  • Method Details

    • delete

      public void delete()

    • SetMetadata

      public int SetMetadata(Hashtable metadata, String domain)
      Set metadata.

      The metadata is set into the domain specified.

      Parameters:
      metadata - the metadata as a table of (key, value) tuples to apply
      domain - the domain of interest. Use "" or null for the default domain.
      Returns:
      gdalconst.CE_None on success, gdalconst.CE_Failure on failure and gdalconst.CE_Warning if the metadata has been accepted, but is likely not maintained persistently by the underlying object between sessions.

    • SetMetadata

      public int SetMetadata(Hashtable metadata)
      Set metadata.

      The metadata is set into the default domain

      Returns:
      gdalconst.CE_None on success, gdalconst.CE_Failure on failure and gdalconst.CE_Warning if the metadata has been accepted, but is likely not maintained persistently by the underlying object between sessions.
      Since:
      Java bindings 1.7.0

    • GetDescription

      public String GetDescription()
      Fetch object description.

      The semantics of the returned description are specific to the derived type. For Dataset object it is the dataset name. For Band object it is actually a description (if supported) or "".

      Returns:
      description

    • SetDescription

      public void SetDescription(String newDescription)
      Set object description.

      The semantics of the returned description are specific to the derived type. For Dataset object it is the dataset name. For Band object it is actually a description (if supported) or "". Normally application code should not set the "description" for GDALDatasets. It is handled internally.

      Parameters:
      newDescription - new description
