Class CommandMap
- java.lang.Object
-
- jakarta.activation.CommandMap
-
- Direct Known Subclasses:
MailcapCommandMap
public abstract class CommandMap extends Object
The CommandMap class provides an interface to a registry of command objects available in the system. Developers are expected to either use the CommandMap implementation included with this package (MailcapCommandMap) or develop their own. Note that some of the methods in this class are abstract.

Method Detail
-
getDefaultCommandMap
public static CommandMap getDefaultCommandMap()
Get the default CommandMap.- In cases where a CommandMap instance has been previously set to some value (via setDefaultCommandMap) return the CommandMap.
-
In cases where no CommandMap has been set, the CommandMap
creates an instance of
MailcapCommandMap
and set that to the default, returning its value.
- Returns:
- the CommandMap
-
setDefaultCommandMap
public static void setDefaultCommandMap(CommandMap commandMap)
Set the default CommandMap. Reset the CommandMap to the default by calling this method withnull
.- Parameters:
commandMap
- The new default CommandMap.- Throws:
SecurityException
- if the caller doesn't have permission to change the default
-
getPreferredCommands
public abstract CommandInfo[] getPreferredCommands(String mimeType)
Get the preferred command list from a MIME Type. The actual semantics are determined by the implementation of the CommandMap.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME type- Returns:
- the CommandInfo classes that represent the command Beans.
-
getPreferredCommands
public CommandInfo[] getPreferredCommands(String mimeType, DataSource ds)
Get the preferred command list from a MIME Type. The actual semantics are determined by the implementation of the CommandMap.The
DataSource
provides extra information, such as the file name, that a CommandMap implementation may use to further refine the list of commands that are returned. The implementation in this class simply calls thegetPreferredCommands
method that ignores this argument.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME typeds
- a DataSource for the data- Returns:
- the CommandInfo classes that represent the command Beans.
- Since:
- JAF 1.1
-
getAllCommands
public abstract CommandInfo[] getAllCommands(String mimeType)
Get all the available commands for this type. This method should return all the possible commands for this MIME type.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME type- Returns:
- the CommandInfo objects representing all the commands.
-
getAllCommands
public CommandInfo[] getAllCommands(String mimeType, DataSource ds)
Get all the available commands for this type. This method should return all the possible commands for this MIME type.The
DataSource
provides extra information, such as the file name, that a CommandMap implementation may use to further refine the list of commands that are returned. The implementation in this class simply calls thegetAllCommands
method that ignores this argument.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME typeds
- a DataSource for the data- Returns:
- the CommandInfo objects representing all the commands.
- Since:
- JAF 1.1
-
getCommand
public abstract CommandInfo getCommand(String mimeType, String cmdName)
Get the default command corresponding to the MIME type.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME typecmdName
- the command name- Returns:
- the CommandInfo corresponding to the command.
-
getCommand
public CommandInfo getCommand(String mimeType, String cmdName, DataSource ds)
Get the default command corresponding to the MIME type.The
DataSource
provides extra information, such as the file name, that a CommandMap implementation may use to further refine the command that is chosen. The implementation in this class simply calls thegetCommand
method that ignores this argument.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME typecmdName
- the command nameds
- a DataSource for the data- Returns:
- the CommandInfo corresponding to the command.
- Since:
- JAF 1.1
-
createDataContentHandler
public abstract DataContentHandler createDataContentHandler(String mimeType)
Locate a DataContentHandler that corresponds to the MIME type. The mechanism and semantics for determining this are determined by the implementation of the particular CommandMap.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME type- Returns:
- the DataContentHandler for the MIME type
-
createDataContentHandler
public DataContentHandler createDataContentHandler(String mimeType, DataSource ds)
Locate a DataContentHandler that corresponds to the MIME type. The mechanism and semantics for determining this are determined by the implementation of the particular CommandMap.The
DataSource
provides extra information, such as the file name, that a CommandMap implementation may use to further refine the choice of DataContentHandler. The implementation in this class simply calls thecreateDataContentHandler
method that ignores this argument.- Parameters:
mimeType
- the MIME typeds
- a DataSource for the data- Returns:
- the DataContentHandler for the MIME type
- Since:
- JAF 1.1
-
getMimeTypes
public String[] getMimeTypes()
Get all the MIME types known to this command map. If the command map doesn't support this operation, null is returned.- Returns:
- array of MIME types as strings, or null if not supported
- Since:
- JAF 1.1
