## Detailed Description

General GNM class which represents a geography network of common format.

Since
  GDAL 2.1

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ AbortSQL()

OGRErr GDALDataset::AbortSQL | ( |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

Abort any SQL statement running in the data store.

This function can be safely called from any thread (pending that the dataset object is still alive). Driver implementations will make sure that it can be called in a thread-safe way.

This might not be implemented by all drivers. At time of writing, only SQLite, GPKG and PG drivers implement it

This method is the same as the C method GDALDatasetAbortSQL()

Since
  GDAL 3.2.0

## ◆ AddBand()

CPLErr GDALDataset::AddBand | ( | GDALDataType | eType,
|  | char ** | papszOptions = `nullptr`
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Add a band to a dataset.

This method will add a new band to the dataset if the underlying format supports this action. Most formats do not.

Note that the new GDALRasterBand is not returned. It may be fetched after successful completion of the method by calling GDALDataset::GetRasterBand(GDALDataset::GetRasterCount()) as the newest band will always be the last band.

Parameters

  eType | the data type of the pixels in the new band.
  papszOptions | a list of NAME=VALUE option strings. The supported options are format specific. NULL may be passed by default.

Returns
  CE_None on success or CE_Failure on failure.

## ◆ AddFieldDomain()

bool GDALDataset::AddFieldDomain | ( | std::unique_ptr< OGRFieldDomain > && | domain,
|  | std::string & | failureReason
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Add a field domain to the dataset.

Only a few drivers will support this operation, and some of them might only support it only for some types of field domains. At the time of writing (GDAL 3.3), only the Memory and GeoPackage drivers support this operation. A dataset having at least some support for this operation should report the ODsCAddFieldDomain dataset capability.

Anticipated failures will not be emitted through the CPLError() infrastructure, but will be reported in the failureReason output parameter.

Note
  Drivers should make sure to update m_oMapFieldDomains in order for the default implementation of GetFieldDomainNames() to work correctly, or alternatively a specialized implementation of GetFieldDomainNames() should be implemented.

Parameters

  domain | The domain definition.
  failureReason | Output parameter. Will contain an error message if an error occurs.

Returns
  true in case of success.

Since
  GDAL 3.3

## ◆ AddRelationship()

bool GDALDataset::AddRelationship | ( | std::unique_ptr< GDALRelationship > && | relationship,
|  | std::string & | failureReason
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Add a relationship to the dataset.

Only a few drivers will support this operation, and some of them might only support it only for some types of relationships.

A dataset having at least some support for this operation should report the GDsCAddRelationship dataset capability.

Anticipated failures will not be emitted through the CPLError() infrastructure, but will be reported in the failureReason output parameter.

When adding a many-to-many relationship (GDALRelationshipCardinality::GRC_MANY_TO_MANY), it is possible to omit the mapping table name (see GDALRelationship::GetMappingTableName) to instruct the driver to create an appropriately named and structured mapping table. Some dataset formats require particular naming conventions and field structures for the mapping table, and delegating the construction of the mapping table to the driver will avoid these pitfalls.

Parameters

  relationship | The relationship definition.
  failureReason | Output parameter. Will contain an error message if an error occurs.

Returns
  true in case of success.

Since
  GDAL 3.6

## ◆ AdviseRead()

CPLErr GDALDataset::AdviseRead | ( | int | nXOff,
|  | int | nYOff,
|  | int | nXSize,
|  | int | nYSize,
|  | int | nBufXSize,
|  | int | nBufYSize,
|  | GDALDataType | eBufType,
|  | int | nBandCount,
|  | int * | panBandMap,
|  | char ** | papszOptions
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Advise driver of upcoming read requests.

Some GDAL drivers operate more efficiently if they know in advance what set of upcoming read requests will be made. The AdviseRead() method allows an application to notify the driver of the region and bands of interest, and at what resolution the region will be read.

Many drivers just ignore the AdviseRead() call, but it can dramatically accelerate access via some drivers.

Depending on call paths, drivers might receive several calls to AdviseRead() with the same parameters.

Parameters

  nXOff | The pixel offset to the top left corner of the region of the band to be accessed. This would be zero to start from the left side.
  nYOff | The line offset to the top left corner of the region of the band to be accessed. This would be zero to start from the top.
  nXSize | The width of the region of the band to be accessed in pixels.
  nYSize | The height of the region of the band to be accessed in lines.
  nBufXSize | the width of the buffer image into which the desired region is to be read, or from which it is to be written.
  nBufYSize | the height of the buffer image into which the desired region is to be read, or from which it is to be written.
  eBufType | the type of the pixel values in the pData data buffer. The pixel values will automatically be translated to/from the GDALRasterBand data type as needed.
  nBandCount | the number of bands being read or written.
  panBandMap | the list of nBandCount band numbers being read/written. Note band numbers are 1 based. This may be NULL to select the first nBandCount bands.
  papszOptions | a list of name=value strings with special control options. Normally this is NULL.

Returns
  CE_Failure if the request is invalid and CE_None if it works or is ignored.

## ◆ BeginAsyncReader()

GDALAsyncReader * GDALDataset::BeginAsyncReader | ( | int | nXOff,
|  | int | nYOff,
|  | int | nXSize,
|  | int | nYSize,
|  | void * | pBuf,
|  | int | nBufXSize,
|  | int | nBufYSize,
|  | GDALDataType | eBufType,
|  | int | nBandCount,
|  | int * | panBandMap,
|  | int | nPixelSpace,
|  | int | nLineSpace,
|  | int | nBandSpace,
|  | char ** | papszOptions
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Sets up an asynchronous data request.

