Class Value

java.lang.Object
org.apache.accumulo.core.data.Value
All Implemented Interfaces:
Comparable<Object>, org.apache.hadoop.io.Writable, org.apache.hadoop.io.WritableComparable<Object>
public class Value extends Object implements org.apache.hadoop.io.WritableComparable<Object>
A byte sequence that is usable as a key or value. Based on BytesWritable only this class is NOT resizable and DOES NOT distinguish between the size of the sequence and the current capacity as BytesWritable does. Hence it is comparatively 'immutable'.

  • Constructor Details

    • Value

      public Value()
      Creates a zero-size sequence.

    • Value

      public Value(CharSequence cs)
      Creates a value using the UTF-8 encoding of the CharSequence
      Parameters:
      cs - may not be null
      Since:
      1.8.0

    • Value

      public Value(org.apache.hadoop.io.Text text)
      Creates a Value using the bytes of the Text. Makes a copy, does not use the byte array from the Text.
      Parameters:
      text - may not be null
      Since:
      1.8.0

    • Value

      public Value(byte[] bytes)
      Creates a Value using a byte array as the initial value. The given byte array is used directly as the backing array, so later changes made to the array reflect into the new Value.
      Parameters:
      bytes - May not be null

    • Value

      public Value(ByteBuffer bytes)
      Creates a Value using the bytes in a buffer as the initial value. Makes a defensive copy.
      Parameters:
      bytes - May not be null

    • Value

      @Deprecated public Value(ByteBuffer bytes, boolean copy)
      Deprecated.
      A copy of the bytes in the buffer is always made. Use Value(ByteBuffer) instead.
      Parameters:
      bytes - bytes of value (may not be null)
      copy - false to use the backing array of the buffer directly as the backing array, true to force a copy

    • Value

      public Value(byte[] bytes, boolean copy)
      Creates a Value using a byte array as the initial value.
      Parameters:
      bytes - may not be null
      copy - false to use the given byte array directly as the backing array, true to force a copy

    • Value

      public Value(Value ibw)
      Creates a new Value based on another.
      Parameters:
      ibw - may not be null.

    • Value

      public Value(byte[] newData, int offset, int length)
      Creates a Value based on a range in a byte array. A copy of the bytes is always made.
      Parameters:
      newData - source of copy, may not be null
      offset - the offset in newData to start with for valye bytes
      length - the number of bytes in the value
      Throws:
      IndexOutOfBoundsException - if offset or length are invalid

  • Method Details

    • get

      public byte[] get()
      Gets the byte data of this value.
      Returns:
      the underlying byte array directly.

    • set

      public void set(byte[] b)
      Sets the byte data of this value. The given byte array is used directly as the backing array, so later changes made to the array reflect into this Value.
      Parameters:
      b - may not be null

    • copy

      public void copy(byte[] b)
      Sets the byte data of this value. The given byte array is copied.
