Class Compression

java.lang.Object
  extended by javax.print.attribute.EnumSyntax
      extended by javax.print.attribute.standard.Compression
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, Attribute, DocAttribute

public class Compression
extends EnumSyntax
implements DocAttribute

Class Compression is a printing attribute class, an enumeration, that specifies how print data is compressed. Compression is an attribute of the print data (the doc), not of the Print Job. If a Compression attribute is not specified for a doc, the printer assumes the doc's print data is uncompressed (i.e., the default Compression value is always NONE).

IPP Compatibility: The category name returned by getName() is the IPP attribute name. The enumeration's integer value is the IPP enum value. The toString() method returns the IPP string representation of the attribute value.

Field Detail

NONE

public static final Compression NONE
No compression is used.


DEFLATE

ZIP public domain inflate/deflate compression technology.


GZIP

public static final Compression GZIP
GNU zip compression technology described in RFC 1952.


COMPRESS

public static final Compression COMPRESS
UNIX compression technology.

Constructor Detail

Compression

protected Compression(int value)
Construct a new compression enumeration value with the given integer value.

Parameters:
value - Integer value.
Method Detail

getStringTable

protected String[] getStringTable()
Returns the string table for class Compression.

Overrides:
getStringTable in class EnumSyntax
Returns:
the string table

getEnumValueTable

protected EnumSyntax[] getEnumValueTable()
Returns the enumeration value table for class Compression.

Overrides:
getEnumValueTable in class EnumSyntax
Returns:
the value table

getCategory

public final Class<? extends Attribute> getCategory()
Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value.

For class Compression and any vendor-defined subclasses, the category is class Compression itself.

Specified by:
getCategory in interface Attribute
Returns:
Printing attribute class (category), an instance of class java.lang.Class.

getName

public final String getName()
Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.

For class Compression and any vendor-defined subclasses, the category name is "compression".

Specified by:
getName in interface Attribute
Returns:
Attribute category name.