This method establish an asynchronous raster read request for the indicated window on the dataset into the indicated buffer. The parameters for windowing, buffer size, buffer type and buffer organization are similar to those for GDALDataset::RasterIO(); however, this call only launches the request and filling the buffer is accomplished via calls to GetNextUpdatedRegion() on the return GDALAsyncReader session object.

Once all processing for the created session is complete, or if no further refinement of the request is required, the GDALAsyncReader object should be destroyed with the GDALDataset::EndAsyncReader() method.

Note that the data buffer (pData) will potentially continue to be updated as long as the session lives, but it is not deallocated when the session (GDALAsyncReader) is destroyed with EndAsyncReader(). It should be deallocated by the application at that point.

Additional information on asynchronous IO in GDAL may be found at: https://gdal.org/development/rfc/rfc24_progressive_data_support.html

This method is the same as the C GDALBeginAsyncReader() function.

Parameters

  nXOff | The pixel offset to the top left corner of the region of the band to be accessed. This would be zero to start from the left side.
  nYOff | The line offset to the top left corner of the region of the band to be accessed. This would be zero to start from the top.
  nXSize | The width of the region of the band to be accessed in pixels.
  nYSize | The height of the region of the band to be accessed in lines.
  pBuf | The buffer into which the data should be read. This buffer must contain at least nBufXSize * nBufYSize * nBandCount words of type eBufType. It is organized in left to right,top to bottom pixel order. Spacing is controlled by the nPixelSpace, and nLineSpace parameters.
  nBufXSize | the width of the buffer image into which the desired region is to be read, or from which it is to be written.
  nBufYSize | the height of the buffer image into which the desired region is to be read, or from which it is to be written.
  eBufType | the type of the pixel values in the pData data buffer. The pixel values will automatically be translated to/from the GDALRasterBand data type as needed.
  nBandCount | the number of bands being read or written.
  panBandMap | the list of nBandCount band numbers being read/written. Note band numbers are 1 based. This may be NULL to select the first nBandCount bands.
  nPixelSpace | The byte offset from the start of one pixel value in pData to the start of the next pixel value within a scanline. If defaulted (0) the size of the datatype eBufType is used.
  nLineSpace | The byte offset from the start of one scanline in pData to the start of the next. If defaulted the size of the datatype eBufType * nBufXSize is used.
  nBandSpace | the byte offset from the start of one bands data to the start of the next. If defaulted (zero) the value will be nLineSpace * nBufYSize implying band sequential organization of the data buffer.
  papszOptions | Driver specific control options in a string list or NULL. Consult driver documentation for options supported.

Returns
  The GDALAsyncReader object representing the request.

## ◆ BuildMetadataDomainList()

char ** GDALMajorObject::BuildMetadataDomainList | ( | char ** | papszList,
|  | int | bCheckNonEmpty,
|  |  | ...
| ) |  |
| protected inherited

Helper function for custom implementations of GetMetadataDomainList()

Parameters

  papszList | initial list of domains. May be NULL. Will become invalid after function call (use return value)
  bCheckNonEmpty | if TRUE, each candidate domain will be tested to be non empty
  ... | NULL terminated variadic list of candidate domains.

Returns
  NULL or a string list. Must be freed with CSLDestroy()

Since
  GDAL 1.11

## ◆ BuildOverviews()

CPLErr GDALDataset::BuildOverviews | ( | const char * | pszResampling,
|  | int | nOverviews,
|  | const int * | panOverviewList,
|  | int | nListBands,
|  | const int * | panBandList,
|  | GDALProgressFunc | pfnProgress,
|  | void * | pProgressData,
|  | CSLConstList | papszOptions
| ) |  |
| inherited

Build raster overview(s)

If the operation is unsupported for the indicated dataset, then CE_Failure is returned, and CPLGetLastErrorNo() will return CPLE_NotSupported.

Depending on the actual file format, all overviews level can be also deleted by specifying nOverviews == 0. This works at least for external overviews (.ovr), TIFF internal overviews, etc.

Starting with GDAL 3.2, the GDAL_NUM_THREADS configuration option can be set to "ALL_CPUS" or a integer value to specify the number of threads to use for overview computation.

This method is the same as the C function GDALBuildOverviewsEx().

Parameters

  pszResampling | one of "AVERAGE", "AVERAGE_MAGPHASE", "RMS", "BILINEAR", "CUBIC", "CUBICSPLINE", "GAUSS", "LANCZOS", "MODE", "NEAREST", or "NONE" controlling the downsampling method applied.
  nOverviews | number of overviews to build, or 0 to clean overviews.
  panOverviewList | the list of overview decimation factors to build, or NULL if nOverviews == 0.
  nListBands | number of bands to build overviews for in panBandList. Build for all bands if this is 0.
  panBandList | list of band numbers.
  pfnProgress | a function to call to report progress, or NULL.
  pProgressData | application data to pass to the progress function.
  papszOptions | (GDAL >= 3.6) NULL terminated list of options as key=value pairs, or NULL

Returns
  CE_None on success or CE_Failure if the operation doesn't work.

For example, to build overview level 2, 4 and 8 on all bands the following call could be made:

int anOverviewList[3] = { 2, 4, 8 };
poDataset->BuildOverviews( "NEAREST", 3, anOverviewList, 0, nullptr,
GDALDummyProgress, nullptr );

  GDALRegenerateOverviewsEx()

## ◆ CheckNetworkExist()

virtual int GNMNetwork::CheckNetworkExist | ( | const char * | pszFilename,
|  | char ** | papszOptions
| ) |  |
| protected pure virtual

Check if network already exist.

Parameters

  pszFilename | - path to network (folder or database
  papszOptions | - create options

Returns
  TRUE if exist and not overwrite or FALSE

## ◆ CleanupPostFileClosing()

void GDALDataset::CleanupPostFileClosing | ( |  | ) |
| protected inherited

This method should be called by driver implementations in their destructor, after having closed all files, but before having freed resources that are needed for their GetFileList() implementation.

