/** \ingroup core * A convenience class for writing vector files to disk. There are two possibilities how to use this class: 1. static call to QgsVectorFileWriter::writeAsShapefile(...) which saves the whole vector layer 2. create an instance of the class and issue calls to addFeature(...) Currently supports only writing to shapefiles, but shouldn't be a problem to add capability to support other OGR-writable formats. */ class QgsVectorFileWriter { %TypeHeaderCode #include #include %End public: enum OptionType { Set, String, Int, Hidden }; class Option { public: Option( const QString& docString, QgsVectorFileWriter::OptionType type ); virtual ~Option(); QString docString; QgsVectorFileWriter::OptionType type; }; class SetOption : QgsVectorFileWriter::Option { public: SetOption( const QString& docString, const QStringList& values, const QString& defaultValue, bool allowNone = false ); QSet values; QString defaultValue; bool allowNone; }; class StringOption: QgsVectorFileWriter::Option { public: StringOption( const QString& docString, const QString& defaultValue = QString() ); QString defaultValue; }; class IntOption: QgsVectorFileWriter::Option { public: IntOption( const QString& docString, int defaultValue ); int defaultValue; }; class BoolOption : QgsVectorFileWriter::SetOption { public: BoolOption( const QString& docString, bool defaultValue ); }; class HiddenOption : QgsVectorFileWriter::Option { public: HiddenOption( const QString& value ); QString mValue; }; struct MetaData { MetaData(); MetaData( const QString& longName, const QString& trLongName, const QString& glob, const QString& ext, const QMap& driverOptions, const QMap& layerOptions ); QString longName; QString trLongName; QString glob; QString ext; QMap driverOptions; QMap layerOptions; }; enum WriterError { NoError, ErrDriverNotFound, ErrCreateDataSource, ErrCreateLayer, ErrAttributeTypeUnsupported, ErrAttributeCreationFailed, ErrProjection, ErrFeatureWriteFailed, ErrInvalidLayer, }; enum SymbologyExport { NoSymbology, //export only data FeatureSymbology, //Keeps the number of features and export symbology per feature SymbolLayerSymbology //Exports one feature per symbol layer (considering symbol levels) }; /** Write contents of vector layer to an (OGR supported) vector formt * @param layer layer to write * @param fileName file name to write to * @param fileEncoding encoding to use * @param destCRS pointer to CRS to reproject exported geometries to * @param driverName OGR driver to use * @param onlySelected write only selected features of layer * @param errorMessage pointer to buffer fo error message * @param datasourceOptions list of OGR data source creation options * @param layerOptions list of OGR layer creation options * @param skipAttributeCreation only write geometries * @param newFilename QString pointer which will contain the new file name created (in case it is different to fileName). * @param symbologyExport symbology to export * @param symbologyScale scale of symbology * @param filterExtent if not a null pointer, only features intersecting the extent will be saved (added in QGIS 2.4) * @param overrideGeometryType set to a valid geometry type to override the default geometry type for the layer.
