default constructor

 public ContinueRecord(short id,
    short size,
    byte[] data) 
{
        super(id, size, data);
}

Main constructor -- kinda dummy because we don't validate or fill fields

Parameters:

id - record id

size - record size

data - raw data

 public ContinueRecord(short id,
    short size,
    byte[] data,
    int offset) 
{
        super(id, size, data, offset);
}

Main constructor -- kinda dummy because we don't validate or fill fields

Parameters:

id - record id

size - record size

data - raw data

offset - of the record's data

 protected  void fillFields(byte[] data,
    short ignored_parm2) 
{
        // throw new RecordFormatException("Are you crazy?  Don't fill a continue record");
        // do nothing
}

Fill the fields. Only thing is, this record has no fields --

    short size,
    int offset) 
{

}

Fill the fields. Only thing is, this record has no fields --

 public byte[] getData() 
{
        return field_1_data;
}

get the data for continuation

 public short getSid() 
{
        return this.sid;
}

 public static byte[] processContinue(byte[] data) 
{
   // could do this recursively but that seems hard to debug
        // how many continue records do we need
        // System.out.println("In ProcessContinue");
        int       records   =
            (data.length
             / 8214);   // we've a 1 offset but we're also off by one due to rounding...so it balances out
        int       offset    = 8214;
        // System.out.println("we have "+records+" continue records to process");
        ArrayList crs       = new ArrayList(records);
        int       totalsize = 8214;
        byte[]    retval    = null;
        for (int cr = 0; cr <  records; cr++)
        {
            ContinueRecord contrec   = new ContinueRecord();
            int            arraysize = Math.min((8214 - 4),
                                                (data.length - offset));
            byte[]         crdata    = new byte[ arraysize ];
            System.arraycopy(data, offset, crdata, 0, arraysize);
            // System.out.println("arraycopy(data,"+offset+",crdata,"+0+","+arraysize+");");
            offset += crdata.length;
            contrec.setData(crdata);
            crs.add(contrec.serialize());
        }

        {
            totalsize += (( byte [] ) crs.get(cr)).length;
        }
        // System.out.println("totalsize="+totalsize);
        retval = new byte[ totalsize ];
        offset = 8214;
        System.arraycopy(data, 0, retval, 0, 8214);
        for (int cr = 0; cr <  records; cr++)
        {
            byte[] src = ( byte [] ) crs.get(cr);
            System.arraycopy(src, 0, retval, offset, src.length);
            // System.out.println("arraycopy(src,"+0+",retval,"+offset+","+src.length+");");
            offset += src.length;
        }
        return retval;
}

Use to serialize records that are too big for their britches (>8228..why 8228 and not 8192 aka 8k? Those folks in washington don't ususally make sense... or at least to anyone outside fo marketing...

 public byte[] serialize() 
{
        byte[] retval = new byte[ field_1_data.length + 4 ];
        LittleEndian.putShort(retval, 0, sid);
        LittleEndian.putShort(retval, 2, ( short ) field_1_data.length);
        System.arraycopy(field_1_data, 0, retval, 4, field_1_data.length);
        return retval;
}

USE ONLY within "processContinue"

 public  void setData(byte[] data) 
{
        field_1_data = data;
}

set the data for continuation

 public String toString() 
{
        StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
        buffer.append("[CONTINUE RECORD]\n");
        buffer.append("    .id        = ").append(Integer.toHexString(sid))
            .append("\n");
        buffer.append("[/CONTINUE RECORD]\n");
        return buffer.toString();
}

Debugging toString

 protected  void validateSid(short id) 
{
        if (id != ContinueRecord.sid)
        {
            throw new RecordFormatException("Not a Continue Record");
        }
}

Make sure we have a good id
