Class Dimension

java.lang.Object
  com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Dimension

public class Dimension
extends java.lang.Object

Provides constants representing the dimensions of a point, a curve and a surface. Also provides constants representing the dimensions of the empty geometry and non-empty geometries, and the wildcard constant DONTCARE meaning "any dimension". These constants are used as the entries in IntersectionMatrixs.

Version:

Field Summary

static int	A Dimension value of a surface (2).
static int	DONTCARE Dimension value for any dimension (= {FALSE, TRUE}).
static int	FALSE Dimension value of the empty geometry (-1).
static int	L Dimension value of a curve (1).
static int	P Dimension value of a point (0).
static int	TRUE Dimension value of non-empty geometries (= {P, L, A}).

Constructor Summary

Dimension()

Method Summary

static char	toDimensionSymbol(int dimensionValue) Converts the dimension value to a dimension symbol, for example, TRUE => 'T' .
static int	toDimensionValue(char dimensionSymbol) Converts the dimension symbol to a dimension value, for example, '*' => DONTCARE .

Method Detail

toDimensionSymbol

public static char toDimensionSymbol(int dimensionValue)

Converts the dimension value to a dimension symbol, for example, TRUE => 'T' .

Parameters:

dimensionValue - a number that can be stored in the IntersectionMatrix . Possible values are {TRUE, FALSE, DONTCARE, 0, 1, 2}.

Returns:

a character for use in the string representation of an IntersectionMatrix. Possible values are {T, F, * , 0, 1, 2} .

toDimensionValue

public static int toDimensionValue(char dimensionSymbol)

Converts the dimension symbol to a dimension value, for example, '*' => DONTCARE .

Parameters:

dimensionSymbol - a character for use in the string representation of an IntersectionMatrix. Possible values are {T, F, * , 0, 1, 2} .

Returns:

a number that can be stored in the IntersectionMatrix . Possible values are {TRUE, FALSE, DONTCARE, 0, 1, 2}.
