MDTableReader

public MDTableReader()

Method Detail

read

public abstract D read(byte[] serialized)

Generates a descriptor from a byte array. Note that compatibility of the descriptor configuration used to create the serialized form and the one used to create this reader instance can not be checked. The binary form read by this method is compatible only with the binary form provided by the chemaxon.descriptors API implementation for the represented XML configuration. This binary form is not compatible with the DescriptorSerializer represented by the DescriptorGenerator returned by getDescriptorGenerator().

Parameters:

serialized - Serialize byte array representation

Returns:

a bare descriptor form

getXmlConfig

public abstract String getXmlConfig()

Gets configuration string.

Returns:

xml config

getDescriptorGenerator

public abstract DescriptorGenerator<D> getDescriptorGenerator()

Associated descriptor generator. Associated generator is compatible with the read descriptors created by method read(byte[]). Note that the DescriptorSerializer exposed by the returned generator is not compatible with the binary form represented by this reader.

Returns:

Associated generator

getStandardizerWrapper

public abstract StandardizerWrapper getStandardizerWrapper()

Get represented standardizer wrapper. Note that the represented standardizer configuration might not be recognized by an implementation. In these cases an IllegalStateException is thrown.

Returns:

Represented standardizer wrapper

Throws:

IllegalStateException - When represented standardizer configuration is not recognized

createNewReader

public static MDTableReader<? extends Descriptor> createNewReader(String xmlConfig)

Create an MDTableReader from the xml configuration string.

Parameters:

xmlConfig - xml config

Returns:

an MDTableReader implementation

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - invalid xml string
