public FDFCatalog() 
{
        catalog = new COSDictionary();
}

Default constructor.

 public FDFCatalog(COSDictionary cat) 
{
        catalog = cat;
}

Constructor.

Parameters:

cat - The FDF documents catalog.

 public FDFCatalog(Element element) throws IOException 
{
        this();
        FDFDictionary fdfDict = new FDFDictionary( element );
        setFDF( fdfDict );
}

This will create an FDF catalog from an XFDF XML document.

Parameters:

element - The XML document that contains the XFDF data.

Throws:

IOException - If there is an error reading from the dom.

 public COSDictionary getCOSDictionary() 
{
        return catalog;
}

Convert this standard java object to a COS object.

 public COSBase getCOSObject() 
{
        return catalog;
}

Convert this standard java object to a COS object.

 public FDFDictionary getFDF() 
{
        COSDictionary fdf = (COSDictionary)catalog.getDictionaryObject( "FDF" );
        FDFDictionary retval = null;
        if( fdf != null )
        {
            retval = new FDFDictionary( fdf );
        }
        else
        {
            retval = new FDFDictionary();
            setFDF( retval );
        }
        return retval;
}

This will get the FDF dictionary.

 public PDSignature getSignature() 
{
        PDSignature signature = null;
        COSDictionary sig = (COSDictionary)catalog.getDictionaryObject( "Sig" );
        if( sig != null )
        {
            signature = new PDSignature( sig );
        }
        return signature;
}

This will get the signature or null if there is none.

 public String getVersion() 
{
        return catalog.getNameAsString( "Version" );
}

This will get the version that was specified in the catalog dictionary.

 public  void setFDF(FDFDictionary fdf) 
{
        catalog.setItem( "FDF", fdf );
}

This will set the FDF document.

 public  void setSignature(PDSignature sig) 
{
        catalog.setItem( "Sig", sig );
}

This will set the signature that is associated with this catalog.

 public  void setVersion(String version) 
{
        catalog.setName( "Version", version );
}

This will set the version of the FDF document.

 public  void writeXML(Writer output) throws IOException 
{
        FDFDictionary fdf = getFDF();
        fdf.writeXML( output );
}

This will write this element as an XML document.
