Overview

   This factory takes a feature with PointInPolygon geometry and splits it into 
   two features. PointInPolygon geometry consists of a point and either a 
   polygon or a donut polygon. This factory breaks such a feature into a feature 
   with the point geometry and another with the polygon or donut polygon 
   geometry. Each output feature gets all attributes of the original, plus any 
   others that the INPUT and OUTPUT clauses add.
   
   Features that match the specified feature type but do not have a geometry of 
   PointInPolygon, are logged to the FME log file. They are then passed out of 
   the factory unchanged.
   
   If either of the OUTPUT clauses is not specified, then that portion of the 
   geometry is thrown away. For example, if only an OUTPUT POINT clause is 
   specified, the polygon geometry will be thrown away.

Assumptions

   The input feature must have PointInPolygon geometry to be split.

Output Tags

   The PIPComponentsFactory supports the following output tags.
   
   POINT
   
      The point portion of the input feature's geometry is output as a point 
      feature. It has all attribute values of the input feature.
   
   POLYGON
   
      The polygon or donut polygon that defined the input PointInPolygon feature 
      is output with this clause. The output polygon has all attributes of the 
      input feature.
   
   REJECTED
   
      Any invalid input features (i.e. non-aggregates) are output with this 
      clause.
