Class InputStreamPropertyIO

java.lang.Object

dk.heick.properties.io.AbstractPropertyIO

dk.heick.properties.io.InputStreamPropertyIO

All Implemented Interfaces:

PropertyIO, Serializable

public class InputStreamPropertyIO
extends AbstractPropertyIO

Class for handling properties which is stored in an inputstream that can be loaded by the Properties.load() method.
This is a readonly PropertyIO, so setValue throws an exception.
The properties are loaded from the stream once, than the stream is closed.
So when reloading the InputStreamPropertyIO, then the properties is NOT reloaded from the stream. Therefore the "getCacheTime()" is set to zero, so no automatic reload is performed.

Since:

1.3

Method Detail

getInputStream

protected final InputStream getInputStream()

setValue

public void setValue(String propertyName,
                     String value)
              throws PropertyIOException

Description copied from interface: PropertyIO

Sets the name,value as String in the IO. Many IO implementations reloads when a value is set to refresh cache.
This is recommended, but the framework will update cache items with new values.

Parameters:

propertyName - the name of the property

value - the string value of the property.

Throws:

PropertyIOException - if the IO is readonly or failed to write the value.

validate

public void validate()
              throws PropertyIOException

Description copied from interface: PropertyIO

Validates the PropertyIO.

Throws:

PropertyIOException

getProperties

public Properties getProperties()

Description copied from interface: PropertyIO

Gets all the name,value pair in a Properties class instance.

Returns:

the Properties available for the IO.

reload

public void reload()

Description copied from interface: PropertyIO

Reloads the name,value pairs for the PropertyIO, or forces the values to reload when read next time. Remember to both reset properties and typed value cache if used.

Specified by:

reload in interface PropertyIO

Overrides:

reload in class AbstractPropertyIO

getSource

public String getSource()

Description copied from interface: PropertyIO

A detailed description of the source of the property data.

Returns:

a data source description.

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: PropertyIO

A short descriptive name of the Property IO.

Returns:

a short descriptive name of the PropertyIO class.

getCacheTime

public final long getCacheTime()

Description copied from class: AbstractPropertyIO

How often the typed value cache for a PropertyIO should be automatically flushed every X milliseconds.

Specified by:

getCacheTime in interface PropertyIO

Overrides:

getCacheTime in class AbstractPropertyIO

Returns:

the cacheTime for typed cached value in milliseconds. If less than or equal to zero no automatic cache flush is performed and must be done manually with reload.
