public class AnnotationFeatureType extends Object
Annotations represent a text based geographic feature. The geometry stored in the feature
indicates where the text should be drawn and the attribute indicated by the ANNOTATION_ATTRIBUTE_NAME
attribute holds the text to be displayed for the feature.
Example:
if ( feature.getFeatureType().isDescendedFrom( AnnotationFeatureType.ANNOTATION ) ) { String attributeName = (String)feature.getAttribute( AnnotationFeatureType.ANNOTATION_ATTRIBUTE_NAME ); String annotationText = (String)feature.getAttribute( attributeName ); ... // Do something with the annotation text and feature }
