biweekly.io.text

Class ICalReader

java.lang.Object

biweekly.io.StreamReader

biweekly.io.text.ICalReader

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

public class ICalReader
extends StreamReader

Parses ICalendar objects from an iCalendar data stream.

Example:

 InputStream in = ...
 ICalReader icalReader = new ICalReader(in);
 ICalendar ical;
 while ((ical = icalReader.readNext()) != null){
   ...
 }
 icalReader.close();
 

Getting timezone information:

 ICalReader reader = ...
 ICalendar ical = reader.readNext();
 TimezoneInfo tzinfo = reader.getTimezoneInfo();
 
 //get the VTIMEZONE components that were parsed
 //the VTIMEZONE components will NOT be in the ICalendar object
 Collection<VTimezone> vtimezones = tzinfo.getComponents();
 
 //get the timezone that a property was originally formatted in
 DateStart dtstart = ical.getEvents().get(0).getDateStart();
 TimeZone tz = tzinfo.getTimeZone(dtstart);

Constructor Detail

ICalReader

public ICalReader(String string)

Creates a reader that parses iCalendar objects from a string.

Parameters:

string - the string

ICalReader

public ICalReader(InputStream in)

Creates a reader that parses iCalendar objects from an input stream.

Parameters:

in - the input stream

ICalReader

public ICalReader(File file)
           throws FileNotFoundException

Creates a reader that parses iCalendar objects from a file.

Parameters:

file - the file

Throws:

FileNotFoundException - if the file doesn't exist

ICalReader

public ICalReader(Reader reader)

Creates a reader that parses iCalendar objects from a reader.

Parameters:

reader - the reader

Method Detail

isCaretDecodingEnabled

public boolean isCaretDecodingEnabled()

Gets whether the reader will decode parameter values that use circumflex accent encoding (enabled by default). This escaping mechanism allows newlines and double quotes to be included in parameter values.

Returns:

true if circumflex accent decoding is enabled, false if not

See Also:

ICalRawReader.isCaretDecodingEnabled()

setCaretDecodingEnabled

public void setCaretDecodingEnabled(boolean enable)

Sets whether the reader will decode parameter values that use circumflex accent encoding (enabled by default). This escaping mechanism allows newlines and double quotes to be included in parameter values.

Parameters:

enable - true to use circumflex accent decoding, false not to

See Also:

ICalRawReader.setCaretDecodingEnabled(boolean)

getDefaultQuotedPrintableCharset

public Charset getDefaultQuotedPrintableCharset()

Gets the character set to use when decoding quoted-printable values if the property has no CHARSET parameter, or if the CHARSET parameter is not a valid character set.

By default, the Reader's character encoding will be used. If the Reader has no character encoding, then the system's default character encoding will be used.

Returns:

the character set

setDefaultQuotedPrintableCharset

public void setDefaultQuotedPrintableCharset(Charset charset)

Sets the character set to use when decoding quoted-printable values if the property has no CHARSET parameter, or if the CHARSET parameter is not a valid character set.

By default, the Reader's character encoding will be used. If the Reader has no character encoding, then the system's default character encoding will be used.

Parameters:

charset - the character set

_readNext

protected ICalendar _readNext()
                       throws IOException

Description copied from class: StreamReader

Reads the next iCalendar object from the data stream.

Specified by:

_readNext in class StreamReader

Returns:

the next iCalendar object or null if there are no more

Throws:

IOException - if there's a problem reading from the stream

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closes the underlying Reader object.

Throws:

IOException