This is used to implement MarkSuppressOnClose behavior.

## ◆ ClearStatistics()

void GDALDataset::ClearStatistics | ( |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

Clear statistics.

Only implemented for now in PAM supported datasets

This is the same as the C function GDALDatasetClearStatistics().

Since
  GDAL 3.2

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

## ◆ CloseDependentDatasets()

int GDALDataset::CloseDependentDatasets | ( |  | ) |
| protected virtual inherited

Drop references to any other datasets referenced by this dataset.

This method should release any reference to other datasets (e.g. a VRT dataset to its sources), but not close the current dataset itself.

If at least, one reference to a dependent dataset has been dropped, this method should return TRUE. Otherwise it should return FALSE. (Failure to return the proper value might result in infinite loop)

This method can be called several times on a given dataset. After the first time, it should not do anything and return FALSE.

The driver implementation may choose to destroy its raster bands, so be careful not to call any method on the raster bands afterwards.

Basically the only safe action you can do after calling CloseDependentDatasets() is to call the destructor.

Note: the only legitimate caller of CloseDependentDatasets() is GDALDriverManager::~GDALDriverManager()

Returns
  TRUE if at least one reference to another dataset has been dropped.

Reimplemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

## ◆ CommitTransaction()

OGRErr GDALDataset::CommitTransaction | ( |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

For datasources which support transactions, CommitTransaction commits a transaction.

If no transaction is active, or the commit fails, will return OGRERR_FAILURE. Datasources which do not support transactions will always return OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION.

Depending on drivers, this may or may not abort layer sequential readings that are active.

This function is the same as the C function GDALDatasetCommitTransaction().

Returns
  OGRERR_NONE on success.

Since
  GDAL 2.0

## ◆ CopyLayer()

OGRLayer * GDALDataset::CopyLayer | ( | OGRLayer * | poSrcLayer,
|  | const char * | pszNewName,
|  | char ** | papszOptions = `nullptr`
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Duplicate an existing layer.

This method creates a new layer, duplicate the field definitions of the source layer and then duplicate each features of the source layer. The papszOptions argument can be used to control driver specific creation options. These options are normally documented in the format specific documentation. The source layer may come from another dataset.

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetCopyLayer() and the deprecated OGR_DS_CopyLayer().

In GDAL 1.X, this method used to be in the OGRDataSource class.

Parameters

  poSrcLayer | source layer.
  pszNewName | the name of the layer to create.
  papszOptions | a StringList of name=value options. Options are driver specific. There is a common option to set output layer spatial reference: DST_SRSWKT. The option should be in WKT format.

Returns
  a handle to the layer, or NULL if an error occurs.

Reimplemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

## ◆ Create()

virtual CPLErr GNMNetwork::Create | ( | const char * | pszFilename,
|  | char ** | papszOptions
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Create network system layers.

Creates the connectivity (the "network path" of data) over the dataset and returns the resulting network. NOTE: This method does not create any connections among features but creates the necessary set of fields, layers, etc. NOTE: After the successful creation the passed dataset must not be modified outside (but can be read as usual). NOTE: For the common network format the creation is forbidden if the passed dataset already has network system layers and OVERWRITE creation option is FALSE.

Parameters

  pszFilename | - A path there the network folder (schema, etc.) will be created. The folder (schema, etc.) name get options.
  papszOptions | - create network options. The create options specific for gnm driver.

Returns
  CE_None on success

Implemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

## ◆ CreateLayer()

OGRLayer * GDALDataset::CreateLayer | ( | const char * | pszName,
|  | OGRSpatialReference * | poSpatialRef = `nullptr`,
|  | OGRwkbGeometryType | eGType = `wkbUnknown`,
|  | char ** | papszOptions = `nullptr`
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

This method attempts to create a new layer on the dataset with the indicated name, coordinate system, geometry type.

The papszOptions argument can be used to control driver specific creation options. These options are normally documented in the format specific documentation. That function will try to validate the creation option list passed to the driver with the GDALValidateCreationOptions() method. This check can be disabled by defining the configuration option GDAL_VALIDATE_CREATION_OPTIONS set to NO.

Drivers should extend the ICreateLayer() method and not CreateLayer(). CreateLayer() adds validation of layer creation options, before delegating the actual work to ICreateLayer().

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetCreateLayer() and the deprecated OGR_DS_CreateLayer().

Example:

#include "gdal.h"
#include "cpl_string.h"
...
OGRLayer *poLayer;
char **papszOptions;
if( !poDS->TestCapability( ODsCCreateLayer ) )
{
...
}
papszOptions = CSLSetNameValue( papszOptions, "DIM", "2" );
poLayer = poDS->CreateLayer( "NewLayer", nullptr, wkbUnknown,
papszOptions );
CSLDestroy( papszOptions );
if( poLayer == NULL )
{
...
}

Parameters

  pszName | the name for the new layer. This should ideally not match any existing layer on the datasource.
  poSpatialRef | the coordinate system to use for the new layer, or NULL if no coordinate system is available. The driver might only increase the reference counter of the object to take ownership, and not make a full copy, so do not use OSRDestroySpatialReference(), but OSRRelease() instead when you are done with the object.
  eGType | the geometry type for the layer. Use wkbUnknown if there are no constraints on the types geometry to be written.
  papszOptions | a StringList of name=value options. Options are driver specific.

Returns
  NULL is returned on failure, or a new OGRLayer handle on success.

## ◆ CreateMaskBand()

CPLErr GDALDataset::CreateMaskBand | ( | int | nFlagsIn | ) |
| virtual inherited

Adds a mask band to the dataset.

