All Implemented Interfaces:

Layer

public class FeatureLayer
extends AbstractLayer

A Layer is a collection of Features building a thematic 'unit' waterways or country borders for example. Features can be added or removed from the layer. A Feature can e changed by a modul of the application using the layer because only references to Features are stored within a layer.
