public class ClassList<T>
extends java.lang.Object

ClassList is a list of classes for use with ImageReader or ImageWriter, parsed from a configuration file such as readers.txt or writers.txt.

When constructing a ClassList object, each line of the configuration file is parsed using the following rules:

• all text following a hash symbol # is interpreted as comments and ignored
• a key-value pair options can be specified for a given class by using the square brackets [] and an equal separator =
• multiple options can be passed for each class and need to be separated using a comma,

For instance, constructing a ClassList object using the absolute path to a configuration file containing the following lines:

 # List of classes
 package1.class1
 package2.class2 # a simple class
 package3.class3[key1=value1,key2=value2] # a class with options
 

will attempt to create a list of three classes . Additionally, if the last class is added, two key/value pairs will be stored in the options map: package3.class3.key1=value and package3.class3.key2=value2.

Constructor Detail

ClassList

public ClassList(java.lang.Class<T> base)

Constructs a list of classes, initially empty.

Parameters:

base - Base class to which all classes are assignable.

ClassList

public ClassList(java.lang.String file,
                 java.lang.Class<T> base)
          throws java.io.IOException

Constructs a list of classes from the given configuration file.

Parameters:

file - Configuration file containing the list of classes.

base - Base class to which all classes are assignable.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if the file cannot be read.

ClassList

public ClassList(java.lang.String file,
                 java.lang.Class<T> base,
                 java.lang.Class<?> location)
          throws java.io.IOException

Constructs a list of classes from the given configuration file.

Parameters:

file - Configuration file containing the list of classes.

base - Base class to which all classes are assignable.

location - Class indicating which package to search for the file. If null, 'file' is interpreted as an absolute path name.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if the file cannot be read.

Method Detail

parseOptions

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> parseOptions(java.lang.String s)

Parses one or more options from a string.

Parameters:

s - A string containing a series of options formatted as key1=value1,key2=value2.

Returns:

a map populated with the parsed key/value pairs

parseLine

public void parseLine(java.lang.String line)

Parses a class from a string including options and comments. This function assumes the string is formatted as package.class[key1=value1,key2=value2] # comments. Options will be parsed and stored in a local map. If the class can be loaded, then each key/value pair will be stored in the options as package.class.key/value.

Parameters:

line - A string containing the class, options and comments

parseFile

Parses a list of classes from a configuration file.

Parameters:

file - Configuration file containing the list of classes.

location - Class indicating which package to search for the file. If null, 'file' is interpreted as an absolute path name.
