Constructor Detail

PackedFileReader

public PackedFileReader(NMLMessageDictionary _dict,
                        boolean _l64_mode)

Create a PackedFileReader for reading log files of a given set of types.

Parameters:

_dict - MessageDictionary with auto-generated format functions to parse this specific file types.

_l64_mode - should longs be stored or expected to be 64-bit instead of 32-bit

Method Detail

ReadFile

public NMLmsg ReadFile(java.lang.String fileName)

Read the entire file or URL and parse it into an NMLmsg of the appropriate type.

Parameters:

fileName - the path to a file, or a filename in the current directory or a URL beginning with "http://"

Returns:

message from given file.

ReadFile

public NMLmsg ReadFile(java.lang.String fileName,
                       int maxlen)

Read the first maxlen bytes out of a file and convert it to an NMLmsg. It is typically used to extract just a timestamp in one of the first variables of a large message.

Parameters:

fileName - fileName or path or URL to read.

maxlen - number of bytes to actually read.

Returns:

message from file. (variables stored after maxlen will be all zero.)

ReadFileSection

public NMLmsg ReadFileSection(java.lang.String fileName,
                              int offset,
                              int maxlen)
                       throws java.lang.Exception

Read a section of a large file containing many messages.

Parameters:

fileName - filename or path to file or URL starting with "http://"

offset - number of bytes from beginning of file to location of the desired message

maxlen - maximum number of bytes in the message

Returns:

message from the file.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - throws exception of offset or max_len exceeds the size of file or

ReadFile

public NMLmsg ReadFile(java.io.File f)

Read the entire message in the pointed to file and convert it to an NMLmsg.

Parameters:

f - the file to read.

Returns:

message from File.

ReadFile

public NMLmsg ReadFile(java.io.File f,
                       int max_len)

Read the first max_len bytes from a file and convert it to an NML message. It is typically used to get a timestamp which is one of the first few variables in a large message. Variables from more than max_len bytes into the file will be left zero.

Parameters:

f - file to read

max_len - maximum number of bytes to read.

Returns:

the message for the given file with variables after max_len left zero.

ReadIndexes

public static int[] ReadIndexes(java.lang.String indexFileName,
                                boolean littleEndian)
                         throws java.lang.Exception

Read an indexFile as created by the logRecorder into an integer array.

Parameters:

indexFileName - name of the index file.

littleEndian - was the log recorder run on a littleEndian platform (probably true)

Returns:

integer array with the indexes

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - occurs if the file does not exist or can not be read.

ReadIndexes

public static int[] ReadIndexes(java.io.File indexFile,
                                boolean littleEndian)
                         throws java.lang.Exception

Read an indexFile as created by the logRecorder into an integer array.

Parameters:

littleEndian - was the log recorder run on a littleEndian platform (probably true)

Returns:

integer array with the indexes

Throws:
