public class DefaultDistributor extends ISOMetadata implements Distributor
Information about the distributor. The following properties are mandatory or conditional (i.e. mandatory under some circumstances) in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:
MD_Distributor   ├─distributor­Contact……………………………………… Party from whom the resource may be obtained. This list need not be exhaustive.   │   ├─party……………………………………………………………… Information about the parties.   │   │   └─name……………………………………………………… Name of the party.   │   └─role………………………………………………………………… Function performed by the responsible party.   └─distributor­Format………………………………………… Information about the format used by the distributor.       └─format­Specification­Citation…… Citation/URL of the specification format.           ├─title…………………………………………………… Name by which the cited resource is known.           └─date……………………………………………………… Reference date for the cited resource.

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.

  • Constructor Details

    • DefaultDistributor

      public DefaultDistributor()
      Constructs an initially empty distributor.

    • DefaultDistributor

      public DefaultDistributor(ResponsibleParty distributorContact)
      Creates a distributor with the specified contact.
      Parameters:
      distributor­Contact - party from whom the resource may be obtained, or null.

    • DefaultDistributor

      public DefaultDistributor(Distributor 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 DefaultDistributor castOrCopy(Distributor 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 Default­Distributor, then it is returned unchanged.
      • Otherwise a new Default­Distributor 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.

    • getDistributorContact

      public ResponsibleParty getDistributorContact()
      Party from whom the resource may be obtained.
      Upcoming API change — generalization
      As of ISO 19115:2014, Responsible­Party is replaced by the Responsibility parent interface. This change may be applied in GeoAPI 4.0.
      Specified by:
      get­Distributor­Contact in interface Distributor
      Returns:
      party from whom the resource may be obtained, or null.

    • setDistributorContact

      public void setDistributorContact(ResponsibleParty newValue)
      Sets the party from whom the resource may be obtained.
      Upcoming API change — generalization
      As of ISO 19115:2014, Responsible­Party is replaced by the Responsibility parent interface. This change may be applied in GeoAPI 4.0.
      Parameters:
      new­Value - the new distributor contact.

      Provides information about how the resource may be obtained, and related instructions and fee information.
      Specified by:
      get­Distribution­Order­Processes in interface Distributor
      Returns:
      information about how the resource may be obtained.

    • setDistributionOrderProcesses

      Sets information about how the resource may be obtained, and related instructions and fee information.
      Parameters:
      new­Values - the new distribution order processes.

    • getDistributorFormats
