Method Detail
-
getFormatName
public java.lang.String getFormatName()
Returns "text";- Specified by:
getFormatNamein interfaceStarTableWriter- Overrides:
getFormatNamein classAbstractTextTableWriter- Returns:
- "text"
-
getMimeType
public java.lang.String getMimeType()
Description copied from interface:StarTableWriterReturns a string suitable for use as the value of a MIME Content-Type header. If no suitable MIME type is available or known, one of "application/octet-stream" (for binary formats) or "text/plain" for ASCII ones) is recommended.- Specified by:
getMimeTypein interfaceStarTableWriter- Overrides:
getMimeTypein classAbstractTextTableWriter- Returns:
- MIME content type
-
looksLikeFile
public boolean looksLikeFile(java.lang.String location)
Returns true if the location argument is equal to "-", indicating standard output.- Specified by:
looksLikeFilein interfaceStarTableWriter- Parameters:
location- the location name (probably filename)- Returns:
- true iff it looks like a file this writer would normally write
-
writeStarTables
public void writeStarTables(TableSequence tableSeq, java.io.OutputStream out) throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface:MultiStarTableWriterWrites an array of StarTable objects to a given output stream. The implementation can assume that the stream is suitable for direct writing (for instance it should not normally wrap it in aBufferedOutputStream), and should not close it at the end of the call.- Specified by:
writeStarTablesin interfaceMultiStarTableWriter- Parameters:
tableSeq- sequence of tables to writeout- destination stream- Throws:
java.io.IOException
-
writeStarTables
public void writeStarTables(TableSequence tableSeq, java.lang.String location, StarTableOutput sto) throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface:MultiStarTableWriterWrites an array of StarTable objects to a given location. Implementations are free to interpret the location argument in any way appropriate for them. Typically however the location will simply be used to get an output stream (for instance interpreting it as a filename). In this case the sto argument should normally be used to turn location into a stream.- Specified by:
writeStarTablesin interfaceMultiStarTableWriter- Parameters:
tableSeq- sequence of tables to writelocation- destination for tablessto- StarTableOutput instance- Throws:
java.io.IOException
-
getMaxWidth
public int getMaxWidth()
Description copied from class:AbstractTextTableWriterReturns the maximum width for a given column. Values longer than this may be truncated.- Specified by:
getMaxWidthin classAbstractTextTableWriter- Returns:
- maximum permitted column width in characters
-
formatValue
protected java.lang.String formatValue(java.lang.Object val, ValueInfo vinfo, int width)Description copied from class:AbstractTextTableWriterFormats a data value for output.- Specified by:
formatValuein classAbstractTextTableWriter- Parameters:
val- the valuevinfo- the metadata object describing val's typewidth- maximum preferred width into which the value should be formatted- Returns:
- formatted string meaning value, preferably no longer than width characters
-
printSeparator
protected void printSeparator(java.io.OutputStream strm, int[] colwidths) throws java.io.IOExceptionDescription copied from class:AbstractTextTableWriterOutputs a decorative separator line, of the sort you might find between the column headings and the table data.- Specified by:
printSeparatorin classAbstractTextTableWriter- Parameters:
strm- stream to write intocolwidths- column widths in characters- Throws:
java.io.IOException
-
printColumnHeads
protected void printColumnHeads(java.io.OutputStream strm, int[] colwidths, ColumnInfo[] cinfos) throws java.io.IOExceptionDescription copied from class:AbstractTextTableWriterOutputs headings for the table columns.- Specified by:
printColumnHeadsin classAbstractTextTableWriter- Parameters:
strm- stream to write intocolwidths- column widths in characterscinfos- array of column headings- Throws:
java.io.IOException
-
printLine
protected void printLine(java.io.OutputStream strm, int[] colwidths, java.lang.String[] data) throws java.io.IOExceptionDescription copied from class:AbstractTextTableWriterOutputs a line of table data.- Specified by:
printLinein classAbstractTextTableWriter- Parameters:
strm- stream to write intocolwidths- column widths in charactersdata- array of strings to be output, one per column- Throws:
java.io.IOException
-
printParam
protected void printParam(java.io.OutputStream strm, java.lang.String name, java.lang.String value, java.lang.Class<?> clazz) throws java.io.IOExceptionDescription copied from class:AbstractTextTableWriterOutputs a parameter and its value.- Specified by:
printParamin classAbstractTextTableWriter- Parameters:
strm- stream to write intoname- parameter namevalue- formatted parameter valueclazz- type of value- Throws:
java.io.IOException
