public final class FixCrLfFilter
extends BaseParamFilterReader
implements ChainableReader
Converts text to local OS formatting conventions, as well as repair text damaged by misconfigured or misguided editors or file transfer programs.

This filter can take the following arguments:

  • eof
  • eol
  • fixlast
  • javafiles
  • tab
  • tablength
None of which are required.

This version generalises the handling of EOL characters, and allows for CR-only line endings (the standard on Mac systems prior to OS X). Tab handling has also been generalised to accommodate any tabwidth from 2 to 80, inclusive. Importantly, it can leave untouched any literal TAB characters embedded within Java string or character constants.

Caution: run with care on carefully formatted files. This may sound obvious, but if you don't specify asis, presume that your files are going to be modified. If "tabs" is "add" or "remove", whitespace characters may be added or removed as necessary. Similarly, for EOLs, eol="asis" actually means convert to your native O/S EOL convention while eol="crlf" or cr="add" can result in CR characters being removed in one special case accommodated, i.e., CRCRLF is regarded as a single EOL to handle cases where other programs have converted CRLF into CRCRLF.

Example:

 <<fixcrlf tab="add" eol="crlf" eof="asis"/>
 
Or:
 <filterreader classname="org.apache.tools.ant.filters.FixCrLfFilter">
   <param eol="crlf" tab="asis"/>
  </filterreader>

      public java.io.Reader chain​(java.io.Reader rdr)
      Create a new FixCrLfFilter using the passed in Reader for instantiation.
      Specified by:
      chain in interface ChainableReader
      Parameters:
      rdr - A Reader object providing the underlying stream. Must not be null.
      Returns:
      a new filter based on this configuration, but filtering the specified reader.
    • getEof

      public FixCrLfFilter.AddAsisRemove getEof()
      Get how DOS EOF (control-z) characters are being handled.
      Returns:
      values:
      • add: ensure that there is an eof at the end of the file
      • asis: leave eof characters alone
      • remove: remove any eof character found at the end
    • getEol

      public FixCrLfFilter.CrLf getEol()
      Get how EndOfLine characters are being handled.

      values:
      • asis: convert line endings to your O/S convention
