OGRFeature C++ API

OGRFeature 클래스

class OGRFeature

A simple feature, including geometry and attributes.

Public Functions

explicit OGRFeature(OGRFeatureDefn*)

Constructor.

Note that the OGRFeature will increment the reference count of its defining OGRFeatureDefn. Destruction of the OGRFeatureDefn before destruction of all OGRFeatures that depend on it is likely to result in a crash.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_Create().

Parameters

poDefnIn – feature class (layer) definition to which the feature will adhere.

ConstFieldIterator begin() const

Return begin of field value iterator.

Using this iterator for standard range-based loops is safe, but due to implementation limitations, you shouldn’t try to access (dereference) more than one iterator step at a time, since you will get a reference to the same object (FieldValue) at each iteration step.

Since

GDAL 2.3

ConstFieldIterator end() const

Return end of field value iterator.

const FieldValue operator[](int iField) const

Return a field value.

Since

GDAL 2.3

Parameters

iField – the field to fetch, from 0 to GetFieldCount()-1. This is not checked by the method !

Returns

the field value.

FieldValue operator[](int iField)

Return a field value.

Since

GDAL 2.3

Parameters

iField – the field to fetch, from 0 to GetFieldCount()-1. This is not checked by the method !

Returns

the field value.

const FieldValue operator[](const char *pszFieldName) const

Return a field value.

Since

GDAL 2.3

Parameters

Since

GDAL 2.3

Parameters

pszFieldName – field name

Returns

the field value, or throw a FieldNotFoundException if not found.

inline OGRFeatureDefn *GetDefnRef()

Fetch feature definition.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_GetDefnRef().

Returns

a reference to the feature definition object.

inline const OGRFeatureDefn *GetDefnRef() const

a reference to the feature definition object.

OGRErr SetGeometryDirectly(OGRGeometry*)

Set feature geometry.

This method updates the features geometry, and operate exactly as SetGeometry(), except that this method assumes ownership of the passed geometry (even in case of failure of that function).

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_SetGeometryDirectly().

Note

This method has only an effect on the in-memory feature object. If this object comes from a layer and the modifications must be serialized back to the datasource, OGR_L_SetFeature() must be used afterwards. Or if this is a new feature, OGR_L_CreateFeature() must be used afterwards.

Parameters

poGeomIn – new geometry to apply to feature. Passing NULL value here is correct and it will result in deallocation of currently assigned geometry without assigning new one.

Returns

OGRERR_NONE if successful, or OGR_UNSUPPORTED_GEOMETRY_TYPE if the geometry type is illegal for the OGRFeatureDefn (checking not yet implemented).

OGRErr SetGeometry(const OGRGeometry*)

Set feature geometry.

This method updates the features geometry, and operate exactly as SetGeometryDirectly(), except that this method does not assume ownership of the passed geometry, but instead makes a copy of it.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_SetGeometry().

Note

This method has only an effect on the in-memory feature object. If this object comes from a layer and the modifications must be serialized back to the datasource, OGR_L_SetFeature() must be used afterwards. Or if this is a new feature, OGR_L_CreateFeature() must be used afterwards.

Parameters

poGeomIn – new geometry to apply to feature. Passing NULL value here is correct and it will result in deallocation of currently assigned geometry without assigning new one.

Returns

void DumpReadable(FILE*, char **papszOptions = nullptr) const

Dump this feature in a human readable form.

This dumps the attributes, and geometry; however, it doesn’t definition information (other than field types and names), nor does it report the geometry spatial reference system.

A few options can be defined to change the default dump :

• DISPLAY_FIELDS=NO : to hide the dump of the attributes

• DISPLAY_STYLE=NO : to hide the dump of the style string

• DISPLAY_GEOMETRY=NO : to hide the dump of the geometry

• DISPLAY_GEOMETRY=SUMMARY : to get only a summary of the geometry

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_DumpReadable().

Parameters

• fpOut – the stream to write to, such as stdout. If NULL stdout will be used.

• papszOptions – NULL terminated list of options (may be NULL)

OGRErr SetFrom(const OGRFeature*, int = TRUE)

Set one feature from another.

Field values are copied by corresponding field names. Field types do not have to exactly match. SetField() method conversion rules will be applied as needed.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_SetFrom().

Parameters

• poSrcFeature – the feature from which geometry, and field values will be copied.

• bForgiving – TRUE if the operation should continue despite lacking output fields matching some of the source fields.

Returns

OGRERR_NONE if the operation succeeds, even if some values are not transferred, otherwise an error code.

OGRErr SetFrom(const OGRFeature*, const int*, int = TRUE)

Set one feature from another.

Overwrite the contents of this feature from the geometry and attributes of another. The poSrcFeature does not need to have the same OGRFeatureDefn. Field values are copied according to the provided indices map. Field types do not have to exactly match. SetField() method conversion rules will be applied as needed. This is more efficient than OGR_F_SetFrom() in that this doesn’t lookup the fields by their names. Particularly useful when the field names don’t match.

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_SetFromWithMap().

Parameters

• poSrcFeature – the feature from which geometry, and field values will be copied.

• panMap – Array of the indices of the feature’s fields stored at the corresponding index of the source feature’s fields. A value of -1 should be used to ignore the source’s field. The array should not be NULL and be as long as the number of fields in the source feature.

• bForgiving – TRUE if the operation should continue despite lacking output fields matching some of the source fields.

Returns

OGRERR_NONE if the operation succeeds, even if some values are not transferred, otherwise an error code.

OGRErr SetFieldsFrom(const OGRFeature*, const int*, int = TRUE)

Set fields from another feature.

