Cloneable
public class Manifest extends Object implements Cloneable

-
Manifest
public Manifest(InputStream is) throws IOException
Constructs a new Manifest from the specified input stream.- Parameters:
is- the input stream containing manifest data- Throws:
IOException- if an I/O error has occurred
-

Method Detail
-
getMainAttributes
public Attributes getMainAttributes()
Returns the main Attributes for the Manifest.- Returns:
- the main Attributes for the Manifest
-
getEntries
public Map<String,Attributes> getEntries()
Returns a Map of the entries contained in this Manifest. Each entry is represented by a String name (key) and associated Attributes (value). The Map permits thenullkey, but no entry with a null key is created byread(java.io.InputStream), nor is such an entry written by usingwrite(java.io.OutputStream).- Returns:
- a Map of the entries contained in this Manifest
-
getAttributes
public Attributes getAttributes(String name)
Returns the Attributes for the specified entry name. This method is defined as:return (Attributes)getEntries().get(name)Thoughnullis a validname, whengetAttributes(null)is invoked on aManifestobtained from a jar file,nullwill be returned. While jar files themselves do not allownull-named attributes, it is possible to invokegetEntries()on aManifest, and on that result, invokeputwith a null key and an arbitrary value. Subsequent invocations ofgetAttributes(null)will return the just-putvalue.Note that this method does not return the manifest's main attributes; see
getMainAttributes().- Parameters:
name- entry name- Returns:
- the Attributes for the specified entry name
-
clear
public void clear()
Clears the main Attributes as well as the entries in this Manifest.
-
write
public void write(OutputStream out) throws IOException
Writes the Manifest to the specified OutputStream. Attributes.Name.MANIFEST_VERSION must be set in MainAttributes prior to invoking this method.- Parameters:
out- the output stream- Throws:
IOException- if an I/O error has occurred- See Also:
getMainAttributes()
-
read
public void read(InputStream is) throws IOException
Reads the Manifest from the specified InputStream. The entry names and attributes read will be merged in with the current manifest entries.- Parameters:
is- the input stream- Throws:
IOException- if an I/O error has occurred
-
equals
public boolean equals(Object o)
Returns true if the specified Object is also a Manifest and has the same main Attributes and entries.- Overrides:
equalsin classObject- Parameters:
o- the object to be compared- Returns:
- true if the specified Object is also a Manifest and has the same main Attributes and entries
- See Also:
Object.hashCode(),HashMap
-
hashCode
public int hashCode()
Returns the hash code for this Manifest.- Overrides:
hashCodein classObject- Returns:
- a hash code value for this object.

Object.equals(java.lang.Object),System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
