Interface SelectViaCopyToArray<T extends FeatureStructure>

Type Parameters:
T - the type of the element
All Known Implementing Classes:
FSArray, FSArrayList, FSHashSet, FSLinkedHashSet
public interface SelectViaCopyToArray<T extends FeatureStructure>
Classes which provide a toArrayForSelect() method that returns a FeatureStructure[] can implement this to enable the class to be used as a "select" source T extends FeatureStructure because FSArray with no typing needs to default to FeatureStructure for backwards compatibility
