Class TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder

java.lang.Object
com.luciad.format.database.TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder
All Implemented Interfaces:
ILcdModelEncoder, Serializable
Direct Known Subclasses:
TLcdDB2SpatialModelEncoder
public class TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder extends Object implements ILcdModelEncoder
This ILcdModelDecoder encodes models into spatial databases.

A spatial database is accessed based on a set of properties. The properties can be passed in a Properties object, or using a properties file with extension dbp.

A spatial database is accessed based on a set of properties. The properties can be passed in a Properties object, or using a properties file with extension dbp. The properties below can also be set directly on the ILcdModelDecoder.

The common property needed to establish a connection is:

  • databaseFactory: the class name of the implementation of ILcdDatabaseFactory that is needed to decode the database correctly. The user can provide an implementation, or Database Connector components can do this, e.g. for Oracle Spatial or for Informix Geodetic.

  • Constructor Details

    • TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder

      public TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder()
      Creates a new database encoder.

    • TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder

      public TLcdDatabaseModelEncoder(ILcdDatabaseFactory aDatabaseFactory)
      Creates a new database encoder.
      Parameters:
      aDatabaseFactory - specifies the factory that implements the support for a particular database.

  • Method Details

    • setDatabaseFactory

      public void setDatabaseFactory(ILcdDatabaseFactory aDatabaseFactory)
      Sets the database factory that has all the essential methods for accessing a particular database. If left unset, the databaseFactory property in the properties file must specify the class name of the database factory.
      Parameters:
      aDatabaseFactory - specifies the factory that implements the support for a particular database.

    • getDatabaseFactory

      public ILcdDatabaseFactory getDatabaseFactory()
      Returns the database factory that has all the essential methods for accessing a particular database. This factory is typically only used internally, by the database model encoder.

    • setAutoCommitCount

      public void setAutoCommitCount(int aAutoCommitCount)
      Sets the number of inserted elements after which an export operation should be committed, periodically. The default is 0, meaning that the export operation is only committed when all elements have been inserted. A different value can be useful to avoid overflow of database transaction logs.

    • getAutoCommitCount

      public int getAutoCommitCount()
      Returns the number of inserted elements after which an export operation is committed.

    • getDisplayName

      public String getDisplayName()
      Description copied from interface: ILcdModelEncoder
      Returns a short, displayable name for the format this ILcdModelEncoder encodes to.
      Specified by:
      getDisplayName in interface ILcdModelEncoder
      Returns:
      the displayable name of this ILcdModelEncoder.

    • canExport

      public boolean canExport(ILcdModel aModel, String aDestinationName)
      Returns whether the given model can be saved into the database described by the given properties file.
      Specified by:
      canExport in interface ILcdModelEncoder
      Parameters:
      aModel - the model to be verified.
      aDestinationName - the location where the model should be exported to.
      Returns:
      true if this encoder can export the specified model to the specified location, false otherwise.
      See Also:

    • export

      public void export(ILcdModel aModel, String aDestinationName) throws IOException, IllegalArgumentException
      Exports the given model in a new table, based on the properties in the given file.
      Specified by:
      export in interface ILcdModelEncoder
      Parameters:
      aModel - the model to be exported.
      aDestinationName - the properties file describing the database table to be created.
      Throws:
      IOException - for any database access errors. This includes the case where the table already exists.
      IllegalArgumentException - if the model cannot be saved by this encoder (!canExport(aModel, aDestinationName)).

    • export

      public void export(ILcdModel aModel, Properties aProperties) throws IOException, IllegalArgumentException
      Exports the given model in a new table, based on the given properties.
      Parameters:
      aModel - the model to be exported.
      aProperties - the properties describing the database table to be created.
      Throws:
      IOException - for any database access errors. This includes the case where the table already exists.
      IllegalArgumentException

    • canSave

      public boolean canSave(ILcdModel aModel)
      Returns whether the given model can be saved back into the database.
      Specified by:
      canSave in interface ILcdModelEncoder
      Parameters:
      aModel - the model to be verified.
      Returns:
      true if this encoder can save the model in the location where it originally came from, false otherwise.
      See Also:

    • save

      public void save(ILcdModel aModel) throws IOException, IllegalArgumentException
      Saves the given model in its original location, by committing all changes.
      Specified by:
      save in interface ILcdModelEncoder
      Parameters:
      aModel - the database model to be committed.
      Throws:
      IOException - for any database access errors.
      IllegalArgumentException - if the model cannot be saved by this encoder (!canSave(aModel)).
