All Implemented Interfaces:

TAResource, Receiver, ReceiverSingleInterface

public class AS400ByteArrayListReceiver
extends AS400FileReceiver
implements Receiver, ReceiverSingleInterface

AS400ByteArrayListReceiver serves for reading files from an AS400 and putting the file content into a byte array list. Each byte array in this list corresponds to a record in the file. Byte array are used instead of strings if the character encoding does not allow predicting the the string length of free text fields in sense of number of characters by knowing the number of bytes. In this case bytes instaed of characters have to be counted to determine the contents of single record fileds.

Method Detail

getRequestContent

protected java.lang.Object getRequestContent()
                                      throws XException

Reads the integrated file system object specified by the path name into a ByteArrayList.

Note: We use the record-level access classes for reading.
Contents of each record are read into a byte array of AS400 data.

Overrides:

getRequestContent in class AS400FileReceiver

Returns:

file contents as ByteArrayList.

Throws:

XException - if file can not be read or any I/O error occurs

getType

public java.lang.String getType()

Description copied from interface: Receiver

A Receiver can receive data either as a String or as an Object from a neighboring system.

• When working with Strings, getType returns Constants.TYPE_TEXT
• When working with Objects, getType returns Constants.TYPE_OBJECT

Specified by:

getType in interface Receiver

Overrides:

getType in class AS400FileReceiver
