Class BinaryParser

java.lang.Object

org.postgis.binary.BinaryParser

public class BinaryParser
extends Object

Parse binary representation of geometries. It should be easy to add char[] and CharSequence ByteGetter instances, although the latter one is not compatible with older jdks. I did not implement real unsigned 32-bit integers or emulate them with long, as both java Arrays and Strings currently can have only 2^31-1 elements (bytes), so we cannot even get or build Geometries with more than approx. 2^28 coordinates (8 bytes each).

Method Detail

valueGetterForEndian

public static ValueGetter valueGetterForEndian(ByteGetter bytes)

Get the appropriate ValueGetter for my endianness

Parameters:

bytes - The appropriate Byte Getter

Returns:

the ValueGetter

parse

public Geometry parse(String value)

Parse a hex encoded geometry Is synchronized to protect offset counter. (Unfortunately, Java does not have neither call by reference nor multiple return values.)

Parameters:

value - String containing the data to be parsed

Returns:

resulting geometry for the parsed data

parse

public Geometry parse(byte[] value)

Parse a binary encoded geometry. Is synchronized to protect offset counter. (Unfortunately, Java does not have neither call by reference nor multiple return values.)

Parameters:

value - byte array containing the data to be parsed

Returns:

resulting geometry for the parsed data

parseGeometry

protected Geometry parseGeometry(ValueGetter data)

Parse a geometry starting at offset.

Parameters:

data - ValueGetter with the data to be parsed

Returns:

the parsed geometry
