Returns an MD5 checksum of the contents of this file.

  closeReader()

Resets the capability to read lines to the beginning of the file.

File copy()

Returns a copy of the file

FileBuffer createFileBuffer()

Reads this compressed file and returns a FileBuffer. Throws exception if this not a supported type (zip and jar).

File decrypt(String password, String filename)

Returns a new file. Assumes the content of this file is PGP encrypted.

File encrypt(String password)

Returns a new file with the content of this file PGP encrypted. The new file's filename will be existing filename+.txt

String getContentType()

Returns the content type of this file

String getFailureMessage()

When isValid is false, contains failure message.

String getFileExtension()

Returns the file extension. 'Myfile.doc' returns 'doc'

int getFileLength()

Returns the size of the file in bytes.

int getFileSize()

Returns the size of the file in kilobytes.

String getFileType()

String getFilename()

Returns the name of the uploaded file (without the full path).

DataReader getReader()

Opens a data reader for this file. File type should be list compatible.

XMLReader getXMLReader(boolean removeNamespaces)

Returns a ServicePayload for processing XML-based files. Returns null if the file is not XML.

boolean isAdHocConversionSupported()

Returns true if the content supports immediate conversion to adhoc. See Packet.createAdHocDocument(File,...)

boolean isCorrectType()

If xls, it will also attempt to find a matching tab by name and if that fails, it will return the first tab. Throws exception if invalid or unsupported file format.

Payload readDataLists()

Creates a Payload of PacketDataList from the contents of this file. The contents must support DataList conversion (currently .csv and .xls). If xls, this will execute formulas. This method also takes liberties with regard to column names. If it encounters any blank column name it assumes the first row is data and renames all the columns as col0 - colN. Throws exception if invalid or unsupported file format.
