5 TableContentClass | 
6.1 Index Mode
The
LocatorClass
is a subclass of the
TableClass
. Locator objects do not, however, behave like other Table objects. The Locator object is a specific object designed to be used in tandem with a linked Table object. An action taken on the Locator object will perform a searching action on the linked Table object. In most cases, you will simply want to include a Locator object in your application and link it to your Table. (You implement the actual searching algorithms in your Table object.) You do not need to subclass or add any behavior to the Locator object.
Each Table-Locator pair is placed within a parent TableContent. In the current version of GEOS, multiple tables may not appear under a TableContent (excepting, of course, that
LocatorClass
is actually a subclass of
TableClass
itself). The following information mirrors information appearing in Handling Locator Searches. Consult that section for information about implementing a search within your Table object. The information provided here is solely for completeness' sake.
