Semantic File Inspector Application
This is the primary project to use when wishing to run the Semantic File Inspector as an embedded component.
The project contains a hierarchy of classes derived from Inspector, capable
of easily setting up the process of file format inspection. This class is inherited
by ComponentInspector, which is capable of storing configurable collections of
components, and itself inherited by ExtensibleInspector, adding
support for plugins.
When intending to use one of these classes, the user should derive from the one
of them covering the user's needs, adding the desired components (such as by
calling the ComponentInspector.LoadAssembly method), and either use
the inspector by calling methods on the instance, or through the Application
class which can be controlled using command-line arguments (see
SFI.ConsoleApp
for an example how to set up the environment).
Documentation for the command-line API, configuration, and plugin mechanism, can be found in the wiki.
