Interface FeatureStoreTransform

All Superinterfaces:

Persistent

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractFeatureStoreTransform

public interface FeatureStoreTransform
extends Persistent

A FeatureStoreTransform provides a mechanism for mapping a source FeatureType to a target FeatureType, allowing to build different views (as in database view) over different feature types even from different stores.

FeatureType	getDefaultFeatureType() Returns the default FeatureType.
String	getDescription()
Object	getDynValue(String name)
FeatureStore	getFeatureStore() Returns the FeatureStore to which this transform belongs.
List	getFeatureTypes() Returns this FeatureStoreTransform's FeatureType(s)
String	getName()
FeatureType	getSourceFeatureTypeFrom(FeatureType targetFeatureType) Returns the original store FeatureType that replaces targetFeatureType of this FeatureStoreTransform's
boolean	hasDynValue(String name)
boolean	isTransformsOriginalValues() Retruns true if this make changes of any attributes values or false if only FeatureType definitions is changed.
void	setDynValue(String name, Object value)
void	setFeatureStore(FeatureStore featureStore) Sets the FeatureStore to which this transform is applied.
