Class ImageParser<T extends ImagingParameters>

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.imaging.common.BinaryFileParser

org.apache.commons.imaging.ImageParser<T>

Type Parameters:

T - type of parameters used by this image parser

public abstract class ImageParser<T extends ImagingParameters>
extends org.apache.commons.imaging.common.BinaryFileParser

Provides the abstract base class for all image reading and writing utilities. ImageParser implementations are expected to extend this class providing logic for identifying and processing data in their own specific format. Specific implementations are found under the com.apache.commons.imaging.formats package.

Application Notes

Format support

For the most recent information on format support for the Apache Commons Imaging package, refer to Format Support at the main project development web site.

On the accuracy of this Javadoc

The original authors of this class did not supply documentation. The Javadoc for this class is based on inspection of the source code. In some cases, the purpose and usage for particular methods was deduced from the source and may not perfectly reflect the intentions of the original. Therefore, you should not assume that the documentation is perfect, especially in the more obscure and specialized areas of implementation.

The "params" argument

Many of the methods specified by this class accept an argument of type T defining the parameters to be used when processing an image. For example, some of the output formats permit of different kinds of image compression or color models. Some of the reading methods permit the calling application to require strict format compliance.

Parameters:

byteSource - A valid byte source.

Returns:

A valid, potentially subject-matter-specific implementation of the IImageMetadata interface describing the content extracted from the source content.

Throws:

ImageReadException - In the event that the ByteSource content does not conform to the format of the specific parser implementation.

java.io.IOException - In the event of unsuccessful data read operation.

                       java.io.IOException

Writes the content of a BufferedImage to the specified output stream.

The params argument provides a mechanism for individual implementations to pass optional information into the parser. Not all formats will support this capability. Currently, some of the parsers do not check for null arguments.

Parameters:

src - An image giving the source content for output

os - A valid output stream for storing the formatted image

params - optional parameters, defining format-specific instructions for output (such as selections for data compression, color models, etc.)

Throws:

ImageWriteException - In the event that the output format cannot handle the input image or invalid params are specified.

java.io.IOException - In the event of an write error from the output stream.
