Method Detail

getConfig

protected org.apache.commons.collections.ExtendedProperties getConfig()

Deprecated.

Get the value of config.

Returns:

ExtendedProperties value of config.

getStatus

public java.lang.String getStatus()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: SportwireFeed

getStatus: return a status string reporting on the state of the feed parser; used by the XMLRPC status monitor

Specified by:

getStatus in interface SportwireFeed

Following copied from interface: ca.cbc.sportwire.feed.SportwireFeed

Returns:

a String value

getLastTag

public java.lang.String getLastTag()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: SportwireFeed

getLastTag returns a meaningful name of the last story read through the Reader

Specified by:

getLastTag in interface SportwireFeed

Following copied from interface: ca.cbc.sportwire.feed.SportwireFeed

Returns:

a String value

getStorybuffer

private java.lang.StringBuffer getStorybuffer()

Deprecated.

getInstance

public static SportwireFeed getInstance(org.apache.commons.collections.ExtendedProperties sc)

Deprecated.

getInstance returns the Singleton, synchronized to protect against concurrent invocations.

Returns:

a SportwireFeed value

fixupXml

protected java.lang.String fixupXml(java.lang.String line)

Deprecated.

fixupXml: Sportsticker XML contains errors that will not parse with standard XML tools like Xerces. As each line is read, it passes through this method where ampersands and other illegal chars are replaced and the strange ESPN date format is re-arranged into something more friendly to Java and RDBMS. As time goes on, there are likely to be more patches tucked into this method. This method also picks out the lastTag.

Parameters:

line - a String value

Returns:

a String value

skipToNext

public void skipToNext()
                throws java.io.IOException

Deprecated.

Method: 'skipToNext' syncs the ticker to the next complete story; if it was already at the top of a story, this scraps that one and moves on to the next.

Specified by:

skipToNext in interface SportwireFeed

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if a read error occurs

bufferStory

protected int bufferStory()
                   throws java.io.IOException

Deprecated.

Describe bufferStory method here.

Returns:

int count of lines in this story

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs

storyReader

public java.io.Reader storyReader()
                           throws java.io.IOException

Deprecated.

Method: 'storyReader' provides a StringReader over the internal story buffer. The storybuffer is replaced with each call to skipToNext.

Specified by:

storyReader in interface SportwireFeed

Returns:

'Reader' value

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs
