javax.print.SimpleDoc — clojure-interop/javax.print 1.0.5

This class is an implementation of interface Doc that can be used in many common printing requests. It can handle all of the presently defined "pre-defined" doc flavors defined as static variables in the DocFlavor class.

In particular this class implements certain required semantics of the Doc specification as follows:

constructs a stream for the service if requested and appropriate. ensures the same object is returned for each call on a method. ensures multiple threads can access the Doc performs some validation of that the data matches the doc flavor.

Clients who want to re-use the doc object in other jobs, or need a MultiDoc will not want to use this class.

If the print data is a stream, or a print job requests data as a stream, then SimpleDoc does not monitor if the service properly closes the stream after data transfer completion or job termination. Clients may prefer to use provide their own implementation of doc that adds a listener to monitor job completion and to validate that resources such as streams are freed (ie closed).

->simple-doc clj

(->simple-doc print-data flavor attributes)

Constructor.

Constructs a SimpleDoc with the specified print data, doc flavor and doc attribute set.

print-data - the print data object - java.lang.Object flavor - the DocFlavor object - javax.print.DocFlavor attributes - a DocAttributeSet, which can be null - javax.print.attribute.DocAttributeSet

throws: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if flavor or printData is null, or the printData does not correspond to the specified doc flavor--for example, the data is not of the type specified as the representation in the DocFlavor.

get-attributes clj

(get-attributes this)

Obtains the set of printing attributes for this doc object. If the returned attribute set includes an instance of a particular attribute X, the printer must use that attribute value for this doc, overriding any value of attribute X in the job's attribute set. If the returned attribute set does not include an instance of a particular attribute X or if null is returned, the printer must consult the job's attribute set to obtain the value for attribute X, and if not found there, the printer must use an implementation-dependent default value. The returned attribute set is unmodifiable.

returns: Unmodifiable set of printing attributes for this doc, or null to obtain all attribute values from the job's attribute set. - javax.print.attribute.DocAttributeSet

get-doc-flavor clj

(get-doc-flavor this)

Determines the doc flavor in which this doc object will supply its piece of print data.

returns: Doc flavor. - javax.print.DocFlavor

get-print-data clj

(get-print-data this)

Description copied from interface: Doc

returns: Print data representation object. - java.lang.Object

throws: java.io.IOException - Thrown if the representation class is a stream and there was an I/O error while constructing the stream.

get-reader-for-text clj

(get-reader-for-text this)

Obtains a reader for extracting character print data from this doc. The Doc implementation is required to support this method if the DocFlavor has one of the following print data representation classes, and return null otherwise:

char[] java.lang.String java.io.Reader

The doc's print data representation object is used to construct and return a Reader for reading the print data as a stream of characters from the print data representation object. However, if the print data representation object is itself a Reader then the print data representation object is simply returned.

returns: a Reader for reading the print data characters from this doc. If a reader cannot be provided because this doc does not meet the criteria stated above, null is returned. - java.io.Reader

throws: java.io.IOException - if there was an I/O error while creating the reader.

get-stream-for-bytes clj

(get-stream-for-bytes this)

Obtains an input stream for extracting byte print data from this doc. The Doc implementation is required to support this method if the DocFlavor has one of the following print data representation classes; otherwise this method returns null:

byte[] java.io.InputStream

The doc's print data representation object is obtained. Then, an input stream for reading the print data from the print data representation object as a stream of bytes is created and returned. However, if the print data representation object is itself an input stream then the print data representation object is simply returned.

returns: an InputStream for reading the print data bytes from this doc. If an input stream cannot be provided because this doc does not meet the criteria stated above, null is returned. - java.io.InputStream

throws: java.io.IOException - if there was an I/O error while creating the input stream.
