 factory.setNamespace(original.getNamespace());
 factory.setNillable(original.isNillable());
 factory.setDefaultGeometry(original.getDefaultGeometry()); 
 

Parameters:

original - The FeatureType to obtain information from.

Deprecated.

Returns a string representation of this factory.

Overrides:
