public class FitsTableBuilder extends java.lang.Object implements uk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder, uk.ac.starlink.table.MultiTableBuilder
Implementation of the TableBuilder interface which gets StarTables from FITS files.The table implementation used by uncompressed binary FITS tables stored on disk maps the file into memory (
MappedByteBuffer
) rather than reading the stream as such; this makes table construction very fast and cheap on memory, regardless of storage policy. This behaviour can be inhibited by referring to the file location as a URL (e.g. "file:spec23.fits" rather than "spec23.fits"), which fools the handler into thinking that it can't be mapped.Limited support is provided for the HEALPix-FITS convention; the relevant
HealpixTableInfo
table parameters are added, but any BAD_DATA keyword value is ignored, and the 1024-element array-valued column variant of the format is not understood.- Author:

getFormatName
public java.lang.String getFormatName()
Returns "FITS".- Specified by:

in interfaceuk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder

makeStarTable
public uk.ac.starlink.table.StarTable makeStarTable(uk.ac.starlink.util.DataSource datsrc, boolean wantRandom, uk.ac.starlink.table.StoragePolicy policy) throws java.io.IOException
Creates a StarTable from a DataSource which refers to a FITS file or stream. If the source has a position attribute, it will be interpreted in one of two ways:- If it's an integer, it will be interpreted as the index of the HDU holding the table. The first HDU is number 0 (though being primary this one can't hold a table), the first extension is number 1, etc.
- Otherwise it's interpreted as the name of the extension. Either of the forms "EXTNAME" or "EXTNAME-EXTVER" is permitted, where EXTNAME and EXTVER are the values of the corresponding FITS header cards, as per the FITS standard.
If the EXTNAME happens to be in the form of a positive integer, this means you can't refer to the extension by name. Too bad.
If there is no position attribute, the first HDU which does hold a table is used.
- Specified by:
makeStarTable
in interfaceuk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder
- Parameters:
datsrc
- the source of the FITS table datawantRandom
- whether a random-access table is preferredpolicy
- a StoragePolicy object which may be used to supply scratch storage if the builder needs it- Returns:
- a new StarTable based on datsrc, or null if it doesn't look like a FITS table
- Throws:
java.io.IOException

public boolean canImport(java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor flavor)
Returns true for a flavor with the MIME type "application/fits".- Specified by:

streamStarTable
public void streamStarTable(java.io.InputStream istrm, uk.ac.starlink.table.TableSink sink, java.lang.String extnum) throws java.io.IOException
Reads a FITS table from an input stream and writes it to a sink.- Specified by:
streamStarTable
in interfaceuk.ac.starlink.table.TableBuilder
- Parameters:
istrm
- input stream containing the FITS datasink
- destination for table dataextnum
- may contain a string representation of the HDU number in which the required table is found (otherwise the first table HDU will be used)- Throws:
java.io.IOException
-
findNamedTable
public static uk.ac.starlink.table.StarTable findNamedTable(nom.tam.util.ArrayDataInput strm, uk.ac.starlink.util.DataSource datsrc, java.lang.String name, WideFits wide, long[] pos) throws nom.tam.fits.FitsException, java.io.IOException
Looks through the HDUs in a given FITS stream and if it finds one which has a given name, attempts to make a table out of it. The suppliedname
is checked against the EXTNAME header value (if present), and if that fails, against EXTNAME-EXTVER (if EXTVER is present too). Matching is case-insensitive.- Parameters:
strm
- stream to read from, positioned at the start of an HDU (before the header)datsrc
- a DataSource which can supply the data in strmname
- target extension name or name-versionwide
- convention for representing extended columns; use null to avoid use of extended columnspos
- a 1-element array holding the position in datsrc at which strm is positioned - it's an array so it can be updated by this routine (sorry)- Returns:
- a new table
- Throws:
nom.tam.fits.FitsException
java.io.IOException
-
attemptReadTable
public static uk.ac.starlink.table.StarTable attemptReadTable(nom.tam.util.ArrayDataInput strm, boolean wantRandom, uk.ac.starlink.util.DataSource datsrc, WideFits wide, long[] pos) throws nom.tam.fits.FitsException, java.io.IOException
Reads the next header, and returns a StarTable based on it if it represents a table. If a StarTable is returned, it may not be safe to use the supplied input stream subsequently for other purposes. If the next HDU is some non-table type,null
is returned and the stream is advanced to the end of that HDU; in this case the stream may continue to be used (e.g. for further calls to this method).On exit, the first element of the
pos
array contains the position after the current HDU.- Parameters:
strm
- stream to read from, positioned at the start of an HDU (before the header)wantRandom
- whether a random-access table is preferreddatsrc
- a DataSource which can supply the data in strmwide
- convention for representing extended columns; use null to avoid use of extended columnspos
- a 1-element array holding the position in datsrc at which strm is positioned - it's an array so it can be updated by this routine (sorry)- Returns:
- a StarTable made from the HDU at the start of strm or null
- Throws:
nom.tam.fits.FitsException
java.io.IOException
