Class ScormVersionDetector

java.lang.Object

dev.jcputney.elearning.parser.util.ScormVersionDetector

public final class ScormVersionDetector
extends Object

Utility class for detecting the version of SCORM modules based on their manifest files.

This class examines the imsmanifest.xml file of a SCORM module to determine whether it's a SCORM 1.2 or SCORM 2004 module. The detection is based on:

• The schema and schemaversion elements in the manifest
• The presence of SCORM 2004-specific namespaces

If the version can't be determined with certainty, the class defaults to SCORM 1.2.

Detects the version of a SCORM module based on its manifest file.

This method examines the imsmanifest.xml file to determine whether the module is SCORM 1.2 or SCORM 2004. It first checks the schema and schemaversion elements, and if those are inconclusive, it looks for SCORM 2004-specific namespaces.

Parameters:

fileAccess - the FileAccess implementation to use for accessing the manifest file

Returns:

the detected SCORM version as a ModuleType (SCORM_12 or SCORM_2004)

Throws:

ParserConfigurationException - if a DocumentBuilder can't be created

IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading the manifest file

SAXException - if a parsing error occurs while reading the manifest file
