public class InterpretAsReadableFileStrategy
extends AbstractReadableFileArgumentInterpretationStrategy<ReadableFile>

This strategy is used to interpret objects into read only ReadableFile:s. It is documented in the |ai:ai_readable_file:User's Guide|.

For most cases, the constants AS_SINGLE and AS_SEVERAL can be used instead of creating a new object.
