Serializable

public class UnformattableObjectException
extends UnsupportedOperationException

Thrown by Formattable.toWKT() when an object can't be formatted as WKT. A formatting may fails because an object is too complex for the WKT format capability (for example an engineering CRS with different unit for each axis), or because only some specific implementations can be formatted as WKT.

Method Detail

getUnformattableClass

public Class getUnformattableClass()
Returns the type of the object that can't be formatted. This is often an OpenGIS interface rather than the implementation class. For example if a engineering CRS uses different unit for each axis, then this method may return CoordinateReferenceSystem.class. It doesn't mean that no CRS can be formatted; only that a particular instance of it can't. Other possible classes are ImageDatum, ProjectedCRS, etc.

Since:
2.4

getMessage

public String getMessage()
Returns the detail message. A default message is formatted if none was specified at construction time.

Overrides:
getMessage in class Throwable