The default implementation of the CreateMaskBand() method is implemented based on similar rules to the .ovr handling implemented using the GDALDefaultOverviews object. A TIFF file with the extension .msk will be created with the same basename as the original file, and it will have one band. The mask images will be deflate compressed tiled images with the same block size as the original image if possible. It will have INTERNAL_MASK_FLAGS_xx metadata items set at the dataset level, where xx matches the band number of a band of the main dataset. The value of those items will be the one of the nFlagsIn parameter.

Note that if you got a mask band with a previous call to GetMaskBand(), it might be invalidated by CreateMaskBand(). So you have to call GetMaskBand() again.

Since
  GDAL 1.5.0

Parameters

  nFlagsIn | 0 or combination of GMF_PER_DATASET / GMF_ALPHA. GMF_PER_DATASET will be always set, even if not explicitly specified.

Returns
  CE_None on success or CE_Failure on an error.

## ◆ Delete()

virtual CPLErr GNMNetwork::Delete | ( |  | ) |
| pure virtual

## ◆ DeleteFieldDomain()

bool GDALDataset::DeleteFieldDomain | ( | const std::string & | name,
|  | std::string & | failureReason
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Removes a field domain from the dataset.

Only a few drivers will support this operation.

At the time of writing (GDAL 3.5), only the Memory and GeoPackage drivers support this operation. A dataset having at least some support for this operation should report the ODsCDeleteFieldDomain dataset capability.

Anticipated failures will not be emitted through the CPLError() infrastructure, but will be reported in the failureReason output parameter.

Note
  Drivers should make sure to update m_oMapFieldDomains in order for the default implementation of GetFieldDomainNames() to work correctly, or alternatively a specialized implementation of GetFieldDomainNames() should be implemented.

Parameters

  name | The domain name.
  failureReason | Output parameter. Will contain an error message if an error occurs.

Returns
  true in case of success.

Since
  GDAL 3.5

## ◆ DeleteLayer()

OGRErr GDALDataset::DeleteLayer | ( | int | iLayer | ) |
| virtual inherited

Delete the indicated layer from the datasource.

If this method is supported the ODsCDeleteLayer capability will test TRUE on the GDALDataset.

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetDeleteLayer() and the deprecated OGR_DS_DeleteLayer().

In GDAL 1.X, this method used to be in the OGRDataSource class.

Parameters

  iLayer | the index of the layer to delete.

Returns
  OGRERR_NONE on success, or OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION if deleting layers is not supported for this datasource.

Reimplemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

## ◆ DeleteRelationship()

bool GDALDataset::DeleteRelationship | ( | const std::string & | name,
|  | std::string & | failureReason
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Removes a relationship from the dataset.

Only a few drivers will support this operation.

A dataset having at least some support for this operation should report the GDsCDeleteRelationship dataset capability.

Anticipated failures will not be emitted through the CPLError() infrastructure, but will be reported in the failureReason output parameter.

Parameters

  name | The relationship name.
  failureReason | Output parameter. Will contain an error message if an error occurs.

Returns
  true in case of success.

Since
  GDAL 3.6

## ◆ Dereference()

int GDALDataset::Dereference | ( |  | ) |
| inherited

Subtract one from dataset reference count.

The reference is one after instantiation. Generally when the reference count has dropped to zero the dataset may be safely deleted (closed).

This method is the same as the C GDALDereferenceDataset() function.

Returns
  the post-decrement reference count.

## ◆ DisconnectAll()

virtual CPLErr GNMNetwork::DisconnectAll | ( |  | ) |
| pure virtual

DisconnectAll method clears the network graph.

Returns
  CE_None on success

Implemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

## ◆ EndAsyncReader()

void GDALDataset::EndAsyncReader | ( | GDALAsyncReader * | poARIO | ) |
| virtual inherited

End asynchronous request.

This method destroys an asynchronous io request and recovers all resources associated with it.

This method is the same as the C function GDALEndAsyncReader().

Parameters

  poARIO | pointer to a GDALAsyncReader

## ◆ ExecuteSQL()

OGRLayer * GDALDataset::ExecuteSQL | ( | const char * | pszStatement,
|  | OGRGeometry * | poSpatialFilter,
|  | const char * | pszDialect
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Execute an SQL statement against the data store.

The result of an SQL query is either NULL for statements that are in error, or that have no results set, or an OGRLayer pointer representing a results set from the query. Note that this OGRLayer is in addition to the layers in the data store and must be destroyed with ReleaseResultSet() before the dataset is closed (destroyed).

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetExecuteSQL() and the deprecated OGR_DS_ExecuteSQL().

For more information on the SQL dialect supported internally by OGR review the OGR SQL document. Some drivers (i.e. Oracle and PostGIS) pass the SQL directly through to the underlying RDBMS.

Starting with OGR 1.10, the SQLITE dialect can also be used.

In GDAL 1.X, this method used to be in the OGRDataSource class.

Parameters

  pszStatement | the SQL statement to execute.
  poSpatialFilter | geometry which represents a spatial filter. Can be NULL.
  pszDialect | allows control of the statement dialect. If set to NULL, the OGR SQL engine will be used, except for RDBMS drivers that will use their dedicated SQL engine, unless OGRSQL is explicitly passed as the dialect. Starting with OGR 1.10, the SQLITE dialect can also be used.

Returns
  an OGRLayer containing the results of the query. Deallocate with ReleaseResultSet().

## ◆ FlushCache()

void GDALDataset::FlushCache | ( | bool | bAtClosing = `false` | ) |
| virtual inherited

Flush all write cached data to disk.

Any raster (or other GDAL) data written via GDAL calls, but buffered internally will be written to disk.

