decodeText abstract method

void decodeText(
  1. String source
)

Decodes text from source as content objects.

The source text is expected to be a valid string representation of content for a text format decoder and and a base64 string representation of content for a binary format decoder.

The target of objects decoded from text is not defined by this interface. A decoder could produce content objects sent to a content interface or build structured data objects with compatible model. Also some decoders might allow multiple calls to this method to build a larger target object structure.

Throws FormatException if decoding fails.

Implementation

void decodeText(String source);
