Class GGPGeomReader

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    GeomReader, java.lang.Comparable

    public class GGPGeomReader
    extends AbstractGeomReader
    A GeomReader for reading vehicle geometry from a GGP formatted geometry file. This is a geometry file format often used in conjunction with solution output from A502 (PANAIR) and A633 (TRANAIR). This class will only read in parameters from the GGP file with the names "X", "Y", and "Z". All other parameters are ignored. This class also assumes that all the parameters are contained in a single line and that the 1st format is duplicated throughout the file.

      Modifier and Type Method Description
      int canReadData​(java.io.File inputFile)
      Method that determines if this reader can read geometry from the specified input file.
      java.lang.String getExtension()
      Returns the preferred file extension (not including the ".") for files of this GeomReader's type.
      boolean isUnitAware()
      This method always returns false as GGP files do not encode the units that are being used.
      PointVehicle read​(java.io.File inputFile)
      Reads in a GGP formatted geometry file from the specified input file and returns a PointVehicle object that contains the geometry from the GGP file.
      java.lang.String toString()
      Returns a string representation of the object.

      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Returns a string representation of the object. This will return a brief description of the format read by this reader.
        Overrides:
        toString in class java.lang.Object
        Returns:
        A brief description of the format read by this reader.
      • getExtension

        public java.lang.String getExtension()
        Returns the preferred file extension (not including the ".") for files of this GeomReader's type.
        Returns:
        The preferred file extension for files of this readers type.
      • canReadData

        public int canReadData​(java.io.File inputFile)
                        throws java.io.IOException
        Method that determines if this reader can read geometry from the specified input file.
        Specified by:
        canReadData in interface GeomReader
        Overrides:
        canReadData in class AbstractGeomReader
        Parameters:
        inputFile - The input file containing the geometry to be read in. May not be null.
        Returns:
        GeomReader.NO if the file format is not recognized by this reader. GeomReader.YES if the file format is definitely recognized by this reader. GeomReader.MAYBE if the file format might be readable by this reader, but that can't easily be determined without actually reading the file.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException - If there is a problem reading from the specified file.
      • read

        public PointVehicle read​(java.io.File inputFile)
                          throws java.io.IOException
        Reads in a GGP formatted geometry file from the specified input file and returns a PointVehicle object that contains the geometry from the GGP file.

        A GGP file does not support multiple components, therefore, the vehicle returned will always contain a single component (or none at all if there was no data in the file).

        WARNING: This file format is not unit aware. You must set the units to be used by calling "setFileUnits()" before calling this method!

        Specified by:
        read in interface GeomReader
        Overrides:
        read in class AbstractGeomReader
        Parameters:
        inputFile - The input file containing the geometry to be read in. May not be null.
        Returns:
        A PointVehicle object containing the geometry read in from the file. If the file has no geometry in it, then this list will have no components in it (will have a size() of zero).
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException - If there is a problem reading the specified file.

      • isUnitAware

        public boolean isUnitAware()
        This method always returns false as GGP files do not encode the units that are being used. You must call setFileUnits to set the units being used before reading from a file of this format.
        Returns:
        true if this reader (and its format) is unit aware.
