All Implemented Interfaces:

TableReader

public class FixedWidthTextTableReader
extends AbstractTextTableReader

TableReader for fixed-width text files, that encode one row of table data per line use a fixed number of characters for each data column. Reading such tables requires use of a schema description that describes the fixed-widths for each individual column. The FixedWidthTextTableSchema class provides this functionality.
