Class LogTailOptions

java.lang.Object

com.perforce.p4java.option.server.LogTailOptions

public class LogTailOptions extends Options
Options class for Perforce IOptionsServer.getLogtail methods.
  • Field Details

    • OPTIONS_SPECS

      public static final String OPTIONS_SPECS
      Options: -b[blockSize], -s[startingOffset], -m[maxBlocks]
      See Also:
    • blockSize

      protected long blockSize
      If greater than zero, specifies the block size in bytes (default 8192). Corresponds to the -b flag.
    • startingOffset

      protected long startingOffset
      If positive, enables you to specify the offset from the beginning of the file (in bytes). Corresponds to the -s flag.
    • maxBlocks

      protected int maxBlocks
      If greater than zero, specifies a maximum number of blocks to output. This flag is ignored unless the -s flag is specified. Corresponds to the -m flag.
  • Constructor Details

    • LogTailOptions

      public LogTailOptions()
      Default constructor.
    • LogTailOptions

      public LogTailOptions(String... options)
      Strings-based constructor; see 'p4 help [command]' for possible options.

      WARNING: you should not pass more than one option or argument in each string parameter. Each option or argument should be passed-in as its own separate string parameter, without any spaces between the option and the option value (if any).

      NOTE: setting options this way always bypasses the internal options values, and getter methods against the individual values corresponding to the strings passed in to this constructor will not normally reflect the string's setting. Do not use this constructor unless you know what you're doing and / or you do not also use the field getters and setters.

      Parameters:
      options - options
      See Also:
    • LogTailOptions

      public LogTailOptions(long blockSize, long startingOffset, int maxBlocks)
      Explicit value constructor.
      Parameters:
      blockSize - blockSize
      startingOffset - startingOffset
      maxBlocks - maxBlocks
  • Method Details

    • processOptions

      public List<String> processOptions(IServer server) throws OptionsException
      Description copied from class: Options
      Turn this (specific) options object into a list of strings to be sent to the Perforce server as options for a specific command. As a side effect, set the option list associated with this Option to the result.

      The method is used by the server object to generate the string-based arguments expected by the Perforce server corresponding to the state of this method-specific options object. Will return an empty list if there are no "interesting" options set or available. May simply return the superclass options string list if is non-null, but that behaviour is neither guaranteed nor required.

      Note that this method is not intended to be called directly by users but by the underlying P4Java plumbing; odd results may occur if this method is called in other contexts.

      Specified by:
      processOptions in class Options
      Parameters:
      server - possibly-null IServer representing the Perforce server the options are to be used against. If this parameter is null, it is acceptable to throw an OptionsException, but it is also possible to ignore it and do the best you can with what you've got...
      Returns:
      non-null (but possibly empty) string list representing the normalized Perforce server arguments corresponding to the state of this specific options object.
      Throws:
      OptionsException - if an error occurs in options processing that is not some species of ConnectionException, RequestException, AccessException, etc.

    • getStartingOffset

      public long getStartingOffset()
      Gets the offset from the beginning of the file (in bytes).
      Returns:
