main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)
                 throws java.lang.Exception

This is the MAIN method of the MyTrendTimer Class. This class (especially the main method) should act as a controler for the other classes.

Used to regenerate :

grep BIGSTEP MyTrendTimer.java | sed 's/* BIGSTEP : /\<\l\i\>/'

The BIGSTEPS are :

• Do the basic arg check and some initialisation
• Parse the xml config file, based on the ID retreived in quote source file
• Check the xml config file content (datatypes etc...) and extract values
• Instanciate some technical objects (XML config is needed at this stage)
• Overwrite the defaults arg in XML Config File if command line args provided.
• Init the output CSV file and create its first line (csvoutputgeneration)
• Init the xml output file and write some info found in config file (instrument related)
• Call the Model calculation
• Call the XML to HTML Transformation
• Generate the JFreeChart image