The default implementation of this method just calls the FlushCache() method on each of the raster bands and the SyncToDisk() method on each of the layers. Conceptionally, calling FlushCache() on a dataset should include any work that might be accomplished by calling SyncToDisk() on layers in that dataset.

Using this method does not prevent use from calling GDALClose() to properly close a dataset and ensure that important data not addressed by FlushCache() is written in the file.

This method is the same as the C function GDALFlushCache().

Parameters

  bAtClosing | Whether this is called from a GDALDataset destructor

Reimplemented in GNMGenericNetwork, and GDALPamDataset.

## ◆ FromHandle()

This is a C++ iterator friendly version of GetRasterBand().

Typical use is:

for( auto&& poBand: poDS->GetBands() )
{
std::cout << "Band << poBand->GetDescription() << std::endl;
}

See also
  GetRasterBand()

Since
  GDAL 2.3

## ◆ GetDescription()

const char * GDALMajorObject::GetDescription | ( |  | ) | const
| virtual inherited

Fetch object description.

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

This method is the same as the C function GDALGetDescription().

Returns
  non-null pointer to internal description string.

## ◆ GetDriver()

GDALDriver * GDALDataset::GetDriver | ( | void |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

Fetch the driver to which this dataset relates.

This method is the same as the C GDALGetDatasetDriver() function.

## ◆ GetFeatureByGlobalFID()

virtual OGRFeature* GNMNetwork::GetFeatureByGlobalFID | ( | GNMGFID | nGFID | ) |
| pure virtual

GetFeatureByGlobalFID search all network layers for given feature identificator.

Parameters

  nGFID | feature identificator.

Returns
  OGRFeature pointer or NULL. The pointer should be freed via OGRFeature::DestroyFeature().

Implemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

## ◆ GetFeatures()

GDALDataset::Features GDALDataset::GetFeatures | ( |  | ) |
| inherited

Function that return an iterable object over features in the dataset layer.

This is a C++ iterator friendly version of GetNextFeature().

Using this iterator for standard range-based loops is safe, but due to implementation limitations, you shouldn't try to access (dereference) more than one iterator step at a time, since the FeatureLayerPair reference which is returned is reused.

Typical use is:

for( auto&& oFeatureLayerPair: poDS->GetFeatures() )
{
std::cout << "Feature of layer " <<
oFeatureLayerPair.layer->GetName() << std::endl;
oFeatureLayerPair.feature->DumpReadable();
}

| virtual inherited

Returns a list of the names of all field domains stored in the dataset.

Note
  The default implementation assumes that drivers fully populate m_oMapFieldDomains when opening a dataset. If this assumption is incorrect then a specialized implementation of GetFieldDomainNames() must be implemented.

Parameters

  papszOptions | Driver specific options determining how attributes should be retrieved. Pass nullptr for default behavior.

Returns
  list of field domain names

Since
  GDAL 3.5

## ◆ GetFileList()

char ** GNMNetwork::GetFileList | ( | void |  | ) |
| override virtual

Fetch files forming dataset.

Returns a list of files believed to be part of this dataset. If it returns an empty list of files it means there is believed to be no local file system files associated with the dataset (for instance a virtual dataset). The returned file list is owned by the caller and should be deallocated with CSLDestroy().

The returned filenames will normally be relative or absolute paths depending on the path used to originally open the dataset. The strings will be UTF-8 encoded.

This method is the same as the C GDALGetFileList() function.

Returns
  NULL or a NULL terminated array of file names.

Reimplemented from GDALDataset.

## ◆ GetGCPCount()

Returns
  internal projection string or "" if there are no GCPs. It should not be altered, freed or expected to last for long.

## ◆ GetGCPs()

const GDAL_GCP * GDALDataset::GetGCPs | ( |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

Fetch GCPs.

This method is the same as the C function GDALGetGCPs().

Returns
  pointer to internal GCP structure list. It should not be modified, and may change on the next GDAL call.

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

## ◆ GetGCPSpatialRef()

const OGRSpatialReference * GDALDataset::GetGCPSpatialRef | ( |  | ) | const
| virtual inherited

Get output spatial reference system for GCPs.

Same as the C function GDALGetGCPSpatialRef().

When a SRS is not available, null is returned. If used on a dataset where there is a geotransform, and not GCPs, this method returns null. Use GetSpatialRef() instead.

Since
  GDAL 3.0

Returns
  a pointer to an internal object. It should not be altered or freed. Its lifetime will be the one of the dataset object, or until the next call to this method.

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

Fetches the coefficients for transforming between pixel/line (P,L) raster space, and projection coordinates (Xp,Yp) space.

Xp = padfTransform[0] + P*padfTransform[1] + L*padfTransform[2];
Yp = padfTransform[3] + P*padfTransform[4] + L*padfTransform[5];

In a north up image, padfTransform[1] is the pixel width, and padfTransform[5] is the pixel height. The upper left corner of the upper left pixel is at position (padfTransform[0],padfTransform[3]).

The default transform is (0,1,0,0,0,1) and should be returned even when a CE_Failure error is returned, such as for formats that don't support transformation to projection coordinates.

This method does the same thing as the C GDALGetGeoTransform() function.

Parameters

  padfTransform | an existing six double buffer into which the transformation will be placed.

Returns
  CE_None on success, or CE_Failure if no transform can be fetched.

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

| override virtual inherited

Fetch metadata.

The returned string list is owned by the object, and may change at any time. It is formatted as a "Name=value" list with the last pointer value being NULL. Use the CPL StringList functions such as CSLFetchNameValue() to manipulate it.

Note that relatively few formats return any metadata at this time.

This method does the same thing as the C function GDALGetMetadata().

Parameters

  pszDomain | the domain of interest. Use "" or NULL for the default domain.

