Method Detail

read

public int read(char[] b,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws java.io.IOException

read

Overrides:

read in class java.io.FilterReader

Parameters:

len - parameter for read

b - TBD: Description of the incoming method parameter

off - TBD: Description of the incoming method parameter

Returns:

the returned int

Throws:

java.io.IOException - -

read

public int read()
         throws java.io.IOException

Reads a char. Will block if no input is available.

Overrides:

read in class java.io.FilterReader

Returns:

the char read, or -1 if the end of the stream is reached.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If an I/O error has occurred.

addEntity

public void addEntity(java.lang.String entity,
                      java.lang.String substitute)
               throws java.lang.NullPointerException

Defines an entity substitution set. The user should only use the base tag definition and not include the & and ; characters.

Parameters:

entity - - the entity to substitute. Example: quot, #90, copy.

substitute - - string to sub for the entity.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException -

useStandardEntities()

addSubstitute

public void addSubstitute(java.lang.String tag,
                          java.lang.String substitute)
                   throws java.lang.NullPointerException

Defines a tag substitution set. The user should only use the base tag definition (when substituting, attributes are ignored anyway). For example, addSubstitute("hr", "-=-=-=") will substitute any HR tag found (even with attributes) with the -=-=-= characters. Note: beginning and ending need their own definitions

Parameters:

tag - - the tag to substitute. Use base tag without attributes.

substitute - - string to sub for tag.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException -

See Also:

useStandardSubstitutes()

useStandardSubstitutes

public void useStandardSubstitutes()

Tells the filter to set up a standard tag substitution set.

useStandardEntities

public void useStandardEntities()

Tells the filter to set up a standard entity substitution set. This is relatively limited and the default set is shown below: / Original Substitution / quot " / amp & / lt < / gt > / copy (C)

clearSubstitutes

public void clearSubstitutes()

Tells the filter to clear all current tag substitutions.

clearEntities

public void clearEntities()

Tells the filter to clear all current entity substitutions

setCompressSpace

public void setCompressSpace(boolean flag)

Define whether multiple spaces should be compressed into a single space. This does not affect other "white space" characters.

Parameters:

flag -

setNoCR

public void setNoCR(boolean flag)

You can tell the filter to remove carraige returns (\n and \r) when parsing. This allows the caller to insert CR's where desired since CR's in HTML do not confer any special meaning

Parameters:

flag - - remove carraige returns during parse and substitue spaces

getNoCR

public boolean getNoCR()

You can tell the filter to remove carraige returns (\n and \r) when parsing. This allows the caller to insert CR's where desired since CR's in HTML do not confer any special meaning

Returns:

boolean

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

The main program for test

Parameters:

args - The command line arguments
