Doc from org.jabref.logic.importer.Importer.importDatabase.

Parse the database in the source.

This method can be called in two different contexts - either when importing in a specified format, or when importing in unknown format. In the latter case, JabRef cycles through all available import formats. No error messages or feedback is displayed from individual import formats in this case.

If importing in a specified format and an empty library is returned, JabRef reports that no entries were found.

This method should never return null.

Parameters

reader:BufferedReader

the input to read from

@Override

Implements abstract org.jabref.logic.importer.Importer.isRecognizedFormat.

Doc from org.jabref.logic.importer.Importer.isRecognizedFormat.

Check whether the source is in the correct format for this importer.

The effect of this method is primarily to avoid unnecessary processing of files when searching for a suitable import format. If this method returns false, the import routine will move on to the next import format.

Thus, the correct behaviour is to return false if it is certain that the file is not of the suitable type, and true otherwise. Returning true is the safe choice if not certain.
