Constructor Details

EmptyFeatureWriter

public EmptyFeatureWriter(SimpleFeatureType featureType)

An Empty FeatureWriter of the provided featureType.

Method Details

getFeatureType

public SimpleFeatureType getFeatureType()

Description copied from interface: FeatureWriter

FeatureType this reader has been configured to create.

Specified by:

getFeatureType in interface FeatureWriter<SimpleFeatureType,SimpleFeature>

Returns:

FeatureType this writer has been configured to create.

• FeatureWriter.getFeatureType()

next

public SimpleFeature next()
                   throws NoSuchElementException

Throws NoSuchElementException as this is an Empty FeatureWriter.

Specified by:

next in interface FeatureWriter<SimpleFeatureType,SimpleFeature>

Returns:

Does not return

Throws:

NoSuchElementException

See Also:

• FeatureWriter.next()

remove

public void remove()
            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: FeatureWriter

Removes current Feature, must be called before hasNext.

FeatureWriters will need to allow all FeatureSources of the same typeName to issue a FeatureEvent event of type FeatureEvent.FEATURES_REMOVED when this method is called.

If this FeatureWriter is opperating against a Transaction FEATURES_REMOVED events should only be sent to FeatureSources operating on the same Transaction. When Transaction commit() is called other FeatureSources will be informed of the modifications.

When the current Feature has been provided as new content, this method "cancels" the add opperation (and notification needed).

Specified by:

remove in interface FeatureWriter<SimpleFeatureType,SimpleFeature>

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

• FeatureWriter.remove()

write

public void write()
           throws IOException

Description copied from interface: FeatureWriter

Writes the current Feature, must be called before hasNext.

FeautreWriters will need to allow FeatureSources of the same typeName to issue a FeatureEvent:

• FeatureEvent.FEATURES_ADDED: when next() has been called with hasNext() equal to false.
• FeatureEvent.FEATURES_MODIFIED: when next has been called with hasNext() equal to true and the resulting Feature has indeed been modified.

If this FeatureWriter is opperating against a Transaction the FEATURES_MODIFIED or FEATURES_ADDED events should only be sent to FeatureSources opperating on the same Transaction. When Transaction commit() is called other FeatureSources will be informed of the modifications.

If you have not called write() when you call hasNext() or next(), no modification will occur().

Specified by:

write in interface FeatureWriter<SimpleFeatureType,SimpleFeature>

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

• FeatureWriter.remove()

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

There is no next Feature.

Specified by:

hasNext in interface FeatureWriter<SimpleFeatureType,SimpleFeature>

Returns:

false

See Also:

• FeatureWriter.hasNext()

close

public void close()

Cleans up after Empty FeatureWriter.

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:
