CalsTableConfiguration

public CalsTableConfiguration()

Constructs a new CalsTableConfiguration instance.

Method Detail

setProcessTables

public void setProcessTables(boolean value)

Specifies whether to apply CALS table processing.

CALS table processing ensures that when valid (both syntactically and semantically according to the OASIS CALS table model documentation) input tables are provided the result will be a valid CALS table.

Simple changes to the table, such as changing the contents of an entry, adding a row or column are generally represented as fine grain changes. Because CALS entries can overlap or span multiple rows and columns, some types of change are difficult to represent at fine granularity, whilst ensuring validity. In these cases changes are represented at row (ie, groups of added/deleted rows) or even whole-table granularity.

Setting this parameter to false turns off this processing, therefore it is possible to generate an invalid table. However, if table validity is not a concern changes may be represented at finer granularity.

Default: true

Parameters:

value - a boolean value to enable CALS table processing

isProcessTables

public boolean isProcessTables()

Determines whether CALS table processing is enabled.

Returns:

a boolean describing the enabled state of CALS table processing

setInvalidTableBehaviour

public void setInvalidTableBehaviour(InvalidTableBehaviour behaviour)

In order to ensure that only valid CALS tables are passed to our specialized CALS table processing, each input table is marked either valid or invalid. This parameter declares what type of processing should be used for those tables that are marked as invalid. The 'warning report mode' parameter configures how recoverable errors are reported.

Three options are provided: fail, propagate up, and compare as XML. The fail option stops the comparison by throwing an appropriate exception (that includes the errors identified by the validity checker). The propagate up option ensures that changes to an invalid table (or more specifically 'tgroup') are represented at the table level. The compare as XML option essentially compares the tables as if they were well-formed XML.

Note that the results of the compare as XML option can differ from comparing the tables without CALS table processing enabled, as a small amount of CALS specific processing is applied to invalid tables in order to allow them to be compared against a similar valid table.

Default: InvalidTableBehaviour.PROPAGATE_UP

Parameters:

behaviour - the value to set for the InvalidTableBehaviour parameter

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the value is null

InvalidTableBehaviour

getInvalidTableBehaviour

public InvalidTableBehaviour getInvalidTableBehaviour()

Returns the current behavior in use when inputs contain invalid CALS tables.

Returns:

an instance of InvalidTableBehaviour describing the behavior in use

setWarningReportMode

public void setWarningReportMode(WarningReportMode mode)

Specifies how CALS table invalidity warnings should be reported.

Parameters:

mode - the WarningReportMode to use when invalid CALS tables are encountered

getWarningReportMode

public WarningReportMode getWarningReportMode()

Returns the WarningReportMode in use when invalid CALS tables are encountered.

Returns:

an instance of WarningReportMode describing the reporting mode in use

setValidationLevel

public void setValidationLevel(ValidationLevel level)

Sets the ValidationLevel to use for CALS table validation.

A value of ValidationLevel.STRICT will cause the InvalidTableBehaviour mode to be used for any CALS invalidity. A value of ValidationLevel.RELAXED means that invalidities which are known to have no effect on CALS processing will not prevent CALS processing from running. N.B. Warnings will be reported according to the WarningReportMode regardless of the setting used here.

Parameters:

level - an instance of ValidationLevel describing the level to use

getValidationLevel

public ValidationLevel getValidationLevel()

Returns the ValidationLevel current in use when validating CALS tables.

Returns:

an instance of ValidationLevel describing the level in use
