Interface ISextanteDataObject

All Known Subinterfaces:
ISextanteLayer, ISextanteRasterLayer
All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractSextanteRasterLayer, OpenJUMPSextanteRasterLayer
public interface ISextanteDataObject
Interface for data objects (layers and tables). This interface should be used to wrap other data objects, so they are compatible with SEXTANTE and thus can be used as inputs to geoalgorithms

    • getBaseDataObject

      Object getBaseDataObject()
      Returns the base data object (i.e. the object that this class wraps, which contains the data itself)
      Returns:
      the base data object

    • getName

      String getName()
      Returns the name of this data object
      Returns:
      the name of this data object

    • setName

      void setName(String sName)
      Sets a new name for this object
      Parameters:
      sName - the new name

    • getFilename

      String getFilename()
      Returns the filename associated to this data object.
      Returns:
      the filename associated to this data object. Can be null, since the object wrapped by this class doesn't have to be file-based.

    • postProcess

      void postProcess() throws Exception
      This method post-processes the object after it has been created. If, for instance, data are kept in memory before they are dumped to file, this method should write that file.
      Throws:
      Exception - if an Exception occurs during post-processing

    • open

      void open()
