The Geotk coverage module provides the Operations class for convenience, as was shown in the previous section. That class works against a more sophisticated and powerful internal mechanism of the processing package.
The basic pattern of the operations mechanism runs as follows:
with several options for configuration along the way.
The package summary javadoc should contain the full list of available operations. Unfortunately, the system is not automatic so it is possible to create new operations without documenting them.
The full list of available operations can be obtained from the library with:
final DefaultProcessor proc = new DefaultProcessor(null);
for (Operation o : proc.getOperations() ){
System.out.println(o.getName());
System.out.println(o.getDescription());
System.out.println();
}
