Deprecated. Use org.apache.turbine.util.parser.DataStreamParser instead.

public abstract class DataStreamParser

extends DataStreamParser

DataStreamParser is used to parse a stream with a fixed format and generate ValueParser objects which can be used to extract the values in the desired type.

The class itself is abstract - a concrete subclass which implements the initTokenizer method such as CSVParser or TSVParser is required to use the functionality.

The class implements the java.util.Iterator interface for convenience. This allows simple use in a Velocity template for example:

 #foreach ($row in $datastream)
   Name: $row.Name
   Description: $row.Description
 #end
