See Also:

MimeParserFactory, IMimeOperator, IMimeObject

Method Summary

IMimeObject	getObject() Returns a corresponding object implementing the IMimeObject interface.
void	pushBytes(ByteBuf buffer) Feed bytes to be parsed into the parser.
void	pushEOF() Inform the parser that no more bytes will be forthcoming.
void	setOperator(IMimeOperator op) Set the IMimeOperator associated with this parser.

Method Detail

setOperator

public void setOperator(IMimeOperator op)

Set the IMimeOperator associated with this parser. Since the parsers and operators both need access to each other, one will create a parser, then create an operator for it, then point the parser at the operator using this method. It is an error to try and change the operator once it has already been set.

pushBytes

public void pushBytes(ByteBuf buffer)

Feed bytes to be parsed into the parser.

pushEOF

public void pushEOF()

Inform the parser that no more bytes will be forthcoming.

getObject

public IMimeObject getObject()

Returns a corresponding object implementing the IMimeObject interface. This will very likely be the same object.
