Constructor Detail

Position

public Position()
Default constructor.


Position

public Position(org.xml.sax.Attributes atts)
Attribute constructor. Looks up the attributes in the parameter and casts them from strings appropriately

Parameters:
atts: - the attribute list.
Method Detail

writeMAGEML

public void writeMAGEML(java.io.Writer out)
                 throws java.io.IOException
writeMAGEML This method is responsible for assembling the attribute and association data into XML. It creates the object tag and then calls the writeAttributes and writeAssociation methods.

Overrides:
writeMAGEML in class Extendable
Throws:
java.io.IOException

emptyMAGEobject

public boolean emptyMAGEobject()

writeAttributes

public void writeAttributes(java.io.Writer out)
                     throws java.io.IOException
writeAttributes This method is responsible for assembling the attribute data into XML. It calls the super method to write out all attributes of this class and it's ancestors.

Overrides:
writeAttributes in class Extendable
Throws:
java.io.IOException

writeAssociations

public void writeAssociations(java.io.Writer out)
                       throws java.io.IOException
writeAssociations This method is responsible for assembling the association data into XML. It calls the super method to write out all associations of this class's ancestors.

Overrides:
writeAssociations in class Extendable
Throws:
java.io.IOException

setX

public void setX(java.lang.Float x)
Set method for x

Parameters:
value - to set

getX

Set method for y

Parameters:
value - to set

getY

public java.lang.Float getY()
Get method for y

Returns:
value of the attribute

getModelClassName

public java.lang.String getModelClassName()
Overrides:
getModelClassName in class Extendable

setDistanceUnit

public void setDistanceUnit(DistanceUnit distanceUnit)
Set method for distanceUnit

Specified by:
setDistanceUnit in interface HasDistanceUnit
