Method Detail

startTable
void startTable(uk.ac.starlink.table.StarTable metadata) throws org.xml.sax.SAXException
Called when a table is about to be transmitted. This call will occur somewhere between matched DATA element startElement and endElement calls. The metadata argument signals column and table metadata argument about the table whose rows are about to be transmitted. If the number of rows that will be transmitted via subsequent calls to rowData is known, this value should be made available as the row count of metadata (StarTable.getRowCount()
); if it is not known, the row count should be -1. However, this object should not attempt to read any of meta's cell data.The data to be transmitted in subsequent calls of acceptRow must match the metadata transmitted in this call in the same way that rows of a StarTable must match its own metadata (number and content clases of columns etc).
- Parameters:
metadata
- metadata object- Throws:
org.xml.sax.SAXException

rowData
void rowData(java.lang.Object[] row) throws org.xml.sax.SAXException
Called when a row has been read. This method will be called between matched startTable and endTable calls.- Parameters:
row
- array of data objects representing a row in the current table- Throws:
org.xml.sax.SAXException
-

void endTable() throws org.xml.sax.SAXException
Called when there are no more rows to be transmitted.- Throws:
