Yes this is andrea bait :-)
I am sorting out questions from SoC students and acuster (guess who has
harder questions?).
- http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTDOC/Filters
And arrived at the following example "optimization" ...
> if( filter == Filter.INCLUDES || filter.evaluate( feature ) ){
> // the feature was "selected" by the filter
> System.out.println( "Selected "+ feature.getId();
> }
My question is this - does it actually optimize anything?
Filter.INCLUDES returns true after all - is the extra test worth the effort?
Just want to get this straight before I lead another generation of
GeoTools programmers into a good/bad practice.
