Member Function Documentation

static ShapefileDataReader NetTopologySuite.IO.Shapefile.CreateDataReader	(	string	filename,
		GeometryFactory	geometryFactory
	)

static

Returns an ShapefileDataReader representing the data in a shapefile.

Parameters

filename	The filename (minus the . and extension) to read.
geometryFactory	The geometry factory to use when creating the objects.

static DataTable NetTopologySuite.IO.Shapefile.CreateDataTable	(	string	filename,
		string	tableName,
		GeometryFactory	geometryFactory
	)

static

Creates a DataTable representing the information in a shape file.

Parameters

filename	The filename (minus the . and extension) to read.
tableName	The name to give to the table.
geometryFactory	The geometry factory to use when creating the objects.

static ShapeHandler NetTopologySuite.IO.Shapefile.GetShapeHandler ( ShapeGeometryType type )

static

Returns the appropriate class to convert a shaperecord to an OGIS geometry given the type of shape.

Parameters

type	The shapefile type.

Returns: An instance of the appropriate handler to convert the shape record to a Geometry object.

static ShapeGeometryType NetTopologySuite.IO.Shapefile.GetShapeType ( IGeometry geom )

static

Given a geomtery object, returns the equivalent shape file type.

Parameters

geom	A Geometry object.

static int NetTopologySuite.IO.Shapefile.ImportShapefile	(	string	filename,
		string	connectionstring,
		string	tableName
	)

static

Imports a shapefile into a database table.

This method assumes a table has already been crated in the database. Calling this method does not close the connection that is passed in.
