Class CharacterInput

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.manifoldcf.core.interfaces.CharacterInput

Direct Known Subclasses:

TempFileCharacterInput

public abstract class CharacterInput
extends java.lang.Object

This class represents a lightweight length-determined character stream. It is used as a parameter in parameterized queries that use strings. There are no implied semantics in this class around managing the stream itself. These semantics must be handled by a derived class.

Field Summary

static java.lang.String	_rcsid
protected long	charLength
protected java.lang.String	hashValue
protected java.io.Reader	stream

Constructor Summary

CharacterInput()
Construct from nothing.

Method Summary

protected abstract void	calculateHashValue() Calculate the datum's hash value
protected abstract void	calculateLength() Calculate the datum's length in characters
protected void	closeStream() Close any open reader
void	discard() Discard this object permanently
void	doneWithStream()
long	getCharacterLength()
java.lang.String	getHashValue()
java.io.Reader	getStream()
abstract java.io.InputStream	getUtf8Stream() Open a Utf8 stream directly
protected abstract void	openStream() Open a reader, for use by a caller, until closeStream is called
abstract CharacterInput	transfer() Transfer to a new object; this causes the current object to become "already discarded"
