Class AbstractNode

java.lang.Object

com.vividsolutions.jts.index.strtree.AbstractNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

Boundable, Serializable

public abstract class AbstractNode
extends Object
implements Boundable, Serializable

A node of an AbstractSTRtree. A node is one of:

• empty
• an interior node containing child AbstractNodes
• a leaf node containing data items (ItemBoundables).

A node stores the bounds of its children, and its level within the index tree.

Constructors

Constructor and Description
AbstractNode() Default constructor required for serialization.
AbstractNode(int level) Constructs an AbstractNode at the given level in the tree

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	addChildBoundable(Boundable childBoundable) Adds either an AbstractNode, or if this is a leaf node, a data object (wrapped in an ItemBoundable)
protected abstract Object	computeBounds() Returns a representation of space that encloses this Boundable, preferably not much bigger than this Boundable's boundary yet fast to test for intersection with the bounds of other Boundables.
Object	getBounds() Gets the bounds of this node
List	getChildBoundables() Returns either child AbstractNodes, or if this is a leaf node, real data (wrapped in ItemBoundables).
int	getLevel() Returns 0 if this node is a leaf, 1 if a parent of a leaf, and so on; the root node will have the highest level
boolean	isEmpty() Tests whether there are any Boundables at this node.
int	size() Gets the count of the Boundables at this node.

Constructor Detail

AbstractNode

public AbstractNode()

Default constructor required for serialization.

AbstractNode

public AbstractNode(int level)

Constructs an AbstractNode at the given level in the tree

Parameters:

level - 0 if this node is a leaf, 1 if a parent of a leaf, and so on; the root node will have the highest level

Method Detail

getChildBoundables

public List getChildBoundables()

Returns either child AbstractNodes, or if this is a leaf node, real data (wrapped in ItemBoundables).

computeBounds

protected abstract Object computeBounds()

Returns a representation of space that encloses this Boundable, preferably not much bigger than this Boundable's boundary yet fast to test for intersection with the bounds of other Boundables. The class of object returned depends on the subclass of AbstractSTRtree.

Returns:

an Envelope (for STRtrees), an Interval (for SIRtrees), or other object (for other subclasses of AbstractSTRtree)

AbstractSTRtree.IntersectsOp

getBounds

public Object getBounds()

Gets the bounds of this node

Specified by:

getBounds in interface Boundable

Returns:

the object representing bounds in this index

getLevel

public int getLevel()

Returns 0 if this node is a leaf, 1 if a parent of a leaf, and so on; the root node will have the highest level

size

public int size()

Gets the count of the Boundables at this node.

Returns:

the count of boundables at this node

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

Tests whether there are any Boundables at this node.

Returns:

true if there are boundables at this node

addChildBoundable

public void addChildBoundable(Boundable childBoundable)

Adds either an AbstractNode, or if this is a leaf node, a data object (wrapped in an ItemBoundable)
