory was never added before.

If the constructor specifying an ILcyLucyEnv is used, the ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider will be removed as service from the Lucy back-end (see ILcyLucyEnv.removeService(Object)).

Note: it is only possible to remove ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider instances which were registered using the addLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider) method.

Parameters:

aLabelPlacementHintProvider - The label placement hint provider to remove. Must not be null.

addLabelPlacementHintProvider(ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider)

getLabelPlacementHint

public TLcyGXYLabelPlacementHint getLabelPlacementHint(ILcdGXYLayer aGXYLayer)

Description copied from interface: ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider

Returns a label placement hint for the specified layer. If a label placement hint provider cannot determine a label placement hint for the specified layer, null should be returned.

Specified by:

getLabelPlacementHint in interface ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider

Parameters:

aGXYLayer - the layer for which we wish to retrieve a label placement hint.

Returns:

an label placement hint if the provider knows it, null otherwise.

See Also:

TLcyGXYLabelPlacementHint

getLabelPlacementHintProviderCount

public int getLabelPlacementHintProviderCount()

Returns the number of registered ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider instances.

Returns:

the number of registered ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider instances.

getLabelPlacementHintProvider

public ILcyGXYLabelPlacementHintProvider getLabelPlacementHintProvider(int aIndex)

Returns the ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider at index aIndex.

Parameters:

aIndex - The index: 0 <= aIndex < getLabelPlacementHintProviderCount()

Returns:

the ILcyLabelPlacementHintProvider at index aIndex.
