Parameters:

fileName - The name fo the file containing the events.

encoding - The name of the character encoding.

Throws:

IOException - Thrown if the specified file can not be read.

RealValueFileEventStream

public RealValueFileEventStream(File file)
                         throws IOException

Instantiates a RealValueFileEventStream via a File.

Parameters:

file - The File that holds events.

Throws:

IOException - Thrown if the specified file can not be read.

Method Detail

parseContexts

public static float[] parseContexts(String[] contexts)

Parses the specified contexts and re-populates context array with features and returns the values for these features. If all values are unspecified, then null is returned.

Parameters:

contexts - The contexts with real values specified.

Returns:

The value for each context or null if all values are unspecified.

read

public Event read()
           throws IOException

Description copied from interface: ObjectStream

Returns the next ObjectStream object. Calling this method repeatedly until it returns null will return each object from the underlying source exactly once.

Specified by:

read in interface ObjectStream<Event>

Overrides:

read in class FileEventStream

Returns:

The next object or null to signal that the stream is exhausted.

Throws:

IOException - Thrown if there is an error during reading.
