Class IIOMetadataFormatImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:
IIOMetadataFormat
public abstract class IIOMetadataFormatImpl
extends Object
implements IIOMetadataFormat

A concrete class providing a reusable implementation of the IIOMetadataFormat interface. In addition, a static instance representing the standard, plug-in neutral javax_imageio_1.0 format is provided by the getStandardFormatInstance method.

In order to supply localized descriptions of elements and attributes, a ResourceBundle with a base name of this.getClass().getName() + "Resources" should be supplied via the usual mechanism used by ResourceBundle.getBundle. Briefly, the subclasser supplies one or more additional classes according to a naming convention (by default, the fully-qualified name of the subclass extending IIMetadataFormatImpl, plus the string "Resources", plus the country, language, and variant codes separated by underscores). At run time, calls to getElementDescription or getAttributeDescription will attempt to load such classes dynamically according to the supplied locale, and will use either the element name, or the element name followed by a '/' character followed by the attribute name as a key. This key will be supplied to the ResourceBundle's getString method, and the resulting localized description of the node or attribute is returned.

The subclass may supply a different base name for the resource bundles using the setResourceBaseName method.

A subclass may choose its own localization mechanism, if so desired, by overriding the supplied implementations of getElementDescription and getAttributeDescription.

Returns a String containing a description of the named element, or null. The description will be localized for the supplied Locale if possible.

The default implementation will first locate a ResourceBundle using the current resource base name set by setResourceBaseName and the supplied Locale, using the fallback mechanism described in the comments for ResourceBundle.getBundle. If a ResourceBundle is found, the element name will be used as a key to its getString method, and the result returned. If no ResourceBundle is found, or no such key is present, null will be returned.

If locale is null, the current default Locale returned by Locale.getLocale will be used.

Specified by:
getElementDescription in interface IIOMetadataFormat
Parameters:
elementName - the name of the element.
locale - the Locale for which localization will be attempted.
Returns:
the element description.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if elementName is null, or is not a legal element name for this format.

Returns a String containing a description of the named attribute, or null. The description will be localized for the supplied Locale if possible.

The default implementation will first locate a ResourceBundle using the current resource base name set by setResourceBaseName and the supplied Locale, using the fallback mechanism described in the comments for ResourceBundle.getBundle. If a ResourceBundle is found, the element name followed by a "/" character followed by the attribute name (elementName + "/" + attrName) will be used as a key to its getString method, and the result returned. If no ResourceBundle is found, or no such key is present, null will be returned.

If locale is null, the current default Locale returned by Locale.getLocale will be used.

Specified by:
getAttributeDescription in interface IIOMetadataFormat
Parameters:
elementName - the name of the element.
attrName - the name of the attribute.
locale - the Locale for which localization will be attempted, or null.
Returns:
the attribute description.
