Sets the format of the input instances.

Overrides:

setInputFormat in class Filter

Parameters:

instanceInfo - an Instances object containing the input instance structure (any instances contained in the object are ignored - only the structure is required).

Returns:

true if the outputFormat may be collected immediately

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if something goes wrong

input

public boolean input(Instance instance)

Description copied from class: Filter

Input an instance for filtering. Ordinarily the instance is processed and made available for output immediately. Some filters require all instances be read before producing output, in which case output instances should be collected after calling batchFinished(). If the input marks the start of a new batch, the output queue is cleared. This default implementation assumes all instance conversion will occur when batchFinished() is called.

Overrides:

input in class Filter

Parameters:

instance - the input instance

Returns:

true if the filtered instance may now be collected with output().

getRevision

public java.lang.String getRevision()

Returns the revision string.

Specified by:

getRevision in interface RevisionHandler

Overrides:

getRevision in class Filter

Returns:

the revision

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] argv)

Main method for testing this class.

Parameters:

argv - should contain arguments to the filter: use -h for help
