Class ObjectReader<T>

  javolution.xml.ObjectReader<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Reusable

public class ObjectReader<T>
extends java.lang.Object
implements Reusable

This class restores objects which have been serialized in XML format using an ObjectWriter.

When the XML document is parsed, each elements are recursively processed and Java objects are created using the XmlFormat of the class identified by the name of the XML element. The final object constructed (and returned) is always the root element of the XML input source.

Non-blank character data of the XML document are represented by CharacterData instances.

Method Detail

read

public T read(java.io.Reader reader)
       throws XmlException

Creates an object from its XML representation read from the specified Reader. This method reads until the end of stream; to read multiple objects over a persistent connection XmlInputStream should be used instead.

Parameters:

reader - the reader containing the XML representation of the object being created.

Returns:

the object corresponding to the xml root element.

Throws:

XmlException - if the object cannot be created.

read

public T read(java.io.InputStream in)
       throws XmlException

Creates an object from its XML representation read from the specified InputStream. This method reads until the end of stream; to read multiple objects over a persistent connection XmlInputStream should be used instead.

Parameters:

in - the input stream containing the XML representation of the object being created.

Returns:

the object corresponding to the xml root element.

Throws:

XmlException - if the object cannot be created.

read

public T read(java.nio.ByteBuffer byteBuffer)
       throws XmlException

Creates an object from its XML representation read from the specified ByteBuffer. This method reads from the current buffer position up to the buffer's limit.

Parameters:

byteBuffer - the byte buffer containing the XML representation of the object being created.

Returns:

the object corresponding to the xml root element.

Throws:

XmlException - if the object cannot be created.

reset

public void reset()

Resets this object reader; objects previously read cannot be refered to, they will have to be send again.
