Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	addArea(int rowfrom, short colfrom, int rowto, short colto) Add an area to consider a merged cell.
java.lang.Object	clone()
protected void	fillFields(RecordInputStream in) called by the constructor, should set class level fields.
MergeCellsRecord.MergedRegion	getAreaAt(int index) return the MergedRegion at the given index.
short	getNumAreas() get the number of merged areas.
int	getRecordSize() gives the current serialized size of the record.
short	getSid() return the non static version of the id for this record.
void	removeAreaAt(int area) essentially unmerge the cells in the "area" stored at the passed in index
int	serialize(int offset, byte[] data) called by the class that is responsible for writing this sucker.
void	setNumAreas(short numareas) Deprecated. We now link the size to the actual array of merged regions
java.lang.String	toString() get a string representation of the record (for biffview/debugging)
protected void	validateSid(short id) called by constructor, should throw runtime exception in the event of a record passed with a differing ID.

MergeCellsRecord

public MergeCellsRecord()

MergeCellsRecord

public MergeCellsRecord(RecordInputStream in)

Constructs a MergedCellsRecord and sets its fields appropriately

Parameters:

in - the RecordInputstream to read the record from

Method Detail

fillFields

protected void fillFields(RecordInputStream in)

Description copied from class: Record

called by the constructor, should set class level fields. Should throw runtime exception for bad/icomplete data.

Specified by:

fillFields in class Record

Parameters:

in - the RecordInputstream to read the record from

getNumAreas

public short getNumAreas()

get the number of merged areas. If this drops down to 0 you should just go ahead and delete the record.

Returns:

number of areas

setNumAreas

public void setNumAreas(short numareas)

Deprecated. We now link the size to the actual array of merged regions

set the number of merged areas. You do not need to call this if you use addArea, it will be incremented automatically or decremented when an area is removed. If you are setting this to 0 then you are a terrible person. Just remove the record. (just kidding about you being a terrible person..hehe)

Parameters:

numareas - number of areas

See Also:

getNumAreas()

addArea

public int addArea(int rowfrom,
          short colfrom,
          int rowto,
          short colto)

Add an area to consider a merged cell. The index returned is only gauranteed to be correct provided you do not add ahead of or remove ahead of it (in which case you should increment or decrement appropriately....in other words its an arrayList)

Parameters:

rowfrom - - the upper left hand corner's row

colfrom - - the upper left hand corner's col

rowto - - the lower right hand corner's row

colto - - the lower right hand corner's col

Returns:

new index of said area (don't depend on it if you add/remove)

removeAreaAt

public void removeAreaAt(int area)

essentially unmerge the cells in the "area" stored at the passed in index

Parameters:

area - index

getAreaAt

public MergeCellsRecord.MergedRegion getAreaAt(int index)

return the MergedRegion at the given index.

Returns:

MergedRegion representing the area that is Merged (r1,c1 - r2,c2)

getRecordSize

public int getRecordSize()

Description copied from class: Record

gives the current serialized size of the record. Should include the sid and reclength (4 bytes).

Overrides:

getRecordSize in class Record

getSid

public short getSid()

Description copied from class: Record

return the non static version of the id for this record.

Specified by:

getSid in class Record

serialize

public int serialize(int offset,
            byte[] data)

Description copied from class: Record

called by the class that is responsible for writing this sucker. Subclasses should implement this so that their data is passed back in a byte array.

Specified by:

serialize in class Record

Parameters:

offset - to begin writing at

data - byte array containing instance data

Returns:

number of bytes written

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from class: Record

get a string representation of the record (for biffview/debugging)

Overrides:

toString in class Record

validateSid

protected void validateSid(short id)

Description copied from class: Record

called by constructor, should throw runtime exception in the event of a record passed with a differing ID.

Specified by:

validateSid in class Record

Parameters:

id - alleged id for this record

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Overrides:

clone in class Record
