public ArrayOfItemsSerDe()

Method Detail

serializeToByteArray

public abstract byte[] serializeToByteArray(T item)

Serialize a single unserialized item to a byte array.

Parameters:

item - the item to be serialized

Returns:

serialized representation of the given item

serializeToByteArray

public abstract byte[] serializeToByteArray(T[] items)

Serialize an array of unserialized items to a byte array of contiguous serialized items.

Parameters:

items - array of items to be serialized

Returns:

contiguous, serialized representation of the given array of unserialized items

deserializeFromMemory

@Deprecated
public abstract T[] deserializeFromMemory(org.apache.datasketches.memory.Memory mem,
                                          int numItems)

Deprecated.

use deserializeFromMemory(mem, offset, numItems)

Deserialize a contiguous sequence of serialized items from a given Memory.

Parameters:

mem - Memory containing a contiguous sequence of serialized items

numItems - number of items in the contiguous serialized sequence.

Returns:

array of deserialized items

deserializeFromMemory

public abstract T[] deserializeFromMemory(org.apache.datasketches.memory.Memory mem,
                                          long offsetBytes,
                                          int numItems)

Deserialize a contiguous sequence of serialized items from a given Memory.

Parameters:

mem - Memory containing a contiguous sequence of serialized items

offsetBytes - the starting offset in the given Memory.

numItems - number of items in the contiguous serialized sequence.

Returns:

array of deserialized items

sizeOf

public abstract int sizeOf(T item)

Returns the serialized size in bytes of a single unserialized item.

Parameters:

item - a specific item

Returns:

the serialized size in bytes of a single unserialized item.

sizeOf

public int sizeOf(T[] items)

Returns the serialized size in bytes of the array of items.

Parameters:

items - an array of items.

Returns:

the serialized size in bytes of the array of items.

sizeOf

public abstract int sizeOf(org.apache.datasketches.memory.Memory mem,
                           long offsetBytes,
                           int numItems)

Returns the serialized size in bytes of the number of contiguous serialized items in Memory. The capacity of the given Memory can be much larger that the required size of the items.

Parameters:

mem - the given Memory.

offsetBytes - the starting offset in the given Memory.

numItems - the number of serialized items contained in the Memory

Returns:

the serialized size in bytes of the given number of items.

toString

public abstract String toString(T item)

Returns a human readable string of an item.

Parameters:

item - a specific item

Returns:

a human readable string of an item.

getClassOfT

public abstract Class<?> getClassOfT()

Returns the concrete class of type T

Returns:

the concrete class of type T
