Subject: [jts-devel] JTS 1.9 Released
Date: Thursday 03 January 2008
From: Martin Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: JTS Topology Suite Development <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

JTS 1.9 has been released on SourceForge ( 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/jts-topo-suite/ )

Major enhancements in this release include:
- PreparedGeometry for improved spatial predicate performance
- Geometry unaryUnion() functionality
- New functions, improved UI and rendering in the TestBuilder

Numerous other enhancements and fixes are included.  The full list is:


//


      Functionality Improvements

    * Added Polygonal, Lineal, Puntal tag interfaces to better
      categorize geometry classes
    * Added Geometry.union() method, UnaryUnionOp class for efficient
      unioning of geometrys
    * Added Triangle.area3D method
    * Added LineSegment.pointAlongOffset method
    * Added LineSegment.orientationIndex(Coordinate) method
    * Added PreparedGeometry classes and methods to optimize some
      geometry functions in batch situations
    * Added Envelope.covers methods, for preciseness
    * Added OctagonalEnvelope class
    * Improved CGAlgorithms.isPointInRing method to handle case where
      point lies on the ring
    * Added CGAlgorithms.locatePointInRing method
    * Added PointInAreaLocator interface, enhanced
      SimplePointInAreaLocator to extend this
    * Added RayCrossingCounter, IndexedPointInAreaLocator classes for
      more efficient Point-In-Polygon testing
    * Added GeometryCombiner class
    * Enhanced BufferOp with join styles
    * Enhanced WKTReader to accept any case for NaN number symbols
    * Added WKTFileReader class
    * Improved performance of CoordinateList constructors
    * Added CascadedPolygonUnion class
    * Added LinearLocation.isOnSameSegment method
    * Added LinearLocation.getSegment method
    * Added LocationIndexedLine.indexOfAfter method
    * Added interpolation of Z value to linear referencing methods
    * Added methods to rotate around a given point to AffineTransformation
    * Allowed GeometricShapeFactory to be subclassed to add new shapes
    * Added SineStarFactory (primarily to support testing)
    * Added SortedPackedIntervalRTree class
    * Added SegmentSetMutualIntersector interface and implementations
    * Added Node.remove(DirectedEdge) method in planargraph package


      Performance Improvements

    * Improved performance for |SimplePointInAreaLocator| (by checking
      ring envelopes as a filter)


      Bug Fixes

    * Geometry.buffer operation fixed to always return polygonal geometries
    * Fixed bug in |Geometry.buffer(distance, quadrantSegs)| causing
      failure for some cases with quadrantSegs = 1
    * Fixed bug in GeometryFactory.toGeometry(Envelope) which was
      returning invalid Polygons for "linear" envelopes
    * Fixed bug in MonotoneChainBuilder which caused failures in
      situations with segments of zero length
    * Fixed PointLocator to handle locating in Point geometries
    * Fixed GeometricShapeFactory to always use provided PrecisionModel
    * Fixed LinearLocation.clone method
    * Fixed LinearLocation.isValid method
    * Fixed Polygonizer to accept single-point linestrings (which are
      ignored)


      API Changes

    * Deprecated |RobustCGAlgorithms|
    * Deprecated |BufferOp| cap style constants (these are now provided
      in BufferParameters)
    * Removed |SIRPointInRing|

------------------------------------------------------------------------


      JTS TestRunner


      New Features

    * Added ability to specify GeometryOperation in XML file
    * Added BufferValidatedGeometryOperation
    * Added ability to specify custom result matching via resultMatcher
      parameter in XML files
    * Added BufferResultMatcher

------------------------------------------------------------------------


      JTS TestBuilder


      UI Improvements

    * Improved rendering of geometries
    * Improved symbology for orientation
    * Simplified Geometry creation
    * Improved vertex move/add
    * Added tooltip for coordinate location
    * Added more geometry functions
    * Added Copy Result to Test button


      Code Improvements

    * Restructured code for more flexibility, better Swing functionality
    * Made it easier to add geometry functions
