Class AbcFileParser

java.lang.Object
  abc.parser.AbcParserAbstract
      abc.parser.AbcFileParser

Direct Known Subclasses:

AbcHeadersParser

public class AbcFileParser
extends AbcParserAbstract

This class provides instances to parse files and streams using abc notation. Parser instances from this class will parse the whole content of the input files / streams (headers + music). If you are only interested in getting tune headers, you'd better use the AbcHeadersParser that will restrict the parsing to abc headers. Such parsing is faster than parsing the whole content of the file (about 10x from what I've been able to measure...).