  NULL or a string list.

Reimplemented from GDALMajorObject.

## ◆ GetMetadataDomainList()

|  | const char * | pszDomain = `""`
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Fetch single metadata item.

The C function GDALGetMetadataItem() does the same thing as this method.

Parameters

## ◆ GetNextFeature()

OGRFeature * GDALDataset::GetNextFeature | ( | OGRLayer ** | ppoBelongingLayer,
|  | double * | pdfProgressPct,
|  | GDALProgressFunc | pfnProgress,
|  | void * | pProgressData
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Fetch the next available feature from this dataset.

This method is intended for the few drivers where OGRLayer::GetNextFeature() is not efficient, but in general OGRLayer::GetNextFeature() is a more natural API.

See GetFeatures() for a C++ iterator version of this method.

The returned feature becomes the responsibility of the caller to delete with OGRFeature::DestroyFeature().

Depending on the driver, this method may return features from layers in a non sequential way. This is what may happen when the ODsCRandomLayerRead capability is declared (for example for the OSM and GMLAS drivers). When datasets declare this capability, it is strongly advised to use GDALDataset::GetNextFeature() instead of OGRLayer::GetNextFeature(), as the later might have a slow, incomplete or stub implementation.

The default implementation, used by most drivers, will however iterate over each layer, and then over each feature within this layer.

This method takes into account spatial and attribute filters set on layers that will be iterated upon.

The ResetReading() method can be used to start at the beginning again.

Depending on drivers, this may also have the side effect of calling OGRLayer::GetNextFeature() on the layers of this dataset.

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetGetNextFeature().

Parameters

  ppoBelongingLayer | a pointer to a OGRLayer* variable to receive the layer to which the object belongs to, or NULL. It is possible that the output of *ppoBelongingLayer to be NULL despite the feature not being NULL.
  pdfProgressPct | a pointer to a double variable to receive the percentage progress (in [0,1] range), or NULL. On return, the pointed value might be negative if determining the progress is not possible.
  pfnProgress | a progress callback to report progress (for GetNextFeature() calls that might have a long duration) and offer cancellation possibility, or NULL.
  pProgressData | user data provided to pfnProgress, or NULL

Returns
  a feature, or NULL if no more features are available.

Since
  GDAL 2.2

## ◆ GetProjectionRef()

const char * GDALDataset::GetProjectionRef | ( | void |  | ) | const
| inherited

Fetch the projection definition string for this dataset.

Same as the C function GDALGetProjectionRef().

The returned string defines the projection coordinate system of the image in OpenGIS WKT format. It should be suitable for use with the OGRSpatialReference class.

When a projection definition is not available an empty (but not NULL) string is returned.

Note
  Startig with GDAL 3.0, this is a compatibility layer around GetSpatialRef()

Returns
  a pointer to an internal projection reference string. It should not be altered, freed or expected to last for long.

|  | GSpacing | nPixelSpace,
|  | GSpacing | nLineSpace,
|  | GSpacing | nBandSpace,
|  | GDALRasterIOExtraArg * | psExtraArg
| ) |  |
| inherited

Read/write a region of image data from multiple bands.

This method allows reading a region of one or more GDALRasterBands from this dataset into a buffer, or writing data from a buffer into a region of the GDALRasterBands. It automatically takes care of data type translation if the data type (eBufType) of the buffer is different than that of the GDALRasterBand. The method also takes care of image decimation / replication if the buffer size (nBufXSize x nBufYSize) is different than the size of the region being accessed (nXSize x nYSize).

The nPixelSpace, nLineSpace and nBandSpace parameters allow reading into or writing from various organization of buffers.

For highest performance full resolution data access, read and write on "block boundaries" as returned by GetBlockSize(), or use the ReadBlock() and WriteBlock() methods.

This method is the same as the C GDALDatasetRasterIO() or GDALDatasetRasterIOEx() functions.

Parameters

  eRWFlag | Either GF_Read to read a region of data, or GF_Write to write a region of data.
  nXOff | The pixel offset to the top left corner of the region of the band to be accessed. This would be zero to start from the left side.
  nYOff | The line offset to the top left corner of the region of the band to be accessed. This would be zero to start from the top.
  nXSize | The width of the region of the band to be accessed in pixels.
  nYSize | The height of the region of the band to be accessed in lines.
  pData | The buffer into which the data should be read, or from which it should be written. This buffer must contain at least nBufXSize * nBufYSize * nBandCount words of type eBufType. It is organized in left to right,top to bottom pixel order. Spacing is controlled by the nPixelSpace, and nLineSpace parameters.
  nBufXSize | the width of the buffer image into which the desired region is to be read, or from which it is to be written.
  nBufYSize | the height of the buffer image into which the desired region is to be read, or from which it is to be written.
  eBufType | the type of the pixel values in the pData data buffer. The pixel values will automatically be translated to/from the GDALRasterBand data type as needed.
  nBandCount | the number of bands being read or written.
  panBandMap | the list of nBandCount band numbers being read/written. Note band numbers are 1 based. This may be NULL to select the first nBandCount bands.
  nPixelSpace | The byte offset from the start of one pixel value in pData to the start of the next pixel value within a scanline. If defaulted (0) the size of the datatype eBufType is used.
  nLineSpace | The byte offset from the start of one scanline in pData to the start of the next. If defaulted (0) the size of the datatype eBufType * nBufXSize is used.
  nBandSpace | the byte offset from the start of one bands data to the start of the next. If defaulted (0) the value will be nLineSpace * nBufYSize implying band sequential organization of the data buffer.
  psExtraArg | (new in GDAL 2.0) pointer to a GDALRasterIOExtraArg structure with additional arguments to specify resampling and progress callback, or NULL for default behavior. The GDAL_RASTERIO_RESAMPLING configuration option can also be defined to override the default resampling to one of BILINEAR, CUBIC, CUBICSPLINE, LANCZOS, AVERAGE or MODE.

