Method Detail

setRecord

public void setRecord(java.util.ArrayList recData)
               throws DBaseException

method: public setRecord(ArrayList recData) writes a data record to byte array representing the data section of the dBase file. The method gets the data type of each field in recData from fieldDesc wich has been set at the constructor.

Throws:

DBaseException

setRecord

public void setRecord(int index,
                      java.util.ArrayList recData)
               throws DBaseException

The method gets the data type of each field in recData from fieldDesc wich has been set at the constructor. index specifies the location of the retrieved record in the datasection. if an invalid index is used an exception will be thrown

Throws:

DBaseException

getDataSection
