Class ImpExMedia

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable
Direct Known Subclasses:
GeneratedHeaderLibrary, GeneratedImpExExportMedia

public class ImpExMedia extends GeneratedImpExMedia
Media item representing medias used for ImpEx processing (import/export). ImpEx is a CSV-based import/export engine and therefore the used medias are needing the ability of setting the used CSV-specific properties like the field separator or encoding. So, this media type adds this properties to the media type.

    • createItem

      protected Item createItem(SessionContext ctx, ComposedType type, Item.ItemAttributeMap allAttributes) throws JaloBusinessException
      Description copied from class: Item
      Has to be implemented for each concrete subtype of item. This method is responsible for creating a new item instance ( by calling managers, ejb homes, etc. ) during ComposedType.newInstance(Map).

      In case this method uses any of the attribute values during creation it is required to override Item.getNonInitialAttributes(SessionContext, ItemAttributeMap) too.
      Sn example:

      
       public static final String MY_ATTRIBUTE = "someAttribute"; ... protected Item createItem(SessionContext
       ctx, ComposedType type, Map allAttributes ) throws JaloBusinessException { MyManager man = ... return
       man.createMyItem( (String)allAttributes.get(MY_ATTRIBUTE) );
       // here MY_ATTRIBUTE is used for creation, so it must not be set again } protected Map getNonInitialAttributes(
       SessionContext ctx, Map allAttributes ) { // let superclass remove its own initial attributes Map ret =
       super.getNonInitialAttributes( ctx, allAttributes );
       // remove MY_ATTRIBUTE from all attributes since if has already been set ret.remove(MY_ATTRIBUTE); return ret; }
      
       
      Overrides:
      createItem in class Media
      Parameters:
      ctx - the current session context which this item is created within
      type - the actual item type ( since subtypes may not provide a own jalo class this may be different from the type which this method was implemented for )
      Returns:
      the new item instance
      Throws:
      JaloBusinessException - indicates an error during creation - any changes will be rollbacked
