Interface ParserFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

CsvParserFactory, DelimitedParserFactory, FixedLengthParserFactory, FlatParserFactory, JsonParserFactory, ParserFactorySupport, XmlParserFactory

public interface ParserFactory

A ParserFactory is used to convert a stream configuration (i.e. StreamConfig) into a stream parser (i.e. Stream).

A new parser factory is used to parse each stream configuration, thus implementations need not worry about thread safety.

All properties (e.g. classLoader) are set before createStream(StreamConfig) is invoked.

2.0
