Hi all,
I have a SimpleFeatureImpl object with several properties, some of which
are complex, i.e. they are themselves Features, as in this example:
+ CadastralParcel
+ inspireId (IdentifierType)
- namespace (String)
- localid (String)
- versionId (String)
+ geographicalName (GeographicalNameType)
+ spelling (SpellingOfNameType)
- script (String)
- text (String)
- transliteration (String)
In my application, I often have to directly set such a nested property
(e.g. "script" under spelling of geographicalname). For that purpose, I
also need to create all missing Features "on the path", in this case,
spelling.
I have now found that at runtime, these complex properties are actually
of type SimpleFeatureImpl$Attribute, which is a non-public inner class
and therefore cannot be accessed directly. This is an issue for me since
I am trying to create such complex properties and to add them to a
Feature after the feature has been created.
This is the source code I am using so far (which fails obviously):
http://community.esdi-humboldt.eu/repositories/entry/cst/eu.esdihumboldt.cst.corefunctions/src/main/java/eu/esdihumboldt/cst/corefunctions/RenameAttributeFunction.java?rev=3473
Relevant lines #: around 75 to 100.
I'd welcome any insights or ideas on how I could solve this issue. My
current guess would be to subtype SimpleFeatureImpl (to change the
behaviour of creating/returning attribute objects when the object in
question is actually a Feature), but I'd welcome other ideas...
Kind regards,
Thorsten
