Class BaseFeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Object

BaseFeatureCollection<T,F>

All Implemented Interfaces:

FeatureCollection<T,F>

Direct Known Subclasses:

BaseSimpleFeatureCollection, ProcessingCollection, WFSContentComplexFeatureCollection

public abstract class BaseFeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>
extends Object
implements FeatureCollection<T,F>

Implement a feature collection just based on provision of a FeatureIterator.

This implementation asks you to implement:

• features()
• This is the direct decentent of the origional AbstractFeatureCollection and represents the easiest way to package your content as a FeatureCollection.

  As this class provides no optimization, it is strongly recommended that you implement the following methods (which require a whole collection traversal):

  • size()
  • {@link #getBounds()

Method Detail

getID

public String getID()

Description copied from interface: FeatureCollection

ID used when serializing to GML

Specified by:

getID in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

getSchema

public T getSchema()

Description copied from interface: FeatureCollection

The schema for the child feature members of this collection.

Represents the most general FeatureType in common to all the features in this collection.

• For a collection backed by a shapefiles (or database tables) the FeatureType returned by getSchema() will complete describe each and every child in the collection.
• For mixed content FeatureCollections you will need to check the FeatureType of each Feature as it is retrived from the collection
• The degenerate case returns the "_Feature" FeatureType, where the only thing known is that the contents are Features.

Specified by:

getSchema in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

FeatureType describing the "common" schema to all child features of this collection

features

public abstract FeatureIterator<F> features()

Subclasses required to implement this method to traverse FeatureCollection contents.

Note that FeatureIterator.close() is available to clean up after any resource use required during traversal.

Specified by:

features in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

A FeatureIterator.

contains

public boolean contains(Object o)

Returns true if this collection contains the specified element. .

This implementation iterates over the elements in the collection, checking each element in turn for equality with the specified element.

Specified by:

contains in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Parameters:

o - object to be checked for containment in this collection.

Returns:

true if this collection contains the specified element.

See Also:

Collection.contains(Object)

containsAll

public boolean containsAll(Collection<?> c)

Returns true if this collection contains all of the elements in the specified collection.

Specified by:

containsAll in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Parameters:

c - collection to be checked for containment in this collection.

Returns:

true if this collection contains all of the elements in the specified collection.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the specified collection is null.

See Also:

contains(Object)

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

Description copied from interface: FeatureCollection

Returns true if this feature collection contains no features.

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

true if this collection contains no elements.

toArray

public Object[] toArray()

Array of all the elements.

Specified by:

toArray in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

an array containing all of the elements in this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray()

toArray

public <O> O[] toArray(O[] a)

Specified by:

toArray in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

See Also:

Collection.toArray(Object[])

accepts

public void accepts(FeatureVisitor visitor,
                    ProgressListener progress)
             throws IOException

Description copied from interface: FeatureCollection

Visit the contents of a feature collection.

The order of traversal is dependent on the FeatureCollection implementation; some collections are able to make efficient use of an internal index in order to quickly visit features located in the same region.

Specified by:

accepts in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Parameters:

visitor - Closure applied to each feature in turn.

progress - Used to report progress, may be used to interrupt the operation

Throws:

IOException

subCollection

public FeatureCollection<T,F> subCollection(Filter filter)

Convenience implementation that just wraps this collection into a FilteringFeatureCollection. Subclasses might want to override this in case the filter can be cascaded to their data sources.

Specified by:

subCollection in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

SimpleFeatureCollection identified as subset.

See Also:

FeatureList

sort

public FeatureCollection<T,F> sort(SortBy order)

Obtained sorted contents, only implemented for SimpleFeature at present.

This method only supports SimpleFeature at present, consider use of FeatureSource.features( Query ).

Specified by:

sort in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Parameters:

order - Sort order

Returns:

FeatureCollection sorted in the indicated order

size

public int size()

Returns the number of elements in this collection.

Specified by:

size in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

Number of items, or Interger.MAX_VALUE

See Also:

Collection.size()

getBounds

public ReferencedEnvelope getBounds()

Full collection traversal to obtain bounds of FeatureCollection. Subclasees are strong encouraged to override this expensive method (even if just to implement caching).

Specified by:

getBounds in interface FeatureCollection<T extends FeatureType,F extends Feature>

Returns:

An Envelope containing the total bounds of this collection.
