public abstract class JAIWriter
extends Sink

An abstract class that provides support for writing JAIImages Write a javax.media.jai.RenderedOp to a specified JPEG file.

Derived classes should have a postfire() method that creates a new _imageEncodeParameters, performs any setup on _imageEncodeParameters and then calls super.postfire()

The file is specified by the fileName attribute using any form acceptable to FileParameter.

If the confirmOverwrite parameter has value false, then this actor will overwrite the specified file if it exists without asking. If true (the default), then if the file exists, then this actor will ask for confirmation before overwriting.

Field Detail

fileName

public FileParameter fileName
The file name to which to write. This is a string with any form accepted by FileParameter.

See Also:
FileParameter

confirmOverwrite

public Parameter confirmOverwrite
If false, then overwrite the specified file if it exists without asking. If true (the default), then if the file exists, ask for confirmation before overwriting.


_alreadyReadImageToken

protected boolean _alreadyReadImageToken
Set to true if the input was read in by the derived class. Certain derived classes want to read in the JAIImageToken so they can adjust the output format accordingly. These actors read the input, set the value of _jaiImageToken and _image set _alreadyReadImageToken to true and then call super.postfire(), which acts accordingly.

See Also:
_jaiImageToken, JAIPNGWriter

_image

protected javax.media.jai.RenderedOp _image
The image that was optionally read in by the derived class.

See Also:
_alreadyReadImageToken

_imageEncoderName

protected java.lang.String _imageEncoderName
The name of the encoder in a format suitable for com.sun.media.jai.codec.ImageCodec, for example "BMP", or "JPG".


_imageEncodeParam

protected com.sun.media.jai.codec.ImageEncodeParam _imageEncodeParam
The encoder parameters. Derived classes usually instantiate a format specific subclass of ImageEncodeParam and then set _imageEncodeParam to the format specific instance and then call super.postfire().


_jaiImageToken

protected JAIImageToken _jaiImageToken
The JAIImageToken that was optionally read in by the derived class.

See Also:
_alreadyReadImageToken
Constructor Detail

JAIWriter

public JAIWriter(CompositeEntity container,
                 java.lang.String name)
          throws IllegalActionException,
                 NameDuplicationException
Construct an actor with the given container and name.

Parameters:
container - The container.
name - The name of this actor.
Throws:
IllegalActionException - If the actor cannot be contained by the proposed container.
NameDuplicationException - If the container already has an actor with this name.
Method Detail

postfire

public boolean postfire()
                 throws IllegalActionException
Read an input JAIImageToken and write it to the file. If the file does not exist then create it. If the file already exists, then query the user for overwrite.

Specified by:
postfire in interface Executable
Overrides:
postfire in class AtomicActor
Returns:
True if the execution can continue.
Throws:
IllegalActionException - If the file cannot be opened or created, if the user refuses to overwrite an existing file, of if the image in unable to be encoded.
