Constructor Detail

MutableSection

public MutableSection()

Creates an empty mutable section.

MutableSection

public MutableSection(Section s)

Constructs a MutableSection by doing a deep copy of an existing Section. All nested Property instances, will be their mutable counterparts in the new MutableSection.

Parameters:

s - The section set to copy

Method Detail

setFormatID

public void setFormatID(ClassID formatID)

Sets the section's format ID.

Parameters:

formatID - The section's format ID

See Also:

setFormatID(byte[]), Section.getFormatID()

setFormatID

public void setFormatID(byte[] formatID)

Sets the section's format ID.

Parameters:

formatID - The section's format ID as a byte array. It components are in big-endian format.

See Also:

setFormatID(ClassID), Section.getFormatID()

setProperties

public void setProperties(Property[] properties)

Sets this section's properties. Any former values are overwritten.

Parameters:

properties - This section's new properties.

setProperty

public void setProperty(int id,
                        java.lang.String value)

Sets the string value of the property with the specified ID.

Parameters:

id - The property's ID

value - The property's value. It will be written as a Unicode string.

See Also:

setProperty(int, long, Object), getProperty(long)

setProperty

public void setProperty(int id,
                        int value)

Sets the int value of the property with the specified ID.

Parameters:

id - The property's ID

value - The property's value.

See Also:

setProperty(int, long, Object), getProperty(long)

setProperty

public void setProperty(int id,
                        long value)

Sets the long value of the property with the specified ID.

Parameters:

id - The property's ID

value - The property's value.

See Also:

setProperty(int, long, Object), getProperty(long)

setProperty

public void setProperty(int id,
                        boolean value)

Sets the boolean value of the property with the specified ID.

Parameters:

id - The property's ID

value - The property's value.

See Also:

setProperty(int, long, Object), getProperty(long)

setProperty

public void setProperty(int id,
                        long variantType,
                        java.lang.Object value)

Sets the value and the variant type of the property with the specified ID. If a property with this ID is not yet present in the section, it will be added. An already present property with the specified ID will be overwritten. A default mapping will be used to choose the property's type.

Parameters:

id - The property's ID.

variantType - The property's variant type.

value - The property's value.

See Also:

setProperty(int, String), getProperty(long), Variant

setProperty

public void setProperty(Property p)

Sets a property.

Parameters:

p - The property to be set.

See Also:

setProperty(int, long, Object), getProperty(long), Variant

removeProperty

public void removeProperty(long id)

Removes a property.

Parameters:

id - The ID of the property to be removed

setPropertyBooleanValue

protected void setPropertyBooleanValue(int id,
                                       boolean value)

Sets the value of the boolean property with the specified ID.

Parameters:

id - The property's ID

value - The property's value

See Also:

setProperty(int, long, Object), getProperty(long), Variant

getSize

public int getSize()

Returns the section's size.

Overrides:

getSize in class Section

Returns:

the section's size.

write

public int write(java.io.OutputStream out)
          throws WritingNotSupportedException,
                 java.io.IOException

Writes this section into an output stream.

Internally this is done by writing into three byte array output streams: one for the properties, one for the property list and one for the section as such. The two former are appended to the latter when they have received all their data.

Parameters:

out - The stream to write into.

Returns:

The number of bytes written, i.e. the section's size.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs

WritingNotSupportedException - if HPSF does not yet support writing a property's variant type.

getPropertyCount

public int getPropertyCount()

Overwrites the super class' method to cope with a redundancy: the property count is maintained in a separate member variable, but shouldn't.

Overrides:

getPropertyCount in class Section

Returns:

The number of properties in this section

getProperties

public Property[] getProperties()

Gets this section's properties.

Overrides:

getProperties in class Section

Returns:

this section's properties.

getProperty

public java.lang.Object getProperty(long id)

Gets a property.

Overrides:

getProperty in class Section

Parameters:

id - The ID of the property to get

Returns:

The property or null if there is no such property

setDictionary

public void setDictionary(java.util.Map<java.lang.Long,java.lang.String> dictionary)
                   throws IllegalPropertySetDataException

Sets the section's dictionary. All keys in the dictionary must be Long instances, all values must be Strings. This method overwrites the properties with IDs 0 and 1 since they are reserved for the dictionary and the dictionary's codepage. Setting these properties explicitly might have surprising effects. An application should never do this but always use this method.

Parameters:

dictionary - The dictionary

Throws:

IllegalPropertySetDataException - if the dictionary's key and value types are not correct.

See Also:

Section.getDictionary()

setProperty

public void setProperty(int id,
                        java.lang.Object value)

Sets a property.

Parameters:

id - The property ID.

value - The property's value. The value's class must be one of those supported by HPSF.

clear

public void clear()

Removes all properties from the section including 0 (dictionary) and 1 (codepage).

setCodepage

public void setCodepage(int codepage)

Sets the codepage.

Parameters:

codepage - the codepage
