  • Method Details

    • create

      CoordinateSequence create(Coordinate[] coordinates)
      Returns a CoordinateSequence based on the given array. Whether the array is copied or simply referenced is implementation-dependent. This method must handle null arguments by creating an empty sequence.
      Parameters:
      coordinates - the coordinates

    • create

      CoordinateSequence create(CoordinateSequence coordSeq)
      Creates a CoordinateSequence which is a copy of the given CoordinateSequence. This method must handle null arguments by creating an empty sequence.
      Parameters:
      coordSeq - the coordinate sequence to copy

    • create

      CoordinateSequence create(int size, int dimension)
      Creates a CoordinateSequence of the specified size and dimension. For this to be useful, the CoordinateSequence implementation must be mutable.

      If the requested dimension is larger than the CoordinateSequence implementation can provide, then a sequence of maximum possible dimension should be created. An error should not be thrown.

      Parameters:
      size - the number of coordinates in the sequence
      dimension - the dimension of the coordinates in the sequence (if user-specifiable, otherwise ignored)
