java.lang.Object
  net.sf.dewdrop.util.CountryIsoCodeReader

public class CountryIsoCodeReader

extends Object

Very simple, hard-coded utility class that visits the ISO 3166 web site, pulls the list of the countries and their corresponding 2-letter code, and generates sql to insert these pairs into a database. This class must change if the URL changes, or if the file format changes, otherwise it will break.
