Enum Class ShapeType

Object
Enum<ShapeType>
ShapeType
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<ShapeType>, Constable

public enum ShapeType extends Enum<ShapeType>
Not much but a type safe enumeration of file types as ints and names. The descriptions can easily be tied to a ResourceBundle if someone wants to do that.

      public static final ShapeType POLYGONZ
      Represents a PolygonZ shape (id = 15).
    • POLYGONM

      public static final ShapeType POLYGONM
      Represents a PolygonM shape (id = 25).
    • MULTIPOINT

      public static final ShapeType MULTIPOINT
      Represents a MultiPoint shape (id = 8).
    • MULTIPOINTZ

      public static final ShapeType MULTIPOINTZ

      Represents a MultiPointM shape (id = 28).
    • UNDEFINED

      public static final ShapeType UNDEFINED
      Represents an Undefined shape (id = -1).
  • Field Details

    • id

      public final int id
      The integer id of this ShapeType.
    • name

      public final String name
      The human-readable name for this ShapeType.
      Could easily use ResourceBundle for internationialization.
  • Method Details

    • values

      public static ShapeType[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared
    • valueOf

      public static ShapeType valueOf(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (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 class has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Get the name of this ShapeType.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Enum<ShapeType>
      Returns:
      The name.
    • isMultiPoint

      public boolean isMultiPoint()
      Is this a multipoint shape? Hint- all shapes are multipoint except NULL, UNDEFINED, and the POINTs.
      Returns:
      true if multipoint, false otherwise.
    • isPointType

      public boolean isPointType()
    • isLineType

      public boolean isLineType()
    • isPolygonType

      public boolean isPolygonType()
    • isMultiPointType

      public boolean isMultiPointType()
    • forID

      public static ShapeType forID(int id)
      Determine the ShapeType for the id.
      Parameters:
      id - The id to search for.
      Returns:
      The ShapeType for the id.
    • getShapeHandler

      public ShapeHandler getShapeHandler(GeometryFactory gf) throws ShapefileException
      Each ShapeType corresponds to a handler. In the future this should probably go else where to allow different handlers, or something...
      Returns:
      The correct handler for this ShapeType. Returns a new one.
      Throws:
      ShapefileException - If the ShapeType is bogus.
