T - The type of objects coded by this Coder.IntermediateT - The type of objects a T will be converted to for coding.public final class DelegateCoder<T,IntermediateT> extends CustomCoder<T>
DelegateCoder<T, IntermediateT> wraps a Coder for IntermediateT and
 encodes/decodes values of type T by converting to/from IntermediateT and then
 encoding/decoding using the underlying Coder<IntermediateT>.
 The conversions from T to IntermediateT and vice versa must be supplied as
 DelegateCoder.CodingFunction, a serializable function that may throw any Exception. If a thrown
 exception is an instance of CoderException or IOException, it will be re-thrown,
 otherwise it will be wrapped as a CoderException.

public void encode(T value, java.io.OutputStream outStream) throws CoderException, java.io.IOException
CoderT onto the given output stream. Multiple elements can
 be encoded next to each other on the output stream, each coder should encode information to
 know how many bytes to read when decoding. A common approach is to prefix the encoding with the
 element's encoded length.encode in class Coder<T>CoderException - if the value could not be encoded for some reasonjava.io.IOException - if writing to the OutputStream fails for some reasonpublic void encode(T value, java.io.OutputStream outStream, Coder.Context context) throws CoderException, java.io.IOException

DelegateCoder.public void verifyDeterministic()
                         throws Coder.NonDeterministicException
Coder.NonDeterministicException if the coding is not deterministic.
 In order for a Coder to be considered deterministic, the following must be true:
 
Object.equals() or Comparable.compareTo(), if supported) have the same encoding.
   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.
 verifyDeterministic in class CustomCoder<T>NonDeterministicException - when the underlying coder's verifyDeterministic()
     throws a Coder.NonDeterministicException. For this to be safe, the intermediate
     CodingFunction<T, IntermediateT> must also be deterministic.Coder.NonDeterministicException - if this coder is not deterministic.public java.lang.Object structuralValue(T value)
Object.equals() method that represents structural equality on
 the argument.
 For any two values x and y of type T, if their encoded bytes are the
 same, then it must be the case that structuralValue(x).equals(structuralValue(y)).
 
Most notably:
null should be a proper object with an
       equals() method, even if the input value is null.
 See also Coder.consistentWithEquals().
 
By default, if this coder is Coder.consistentWithEquals(), and the value is not null,
 returns the provided object. Otherwise, encodes the value into a byte[], and returns an
 object that performs array equality on the encoded bytes.
