Class WKTFileReader

    java.lang.Object
      com.vividsolutions.jts.io.WKTFileReader

    public class WKTFileReader

extends java.lang.Object

Reads a sequence of `Geometry`s in WKT format from a text file. The geometries in the file may be separated by any amount of whitespace and newlines.

Constructor Summary
`WKTFileReader(java.io.File file, WKTReader wktReader)` Creates a new `WKTFileReader` given the `File` to read from and a `WKTReader` to use to parse the geometries.
`WKTFileReader(java.io.Reader reader, WKTReader wktReader)` Creates a new `WKTFileReader`, given a `Reader` to read from.
`WKTFileReader(java.lang.String filename, WKTReader wktReader)` Creates a new `WKTFileReader`, given the name of the file to read from.

Method Summary
`java.util.List` `read()` Reads a sequence of geometries.
`void` `setLimit(int limit)` Sets the maximum number of geometries to read.
`void` `setOffset(int offset)` Sets the number of geometries to skip before storing.

Constructor Detail

### WKTFileReader

    public WKTFileReader(java.io.File file,
                         WKTReader wktReader)

  Creates a new `WKTFileReader` given the `File` to read from and a `WKTReader` to use to parse the geometries.

  Parameters:
    `file` - the `File` to read from
    `wktReader` - the geometry reader to use

### WKTFileReader

    public WKTFileReader(java.lang.String filename,
                         WKTReader wktReader)

  Creates a new `WKTFileReader`, given the name of the file to read from.

  Parameters:
    `filename` - the name of the file to read from
    `wktReader` - the geometry reader to use

### WKTFileReader

    public WKTFileReader(java.io.Reader reader,
                         WKTReader wktReader)

  Creates a new `WKTFileReader`, given a `Reader` to read from.

  Parameters:
    `reader` - the reader to read from
    `wktReader` - the geometry reader to use

Method Detail

### setLimit

    public void setLimit(int limit)

  Sets the maximum number of geometries to read.

  Parameters:
    `limit` - the maximum number of geometries to read

### setOffset

    public void setOffset(int offset)

  Sets the number of geometries to skip before storing.

  Parameters:
    `offset` - the number of geometries to skip

### read

    public java.util.List read()
                        throws java.io.IOException,
                               ParseException

  Reads a sequence of geometries. If an offset is specified, geometries read up to the offset count are skipped. If a limit is specified, no more than `limit` geometries are read.

  Returns:
    the list of geometries read
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException` - if an I/O exception was encountered
    `ParseException` - if an error occured reading a geometry
