Hi Jody and all,
Working on FeatureSource javadocs. Can anyone put the following into
simple words for me...
* Though it's a common practice when dealing with {...@link
SimpleFeatureType}
* and {...@link SimpleFeature} to assume they're equal. There's no conflict
* (as per the dynamic typing system the {...@code org.opengis.feature}
package
* defines) in a Feature and its type sharing the same name, as well as in a
* GML schema an element declaration and a type definition may be named the
* same. Yet, the distinction becomes important as we get rid of that
* assumption and thus allow to reuse a type definition for different
* FeatureSoruces, decoupling the descriptor (homologous to the Feature
* element declaration in a GML schema) from its type definition.
(from the docs for getName method)
cheers
Michael
