Class Summary

Package org.geotoolkit.referencing.factory.wkt Description

Authority factories for CRS parsed from Well Known Text (WKT). This package contains two main implementations:

• PropertyAuthorityFactory (and its PropertyEpsgFactory specialization) for parsing CRS from a property file.
• DirectPostgisFactory for parsing CRS from the "spatial_ref_sys" table of a PostGIS database:.

The public implementations provided in this package does not cache the CRS - each call to a createFoo method will trig a new WKT parsing. In order to get implementations that cache the CRS, the AuthorityFactoryProvider convenience class can be used.

By default, the classes defined in this package are not registered for use though the FactoryFinder. The only subclass automatically registered is PropertyEpsgFactory, which is defined in another package. For all other classes, users shall either instantiate and use a class directly, or create a subclass and register it themself.
