Constructor Detail

TextWriterStream

public TextWriterStream(PrintStream out,
                HandlerList<TextWriterWriterInterface<?>> writers)

Constructor.

Parameters:

out - Actual stream to write to

writers - Handlers for various data types

Method Detail

commentPrint

public void commentPrint(Object line)

Print an object into the comments section

Parameters:

line - object to print into commments

commentPrintLn

public void commentPrintLn(Object line)

Print an object into the comments section with trailing newline.

Parameters:

line - object to print into comments

commentPrintLn

public void commentPrintLn()

Print a newline into the comments section.

commentPrintSeparator

public void commentPrintSeparator()

Print a separator line in the comments section.

inlinePrint

public void inlinePrint(Object o)

Print data into the inline part of the file. Data is sanitized: newlines are replaced with spaces, and text containing separators is put in quotes. Quotes and escape characters are escaped.

Parameters:

o - object to print

inlinePrintNoQuotes

public void inlinePrintNoQuotes(Object o)

Print data into the inline part of the file WITHOUT checking for separators (and thus quoting).

Parameters:

o - object to print.

flush

public void flush()

Flush output: write inline data, then write comment section. Reset streams.

quotePrintln

private void quotePrintln(PrintStream outStream,
                String data)

Quoted println. All lines written will be prefixed with QUOTE

Parameters:

outStream - output stream to write to

data - data to print

getWriterFor

public TextWriterWriterInterface<?> getWriterFor(Object o)

Retrieve an appropriate writer from the handler list.

Parameters:

o - query object

Returns:

appropriate write, if available

normalizationRestore

public <O> O normalizationRestore(O v)

Restore a vector undoing any normalization that was applied. (This class does not support normalization, it is only provided by derived classes, which will then have to use generics.)

Type Parameters:

O - Object class

Parameters:

v - vector to restore

Returns:

restored value.

isForceincomments

protected boolean isForceincomments()

Test force-in-comments flag.

Returns:

flag value

setForceincomments

protected void setForceincomments(boolean forceincomments)

Set the force-in-comments flag.

Parameters:

forceincomments - the new flag value
