Method Detail

encodeObjectByKey

public static java.lang.String encodeObjectByKey(java.lang.String objectTag,
                                                 java.util.Map kvp)

Encodes an Object tag name with key values into EPath notation.

Parameters:

objectTag - the object tag name

kvp - a map representing key-value pairs

Returns:

a EPath string representation of the object tag with qualifiers

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] argv)

The main program for the EPathParser class

Parameters:

argv - The command line arguments

parse

public static EPath parse(java.lang.String ePathStr)
                   throws EPathException

parses a FQFN into an EPath Object that has a predefined command queue which is used to traverse the object. Primary.Secondary[*].* returns all secondary objects of named Secondary matching all keys. Primary.Secondary[@someKey=somevalue,@somemorekey=somemorevalue].* returns the secondary object named Secondary and has key "someKey" of somevalue. Primary.Secondary[1].* access the secondary object by index AObject.BObject[2].CObject[3].* supports multiple levels of access for now, this method does not support Primary.Secondary[*].Field

Parameters:

ePathStr - valid EPath string

Returns:

parsed EPath object

Throws:

EPathException - exception in parsing
