com.luciad.view.lightspeed.layer.ILspLayer.LayerType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ILspLayer.LayerType>

Enclosing interface:

ILspLayer

public static enum ILspLayer.LayerType
extends Enum<ILspLayer.LayerType>

Provides hints about the type of a given ILspLayer. These hints may be used by an ILspView, e.g. to determine default layer ordering or to perform certain optimizations.

Since:

2012.0

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
BACKGROUND Indicates that the layer contains static data which is rarely or never modified.
EDITABLE Indicates that the layer contains data which is largely static but which may be manipulated more elaborately by the application user.
INTERACTIVE Indicates that the layer contains data which is largely static but which may be manipulated by the application user.
REALTIME Indicates that the layer contains fully dynamic data.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description

Enum Constant Detail

BACKGROUND

public static final ILspLayer.LayerType BACKGROUND

Indicates that the layer contains static data which is rarely or never modified. Changes to the layer's visibility, its position in the view's layer hierarchy or its styling may incur a non-negligible performance cost.

INTERACTIVE

public static final ILspLayer.LayerType INTERACTIVE

Indicates that the layer contains data which is largely static but which may be manipulated by the application user. Examples include layers that are switched on and off frequently or layers whose styling changes often.

EDITABLE

public static final ILspLayer.LayerType EDITABLE

Indicates that the layer contains data which is largely static but which may be manipulated more elaborately by the application user. Examples include vector data which can be graphically edited.

REALTIME

public static final ILspLayer.LayerType REALTIME

Indicates that the layer contains fully dynamic data. This is typically used for data with a temporal dimension, i.e. which changes over time even without user intervention.

Method Detail

values

public static ILspLayer.LayerType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (ILspLayer.LayerType c : ILspLayer.LayerType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ILspLayer.LayerType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
