Constructor Detail

AbstractResourcePropertiesBuilder

protected AbstractResourcePropertiesBuilder()

Create an empty AbstractResourcePropertiesBuilder instance using the default path delimiter "/" (Delimiter.PATH) for the path declarations.

AbstractResourcePropertiesBuilder

protected AbstractResourcePropertiesBuilder(Object aObj)

Create a AbstractResourcePropertiesBuilder instance containing the elements as of PathMap.MutablePathMap.insert(Object) using the default path delimiter "/" (Delimiter.PATH) for the path declarations: "Inspects the given object and adds all elements found in the given object. Elements of type Map, Collection and arrays are identified and handled as of their type: The path for each value in a Map is appended with its according key. The path for each value in a Collection or array is appended with its according index of occurrence (in case of a List or an array, its actual index). In case of reflection, the path for each member is appended with its according mamber's name. All elements (e.g. the members and values) are inspected recursively which results in the according paths of the terminating values."

Parameters:

aObj - The object from which the elements are to be added.

Reads the properties from the given InputStream.

Parameters:

aInputStream - The InputStream from which to read the properties.

Method Detail

loadFrom

public Properties loadFrom(File aFile,
                           char... aDelimiters)
                    throws IOException,
                           ParseException

Loads the properties from the given File. Save them using the method ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.saveTo(File). The default implementation uses the hook method ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.loadFrom(InputStream, char...) to finally load and parse the properties.

Specified by:

loadFrom in interface ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties

Parameters:

aFile - The File from which to load the properties.

aDelimiters - The path delimiters to be used when parsing the source's properties (in case the the serialized format supports / requires the such).

Returns:

The Properties as loaded from the resource and applied to this instance.

Throws:

IOException - thrown in case loading the properties failed

ParseException - Signals that an error has been reached unexpectedly while parsing the data to be loaded.

saveTo

public File saveTo(File aFile,
                   String aComment,
                   char aDelimiter)
            throws IOException

Saves the properties to the given File using the provided delimiter as the destination's path delimiter. Load them via ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.loadFrom(File, char...). The default implementation uses the hook method ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.saveTo(OutputStream, String, char) to finally format and write the properties.

Specified by:

saveTo in interface ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties

Parameters:

aFile - The File from which to load the properties.

aComment - The description for the properties file.

aDelimiter - The path delimiter to be used when writing out the properties to the destination (in case the the serialized format supports / requires the such).

Returns:

The File representing the actual location where the properties have been saved to.

Throws:

IOException - thrown in case saving the properties failed

seekFrom

public Properties seekFrom(Class<?> aResourceClass,
                           String aFilePath,
                           char... aDelimiters)
                    throws IOException,
                           ParseException

Loads a properties file from the file path directly or (if not found) from the first folder containing such a file as of the specification for the method RuntimeUtility.toConfigDirs(). Finally (if nothing else succeeds) the properties are loaded by the provided class's class loader which takes care of loading the properties (in case the file path is a relative path, also the absolute path with a prefixed path delimiter "/" is probed). The default implementation uses the hook method ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.loadFrom(InputStream, char...) to finally load and parse the properties.

Specified by:

seekFrom in interface ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties

Parameters:

aResourceClass - The class which's class loader is to take care of loading the properties (from inside a JAR).

aFilePath - The file path from which to load the properties.

aDelimiters - The path delimiters to be used when parsing the source's properties (in case the the serialized format supports / requires the such).

Returns:

The Properties as loaded from the resource and applied to this instance.

Throws:

IOException - thrown in case accessing or processing the properties file failed.

ParseException - Signals that an error has been reached unexpectedly while parsing the data to be loaded.

flush

public void flush()
           throws org.refcodes.component.OpenException

Flushes ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties to the resource to which the ResourceProperties are attached to (such as a File as of ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.loadFrom(File) or ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.saveTo(File)).

Specified by:

flush in interface Flushable

Specified by:

flush in interface org.refcodes.component.Flushable

Specified by:

flush in interface ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties

Throws:

org.refcodes.component.OpenException

isFlushable

public boolean isFlushable()

In case the resource has not been loaded from a writable File, then calling this method will return false.

Specified by:

isFlushable in interface org.refcodes.component.Flushable

reload

public Properties reload()
                  throws IOException,
                         IllegalStateException,
                         ParseException

Reloads the ResourceProperties from the resource to which the ResourceProperties are attached to (such as a File as of ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.loadFrom(File) or ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.saveTo(File)). In case the resource (such as an InputStream) does not support reloading, then an IllegalStateException is thrown. Properties existing in the attached resource as well in the Properties itself are replaced. Properties existing in the attached resource but not(!) in the Properties itself are not(!) removed. Use ResourceProperties.reload(ReloadMode) with an argument of true (~ orphan removal) to remove properties not existing in the resource.

Specified by:

reload in interface ResourceProperties

Returns:

The Properties as loaded from the resource and applied to this instance.

Throws:

IOException - thrown in case accessing the resource encountered an I/O problem.

IllegalStateException - in case the attached resource does not support reloading.

ParseException - Signals that an error has been reached unexpectedly while parsing the data to be loaded.

reload

public Properties reload(ReloadMode aReloadMode)
                  throws IOException,
                         IllegalStateException,
                         ParseException

Reloads the ResourceProperties from the resource to which the ResourceProperties are attached to (such as a File as of ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.loadFrom(File) or ResourceProperties.MutableResoureProperties.saveTo(File)). In case the resource (such as an InputStream) does not support reloading, then an IllegalStateException is thrown. Properties existing in the attached resource as well in the Properties itself are replaced. When "orphan removal" is set to false, then properties existing in the attached resource but not(!) in the Properties itself are not(!) removed. When "orphan removal" is set to true, then properties existing in the attached resource but not(!) in the Properties itself are(!) removed.

Specified by:

reload in interface ResourceProperties

Parameters:

aReloadMode - when set to ReloadMode.ORPHAN_REMOVAL, then properties existing in the attached resource but not(!) in the Properties itself are(!) removed. Else properties not existing in the attached resource are kept.

Returns:

The Properties as loaded from the resource and applied to this instance.

Throws:

IOException - thrown in case accessing the resource encountered an I/O problem.

IllegalStateException - in case the attached resource does not support reloading.

ParseException - Signals that an error has been reached unexpectedly while parsing the data to be loaded.
