Method Detail

get_RetrievalName

java.lang.String get_RetrievalName()

Returns the value of the RetrievalName property. For more information, see RetrievalName Property.

set_RetrievalName

void set_RetrievalName(java.lang.String value)

Sets the value of the RetrievalName property. For more information, see RetrievalName Property.

get_ContentSize

java.lang.Double get_ContentSize()

Returns the value of the ContentSize property. For more information, see ContentSize Property.

get_ContentSignature

byte[] get_ContentSignature()

Returns the value of the ContentSignature property. For more information, see ContentSignature Property.

setCaptureSource

void setCaptureSource(java.io.InputStream source)

Specifies an input stream as the source of content data for this ContentTransfer object. The Content Engine will not automatically close the stream after access has finished; unless you want the stream to remain open, your application should close the stream once all of the content data has been read by the server. The stream can safely be closed after you have added this ContentTransfer object to the ContentElements collection of a document or annotation and called that object's save method.

Parameters:

source - An InputStream object specifying the source of the content data.

Throws:

E_NULL_OR_INVALID_PARAM_VALUE - if the source parameter is null.

accessContentStream

java.io.InputStream accessContentStream()

Obtains read access, via an input stream, to the content data of this ContentTransfer object. The content data is fetched from the server. The Content Platform Engine will not automatically close the stream after access has finished; unless you want the stream to remain open, your application should close the stream after it has finished reading the content data.

Returns:

An InputStream object for reading content data. To retrieve content at arbitrary positions within the stream, cast the returned InputStream to ExtendedInputStream and use the methods on ExtendedInputStream.
