public interface SpecialValueTranslator

This translator class represents a special translator which is only used by SpecialColumnDescriptors, similar to the AbstractValueTranslator which is used by StandardColumnDescriptor. The difference is that the associated SpecialColumnDescriptor does not specify a mapping to an AbstractDescriptor like the StandardColumnDescriptor. So it is not clear when reading the ImpEx script which attribute will be updated. This translator always implements special logic.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	init(SpecialColumnDescriptor columnDescriptor)	Called once upon header creation to do some initial setup logic.
boolean	isEmpty(String cellValue)	Evaluates whether or not a cell value is treated as empty.
String	performExport(Item item)	Called each time an item is exported using the enclosing header.
void	performImport(String cellValue, Item processedItem)	Called each time a non-empty cell value has to be imported.
void	validate(String expr)	Validates the special column definition.

Method Details

init

void init(SpecialColumnDescriptor columnDescriptor)
   throws HeaderValidationException

Called once upon header creation to do some initial setup logic.

Parameters:

Throws:

HeaderValidationException - indicates that the column descriptor is not configured properly

validate

void validate(String expr)
       throws HeaderValidationException

Validates the special column definition.

Parameters:

expr - the definition expression

Throws:

HeaderValidationException - if the expression is not valid

performExport

String performExport(Item item)
              throws ImpExException

Called each time an item is exported using the enclosing header.

Parameters:

item - the item to export

Returns:

the string representation of the value to export

Throws:

ImpExException - indicates an export error

performImport

void performImport(String cellValue,
 Item processedItem)
            throws ImpExException

Called each time a non-empty cell value has to be imported.

Parameters:

cellValue - the cell value string

processedItem - the item to import the value for

Throws:

ImpExException - indicates an import error

isEmpty

boolean isEmpty(String cellValue)
