org.postgis.binary.BinaryWriter

public class BinaryWriter
extends Object

Create binary representation of geometries. Currently, only text rep (hexed) implementation is tested. It should be easy to add char[] and CharSequence ByteGetter instances, although the latter one is not compatible with older jdks. I did not implement real unsigned 32-bit integers or emulate them with long, as both java Arrays and Strings currently can have only 2^31-1 elements (bytes), so we cannot even get or build Geometries with more than approx. 2^28 coordinates (8 bytes each).

Method Detail

valueSetterForEndian

public static ValueSetter valueSetterForEndian(ByteSetter bytes,
                               byte endian)

Get the appropriate ValueGetter for my endianness

Parameters:

bytes - The appropriate Byte Getter

Returns:

the ValueGetter

writeHexed

public String writeHexed(Geometry geom,
                byte REP)

Write a hex encoded geometry Is synchronized to protect offset counter. (Unfortunately, Java does not have neither call by reference nor multiple return values.) This is a TODO item. The geometry you put in must be consistent, geom.checkConsistency() must return true. If not, the result may be invalid WKB.

writeHexed

public String writeHexed(Geometry geom)

writeBinary

public byte[] writeBinary(Geometry geom,
                 byte REP)

Write a binary encoded geometry. Is synchronized to protect offset counter. (Unfortunately, Java does not have neither call by reference nor multiple return values.) This is a TODO item. The geometry you put in must be consistent, geom.checkConsistency() must return true. If not, the result may be invalid WKB.

writeBinary

public byte[] writeBinary(Geometry geom)

writeGeometry

protected void writeGeometry(Geometry geom,
                 ValueSetter dest)

Parse a geometry starting at offset.

estimateBytes

protected int estimateBytes(Geometry geom)

Estimate how much bytes a geometry will need in WKB.
