ShapeType (Geotools modules 28-SNAPSHOT API)

Object
- Enum<ShapeType>
- - ShapeType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ShapeType>
```
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.

- Field Detail
  - 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 Detail
  - values
```
public static ShapeType[] 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 (ShapeType c : ShapeType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static ShapeType 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
  - 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.
