Jody and Gabriel, I have a few questions about the ISO Feature Model implementation (community-schemas/fm). I am porting it to trunk, and therefore GeoAPI 2.2 (from 2.1). I have picked through Justin and Jody's comments on the GeoAPI wiki, but not all is clear.
(1) TypeFactory is gone. It did look rather nasty. Is there a suitable replacement, or is this interface now disowned by GeoAPI? (2) FeatureCollection is gone. I assume the replacement is Collection<Feature>? If so, where where does metadata for a collection live, now that FeatureCollectionType is no more? If FeatureCollection is meant to become Collection<Feature>, we will, because of type erasure, have lost the capability to do "instanceof FeatureCollection", not to mention "instanceof FeatureCollectionType". This will cause some code to be unimplementable. (3) And what happens to all the sundry collection classes in or.geotools.feature.iso.collection? I can, of course, use the concrete classes to get things going, but it would be nice to do things properly. Is there a GeoAPI migration guide (other than the front page of the wiki)? Many of the changes are straightforward, but a few are cryptic and would benefit from a guide. Any suggestions or recommendations, particularly on how to handle collections, would be appreciated.
