DfsBuilder Class

DfsBuilder Class

Builder for dfs files.

The builder works in two stages. The first stage all header information and information of the dynamic items are provided. In the second stage static items are added. Then a dfs file is ready, and data for the dynamic items can be added.

To go from the first to the second stage by calling CreateFile(String), which will actually create a file on the disc.

To get the final file, call GetFile. After GetFile has been called, no more static items can be added to the file.

Stage 1: The following must be set during stage 1: SetGeographicalProjection(IDfsProjection), SetDataType(Int32), SetTemporalAxis(IDfsTemporalAxis). Furthermore, a number of dynamic items must be added.

Stage 2: Any number of static items can be added. Create the item by using one of the AddStaticItem(String, Array) functions. To create a new static item from scratch, use CreateStaticItemBuilder together with AddStaticItem(IDfsStaticItem).

Methods

	Name	Description
	AddCustomBlock(IDfsCustomBlock)	Adds a custom block.
	AddCustomBlock(String, Array)	Adds a custom block containing the array data. The type of arrayData must be an array of type equivalent to one of the supported DfsSimpleType, e.g. int[].
	AddCustomBlock(String, Byte)	Add a custom block containing byte data.
	AddCustomBlock(String, Double)	Add a custom block containing double data.
	AddCustomBlock(String, Int16)	Add a custom block containing short data.
	AddCustomBlock(String, Int32)	Add a custom block containing int data.
	AddCustomBlock(String, Single)	Add a custom block containing float data.
	AddCustomBlock(String, UInt16)	Add a custom block containing ushort data.
	AddCustomBlock(String, UInt32)	Add a custom block containing uint data.
	AddDynamicItem	Add a dynamic item to the file.
	AddStaticItem(IDfsStaticItem)	Add static item to the file. The static item can come from another file, then the item definition and data is copied over.
	AddStaticItem(String, Array)	Creates and adds a static item storing the arrayData. Use this only when Quantity and SpatialAxis and others are not important. Quantity and spatial axis are set to default dummy values. The type of arrayData must be an array of type equivalent to one of the supported DfsSimpleType, e.g. int[].
	AddStaticItem(String, eumQuantity, Array)	Creates and adds a static item storing the arrayData. Use this only when SpatialAxis is not important. Spatial axis are set to default dummy values. The type of arrayData must be an array of type equivalent to one of the supported DfsSimpleType, e.g. int[].
	Create	Create a new builder that will build a default type of dfs file (with FixedSpace and AllItems)
	CreateDynamicItemBuilder	Create a dynamic item builder, for creating and configuring a new dynamic item.
	CreateFile	Create the file and move from stage 1 to stage 2 of the build process.
	CreateStaticItemBuilder	Create a static item builder, for creating and configuring a new static item.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetFile	Returns the new dfs file
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	SetApplicationTitle	Set the title of the application writing the file. This is a stage 1 method.
	SetApplicationVersionNo	Set the version number of the application writing the file. This is a stage 1 method.
	SetDataType	Set the data type. This is a stage 1 method. The data type tags the file as a special dfs file type. There exists no global system for maintaining these tag-variables. The tag-variables should only be interpreted locally within one model-complex e.g. MIKE 21. The application programmer can tag bathymetries, result files, input files freely.
	SetEncodingKey	Sets the encoding key for compressing the dfs file. See GetEncodeKey(Int32, Int32, Int32) for the definition of the encode key values. Compression is only supported when all dynamic items are of type float. All dynamic items must have a size that is compatible with the encode key values, i.e., Copy xKey[i] < xCount && yKey[y] < yCount && zKey[i] < zCount
	SetFileTitle	Set the title of the file. This is a stage 1 method.
	SetGeographicalProjection	Sets the geographical projection and reference coordinates. This must be set. This is a stage 1 method.
	SetItemStatisticsType	Sets the statistics level StatType of all items in the file
	SetTemporalAxis	Sets the temporal axis of the file. This must be set. This is a stage 1 method.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Validate	Validate will return a string of issues from the item builder. When this returns an empty list, the item has been properly build.
