Overview

This RFC is for adding spatial operator combinations support.

Motivation

Allows implementation of the RELATE spatial filter.

[TODO]

Proposed Solution

A number of changes in FDO are proposed:

1) Add new FdoSpatialOperations_Relate to FdoSpatialOperations enumeration

2) Assign values to FdoSpatialOperations so they can be bitmapped:

enum FdoSpatialOperations {

FdoSpatialOperations_EnvelopeIntersects = 0x0000, FdoSpatialOperations_Relate = 0x0001, FdoSpatialOperations_Contains = 0x0002, FdoSpatialOperations_Crosses = 0x0004, FdoSpatialOperations_Disjoint = 0x0008, FdoSpatialOperations_Equals = 0x0010, FdoSpatialOperations_Intersects = 0x0020, FdoSpatialOperations_Overlaps = 0x0040, FdoSpatialOperations_Touches = 0x0080, FdoSpatialOperations_Within = 0x0100, FdoSpatialOperations_CoveredBy = 0x0200, FdoSpatialOperations_Inside = 0x0400

};

3) Enhance FdoSpatialCondition to handle a bitmapped mask of spatial operators. Avoid creating a new set of constructors just for RELATE by adding a extra optional parameter to existing constructors. Add setter and getter for the mask.

class FdoSpatialCondition : public FdoGeometricCondition { ...

/ \param relateMask / Input bitmapped FdoSpatialOperations mask for the RELATE spatial operation / / \return / Returns FdoSpatialCondition / Throws "Invalid parameter" exception in case relateMask > 0 and the operation is not RELATE /

FDO_API static FdoSpatialCondition* Create(FdoIdentifier* propertyName, FdoSpatialOperations operation, FdoExpression* geometry, FdoInt32 relateMask = -1);

The same extra optional parameter will be added all the constructors.

/ Sets the bitmapped value of combined spatial operator(s) for RELATE usage. / Throws "Invalid parameter" exception in case: / value > 0 and the spatial operation is not RELATE / value <= 0 and the spatial operation is RELATE / value is not a valid bitmapped FdoSpatialOperations mask

FDO_API void SetRelateMask( FdoInt32 value );

/ Gets the bitmapped value of combined spatial operators.

FDO_API FdoInt32 GetRelateMask();

}
