    • FixedWidthFields

      public FixedWidthFields(LinkedHashMap<String,Integer> fields)
      Defines a sequence of field names used to refer to columns in the input/output text of an entity, along with their lengths. The field names defined will be used as headers, having the same effect of a call to CommonSettings.setHeaders(String...).
      Parameters:
      fields - a LinkedHashMap containing the sequence of fields to be associated with each column in the input/output, with their respective length.
    • FixedWidthFields

      public FixedWidthFields(String[] headers, int[] lengths)
      Defines a sequence of field names used to refer to columns in the input/output text of an entity, along with their lengths. The field names defined will be used as headers, having the same effect of a call to CommonSettings.setHeaders(String...).
      Parameters:
      headers - the sequence of fields to be associated with each column in the input/output
      lengths - the sequence of lengths to be associated with each given header. The size of this array must match the number of given headers.
    • FixedWidthFields

      public FixedWidthFields(int... fieldLengths)
      Creates a new instance initialized with the lengths of all fields in a fixed-width record.
      Parameters:
      fieldLengths - The number lengths of all fields in a fixed-width record. All lengths must be greater than 0.

      @Deprecated public FixedWidthFields(Class beanClass)
      Deprecated.
      use forParsing(Class) and forWriting(Class) to initialize the fields from the given class and filter out getters and setters that target the same field. If the given class has any annotated methods only the setters will be used, making it usable only for parsing.
      Creates a new instance initialized from FixedWidth annotations in the fields and methods of a given class. Note that all fields should additionally have the Parsed annotation to configure header names and/or their positions.
      Parameters:
      beanClass - the class whose FixedWidth annotations will be processed to configure this field list.
    • FixedWidthFields

      private FixedWidthFields(Class beanClass, MethodFilter methodFilter)
      Creates a new instance initialized from FixedWidth annotations in the fields of a given class. Note that all fields should additionally have the Parsed annotation to configure header names and/or their positions.
      Parameters:
      beanClass - the class whose FixedWidth annotations will be processed to configure this field list.
      methodFilter - filter to apply over annotated methods when the fixed-width writer is reading data from beans (to write values to an output) or writing values into beans (when parsing). It is used to choose either a "get" or a "set" method annotated with Parsed, when both methods target the same field.
