Re: [udig-devel] Obtain geometries

[Jesse Eichar <jeichar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To get geometries from a layer you need to ask for a FeatureSource 
object from the layer:

FeatureSource source=layer.getResource( FeatureSource.class, 
progressMonitor);

(You need the org.geotools.feature.FeatureSource class).   Once you have 
a feature source you can get all the features from the source by:

FeatureCollection collection=source.getFeatures();

It is a feature collect and has all the normal collection methods. 

*WARNING:* don't forget to close your iterator after using one:

collections.close(iterator);

Cheers,

Jesse
