public interface FlavorTable extends FlavorMap
A FlavorMap which relaxes the traditional 1-to-1 restriction of a Map. A flavor is permitted to map to any number of natives, and likewise a native is permitted to map to any number of flavors. FlavorTables need not be symmetric, but typically are.- Since:

Method Detail

getNativesForFlavor
List<String> getNativesForFlavor(DataFlavor flav)
Returns aList
ofString
natives to which the specifiedDataFlavor
corresponds. TheList
will be sorted from best native to worst. That is, the first native will best reflect data in the specified flavor to the underlying native platform. The returnedList
is a modifiable copy of thisFlavorTable
's internal data. Client code is free to modify theList
without affecting this object.- Parameters:
flav
- theDataFlavor
whose corresponding natives should be returned. Ifnull
is specified, all natives currently known to thisFlavorTable
are returned in a non-deterministic order.- Returns:
- a
java.util.List
ofjava.lang.String
objects which are platform-specific representations of platform- specific data formats
-
getFlavorsForNative
List<DataFlavor> getFlavorsForNative(String nat)
Returns aList
ofDataFlavor
s to which the specifiedString
corresponds. TheList
will be sorted from bestDataFlavor
to worst. That is, the firstDataFlavor
will best reflect data in the specified native to a Java application. The returnedList
is a modifiable copy of thisFlavorTable
's internal data. Client code is free to modify theList
without affecting this object.- Parameters:
nat
- the native whose correspondingDataFlavor
s should be returned. Ifnull
is specified, allDataFlavor
s currently known to thisFlavorTable
are returned in a non-deterministic order.- Returns:
- a
java.util.List
ofDataFlavor
objects into which platform-specific data in the specified, platform-specific native can be translated
