implements Distribution
Information about the distributor of and options for obtaining the resource.
 The following properties are mandatory or conditional (i.e. mandatory under some circumstances)
 in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:
 
 
MD_Distribution
   └─distributionFormat……………………………………… Description of the format of the data to be distributed.
       └─formatSpecificationCitation…… Citation/URL of the specification format.
           ├─title…………………………………………………… Name by which the cited resource is known.
           └─date……………………………………………………… Reference date for the cited resource.Limitations
- Instances of this class are not synchronized for multi-threading. Synchronization, if needed, is caller's responsibility.
- Serialized objects of this class are not guaranteed to be compatible with future Apache SIS releases.
       Serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the
       same version of Apache SIS. For long term storage, use XMLinstead.

Constructor Details- 
DefaultDistributionpublic DefaultDistribution()Constructs an initially empty distribution.
- 
DefaultDistributionConstructs a new instance initialized with the values from the specified metadata object. This is a shallow copy constructor, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.- Parameters:
- object- the metadata to copy values from, or- nullif none.

Method Details- 
castOrCopyReturns a SIS metadata implementation with the values of the given arbitrary implementation. This method performs the first applicable action in the following choices:- If the given object is null, then this method returnsnull.
- Otherwise if the given object is already an instance of
       DefaultDistribution, then it is returned unchanged.
- Otherwise a new DefaultDistributioninstance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
 - Parameters:
- object- the object to get as a SIS implementation, or- nullif none.
- Returns:
- a SIS implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the
         given object itself), or nullif the argument was null.
 
- If the given object is
