Detailed Description

Specific import class for handling shape file imports.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__init__()

def __init__	(		self,
			file,
			filter = None,
			control = None,
			collectHdrContents = False,
			maxBulkPoints = 1000,
			defaultLayout = None
	)

creates new shape import object

interface for importing geometry objects from a shpae file

Parameters

[in]	file	shape filename
[in]	filter	filter for subselecting/transforming objects during export
[in]	control	control object for retrieving export progress information
[in]	collectHdrContents	flag for explicitly collecting header information while exporting
[in]	maxBulkPoints	chunk size for bulk points being imported at once
[in]	defaultLayout	default attribute layout for objects while importing (attribute stored within the file, will be extended to this layout)

Member Function Documentation

create()

static

creates new shape import object

interface for importing geometry objects from a shpae file

Parameters

[in]	file	shape filename
[in]	filter	filter for subselecting/transforming objects during export
[in]	control	control object for retrieving export progress information
[in]	collectHdrContents	flag for explicitly collecting header information while exporting
[in]	maxBulkPoints	chunk size for bulk points being imported at once

getTableDefinition()

def getTableDefinition (   file )

static

retrieve the table definition of corresponding dbf file (deprecated. use attribute information in file header instead)

importAttribute()

def importAttribute (   self, *  args, **  kwargs  )

static

possible calls:

• importAttribute(self, dbfAttrIndex: object, ngCol: ColumnSemantic)
• importAttribute(self, dbfAttrIndex: object, ngName: str, ngType: ColumnType)

Parameters

self	(type: object) self pointer
*args	(type: list) mandatory parameter
**kwargs	(type: dict) mandatory parameter

importDBFAttributes()

def importDBFAttributes	(		self,
			flag
	)

enable (default) or disable dbf attribute import. any subsequent importAttribute, v_setAddInfoMapping or v_setSemanticMapping call will automatic re-enable the dbf import flag

setAttributeMapping()

def setAttributeMapping	(		self,
			layout,
			mapping
	)

to come

Parameters

self	(type: ImportShape) self pointer
layout	(type: AddInfoLayout) mandatory parameter
mapping	(type: dict) mandatory parameter
