Class PolygonBuilder


  • public final class PolygonBuilder
    extends MultipartBuilder
    Helper class for building immutable Polygon geometries.

    Use the constructors to initialize the builder with a SpatialReference-once set, the SpatialReference cannot be changed. The initial shape stored in the builder can also be initialized in the constructors, by passing in existing geometries or collections. Change the contents of the shape by using the mutable PartCollection accessible from MultipartBuilder.getParts(). Call the toGeometry() method to create a new immutable Polygon from the current state of this builder.

      • PolygonBuilder

        public PolygonBuilder​(SpatialReference spatialReference)
        Creates a new empty PolygonBuilder with the given SpatialReference. SpatialReference cannot be changed after instantiation.
        Parameters:
        spatialReference - the SpatialReference of the new builder. May be null.

      • PolygonBuilder

        public PolygonBuilder​(Polygon polygon)
        Creates a new PolygonBuilder by copying the parts from the given Polygon. The SpatialReference of the new builder will match that of the given Polygon. Use this constructor in workflows that create a modified version of an existing geometry, for example feature or graphic editing workflows.

        Prior to v100.12, only polygons without curves could be used; passing in a polygon where Geometry.hasCurves() is true would throw an exception.

        From v100.12, polygons with curves are supported.

        Parameters:
        polygon - the Polygon used to initialize the new builder

      • PolygonBuilder

        public PolygonBuilder​(PointCollection points)
        Creates a new PolygonBuilder containing a copy of the Points in the given PointCollection. The SpatialReference of the new builder will match that of the given PointCollection.
        Parameters:
        points - the PointCollection used to initialise the new builder

      • PolygonBuilder

        public PolygonBuilder​(PointCollection points,
                              SpatialReference spatialReference)
        Creates a new PolygonBuilder containing a copy of the Points in the given PointCollection, and with the given SpatialReference.

        This overload can be used to initialize a PolygonBuilder with a specific SpatialReference from an existing PointCollection that has a null SpatialReference (the points are assigned the given SpatialReference-they are not projected).

        Parameters:
        points - the PointCollection containing points copied to the new builder
        spatialReference - the SpatialReference of the new builder
        Throws:
        ArcGISRuntimeException - if the SpatialReference of points does not match the match the spatialReference argument.

        part - the Part used to initialise the new builder

    • Method Detail

      • toGeometry

        public Polygon toGeometry()
        Returns a new Polygon based on the current state of this builder. This method can be called as many times as required for any specific instance; it does not affect the state of the builder, and returns a new Polygon each time.

        Any gaps between the Segments in each part of the returned Polygon will be filled by new connecting LineSegments.

        Specified by:
        toGeometry in class GeometryBuilder
        Returns:
        a new Polygon based on the current state of this builder

        100.0.0
      • toPolyline

        public Polyline toPolyline()
        Creates a polyline with the values in this builder.
        Returns:
        a polyline with the values in this builder
        Since:
