Member Function Documentation

static int MetNoFimex::CDMFileReaderFactory::detectFileType ( const std::string fileName  )  [static]

detect the filetype of a input-file

The detectFileType function uses heuristics (appendix, magic characters) to detect the filetype

Parameters:
fileName input file
Returns:
one of the MIFI_FILETYPE_* flags
Exceptions:
if file not found

static boost::shared_ptr<CDMReader> MetNoFimex::CDMFileReaderFactory::create ( int  fileType,
const std::string fileName,
const std::string configFile,
const std::vector< std::string > &  args 
) [static]

Factory for CDMReader of input-files.

The function create reader tries to create a reader by filetype MIFI_FILETYPE_*. The optional arguments are defined by the different readers. Use default objects (empty string, empty vector) if arguments are not desired.

Parameters:
fileNype,one of MIFI_FILETYPE_*, possibly read by detectFileType()
fileName,name of input type
configFile 
options optional options for the CDMReader
Returns:
pointer to CDMReader
Exceptions:
CDMException if type not compiled in, or creation fails
