Recent Development

For the 2.2.x branch the API module has:

• @completed goal@

Module Status

The API module is pretty terrible, although designed to capture the API that I have checked for consistency we are going
to have to wait for the Feature Module branch to come home before we see an improvement.

Here is what the module can tell you right now about GeoTools:

• the API here is pretty good, based on a specification and so on
• for work like Filter or Styling you will see a migration plan to stable geoapi interfaces
• for work like DataStore it represents an API we are happy with

And here is what you will not see:

• Any "FactoryFinder" or any geotools "glue" code that covers for lack of consistency
• Code that patches the API usability - such as DataUtilities
