Method Details
- getName
  
  java.lang.String getName()
- getExtensions
  
  java.lang.String[] getExtensions()
  
  Get the possible extensions this importer/exporter can read (e.g. txt). The extensions do not have to be unique. In case two importers use the same extension, the correct one will be chosen based on the result of PathwayImporter.isCorrectFileType(). If that doesn't help, the user may be asked to pick an importer. The first item in the array is assumed to be the preferred extension.
  
  Returns:
  
  An array with the possible extensions (without '.')
- getWarnings
  
  java.util.List<java.lang.String> getWarnings()
  
  After import or export, this can be used to check if there are any warnings
  
  Returns:
  
  a list of warning messages, or an empty list if there are none.
