Package com.luciad.lucy.format

package com.luciad.lucy.format

Provides support facilities for adding a new data format to Lucy. The classes in this package can be used in the implementation of an addon to easily add a new format to Lucy.

Clients are expected to implement the basic functionality of the new format in a subclass of ALcyFormat and add several standard behaviours by wrapping it with the appropriate ALcyFormatWrapper subclasses. For instance, a wrapper is available that enables asynchronous painting of the layers of the wrapped ALcyFormat.

TLcyFormatTool can then be used to plug all the functionality of the ALcyFormat into the Lucy backend.

TLcyMutableFileFormatWrapper	This format decorator adds workspace support for saving changed models.
TLcySafeGuardFormatWrapper	Decorator for an ALcyFormat that safe guards all operations on models and layers to make sure no invalid models or layers are ever accepted or handled.
TLcyTransformingModelFormatWrapper	An ALcyFormatWrapper instance which adds support for transforming the models in the layer factory, for example to add support for clustering.
