Class CSVTool

java.lang.Object
com.oss.asn1.CSVTool
public final class CSVTool extends Object
Implements conversion of an AbstractData data object to CSV format. The class supports the following settings that can be used to customize the output CSV:

Minimum nesting level of simple values included in the CSV To create a partial CSV, select the Minimum nesting level inside a PDU type, used as a starting point for including simple values in the output CSV.
Maximum nesting level of simple values included in the CSV To create a partial CSV, select the maximum nesting level inside a PDU type, starting from which values of simple types should NOT be included in the output CSV.
Column separator A character sequence used to separate column values and column names in the CSV header.
Header name separator A character sequence used to separate the components of the full column name in the CSV header.
Maximum number of extra CSVs for SET OF/SEQUENCE OF Values of SET OF and SEQUENCE OF types with multiple components are mapped into several CSV records where only one component differs and the rest are repeated. This setting can be used to limit the maximum number of components in each SET OF or SEQUENCE OF for which an extra CSV should be created.
PDU name Enable this setting to prefix the first column name of the CSV header with the PDU name.
Layout Selects the layout of the CSV output.
Header Selects the CSV header format in the CSV output.
BOOLEAN format Specifies how BOOLEAN values are presented in the CSV output.
ENUMERATED format Specifies how ENUMERATED values are presented in the CSV output.
OCTET STRING format Specifies how binary data contained in an OCTET STRING type are presented in the CSV output.
GeneralizedTime format Specifies how GeneralizedTime type values are presented in the CSV output.

ASN.1/Java 8.4

      Enables or disables custom formatting of simple values in the CSV output. Particular schemas use binary data (OCTET STRING) to represent time stamp values, BCD numbers, or IP addresses. You can use customized formatting to display such binary data in human-readable format. To implement custom formatting, use the OSS.UserClass directive and extend the generated Java class to implement the CustomFormatting interface. Because detection of components that implement custom formatting adds a minor overhead, this setting is disabled by default.

      enable - when the parameter is true, custom formatting of simple values is enabled in the CSV output.

      CSVPrintFailedException - Thrown to indicate that the input object contains invalid data and cannot be converted to CSV.

    • setCSVSettings

      public void setCSVSettings(CSVTool.Settings setting)
      Sets the format of the CSV output using predefined configurations.
      Parameters:
