Class TLcdARINCControlledAirspaceHandler

java.lang.Object
com.luciad.format.arinc.decoder.TLcdARINCControlledAirspaceHandler
All Implemented Interfaces:
ILcdARINCHandler
public class TLcdARINCControlledAirspaceHandler extends Object
This extension of the ALcdARINCHandler interface deals with Controlled Airspace records (Controlled Airspace Primary Records, section code U, subsection code C). Decoded models have as model descriptor an instance of TLcdARINCControlledAirspaceModelDescriptor.

The objects in decoded models are based on the AIS domain objects available in com.luciad.ais.model, which all implement ILcdDataObject. This interface provides a generic and format-independent way of accessing the type and properties (features) of a domain object.

For this handler, the type of the decoded objects is TLcdARINCDataTypes.Airspace, which can also be retrieved through ILcdDataObject.getDataType(). The available properties of the objects are defined in TLcdARINCAirspaceDataProperties. The values for these properties can be retrieved through ILcdDataObject.getValue(com.luciad.datamodel.TLcdDataProperty).

Next to ILcdDataObject, the objects in decoded models also implement ILcdFeatured, the former interface to access the properties (features) of a domain object. This is still fully supported, and explained in the following comments.

The setAirspaceFeatureNamesToBeDecoded method allows the user to specify which ARINC features are decoded into the featured model objects.

If no feature names to be decoded are specified, all features will be decoded.

The following fields (taken from the ARINC specification 424) are supported by the decoder. The list indicates into which feature the fields are decoded. It also indicates from which ARINC version on they are available.

  • Version 17, 18 : no extra fields added.

ARINC handlers rely on a specific set of key features that uniquely define an object. This set of features must always be included in the set of features to be decoded. For controlled airspaces the key features are:

    • handleRecord

      public void handleRecord(char[] aRecord)
      Description copied from interface: ILcdARINCHandler
      Deals with one record of ARINC data.

      Each implementation of the ILcdARINCHandler interface decides by itself whether to use the information found in the given record to create or modify a domain object, or to do nothing at all.

      Typically, this method will be called when looping through the records of a data source.

      The domain objects created or modified when calling this method will be stored in a model. The user can obtain this model by calling the getModel method.

      Parameters:
      aRecord - the record to deal with created with data from the given record in

      Returns:
      true if tracing is enabled for this class, false otherwise.

    • setClassTraceOn

      public static void setClassTraceOn(boolean aTraceOn)
      Deprecated.
      This method has been deprecated. It is recommended to use the standard Java logging framework directly.
      Enables tracing for all instances of this class. If the argument is true then all log messages are recorded, otherwise only the informative, warning and error messages are recorded.
      Parameters:
      aTraceOn - if true then all log messages are recorded, otherwise only the informative, warning and error messages are recorded.

    • setTraceOn

      public void setTraceOn(boolean aTraceOn)
      Deprecated.
      This method has been deprecated. It is recommended to use the standard Java logging framework directly.
      Enables tracing for this class instance. Calling this method with either true or false as argument automatically turns off tracing for all other class instances for which setTraceOn has not been called. If the argument is false then only the informative, warning and error log messages are recorded.
      Parameters:
      aTraceOn - if true then all log messages are recorded for this instance. If false, then only the informative, warning and error log messages are recorded.

      Returns:
      the section code of the record

    • read

      protected String read(char[] aRecord, int aStart, int aLength)

      Parameters:
      aRecord - the record to be read of
      aStart - the start position for reading
      aLength - the length of the String to be read
      Returns:

    • getLocalHorizontalDatum

      protected ILcdGeodeticDatum getLocalHorizontalDatum(String aGeodeticDatumCode)
      Returns an instance of an implementation of the ILcdGeodeticDatum interface according to the given geodetic datum code. The datum code is expected to be specified by their three character representation, as it is used in the ARINC specification.

      The full list of supported geodetic datum codes can be found in the ARINC Developer's Guide.

      If the supplied code is null or empty, the default geodetic datum is returned. This is WGS 84 by default, but it can be configured through setDefaultGeodeticDatum. If no geodetic datum can be found, null is returned.

      Parameters:
      aGeodeticDatumCode - the code for the geodetic datum to be returned
      Returns:
      the geodetic datum according to the given code