Returns
  CE_Failure if the access fails, otherwise CE_None.

|  | CPLErrorNum | err_no,
|  | const char * | fmt,
|  |  | ...
| ) |  |

|  |  | ...
| ) |  |
| inherited

Emits an error related to a dataset.

This function is a wrapper for regular CPLError(). The only difference with CPLError() is that it prepends the error message with the dataset name.

Parameters

  eErrClass | one of CE_Warning, CE_Failure or CE_Fatal.
  err_no | the error number (CPLE_*) from cpl_error.h.
  fmt | a printf() style format string. Any additional arguments will be treated as arguments to fill in this format in a manner similar to printf().

## ◆ ResetReading()

void GDALDataset::ResetReading | ( |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

Reset feature reading to start on the first feature.

This affects GetNextFeature().

Depending on drivers, this may also have the side effect of calling OGRLayer::ResetReading() on the layers of this dataset.

Since
  GDAL 2.2

## ◆ RollbackTransaction()

OGRErr GDALDataset::RollbackTransaction | ( |  | ) |
| virtual inherited

  OGRERR_NONE on success.

Since
  GDAL 2.0

## ◆ SetDescription()

void GDALMajorObject::SetDescription | ( | const char * | pszNewDesc | ) |
| virtual inherited

Set object description.

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

Normally application code should not set the "description" for GDALDatasets. It is handled internally.

This method is the same as the C function GDALSetDescription().

Reimplemented in GDALPamRasterBand.

## ◆ SetGCPs() [1/2]

CPLErr GDALDataset::SetGCPs | ( | int | nGCPCount,
|  | const GDAL_GCP * | pasGCPList,
|  | const char * | pszGCPProjection
| ) |  |
| inherited

Assign GCPs.

This method is the same as the C function GDALSetGCPs().

This method assigns the passed set of GCPs to this dataset, as well as setting their coordinate system. Internally copies are made of the coordinate system and list of points, so the caller remains responsible for deallocating these arguments if appropriate.

Most formats do not support setting of GCPs, even formats that can handle GCPs. These formats will return CE_Failure.

Note
  Startig with GDAL 3.0, this is a compatibility layer around SetGCPs(int, const GDAL_GCP*, const char*)

Parameters

  nGCPCount | number of GCPs being assigned.
  pasGCPList | array of GCP structures being assign (nGCPCount in array).
  pszGCPProjection | the new OGC WKT coordinate system to assign for the GCP output coordinates. This parameter should be "" if no output coordinate system is known.

Returns
  CE_None on success, CE_Failure on failure (including if action is not supported for this format).

## ◆ SetGCPs() [2/2]

CPLErr GDALDataset::SetGCPs | ( | int | nGCPCount,
|  | const GDAL_GCP * | pasGCPList,
|  | const OGRSpatialReference * | poGCP_SRS
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Assign GCPs.

This method is the same as the C function GDALSetGCPs().

This method assigns the passed set of GCPs to this dataset, as well as setting their coordinate system. Internally copies are made of the coordinate system and list of points, so the caller remains responsible for deallocating these arguments if appropriate.

Most formats do not support setting of GCPs, even formats that can handle GCPs. These formats will return CE_Failure.

Since
  GDAL 3.0

Parameters

  nGCPCount | number of GCPs being assigned.
  pasGCPList | array of GCP structures being assign (nGCPCount in array).
  poGCP_SRS | the new coordinate reference system to assign for the GCP output coordinates. This parameter should be null if no output coordinate system is known.

Returns
  CE_None on success, CE_Failure on failure (including if action is not supported for this format).

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

## ◆ SetGeoTransform()

CPLErr GDALDataset::SetGeoTransform | ( | double * | padfTransform | ) |
| virtual inherited

Parameters

  padfTransform | a six double buffer containing the transformation coefficients to be written with the dataset.

Returns
  CE_None on success, or CE_Failure if this transform cannot be written.

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

## ◆ SetMetadata()

GDALDataset::SetMetadata | ( | char ** | papszMetadata,
|  | const char * | pszDomain
| ) |  |
| override virtual inherited

Set metadata.

CAUTION: depending on the format, older values of the updated information might still be found in the file in a "ghost" state, even if no longer accessible through the GDAL API. This is for example the case of the GTiff format (this is not a exhaustive list)

The C function GDALSetMetadata() does the same thing as this method.

Parameters

  papszMetadata | the metadata in name=value string list format to apply.
  pszDomain | the domain of interest. Use "" or NULL for the default domain.

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

Reimplemented from GDALMajorObject.

## ◆ SetMetadataItem()

GDALDataset::SetMetadataItem | ( | const char * | pszName,
|  | const char * | pszValue,
|  | const char * | pszDomain
| ) |  |
| override virtual inherited

Set single metadata item.

CAUTION: depending on the format, older values of the updated information might still be found in the file in a "ghost" state, even if no longer accessible through the GDAL API. This is for example the case of the GTiff format (this is not a exhaustive list)

The C function GDALSetMetadataItem() does the same thing as this method.

Parameters

  pszName | the key for the metadata item to fetch.
  pszValue | the value to assign to the key.

| inherited

Assign GMO_flags.

Parameters

  nNewFlags | new flags.

## ◆ SetProjection()

CPLErr GDALDataset::SetProjection | ( | const char * | pszProjection | ) |
| inherited

Set the projection reference string for this dataset.

The string should be in OGC WKT or PROJ.4 format. An error may occur because of incorrectly specified projection strings, because the dataset is not writable, or because the dataset does not support the indicated projection. Many formats do not support writing projections.

