setTypeOfColumns

void setTypeOfColumns(Class<?> type,
                      Enum... columns)

Associates a type with one or more column. This allows the parsed data to be converted automatically to the given type when reading data from a Record, e.g. Record.toFieldObjectMap(String...) will convert the selected field values to their respective types, and then set the result as the values in the map.

Parameters:

type - the type to associate with a list of column

columns - the columns that will be associated with the given type.

setTypeOfColumns

void setTypeOfColumns(Class<?> type,
                      String... headerNames)

Associates a type with one or more column. This allows the parsed data to be converted automatically to the given type when reading data from a Record, e.g. Record.toFieldObjectMap(String...) will convert the selected field values to their respective types, and then set the result as the values in the map.

Parameters:

type - the type to associate with a list of column

headerNames - the columns that will be associated with the given type.

setTypeOfColumns

void setTypeOfColumns(Class<?> type,
                      int... columnIndexes)

Associates a type with one or more column. This allows the parsed data to be converted automatically to the given type when reading data from a Record, e.g. Record.toFieldObjectMap(String...) will convert the selected field values to their respective types, and then set the result as the values in the map.

Parameters:

type - the type to associate with a list of column

columnIndexes - the columns that will be associated with the given type.

setDefaultValueOfColumns

<T> void setDefaultValueOfColumns(T defaultValue,
                                  Enum<?>... columns)

Associates a default value with one or more columns, in case the values contained are null

Type Parameters:

T - type of the default value.

Parameters:

defaultValue - the value to be used for the given column when the parsed result is null

columns - the columns to be associated with a default value.

setDefaultValueOfColumns

<T> void setDefaultValueOfColumns(T defaultValue,
                                  String... headerNames)

Associates a sequence of Conversions to fields of a given set of fields

Type Parameters:

T - the enumeration type

Parameters:

enumType - the type of the enumeration whose values represent headers in the input Records

conversions - the sequence of conversions to apply

Returns:

(modifiable) set of fields to be selected and against which the given conversion sequence will be applied.

convertFields
