Interface MultiDoc
MultiDoc defines the interface for objects providing multiple
documents for use in a print job.
Implementations of this interface are used to pass multiple documents, to be
printed as one print job, to the
MultiDocPrintJob instance.
There exists no implementation of this interface in the Java Print Service
API. Implementors may assume the following usage in print jobs and the needed
behaviour for implementations: The print job fetches the single documents via
iteration by consecutive calls of the
getDoc() method to obtain the
current document follwing calls of the
next() method to get the next
multidoc object for the next
getDoc() method call (if returned
multidoc object is not
null). The print service will fetch the
document object and then retrieve the print data from the document before it
proceeds with the next call for the next MultiDoc object in the sequence.
Implementations of this interface have to be multiple thread-safe.
Doc | getDoc()- Returns the current document.
|
MultiDoc | next()- Returns the next
MultiDoc object that contains the
next document for retrieval.
|
next
public MultiDoc next()
throws IOException Returns the next MultiDoc object that contains the
next document for retrieval.
- The next
MultiDoc object, or null
if no more documents are available.