This method is the same as the C GDALSetProjection() function.

Note
  Startig with GDAL 3.0, this is a compatibility layer around SetSpatialRef()

Parameters

  pszProjection | projection reference string.

Returns
  CE_Failure if an error occurs, otherwise CE_None.

## ◆ SetSpatialRef()

CPLErr GDALDataset::SetSpatialRef | ( | const OGRSpatialReference * | poSRS | ) |
| virtual inherited

An error may occur because the dataset is not writable, or because the dataset does not support the indicated projection. Many formats do not support writing projections.

This method is the same as the C GDALSetSpatialRef() function.

Since
  GDAL 3.0

Parameters

  poSRS | spatial reference system object. nullptr can potentially be passed for drivers that support unsetting the SRS.

Returns
  CE_Failure if an error occurs, otherwise CE_None.

Reimplemented in GDALPamDataset.

## ◆ SetStyleTable()

void GDALDataset::SetStyleTable | ( | OGRStyleTable * | poStyleTable | ) |
| virtual inherited

Set dataset style table.

This method operate exactly as SetStyleTableDirectly() except that it does not assume ownership of the passed table.

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetSetStyleTable() and the deprecated OGR_DS_SetStyleTable().

In GDAL 1.X, this method used to be in the OGRDataSource class.

Parameters

  poStyleTable | pointer to style table to set

## ◆ SetStyleTableDirectly()

void GDALDataset::SetStyleTableDirectly | ( | OGRStyleTable * | poStyleTable | ) |
| virtual inherited

Set dataset style table.

This method operate exactly as SetStyleTable() except that it assumes ownership of the passed table.

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetSetStyleTableDirectly() and the deprecated OGR_DS_SetStyleTableDirectly().

In GDAL 1.X, this method used to be in the OGRDataSource class.

Parameters

  poStyleTable | pointer to style table to set

## ◆ StartTransaction()

OGRErr GDALDataset::StartTransaction | ( | int | bForce = `FALSE` | ) |
| virtual inherited

For datasources which support transactions, StartTransaction creates a `transaction.

If starting the transaction fails, will return OGRERR_FAILURE. Datasources which do not support transactions will always return OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION.

Nested transactions are not supported.

All changes done after the start of the transaction are definitely applied in the datasource if CommitTransaction() is called. They may be canceled by calling RollbackTransaction() instead.

At the time of writing, transactions only apply on vector layers.

Datasets that support transactions will advertise the ODsCTransactions capability. Use of transactions at dataset level is generally preferred to transactions at layer level, whose scope is rarely limited to the layer from which it was started.

In case StartTransaction() fails, neither CommitTransaction() or RollbackTransaction() should be called.

If an error occurs after a successful StartTransaction(), the whole transaction may or may not be implicitly canceled, depending on drivers. (e.g. the PG driver will cancel it, SQLite/GPKG not). In any case, in the event of an error, an explicit call to RollbackTransaction() should be done to keep things balanced.

By default, when bForce is set to FALSE, only "efficient" transactions will be attempted. Some drivers may offer an emulation of transactions, but sometimes with significant overhead, in which case the user must explicitly allow for such an emulation by setting bForce to TRUE. Drivers that offer emulated transactions should advertise the ODsCEmulatedTransactions capability (and not ODsCTransactions).

This function is the same as the C function GDALDatasetStartTransaction().

Parameters

  bForce | can be set to TRUE if an emulation, possibly slow, of a transaction mechanism is acceptable.

Returns
  OGRERR_NONE on success.

Since
  GDAL 2.0

## ◆ TestCapability()

int GDALDataset::TestCapability | ( | const char * | pszCap | ) |
| virtual inherited

Test if capability is available.

One of the following dataset capability names can be passed into this method, and a TRUE or FALSE value will be returned indicating whether or not the capability is available for this object.

- ODsCCreateLayer: True if this datasource can create new layers.

- ODsCDeleteLayer: True if this datasource can delete existing layers.

- ODsCCreateGeomFieldAfterCreateLayer: True if the layers of this datasource support CreateGeomField() just after layer creation.

- ODsCCurveGeometries: True if this datasource supports curve geometries.

- ODsCTransactions: True if this datasource supports (efficient) transactions.

- ODsCEmulatedTransactions: True if this datasource supports transactions through emulation.

- ODsCRandomLayerRead: True if this datasource has a dedicated GetNextFeature() implementation, potentially returning features from layers in a non sequential way.

- ODsCRandomLayerWrite: True if this datasource supports calling CreateFeature() on layers in a non sequential way.

The #define macro forms of the capability names should be used in preference to the strings themselves to avoid misspelling.

This method is the same as the C function GDALDatasetTestCapability() and the deprecated OGR_DS_TestCapability().

In GDAL 1.X, this method used to be in the OGRDataSource class.

Parameters

  pszCap | the capability to test.

Returns
  TRUE if capability available otherwise FALSE.

Reimplemented in GNMGenericNetwork.

|  | std::string & | failureReason
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Updates an existing field domain by replacing its definition.

The existing field domain with matching name will be replaced.

Only a few drivers will support this operation, and some of them might only support it only for some types of field domains. At the time of writing (GDAL 3.5), only the Memory driver supports this operation.

Returns
  true in case of success.

Since
  GDAL 3.5

|  | std::string & | failureReason
| ) |  |
| virtual inherited

Updates an existing relationship by replacing its definition.

The existing relationship with matching name will be replaced.

Only a few drivers will support this operation, and some of them might only support it only for some types of relationships. A dataset having at least some support for this operation should report the GDsCUpdateRelationship dataset capability.

Anticipated failures will not be emitted through the CPLError() infrastructure, but will be reported in the failureReason output parameter.
