Field Summary

static PrecisionType	DOUBLE Floating precision corresponds to the standard Java double-precision floating-point representation, which is based on the IEEE-754 standard.
static PrecisionType	FIXED Fixed precision indicates that coordinates have a fixed number of decimal places.
static PrecisionType	FLOAT Floating single precision corresponds to the standard Java single-precision floating-point representation, which is based on the IEEE-754 standard.

Method Summary

PrecisionType[]	family() Returns the list of codes of the same kind than this code list element.
boolean	isFloating() Returns true if PrecisionModelType is a represented using floating point arithmetic (rather then a grid).
static PrecisionType	valueOf(String code) Returns the precision type that matches the given string, or returns a new one if none match it.
static PrecisionType[]	values() Returns the list of PrecisionModelTypes.

Field Detail

FIXED

public static final PrecisionType FIXED

Fixed precision indicates that coordinates have a fixed number of decimal places.

DOUBLE

public static final PrecisionType DOUBLE

Floating precision corresponds to the standard Java double-precision floating-point representation, which is based on the IEEE-754 standard.

FLOAT

public static final PrecisionType FLOAT

Floating single precision corresponds to the standard Java single-precision floating-point representation, which is based on the IEEE-754 standard.

Method Detail

isFloating

public boolean isFloating()

Returns true if PrecisionModelType is a represented using floating point arithmetic (rather then a grid).

Returns:

true if floating point arithmetic is used.

values

public static PrecisionType[] values()

Returns the list of PrecisionModelTypes.

Returns:

The list of codes declared in the current JVM.

family

public PrecisionType[] family()

Returns the list of codes of the same kind than this code list element. Invoking this method is equivalent to invoking values(), except that this method can be invoked on an instance of the parent CodeList class.

Specified by:

family in class CodeList<PrecisionType>

Returns:

The codes of the same kind than this code.

valueOf

public static PrecisionType valueOf(String code)

Returns the precision type that matches the given string, or returns a new one if none match it. More specifically, this methods returns the first instance for which name().equals(code) returns true. If no existing instance is found, then a new one is created for the given name.

Parameters:

code - The name of the code to fetch or to create.

Returns:

A code matching the given name.
