Detailed Description

This class writes ESRI Shapefiles.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

NetTopologySuite.IO.ShapefileWriter.ShapefileWriter	(	string	filename,
		ShapeGeometryType	geomType
	)

Initializes a buffered writer where you can write shapes individually to the file.

Parameters

filename	The filename
geomType	The geometry type

NetTopologySuite.IO.ShapefileWriter.ShapefileWriter

(

IGeometryFactory

geometryFactory

)

Initializes a new instance of the ShapefileWriter class with the given GeometryFactory.

Parameters

geometryFactory

Member Function Documentation

void NetTopologySuite.IO.ShapefileWriter.Write

(

IGeometry

geometry

)

Adds a shape to the shapefile. You must have used the constrcutor with a filename to use this method!

Parameters

geometry

void NetTopologySuite.IO.ShapefileWriter.Write	(	string	filename,
		IGeometryCollection	geometryCollection
	)

Method to write a collection of IGeometrys to a file named filename

Assumes the type given for the first geometry is the same for all subsequent geometries. For example, is, if the first Geometry is a Multi-polygon/ Polygon, the subsequent geometies are Muli-polygon/ polygon and not lines or points. The dbase file for the corresponding shapefile contains one column called row. It contains the row number.

Parameters

filename	The name of the file
geometryCollection	The collection of geometries

static void NetTopologySuite.IO.ShapefileWriter.WriteDummyDbf ( string  filename, int  recordCount  )

static

Parameters

filename
recordCount

static void NetTopologySuite.IO.ShapefileWriter.WriteGeometryCollection ( string  filename, IGeometryCollection  geometryCollection  )

static

Method to write a collection of geometries to a shapefile on disk.

Assumes the type given for the first geometry is the same for all subsequent geometries. For example, is, if the first Geometry is a Multi-polygon/ Polygon, the subsequent geometies are Muli-polygon/ polygon and not lines or points. The dbase file for the corresponding shapefile contains one column called row. It contains the row number.

Parameters

filename	The filename to write to (minus the .shp extension).
geometryCollection	The GeometryCollection to write.
