All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PdfReader.StrictnessLevel>

Enclosing class:

PdfReader

public static enum PdfReader.StrictnessLevel
extends Enum<PdfReader.StrictnessLevel>

Enumeration representing the strictness level for reading.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
CONSERVATIVE The reading strictness level at which iText fails (throws an exception) in case of contradiction with PDF specification, but still recovers from mild parsing errors and ambiguities.
LENIENT The reading strictness level at which iText tries to recover from parsing errors if possible.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	isStricter(PdfReader.StrictnessLevel compareWith) Checks whether the current instance represents more strict reading level than the provided one.
static PdfReader.StrictnessLevel	valueOf(String name) Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static PdfReader.StrictnessLevel[]	values() Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

CONSERVATIVE

public static final PdfReader.StrictnessLevel CONSERVATIVE

The reading strictness level at which iText fails (throws an exception) in case of contradiction with PDF specification, but still recovers from mild parsing errors and ambiguities.

LENIENT

public static final PdfReader.StrictnessLevel LENIENT

The reading strictness level at which iText tries to recover from parsing errors if possible.

Method Detail

values

public static PdfReader.StrictnessLevel[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PdfReader.StrictnessLevel c : PdfReader.StrictnessLevel.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PdfReader.StrictnessLevel valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

isStricter

public boolean isStricter(PdfReader.StrictnessLevel compareWith)

Checks whether the current instance represents more strict reading level than the provided one. Note that the null is less strict than any other value.

Parameters:

compareWith - the PdfReader.StrictnessLevel to compare with

Returns:

true if the current level is stricter than the provided one
