Method Detail

• getFormatName

  public java.lang.String getFormatName()

  Returns "CDF".

  Specified by:

  getFormatName in interface uk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder

• makeStarTable

  public uk.ac.starlink.table.StarTable makeStarTable(uk.ac.starlink.util.DataSource datsrc,
                                                      boolean wantRandom,
                                                      uk.ac.starlink.table.StoragePolicy storagePolicy)
                                               throws java.io.IOException

  Specified by:

  makeStarTable in interface uk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException

• canImport

  public boolean canImport(java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor flavor)

  Returns false. I don't think there is a MIME type associated with the CDF format. References to application/x-cdf and application/cdf appear on the web, but neither is IANA registered, and I think they refer to some other format.

  Specified by:

  canImport in interface uk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder

• streamStarTable

  public void streamStarTable(java.io.InputStream in,
                              uk.ac.starlink.table.TableSink sink,
                              java.lang.String pos)
                       throws java.io.IOException

  Throws a TableFormatException. CDF is not suitable for streaming.

  Specified by:

  streamStarTable in interface uk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException

• createProfile

  public static CdfTableProfile createProfile(boolean invarParams,
                                              java.lang.String[] descripAttNames,
                                              java.lang.String[] unitAttNames,
                                              java.lang.String[] blankvalAttNames)

  Constructs an instance of CdfTableProfile with some suggestions for attribute names with known semantics.

  Parameters:

  invarParams - true for turning non-row-varying variables into table parameters, false for turning them into variables

  descripAttNames - ordered list of names of attributes that might supply description metadata

  unitAttNames - ordered list of names of attributes that might supply units metadata

  blankvalAttNames - ordered list of names of attributes that might supply magic blank values

  Returns:

  new profile instance
