Constructor Detail

SignatureBlock

public SignatureBlock(List signatureTypes)

The default constructor to analyse a signature block string. It uses a predefined signature type list to assign the text block to signature type. The analyse method have to be call separately --> separateBlockFromRawText()

Parameters:

signatureTypes -

Method Detail

separateBlockFromRawText

public boolean separateBlockFromRawText(String rawText,
                                        boolean old_style)

This method is the base method to analyse a raw text separating a signature block string from the raw text. It searches for corresponding signature types from back to front in the raw text. Therefore a revert list of multiple signations can be extracted calling this method more than one times. The method extracts the start and end postition of a found signature block and extracts all keys used in that block. If all required fields are found a successful separation is done and can be access calling the method getStartIndex, getEndIndex, getType, getSignatureObject.

Parameters:

rawText - the raw text to separate a signature block from

Returns:

true if a separation has done successful false if no signature block can be found

getEndIndex

public int getEndIndex()

Returns:

Returns the endIndex.

getSignatureObject

public SignatureObject getSignatureObject()
                                   throws SignatureException

Returns:

Returns the signatureObject of the separated signature block.

Throws:

SignatureException

getStartIndex

public int getStartIndex()

Returns:

Returns the startIndex.

getType

public String getType()

Returns:

Returns the type.

toString

public String toString()

The standard toString method. Used for interal tests only.

Overrides:

toString in class Object
