Class SimpleDoc

Implemented Interfaces:
Doc

public final class SimpleDoc
extends Object
implements Doc

Simple implementation of the Doc interface capable of handling the predefined document flavors of DocFlavor.

This implementation can construct a reader or stream for the service from the print data and ensures that always the same object is returned on each method call. It does simple checks that the supplied data matches the specified flavor of the doc object and supports thread safe access.

Constructor Summary

SimpleDoc(Object printData, DocFlavor flavor, DocAttributeSet attributes)
Constructs a SimpleDoc with the specified print data, doc flavor and doc attribute set.

DocFlavor
getDocFlavor()
Returns the flavor of this doc objects print data.
Object
getPrintData()
Returns the print data of this doc object.
Reader
getReaderForText()

Constructor Details

SimpleDoc

public SimpleDoc(Object printData,
                 DocFlavor flavor,
                 DocAttributeSet attributes)
Constructs a SimpleDoc with the specified print data, doc flavor and doc attribute set.
Parameters:
printData - the object with the data to print.
flavor - the document flavor of the print data.
attributes - the attributes of the doc (may be null).
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if either printData or flavor are null, or the print data is not supplied in the document format specified by the given flavor object.

Method Details

getAttributes

public DocAttributeSet getAttributes()
Returns the unmodifiable view of the attributes of this doc object.

The attributes of this doc's attributes set overrides attributes of the same category in the print job's attribute set. If an attribute is not available in this doc's attributes set or null is returned the attributes of the same category of the print job are used.

Specified by:
getAttributes in interface Doc
Returns:
The unmodifiable attributes set, or null.

getDocFlavor

public DocFlavor getDocFlavor()
Returns the flavor of this doc objects print data.
Specified by:
getDocFlavor in interface Doc
Returns:
The document flavor.

getPrintData

public Object getPrintData()
            throws IOException
Returns the print data of this doc object.

The returned object is an instance as described by the associated document flavor (DocFlavor.getRepresentationClassName()) and can be cast to this representation class.

Specified by:
getPrintData in interface Doc
Returns:
The print data in the representation class.
Throws:
IOException - if representation class is a stream and I/O exception occures.

getReaderForText

public Reader getReaderForText()
            throws IOException
Returns a Reader object for extracting character print data from this document.

This method is supported if the document flavor is of type:

  • char[]
  • java.lang.String
  • java.io.Reader
otherwise this method returns null.
Specified by:
getReaderForText in interface Doc
Returns:
The Reader object, or null.
Throws:
IOException - if an error occurs.

getStreamForBytes

public InputStream getStreamForBytes()
            throws IOException
Returns an InputStream object for extracting byte print data from this document.

This method is supported if the document flavor is of type:

  • byte[]
  • java.io.InputStream
otherwise this method returns null.
Specified by:
getStreamForBytes in interface Doc
Returns:
The InputStream object, or null.
