All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class VarLongCoder
extends StructuredCoder<java.lang.Long>

A Coder that encodes Longs using between 1 and 10 bytes. Negative numbers always take 10 bytes, so BigEndianLongCoder may be preferable for longs that are known to often be large or negative.

void	encode(java.lang.Long value, java.io.OutputStream outStream) Encodes the given value of type T onto the given output stream.
java.util.List<? extends Coder<?>>	getCoderArguments() If this is a Coder for a parameterized type, returns the list of Coders being used for each of the parameters in the same order they appear within the parameterized type's type signature.
protected long	getEncodedElementByteSize(java.lang.Long value) Returns the size in bytes of the encoded value using this coder.
TypeDescriptor<java.lang.Long>	getEncodedTypeDescriptor() Returns the TypeDescriptor for the type encoded.
boolean	isRegisterByteSizeObserverCheap(java.lang.Long value) Returns whether Coder.registerByteSizeObserver(T, org.apache.beam.sdk.util.common.ElementByteSizeObserver) cheap enough to call for every element, that is, if this Coder can calculate the byte size of the element to be coded in roughly constant time (or lazily).

Method Detail

of

public static VarLongCoder of()

encode

public void encode(java.lang.Long value,
                   java.io.OutputStream outStream)
            throws java.io.IOException,
                   CoderException

Description copied from class: Coder

Encodes the given value of type T onto the given output stream.

Specified by:

encode in class Coder<java.lang.Long>

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if writing to the OutputStream fails for some reason

CoderException - if the value could not be encoded for some reason

decode

public java.lang.Long decode(java.io.InputStream inStream)
                      throws java.io.IOException,
                             CoderException

Description copied from class: Coder

Decodes a value of type T from the given input stream in the given context. Returns the decoded value.

Specified by:

decode in class Coder<java.lang.Long>

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if reading from the InputStream fails for some reason

CoderException - if the value could not be decoded for some reason

getCoderArguments

public java.util.List<? extends Coder<?>> getCoderArguments()

Description copied from class: Coder

If this is a Coder for a parameterized type, returns the list of Coders being used for each of the parameters in the same order they appear within the parameterized type's type signature. If this cannot be done, or this Coder does not encode/decode a parameterized type, returns the empty list.

Specified by:

getCoderArguments in class Coder<java.lang.Long>

verifyDeterministic

public void verifyDeterministic()

Description copied from class: Coder

Throw Coder.NonDeterministicException if the coding is not deterministic.

In order for a Coder to be considered deterministic, the following must be true:

• two values that compare as equal (via Object.equals() or Comparable.compareTo(), if supported) have the same encoding.
• the Coder always produces a canonical encoding, which is the same for an instance of an object even if produced on different computers at different times.

Specified by:

verifyDeterministic in class Coder<java.lang.Long>

consistentWithEquals

public boolean consistentWithEquals()

Returns true if this Coder is injective with respect to Object.equals(java.lang.Object).

Whenever the encoded bytes of two values are equal, then the original values are equal according to Objects.equals(). Note that this is well-defined for null.

This condition is most notably false for arrays. More generally, this condition is false whenever equals() compares object identity, rather than performing a semantic/structural comparison.

By default, returns false.

Overrides:

consistentWithEquals in class StructuredCoder<java.lang.Long>

Returns:

true. VarLongCoder is injective.

isRegisterByteSizeObserverCheap

public boolean isRegisterByteSizeObserverCheap(java.lang.Long value)

Returns whether Coder.registerByteSizeObserver(T, org.apache.beam.sdk.util.common.ElementByteSizeObserver) cheap enough to call for every element, that is, if this Coder can calculate the byte size of the element to be coded in roughly constant time (or lazily).

Not intended to be called by user code, but instead by PipelineRunner implementations.

By default, returns false. The default Coder.registerByteSizeObserver(T, org.apache.beam.sdk.util.common.ElementByteSizeObserver) implementation invokes Coder.getEncodedElementByteSize(T) which requires re-encoding an element unless it is overridden. This is considered expensive.

Overrides:

isRegisterByteSizeObserverCheap in class Coder<java.lang.Long>

Returns:

true. getEncodedElementByteSize(java.lang.Long) is cheap.

getEncodedTypeDescriptor

public TypeDescriptor<java.lang.Long> getEncodedTypeDescriptor()

Description copied from class: Coder

Returns the TypeDescriptor for the type encoded.

Overrides:

getEncodedTypeDescriptor in class StructuredCoder<java.lang.Long>

getEncodedElementByteSize

protected long getEncodedElementByteSize(java.lang.Long value)
                                  throws java.lang.Exception

Description copied from class: Coder

Returns the size in bytes of the encoded value using this coder.

Overrides:

getEncodedElementByteSize in class Coder<java.lang.Long>

Throws:

java.lang.Exception
