Class KmlNode

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    KmlContainer, KmlGroundOverlay, KmlNetworkLink, KmlPhotoOverlay, KmlPlacemark, KmlScreenOverlay, KmlTour

    public abstract class KmlNode
    extends Object
    A single node within a KML document.

    A KmlNode corresponds to the KML concept of a Feature. It is an abstract type that describes common properties that are common to all KML Features, such as: name, description, visibility, and view point etc.

    The following table maps KML Feature Types to ArcGIS Runtime types:

    KML Feature Types
    KML Feature Type Runtime Type Notes
    Container KmlContainer Abstract type. Contains properties common to KmlDocument and KmlFolder.
    Document KmlDocument
    Folder KmlFolder
    Placemark KmlPlacemark
    OverlayN/AProperties can be found on individual overlay subtypes instead.
    GroundOverlay KmlGroundOverlay
    ScreenOverlayKmlScreenOverlay
    PhotoOverlay KmlPhotoOverlay
    NetworkLinkKmlNetworkLink

    Examining individual nodes may be useful for: viewing attributes of the KML data, seeing the organization/structure within the KmlDataset, toggling visibility of KML features, and navigating to specific KML features.

    It should be noted that a typical KML document will have multiple levels of nested KML nodes. Therefore to accurately traverse through all of the KML node information in a KmlDataset, it is recommended to recursively test all KmlNodes to see if they contain additional child KmlNodes.

      • getViewpoint

        public KmlViewpoint getViewpoint()
        Gets the KML node's viewpoint or null if no Camera or LookAt is specified for the node.

        The KML view point is the specified vantage point for looking at the node. This can be used to show a particular node in the view (for example, if a user selected it in a table of contents).

        KML viewpoints can be converted to Runtime viewpoints for use with a GeoView. See the guide documentation and samples for details.

        Returns:

        • KmlNode.RefreshStatus.IN_PROGRESS - Invalidate the node and its children. Applications may wish to show an appropriate UI cue such as a spinning wheel on top of the node's table of contents icon to indicate in progress status and to restrict user interaction with the node.
        • KmlNode.RefreshStatus.COMPLETED - Read and update the node's properties and its children.
        • KmlNode.RefreshStatus.FAILED - Application may call getRefreshError() to get the reason for failure. Also, applications may wish to show an appropriate UI cue such as a red X with the node's table of contents icon to indicate the failed status.

      • saveAsAsync

        public ListenableFuture<Void> saveAsAsync​(String filepath)
        Asynchronously saves the KML node and any referenced local files into a zipped KMZ archive(.kmz).

        The node will be saved to a KMZ file to ensure that any referenced files are available locally when sharing the file with others.

        If this method is called on a leaf node (e.g. KmlPlacemark, KmlGroundOverlay, etc), only that node and its referenced files will be saved. If this method is called on container node (e.g. KmlDocument, KmlFolder), the node and all of its children and referenced files will be saved. If this method is called on a KMLNetworkLink, the link will be saved but the children will not. This is because the children will simply be refetched when the saved KMLNetworkLink is loaded.

        Saving referenced files will differ based on the type of reference. For HTTP paths, the path will be saved as is but the referenced file will not be zipped into the archive, as it will simply be refetched when the new KMZ is loaded. For relative paths, the path will be saved as is and the referenced file will be zipped relative to the root of the KMZ file. For absolute paths, the path will be converted to a relative path, and the referenced file will be zipped into a files folder at the root of the KMZ file. For example, C:/icons/some_icon.png would be converted to files/some_icon.png and stored at that location in the KMZ file.

        The filename supports unicode characters as well as nested directories. It must be non-empty and there must not be an existing file located there. An ArcGIS runtime exception will be thrown if the file path doesn't end with the extension KMZ. Saving a node to a KMZ file requires an ArcGIS Runtime 'Standard' license level.

        Parameters:
        filepath - a file path with the extension (.kmz) to which the node should be saved
        Returns:
        a ListenableFuture to execute the operation asynchronously. Add a listener to the Future to know when the saving is done.
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if filepath is null or empty
