aside to whom? from a GeoAPI stand point, i would like to continue to support the org.opengis.sld.*Symbol objects more than the *.go.display.primitive.*Symbolizer thingys. i most definitely intend to keep using Symbols, but i may be able to let Symbolizers fall by the wayside.
from a geotools stand point, well, i'm not fit to answer that one. i would think you guys would want to sort of gloss over the whole Graphic side of things and stick to Features (and the coming Coverages). > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:geoapi-devel- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jody Garnett > Sent: Tuesday, November 22, 2005 2:14 PM > To: Reynolds, Greg > Cc: Martin Desruisseaux; Geotools-devel; geoapi > Subject: Re: [Geoapi-devel] Style dis-harmonization > > Reynolds, Greg wrote: > > I am sensing a push to move to JDK 1.5... > > > No real push, we are stuck at Java 1.4 until J2EE types have a migration > path ... however this does leave > us with the *cutover* technique, which was not much fun for CRS last year. > > Aside: Any idea if Symbol or Symbolizer will be used in the future? > > For now just going to update the geotools interfaces, and include GeoAPI > method names (where > they don't already match). > > Jody > > > >> -----Original Message----- > >> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >> [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > >> Of Jody Garnett > >> Sent: Tuesday, November 22, 2005 1:09 PM > >> To: Martin Desruisseaux > >> Cc: Geotools-devel; geoapi > >> Subject: Re: [Geoapi-devel] Style dis-harmonization > >> > >> Jody Garnett wrote: > >> > >>> Corey and I will be updating these interfaces to refer to > >>> > >> the latest > >> > >>> publish specification (SLD 1.0), we will also allow for > >>> > >> LabelShields, > >> > >>> to ensure that the result is flexable enough to allow for > >>> experimentation. > >>> > >> Well the first idea failed - we need Java 5 type narrowing to > >> pull it off. > >> > >> The idea was: > >> - GeoAPI PolygonSymbol - unchanged > >> - GeoTools PolygonSymbolizer - extend PolygonSymbol > >> - GeoTools PolygonSymbolizerImpl - implement duplicated method > >> > >> The obviously has conflicts as the two interfaces report back > >> different classes for Fill, and Stroke. > >> Performing the same change on Fill and Stroke is *still* > >> circular, without Java 5 there is no way for a GeoTools > >> PolygonSymbolizer to "narrow" the scope and indicate that > >> just a GeoTools Fill is returned. > >> > >> So this technique could work, but would break all geoTools > >> renderers and client code. > >> Jesse points out that this could be handled with a > >> refactoring tool, but this is more work then our short term > >> goal justifies. > >> > >> This experience will repeat itself Martin, every transition > >> to GeoAPI interfaces will be disruptive in nature until we > >> can assume Java 5 as a target. > >> > >> Jody > >> > >> > >> > >> ------------------------------------------------------- > >> This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
