Interface ISubContentGenerator

Represents a set of bilingual content processors, native content processors, and a native writer, which work together to output native files from bilingual content.

Namespace: Sdl.FileTypeSupport.Framework.IntegrationApi

Assembly: Sdl.FileTypeSupport.Framework.Core.dll

Syntax

public interface ISubContentGenerator : IBilingualProcessorContainer, IAbstractGenerator, IFileTypeDefinitionAware

Properties

AllComponents

Called by the framework during component initialization to initialize components that implement special interfaces such as ISharedObjectsAware before processing starts.

Declaration

IEnumerable<object> AllComponents { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IEnumerable<object>	All native and bilingual file type components

BilingualWriter

Writer for a bilingual output format, or null if a native output format is used.

Declaration

IBilingualWriter BilingualWriter { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IBilingualWriter

Remarks

This is intended for writers of bilingual formats representing single files (e.g. TTX, ITD, etc.). It is NOT for bilingual document writers (e.g. SDL XLIFF). Those should rather be used with a IBilingualDocumentGenerator.

When a bilingual writer is set, the ToNativeConverter and the NativeSubContentGenerator are not used.

FileTweakers

The file tweakers used by the generator, in the order in which they will be invoked.

File tweakers should be added using AddFileTweaker(IFilePostTweaker).

Declaration

IEnumerable<IFilePostTweaker> FileTweakers { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IEnumerable<IFilePostTweaker>

Input

All content input to the converter is passed as calls on this interface.

Declaration

IBilingualContentHandler Input { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IBilingualContentHandler

ItemFactory

The framework will set this property as part of the initialization.

While building bilingual components this factory should be used to create any items that are inserted in the bilingual content model.

Declaration

IDocumentItemFactory ItemFactory { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IDocumentItemFactory

NativeOutputProperties

Properties and settings used when writing the native file. If set, these properties are communicated to all file type components that implement the INativeContentCycleAware interface.

Declaration

INativeOutputFileProperties NativeOutputProperties { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
INativeOutputFileProperties

NativeSubContentGenerator

The components used to output native content to a file in native format in the source or target language.

Declaration

INativeSubContentGenerator NativeSubContentGenerator { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
INativeSubContentGenerator

NativeVerifiers

The native verifiers that are currently used by the generator.

Verifiers should be added using AddNativeVerifier(INativeFileVerifier).

Declaration

IEnumerable<INativeFileVerifier> NativeVerifiers { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IEnumerable<INativeFileVerifier>

ToNativeConverter

The component used when converting bilingual content into native source or target content.

Declaration

IBilingualToNativeConverter ToNativeConverter { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IBilingualToNativeConverter

Methods

AddFileTweaker(IFilePostTweaker)

Appends a file tweaker that will be used to modify the output file after generating.

Declaration

void AddFileTweaker(IFilePostTweaker tweaker)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IFilePostTweaker	tweaker

AddNativeVerifier(INativeFileVerifier)

Appends a native verifier that will be run on the output file after it has been generated.

Declaration

void AddNativeVerifier(INativeFileVerifier verifier)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
INativeFileVerifier	verifier	The native verifier to add

RemoveFileTweaker(IFilePostTweaker)

Removes the tweaker from the generator.

Declaration

void RemoveFileTweaker(IFilePostTweaker tweakerToRemove)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IFilePostTweaker	tweakerToRemove	The file tweaker to remove

Events

Message

Raised when a message is reported by a file type component.

Declaration

event EventHandler<MessageEventArgs> Message

Event Type

Type	Description
EventHandler<MessageEventArgs>

Remarks

The file path property needs not be set in the event args.
