Class OperationParametersReport

Object
Report
OperationParametersReport

public class OperationParametersReport extends Report
Generates a list of operations (typically map projections) and their parameters. The operations are described by instances of an IdentifiedObject subtype, for example coordinates OperationMethod. Each operation can be associated to a ParameterDescriptorGroup instance. Those elements can be added individually in the rows list. Alternatively, a convenience method can be used for adding all operation methods available from a given MathTransformFactory.

This class recognizes the following property values:

Report properties
Key Remarks Meaning
TITLE Title of the web page to produce.
DESCRIPTION optional Description to write after the introductory paragraph.
OBJECTS.KIND Kind of objects listed in the page (e.g. "Operation Methods").
PRODUCT.NAME Name of the product for which the report is generated.
PRODUCT.VERSION Version of the product for which the report is generated.
PRODUCT.URL URL where more information is available about the product.
JAVADOC.GEOAPI predefinedBase URL of GeoAPI javadoc.
FILENAME predefinedName of the file to create if the write(File) argument is a directory.

How to use this class:

  • Create a Properties map with the values documented in the above table. Default values exist for many keys, but may depend on the environment. It is safer to specify values explicitly when they are known.
  • Create a new OperationParametersReport with the above properties map given to the constructor.
  • Invoke one of the add method for each operation or factory to include in the HTML page.
  • Invoke write(File).

    • OperationParametersReport

      public OperationParametersReport(Properties properties)
      Creates a new report generator using the given property values. See the class javadoc for a list of expected values.
      Parameters:
      properties - the property values, or null for the default values.
  • Method Details

    • add

      public void add(IdentifiedObject operation, ParameterDescriptorGroup parameters)
      Adds an operation to be show on the HTML page. The default implementation performs the following steps:
      • Get the set of all code spaces or scopes found in the given operation.
      • Delegates to createRow(…) with the above set. This means that any parameter names defined in another scope will be ignored.
      • Add the new row to the rows list if non-null.
      Parameters:
      operation - the operation to show on the HTML page.
      parameters - the operation parameters, or null if none.
    • add

      public void add(MathTransformFactory factory)
      Convenience method adding all available methods from the given factory. Each coordinate operation method is added to the rows list as below:
      add(method, method.getParameters());
      Parameters:
      factory - the factory for which to add available methods.
    • createRow

      protected OperationParametersReport.Row createRow(IdentifiedObject operation, ParameterDescriptorGroup parameters, Set<String> codeSpaces)
      Creates a new row for the given operation and parameters. This method is invoked by the add(…) method when a new row needs to be created, either for an operation or for one of its parameters.

      The default implementation instantiate a new OperationParametersReport.Row with the given operation and code spaces. Then, if the given parameters argument is non-null, this method iterates over all parameter descriptor and invokes this method recursively for creating their rows.

      Parameters:
      operation - the operation.
      parameters - the operation parameters, or null if none.
      codeSpaces - the code spaces for which to get the name and aliases.
      Returns:
      the new row, or null if none.
    • write

      public File write(File destination) throws IOException
      Formats the current content of the rows list as a HTML page in the given file.
      Specified by:
      write in class Report
      Parameters:
      destination - the file to generate.
      Returns:
      the given destination file.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an error occurred while writing the HTML page.
