Constructor Detail

WKTFileReader

public WKTFileReader(File file,
                     WKTReader wktReader)

Creates a new WKTFileReader given the File to read from and a WKTReader to use to parse the geometries.

Parameters:

file - the File to read from

wktReader - the geometry reader to use

WKTFileReader

public WKTFileReader(String filename,
                     WKTReader wktReader)

Creates a new WKTFileReader, given the name of the file to read from.

Parameters:

filename - the name of the file to read from

wktReader - the geometry reader to use

WKTFileReader

public WKTFileReader(Reader reader,
                     WKTReader wktReader)

Creates a new WKTFileReader, given a Reader to read from.

Parameters:

reader - the reader to read from

wktReader - the geometry reader to use

Method Detail

setLimit

public void setLimit(int limit)

Sets the maximum number of geometries to read.

Parameters:

limit - the maximum number of geometries to read

setOffset

public void setOffset(int offset)

Sets the number of geometries to skip before storing.

Parameters:

offset - the number of geometries to skip

read

public List read()
          throws IOException,
                 ParseException

Reads a sequence of geometries. If an offset is specified, geometries read up to the offset count are skipped. If a limit is specified, no more than limit geometries are read.

Returns:

the list of geometries read

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O exception was encountered

ParseException - if an error occured reading a geometry
