This SAFSFile class is intended as the file instance class for a SAFSFileReader.
Although there are no STAF dependencies, the class is tightly integrated with the reader. It has not been evaluated for any other use. Though, standalone use is likely possible.

This class represents the most basic reader functionality. It will simply read a line of text for each call to readLine(). It uses a java.io.BufferedReader as the underlying IO mechanism.

Constructor Detail

SAFSFile

public SAFSFile()

This constructor will create an inoperable (Closed) file object. No use whatsoever. :)

SAFSFile

public SAFSFile(java.lang.String machine,
                java.lang.String process,
                int handle,
                java.lang.String fileid,
                java.io.File file)

The constructor used by the SAFSFileReader. All subclasses MUST invoke this constructor prior to completing their initialization.
Invoke this constructor from the subclass with:

super(machine, process, handle, fileid, file);

Parameters:

machine - The STAF machine that requested this file be opened.

process - The STAF process that requested this file be opened.

handle - The STAF process handle that requested this file be opened.

fileid - A unique String ID to identify this file for the requesting process. This is not a filename. Multiple open views of the same file can be opened and each should have a unique fileid within the process namespace.

file - A File object that references the file to be opened.
