Method Detail

hash

public int hash(LongValueArray record)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Computes a hash value for the given record. The hash value should include all fields in the record relevant to the comparison.

The hash code is typically not used as it is in hash tables and for partitioning, but it is further scrambled to make sure that a projection of the hash values to a lower cardinality space is as results in a rather uniform value distribution. However, any collisions produced by this method cannot be undone. While it is NOT important to create hash codes that cover the full spectrum of bits in the integer, it IS important to avoid collisions when combining two value as much as possible.

Specified by:

hash in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

record - The record to be hashed.

Returns:

A hash value for the record.

Object.hashCode()

setReference

public void setReference(LongValueArray toCompare)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Sets the given element as the comparison reference for future calls to TypeComparator.equalToReference(Object) and TypeComparator.compareToReference(TypeComparator). This method must set the given element into this comparator instance's state. If the comparison happens on a subset of the fields from the record, this method may extract those fields.

A typical example for checking the equality of two elements is the following:

 E e1 = ...;
 E e2 = ...;

 TypeComparator<E> acc = ...;

 acc.setReference(e1);
 boolean equal = acc.equalToReference(e2);
 

The rational behind this method is that elements are typically compared using certain features that are extracted from them, (such de-serializing as a subset of fields). When setting the reference, this extraction happens. The extraction needs happen only once per element, even though an element is often compared to multiple other elements, such as when finding equal elements in the process of grouping the elements.

Specified by:

setReference in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

toCompare - The element to set as the comparison reference.

equalToReference

public boolean equalToReference(LongValueArray candidate)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Checks, whether the given element is equal to the element that has been set as the comparison reference in this comparator instance.

Specified by:

equalToReference in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

candidate - The candidate to check.

Returns:

True, if the element is equal to the comparison reference, false otherwise.

TypeComparator.setReference(Object)

compareToReference

public int compareToReference(TypeComparator<LongValueArray> referencedComparator)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

This method compares the element that has been set as reference in this type accessor, to the element set as reference in the given type accessor. Similar to comparing two elements e1 and e2 via a comparator, this method can be used the following way.

 E e1 = ...;
 E e2 = ...;

 TypeComparator<E> acc1 = ...;
 TypeComparator<E> acc2 = ...;

 acc1.setReference(e1);
 acc2.setReference(e2);

 int comp = acc1.compareToReference(acc2);
 

The rational behind this method is that elements are typically compared using certain features that are extracted from them, (such de-serializing as a subset of fields). When setting the reference, this extraction happens. The extraction needs happen only once per element, even though an element is typically compared to many other elements when establishing a sorted order. The actual comparison performed by this method may be very cheap, as it happens on the extracted features.

Specified by:

compareToReference in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

referencedComparator - The type accessors where the element for comparison has been set as reference.

Returns:

A value smaller than zero, if the reference value of referencedAccessors is smaller than the reference value of this type accessor; a value greater than zero, if it is larger; zero, if both are equal.

compare

public int compare(LongValueArray first,
                   LongValueArray second)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Compares two records in object form. The return value indicates the order of the two in the same way as defined by Comparator.compare(Object, Object).

Specified by:

compare in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

first - The first record.

second - The second record.

Returns:

An integer defining the oder among the objects in the same way as Comparator.compare(Object, Object).

See Also:

Comparator.compare(Object, Object)

compareSerialized

public int compareSerialized(DataInputView firstSource,
                             DataInputView secondSource)
                      throws IOException

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Compares two records in serialized form. The return value indicates the order of the two in the same way as defined by Comparator.compare(Object, Object).

This method may de-serialize the records or compare them directly based on their binary representation.

Specified by:

compareSerialized in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

firstSource - The input view containing the first record.

secondSource - The input view containing the second record.

Returns:

An integer defining the oder among the objects in the same way as Comparator.compare(Object, Object).

Throws:

IOException - Thrown, if any of the input views raised an exception when reading the records.

See Also:

Comparator.compare(Object, Object)

supportsNormalizedKey

public boolean supportsNormalizedKey()

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Checks whether the data type supports the creation of a normalized key for comparison.

Specified by:

supportsNormalizedKey in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Returns:

True, if the data type supports the creation of a normalized key for comparison, false otherwise.

getNormalizeKeyLen

public int getNormalizeKeyLen()

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Gets the number of bytes that the normalized key would maximally take. A value of Integer.MAX_VALUE is interpreted as infinite.

Specified by:

getNormalizeKeyLen in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Returns:

The number of bytes that the normalized key would maximally take.

isNormalizedKeyPrefixOnly

public boolean isNormalizedKeyPrefixOnly(int keyBytes)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Checks, whether the given number of bytes for a normalized is only a prefix to determine the order of elements of the data type for which this comparator provides the comparison methods. For example, if the data type is ordered with respect to an integer value it contains, then this method would return true, if the number of key bytes is smaller than four.

Specified by:

isNormalizedKeyPrefixOnly in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Returns:

True, if the given number of bytes is only a prefix, false otherwise.

putNormalizedKey

public void putNormalizedKey(LongValueArray record,
                             MemorySegment target,
                             int offset,
                             int numBytes)

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Writes a normalized key for the given record into the target byte array, starting at the specified position and writing exactly the given number of bytes. Note that the comparison of the bytes is treating the bytes as unsigned bytes: int byteI = bytes[i] & 0xFF;

If the meaningful part of the normalized key takes less than the given number of bytes, then it must be padded. Padding is typically required for variable length data types, such as strings. The padding uses a special character, either 0 or 0xff, depending on whether shorter values are sorted to the beginning or the end.

This method is similar to NormalizableKey.copyNormalizedKey(MemorySegment, int, int). In the case that multiple fields of a record contribute to the normalized key, it is crucial that the fields align on the byte field, i.e. that every field always takes up the exact same number of bytes.

Specified by:

putNormalizedKey in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Parameters:

record - The record for which to create the normalized key.

target - The byte array into which to write the normalized key bytes.

offset - The offset in the byte array, where to start writing the normalized key bytes.

numBytes - The number of bytes to be written exactly.

See Also:

NormalizableKey.copyNormalizedKey(MemorySegment, int, int)

invertNormalizedKey

public boolean invertNormalizedKey()

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Flag whether normalized key comparisons should be inverted key should be interpreted inverted, i.e. descending.

Specified by:

invertNormalizedKey in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Returns:

True, if all normalized key comparisons should invert the sign of the comparison result, false if the normalized key should be used as is.

duplicate

public TypeComparator<LongValueArray> duplicate()

Description copied from class: TypeComparator

Creates a copy of this class. The copy must be deep such that no state set in the copy affects this instance of the comparator class.

Specified by:

duplicate in class TypeComparator<LongValueArray>

Returns:

A deep copy of this comparator instance.

extractKeys

public int extractKeys(Object record,
                       Object[] target,
                       int index)

Parameters:

record - The record that contains the key(s)

target - The array to write the key(s) into.

index - The offset of the target array to start writing into.

the number of keys added to target.

getFlatComparators

public TypeComparator<?>[] getFlatComparators()

Description copied from class: TypeComparator
