Method Detail

getGeometryType

public abstract java.lang.String getGeometryType()

The type of geometry the graphic represents (e.g. "point", "polyline", etc.)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns the graphic type plus the text of the standard properties. You can easily extend this by calling super.toString and appending additional information.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Clones this object. Don't override this method in subclasses; instead override copyStateFrom.

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

copyStateFrom

public void copyStateFrom(MapGraphic nother)

Override to implement state copying and cloning. Call super.copyStateFrom first to handle superclass state. Deep-copies data values and graphics information; only copies references to datatype, style, and legend.

getGraphicType

public java.lang.String getGraphicType()

Thematic category of the graphic, used for legending.

setGraphicType

public void setGraphicType(java.lang.String newType)

getDataType

public java.lang.String getDataType()

Data type of the graphic, used to define the data fields, labels, etc.

setDataType

public void setDataType(java.lang.String newType)

getDataID

public int getDataID()

Gets the value of dataID

Returns:

the value of dataID

setDataID

public void setDataID(int argDataID)

Sets the value of dataID

Parameters:

argDataID - Value to assign to this.dataID
