Method Detail

findByMIMEType

BitstreamFormat findByMIMEType(Context context,
                               String mimeType)
                        throws SQLException

Find a bitstream format by its (unique) MIME type. If more than one bitstream format has the same MIME type, the one returned is unpredictable.

Parameters:

context - DSpace context object

mimeType - MIME type value

Returns:

the corresponding bitstream format, or null if there's no bitstream format with the given MIMEtype.

Throws:

SQLException - if database error

findByShortDescription

BitstreamFormat findByShortDescription(Context context,
                                       String desc)
                                throws SQLException

Find a bitstream format by its (unique) short description

Parameters:

context - DSpace context object

desc - the short description

Returns:

the corresponding bitstream format, or null if there's no bitstream format with the given short description

Throws:

SQLException - if database error

findUnknown

BitstreamFormat findUnknown(Context context)
                     throws SQLException

Get the generic "unknown" bitstream format.

Parameters:

context - DSpace context object

Returns:

the "unknown" bitstream format.

Throws:

SQLException - if database error

IllegalStateException - if the "unknown" bitstream format couldn't be found

findAll

List<BitstreamFormat> findAll(Context context)
                       throws SQLException

Retrieve all bitstream formats from the registry, ordered by ID

Parameters:

context - DSpace context object

Returns:

the bitstream formats.

Throws:

SQLException - if database error

findNonInternal

List<BitstreamFormat> findNonInternal(Context context)
                               throws SQLException

Retrieve all non-internal bitstream formats from the registry. The "unknown" format is not included, and the formats are ordered by support level (highest first) first then short description.

Parameters:

context - DSpace context object

Returns:

the bitstream formats.

Throws:

SQLException - if database error

setShortDescription

void setShortDescription(Context context,
                         BitstreamFormat bitstreamFormat,
                         String shortDescription)
                  throws SQLException

Set the short description of the bitstream format

Parameters:

context - context

bitstreamFormat - format

shortDescription - the new short description

Throws:

SQLException - if database error

getSupportLevelText

String getSupportLevelText(BitstreamFormat bitstreamFormat)

Get the support level text for this bitstream format - one of UNKNOWN,KNOWN or SUPPORTED.

Parameters:

Returns:

the support level

setSupportLevel

void setSupportLevel(BitstreamFormat bitstreamFormat,
                     int supportLevel)

Set the support level for this bitstream format - one of UNKNOWN,KNOWN or SUPPORTED.

Parameters:

bitstreamFormat - format

supportLevel - the new support level

getSupportLevelID

int getSupportLevelID(String supportLevel)

If you know the support level string, look up the corresponding type ID constant.

Parameters:

supportLevel - String with the name of the action (must be exact match)

Returns:

the corresponding action ID, or -1 if the action string is unknown

guessFormat

BitstreamFormat guessFormat(Context context,
                            Bitstream bitstream)
                     throws SQLException
