Class ImageParser

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.imaging.common.BinaryFileParser
org.apache.commons.imaging.ImageParser

public abstract class ImageParser 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 "Map params" argument

Many of the methods specified by this class accept an argument of type Map giving a list of parameters to be used when processing an image. For example, some of the output formats permit the specification of different kinds of image compression or color models. Some of the reading methods permit the calling application to require strict format compliance. In many cases, however, an application will not require the use of this argument. While some of the ImageParser implementations check for (and ignore) null arguments for this parameter, not all of them do (at least not at the time these notes were written). Therefore, a prudent programmer will always supply an valid, though empty instance of a Map implementation when calling such methods. Generally, the java HashMap class is useful for this purpose.

Additionally, developers creating or enhancing classes derived from ImageParser are encouraged to include such checks in their code.

      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.

      src - An image giving the source content for output
      os - A valid output stream for storing the formatted image
      params - A non-null Map implementation supplying optional, 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.
      IOException - In the event of an write error from the output stream.
