public class DefaultKeywords extends ISOMetadata implements Keywords
Keywords, their type and reference source. The following property is mandatory in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:
MD_Keywords   └─keyword…… Commonly used word(s) or formalised word(s) or phrase(s) used to describe the subject.

Limitations

  • Instances of this class are not synchronized for multi-threading. Synchronization, if needed, is caller's responsibility.
  • Serialized objects of this class are not guaranteed to be compatible with future Apache SIS releases. Serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Apache SIS. For long term storage, use XML instead.

    • DefaultKeywords

      public DefaultKeywords()
      Constructs an initially empty keywords.

    • DefaultKeywords

      public DefaultKeywords(CharSequence... keywords)
      Creates keywords initialized to the given key word.
      Parameters:
      keywords - commonly used words or formalised words or phrases used to describe the subject, or null if none.

    • DefaultKeywords

      public DefaultKeywords(Keywords object)
      Constructs a new instance initialized with the values from the specified metadata object. This is a shallow copy constructor, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
      Parameters:
      object - the metadata to copy values from, or null if none.

  • Method Details

    • castOrCopy

      public static DefaultKeywords castOrCopy(Keywords object)
      Returns a SIS metadata implementation with the values of the given arbitrary implementation. This method performs the first applicable action in the following choices:
      • If the given object is null, then this method returns null.
      • Otherwise if the given object is already an instance of Default­Keywords, then it is returned unchanged.
      • Otherwise a new Default­Keywords instance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
      Parameters:
      object - the object to get as a SIS implementation, or null if none.
      Returns:
      a SIS implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or null if the argument was null.

    • getKeywords

      public Collection<InternationalString> getKeywords()
      Returns commonly used word(s) or formalised word(s) or phrase(s) used to describe the subject.
      Specified by:
      get­Keywords in interface Keywords
      Returns:
      word(s) or phrase(s) used to describe the subject.

    • setKeywords

      public void setKeywords(Collection<? extends InternationalString> newValues)
      Sets commonly used word(s) or formalised word(s) or phrase(s) used to describe the subject.
      Parameters:
      new­Values - the new keywords.

    • getType

      public KeywordType getType()
      Returns the subject matter used to group similar keywords.
      Specified by:
      get­Type in interface Keywords
      Returns:
      subject matter used to group similar keywords, or null.

    • setType

      public void setType(KeywordType newValue)
      Sets the subject matter used to group similar keywords.
      Parameters:
      new­Value - the new keyword type.

    • getThesaurusName

      public Citation getThesaurusName()
      Returns the name of the formally registered thesaurus or a similar authoritative source of keywords.
      Specified by:
      get­Thesaurus­Name in interface Keywords
      Returns:
      name of registered thesaurus or similar authoritative source of keywords, or null.

    • setThesaurusName

      public void setThesaurusName(Citation newValue)
      Sets the name of the formally registered thesaurus or a similar authoritative source of keywords.
      Parameters:
      new­Value - the new thesaurus name.

    • getKeywordClass

      @UML(identifier="keywordClass", obligation=OPTIONAL, specification=ISO_19115) public DefaultKeywordClass getKeywordClass()
      Returns the user-defined categorization of groups of keywords that extend or are orthogonal to the standardized keyword type codes.
      Upcoming API change — generalization
      The element type will be changed to the Keyword­Class interface when GeoAPI will provide it (tentatively in GeoAPI 3.1).
      Returns:
      user-defined categorization of groups of keywords, or null if none.

    • setKeywordClass

      public void setKeywordClass(DefaultKeywordClass newValue)
      Sets the user-defined categorization of groups of keywords.
      Upcoming API change — generalization
      The argument type will be changed to the Keyword­Class interface when GeoAPI will provide it (tentatively in GeoAPI 3.1).
      Parameters:
      new­Value - new user-defined categorization of groups of keywords.
