Class GMLHandler

java.lang.Object
  org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler
      com.vividsolutions.jts.io.gml2.GMLHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

ContentHandler, DTDHandler, EntityResolver, ErrorHandler

public class GMLHandler
extends org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler

A SAX DefaultHandler which builds Geometrys from GML2-formatted geometries. An XML parser can delegate SAX events to this handler to parse and building Geometrys.

This handler currently ignores both namespaces and prefixes. Hints:

• If your parent handler is a DefaultHandler register the parent handler to receive the errors and locator calls.
• Use GeometryStrategies.findStrategy(String, String) to help check for applicability

Constructor Detail

GMLHandler

public GMLHandler(GeometryFactory gf,
                  ErrorHandler delegate)

Creates a new handler. Allows the user to specify a delegate object for error / warning messages. If the delegate also implements ContentHandler then the document Locator will be passed on.

Parameters:

gf - Geometry Factory

delegate - Nullable

See Also:

ErrorHandler, ContentHandler, ContentHandler.setDocumentLocator(org.xml.sax.Locator), Locator

Method Detail

isGeometryComplete

public boolean isGeometryComplete()

Tests whether this handler has completed parsing a geometry. If this is the case, getGeometry() can be called to get the value of the parsed geometry.

Returns:

if the parsing of the geometry is complete

getGeometry

public Geometry getGeometry()

Gets the geometry parsed by this handler. This method should only be called AFTER the parser has completed execution

Returns:

the parsed Geometry, or a GeometryCollection if more than one geometry was parsed

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if called before the parse is complete

characters

public void characters(char[] ch,
                       int start,

                throws SAXException

Specified by:

characters in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

characters in class org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler

Throws:

SAXException
