The main module contains the GeoTools public interfaces that are used by other GeoTools modules (and GeoTools applications). Where possible we make use industry standard terms as provided by OGC and ISO standards. The formal GeoTools public api consists of gt-metadata, jts and the gt-main module. The main module contains the default implementations that are available provided to other GeoTools modules using our factory system. Factories are obtained from an appropriate FactoryFinder, giving applications a chance configure the factory used using the Factory Hints facilities. FilterFactory ff = CommonFactoryFinder.getFilterFactory(); Expression expr = ff.add( expression1, expression2 ); If you find yourself using implementation specific classes chances are you doing it wrong: Expression expr = new AddImpl( expression1, expressiom2 );

The newest version!

/**
 * A symbolizer describes how a feature should appear on a map.
 *
 * The symbolizer defines not just the shape that should appear but also such graphical
 * properties as color and opacity.
 *
 * 
A symbolizer is obtained by specifying one of a small number of different types of symbolizer
 * and then supplying parameters to overide its default behaviour.
 *
 * 
The details of this object are taken from the OGC Styled-Layer Descriptor
 * Report (OGC 02-070) version 1.0.0.:

 * <xsd:element name="PointSymbolizer" substitutionGroup="sld:Symbolizer">
 *   <xsd:annotation>
 *     <xsd:documentation>
 *       A "PointSymbolizer" specifies the rendering of a "graphic symbol"
 *       at a point.

 *
 * Renderers can use this information when displaying styled features, though it must be
 * remembered that not all renderers will be able to fully represent strokes as set out by this
 * interface. For example, opacity may not be supported.
 *
 * 
Notes:
 *
 * 

 *   The graphical parameters and their values are derived from SVG/CSS2 standards with names
 *       and semantics which are as close as possible.
