public class AnimationLoader
extends java.lang.Object

An AnimationLoader loads or generates a sequence of CAS animation frames from a variety of sources: a CAS file, a SAX input-source, a SiGML file, URL or String.

The hasAnimation() and getAnimation() methods give access to the results of the latest load/generation operation, such as they may be.

Constructor Summary

AnimationLoader(JAOptions jopts)
Constructs a new animation loader supported by the given JA-options set.

Method Summary

SiGMLAnimation	getAnimation() Returns this loader's current SiGMLAnimation data-set, or null if it has none.
boolean	hasAnimation() Indicates whether or not this loader currently has a valid SiGMLAnimation data-set.
void	loadAnimationForCAS(java.net.URL casurl) Loads an animation consisting of a sequence of CAS frames from the given file.
void	loadAnimationForSiGML(java.lang.String sigml) Generates a SiGMLAnimation data set, including a sequence of CAS frames, from the given SiGML string.
void	loadAnimationForSiGML(java.net.URL sigmlurl) Loads a SiGML string from the given URL, and generates from it a SiGMLAnimation data set, including a sequence of CAS frames.
