public interface Analyzer

Anlyzers are used to search for patterns in a symbology structure. Applied to a given node, the analyzer must :

• Detect patterns that can be seen directly in the node.
• Analyze inner node, if useful, to detect patterns that are present deeper in the style's tree
• Be able to return all the found legends.
• Build, from all the informations thus gathered, a LegendNode that directly describes the cartographic nature of the analyzed node. It won't always be possible, though.
