Geometries (Geotools modules 21-SNAPSHOT API)

Object
- Enum<Geometries>
- - Geometries

All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable, Comparable<Geometries>

public enum Geometries
extends Enum<Geometries>

Constants to identify JTS geometry types, reducing the need for boiler-plate code such as this...


 if (Polygon.class.isAssignableFrom(myObject.getClass()) ||
         MultiPolygon.class.isAssignableFrom(myObject.getClass())) {
     // do polygon thing
     ...
 } else if (LineString.class.isAssignableFrom(myObject.getClass()) ||
         MultiLineString.class.isAssignableFrom(myObject.getClass())) {
     // do line thing
     ....
 } else {
     // do point thing
     ....
 }

Instead you can do this...


 Geometries geomType = Geometries.get(myObject);
 switch (geomType) {
     case POLYGON:
     case MULTIPOLYGON:
         // do polygon thing
         break;

     case LINESTRING:
     case MULTILINESTRING:
         // do line thing
         break;

     case POINT:
     case MULTIPOINT:
         // do point thing
         break;

     default:
         // e.g. unspecified Geometry, GeometryCollection
         break;
 }

You can also work with Class objects...


 Class aClass = ...
 Geometries type = Geometries.getForBinding( aClass );

```
public static Geometries[] 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 (Geometries c : Geometries.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static Geometries 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
  - getBinding
```
public Class<? extends Geometry> getBinding()
```
    Return the Geometry class associated with this type.
    
    Returns:
    
    the Geometry class
  - getSQLType
```
public Integer getSQLType()
```
    Return the integer SQL type code for this geometry type.
    
    Returns:
    
    integer code
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Equivalent to getName().
    
    Overrides:

    Returns:
    
    the name of this type
  - getName
```
public String getName()
```
    Return a name for this type that is suitable for text descriptions.
    
    Returns:
    
    the name
  - getSimpleName
```
public String getSimpleName()
```
    Get the 'simple name'. Returns the same value as getName() except for MULTIPOINT, MULTILINESTRING and MULTIPOLYGON, for which it returns the name without the 'Multi' prefix.
    
    Returns:
    
    the simple name
  - get
```
public static Geometries get(Geometry geom)
```
    Get the Geometries for the given object.

    geom - a JTS Geometry object
    
    Returns:
    
    the Geometries for the argument's class, or null if the argument is null
  - getForBinding
```
public static Geometries getForBinding(Class<? extends Geometry> geomClass)
```
    Get the Geometries for the given Geometry class.
    
    Parameters:
    
    geomClass - the class
    
    Returns:
    
    the constant for this class
  - getForName
