Interface AggregateFactory

public interface AggregateFactory

A factory of aggregate geometric objects. All aggregates created through this interface will use the factory's coordinate reference system. Creating aggregates in a different CRS may requires a different instance of AggregateFactory.

Method Detail

createMultiPrimitive

MultiPrimitive createMultiPrimitive(Set<Primitive> primitives)

Creates a multi primitive by a set of primitives. The created MultiPrimitive will hold only references to the given primitive, e.g. changes in the primitive instances will have consequences in the geometric behaviour of the MultiPrimitive and vice versa.

Parameters:

points - A set of primitives.

Returns:

the resulting multi primitive.

createMultiPoint

MultiPoint createMultiPoint(Set<Point> points)

Creates a multi point by a set of points. The created MultiPoint will hold only references to the given points, e.g. changes in the point instances will have consequences in the geometric behaviour of the MultiPoint and vice versa.

Parameters:

points - A set of points.

Returns:

the resulting multi point.

createMultiCurve

MultiCurve createMultiCurve(Set<OrientableCurve> curves)

Creates a multi curve by a set of curves. The created MultiCurve will hold only references to the given curves, e.g. changes in the curve instances will have consequences in the geometric behaviour of the MultiCurve and vice versa.

Parameters:

curves - A set of curves.

Returns:

the resulting multi curve.

createMultiSurface

MultiSurface createMultiSurface(Set<OrientableSurface> surfaces)

Creates a multi surface by a set of surfaces. The created MultiSurface will hold only references to the given surfaces, e.g. changes in the surface instances will have consequences in the geometric behaviour of the MultiSurface and vice versa.

Parameters:

surfaces - A set of surfaces.

Returns:

the resulting multi surface.