Overwrite the fields of this feature from the attributes of another. The FID and the style string are not set. The poSrcFeature does not need to have the same OGRFeatureDefn. Field values are copied according to the provided indices map. Field types do not have to exactly match. SetField() method conversion rules will be applied as needed. This is more efficient than OGR_F_SetFrom() in that this doesn’t lookup the fields by their names. Particularly useful when the field names don’t match.

Parameters

• poSrcFeature – the feature from which geometry, and field values will be copied.

• panMap – Array of the indices of the feature’s fields stored at the corresponding index of the source feature’s fields. A value of -1 should be used to ignore the source’s field. The array should not be NULL and be as long as the number of fields in the source feature.

• bForgiving – TRUE if the operation should continue despite lacking output fields matching some of the source fields.

Returns

OGRERR_NONE if the operation succeeds, even if some values are not transferred, otherwise an error code.

int Validate(int nValidateFlags, int bEmitError) const

Validate that a feature meets constraints of its schema.

The scope of test is specified with the nValidateFlags parameter.

Regarding OGR_F_VAL_WIDTH, the test is done assuming the string width must be interpreted as the number of UTF-8 characters. Some drivers might interpret the width as the number of bytes instead. So this test is rather conservative (if it fails, then it will fail for all interpretations).

This method is the same as the C function OGR_F_Validate().

Since

GDAL 2.0

Parameters

• nValidateFlags – OGR_F_VAL_ALL or combination of OGR_F_VAL_NULL, OGR_F_VAL_GEOM_TYPE, OGR_F_VAL_WIDTH and OGR_F_VAL_ALLOW_NULL_WHEN_DEFAULT, OGR_F_VAL_ALLOW_DIFFERENT_GEOM_DIM with ‘|’ operator

• bEmitError – TRUE if a CPLError() must be emitted when a check fails

Returns

TRUE if all enabled validation tests pass.

void FillUnsetWithDefault(int bNotNullableOnly, char **papszOptions)

Parameters

poStyleTable – new style table (ownership transferred to the object)

inline const char *GetNativeData() const

Returns the native data for the feature.

The native data is the representation in a “natural” form that comes from the driver that created this feature, or that is aimed at an output driver. The native data may be in different format, which is indicated by GetNativeMediaType().

Note that most drivers do not support storing the native data in the feature object, and if they do, generally the NATIVE_DATA open option must be passed at dataset opening.

The “native data” does not imply it is something more performant or powerful than what can be obtained with the rest of the API, but it may be useful in round-tripping scenarios where some characteristics of the underlying format are not captured otherwise by the OGR abstraction.

This function is the same as the C function OGR_F_GetNativeData().

OGRFeatureDefn 클래스

class OGRFeatureDefn

Definition of a feature class or feature layer.

This object contains schema information for a set of OGRFeatures. In table based systems, an OGRFeatureDefn is essentially a layer. In more object oriented approaches (such as SF CORBA) this can represent a class of features but doesn’t necessarily relate to all of a layer, or just one layer.

This object also can contain some other information such as a name and potentially other metadata.

It is essentially a collection of field descriptions (OGRFieldDefn class). Starting with GDAL 1.11, in addition to attribute fields, it can also contain multiple geometry fields (OGRGeomFieldDefn class).

It is reasonable for different translators to derive classes from OGRFeatureDefn with additional translator specific information.

Public Functions

explicit OGRFeatureDefn(const char *pszName = nullptr)

• sMin – Minimum value. Which member in the OGRField enum must be read depends on the field type. If no minimum is set (might not be supported by all backends), then initialize the value with OGR_RawField_SetUnset().

• bMinIsInclusive – Whether the minimum value is included in the range.

• sMax – Minimum value. Which member in the OGRField enum must be read depends on the field type. If no maximum is set (might not be supported by all backends), then initialize the value with OGR_RawField_SetUnset().

• bMaxIsInclusive – Whether the minimum value is included in the range.

inline virtual OGRRangeFieldDomain *Clone() const override

Clone.

Return a cloned object, or nullptr in case of error.

inline const OGRField &GetMin(bool &bIsInclusiveOut) const

Get the minimum value.

Which member in the returned OGRField enum must be read depends on the field type.

If no minimum value is set, the OGR_RawField_IsUnset() will return true when called on the result.

This is the same as the C function OGR_RangeFldDomain_GetMin().

Parameters

bIsInclusiveOut – set to true if the minimum is included in the range.

inline const OGRField &GetMax(bool &bIsInclusiveOut) const

Get the maximum value.

Which member in the returned OGRField enum must be read depends on the field type.

If no maximum value is set, the OGR_RawField_IsUnset() will return true when called on the result.

This is the same as the C function OGR_RangeFldDomain_GetMax().

Parameters

bIsInclusiveOut – set to true if the maximum is included in the range.

OGRGlobFieldDomain 클래스

class OGRGlobFieldDomain : public OGRFieldDomain

Definition of a field domain for field content validated by a glob.

Globs are matching expression like “*[a-z][0-1]?”

Public Functions

OGRGlobFieldDomain(const std::string &osName, const std::string &osDescription, OGRFieldType eFieldType, OGRFieldSubType eFieldSubType, const std::string &osBlob)

Constructor.

This is the same as the C function OGR_GlobFldDomain_Create().

Parameters

• osName – Domain name.

• osDescription – Domain description.

• eFieldType – Field type.

• eFieldSubType – Field subtype.

• osBlob – Blob expression

inline virtual OGRGlobFieldDomain *Clone() const override

Clone.

Return a cloned object, or nullptr in case of error.

inline const std::string &GetGlob() const

Get the glob expression.

This is the same as the C function OGR_GlobFldDomain_GetGlob().
