assembleTilesForLevel

public static java.util.Collection<Tile> assembleTilesForLevel(Level level,
                                                               TileFactory tileFactory,
                                                               java.util.Collection<Tile> result)

Creates all tiles for a specified level within a LevelSet.

Parameters:

level - the level to create the tiles for

tileFactory - the tile factory to use for creating tiles.

result - an pre-allocated Collection in which to store the results

Returns:

the result argument populated with the tiles for the specified level

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If any argument is null

intersectsFrustum

public boolean intersectsFrustum(RenderContext rc,
                                 Frustum frustum)

Indicates whether this tile's Cartesian extent intersects a specified frustum.

Parameters:

rc - the current render context

frustum - the frustum of interest

Returns:

true if the specified frustum intersects this tile's extent, otherwise false

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the frustum is null

intersectsSector

public boolean intersectsSector(Sector sector)

Indicates whether this tile intersects a specified sector.

Parameters:

sector - the sector of interest

Returns:

true if the specified sector intersects this tile's sector, otherwise false

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the sector is null

mustSubdivide

public boolean mustSubdivide(RenderContext rc,

Indicates whether this tile should be subdivided based on the current navigation state and a specified detail factor.

Parameters:

rc - the current render context

detailFactor - the detail factor to consider

Returns:

true if the tile should be subdivided, otherwise false

subdivide

public Tile[] subdivide(TileFactory tileFactory)

Returns the four children formed by subdividing this tile. This tile's sector is subdivided into four quadrants as follows: Southwest; Southeast; Northwest; Northeast. A new tile is then constructed for each quadrant and configured with the next level within this tile's LevelSet and its corresponding row and column within that level. This returns null if this tile's level is the last level within its LevelSet.

Parameters:

tileFactory - the tile factory to use to create the children

Returns:

an array containing the four child tiles, or null if this tile's level is the last level

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the tile factory is null

subdivideToCache

public Tile[] subdivideToCache(TileFactory tileFactory,
                               LruMemoryCache<java.lang.String,Tile[]> cache,
                               int cacheSize)

Returns the four children formed by subdividing this tile, drawing those children from a specified cache. The cache is checked for a child collection prior to subdividing. If one exists in the cache it is returned rather than creating a new collection of children. If a new collection is created in the same manner as subdivide(TileFactory) and added to the cache.

Parameters:

tileFactory - the tile factory to use to create the children

cache - a memory cache that may contain pre-existing child tiles.

cacheSize - the cached size of the four child tiles

Returns:

an array containing the four child tiles, or null if this tile's level is the last level

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If any argument is null
