ilog.views.maps
is
the common interface for readers. All the classes that implement this
interface can be used to read cartographic data, whatever the original
format. JViews Maps provides
a number of predefined readers, all of which, implement this interface.
These readers are described in detail in Readers and writers. ilog.views.maps
is
the common interface for renderers. All the classes that implement
this interface can be used to translate an IlvMapFeature into a graphic object. JViews Maps provides a default class ( IlvDefaultFeatureRenderer)
implementing this interface and being able to render most of the IlvMapFeature
returned
by the JViews Maps predefined
readers. A specific renderer can also be provided by a reader (method IlvMapFeatureIterator.getDefaultRenderer()
).IlvMapStyle
class should
be used in conjunction with an IlvMapLayer. In this case, the IlvMapLayer
applies
the style to the objects within that layer. This can be used to change
the appearance of a layer dynamically without reloading the map. Some
attributes are layer specific, such as, layer visibility, and layer
transparency
