13.13. VariableFieldRecordParser and VariableFieldRecordParserFactory
VariableFieldRecordParser and VariableFieldRecordParserFactory are abstract implementations of the RecordParser and RecordParserFactory interface. They provide very useful base implementations for a Flat File Reader, providing base support for:
- Utility Java binding configurations
- Support for "variable field" records, that is, a flat file message that contains multiple record definitions
- The ability to read the next record chunk, with support for a simple record delimiter, or a regular expression (Regex) pattern that marks the beginning of each record
- The CSV and Regex readers are implemented using these abstract classes
