Constructor Detail

InKeySetFilter

public InKeySetFilter()

Default constructor (necessary for the ExternalizableLite interface).

InKeySetFilter

public InKeySetFilter(Filter filter,
                      Set setKeys)

Construct an InFilter for testing "In" condition.

Parameters:

filter - the underlying filter

setKeys - the set of keys to limit the filter evaluation to

Method Detail

evaluate

public boolean evaluate(Object o)

Apply the test to the object.

Specified by:

evaluate in interface Filter

Returns:

true if the test passes, false otherwise

evaluateEntry

public boolean evaluateEntry(Map.Entry entry)

Apply the test to a Map Entry.

Specified by:

evaluateEntry in interface EntryFilter

Parameters:

entry - the Map Entry to evaluate; never null

Returns:

true if the test passes, false otherwise

calculateEffectiveness

public int calculateEffectiveness(Map mapIndexes,
                                  Set setKeys)

Given a Map of available indexes, determine if this IndexAwareFilter can use any of the indexes to assist in its processing, and if so, determine how effective the use of that index would be.

The returned value is an effectiveness estimate of how well this filter can use the specified indexes to filter the specified keys. An operation that requires no more than a single access to the index content (i.e. Equals, NotEquals) has an effectiveness of one. Evaluation of a single entry is assumed to have an effectiveness that depends on the index implementation and is usually measured as a constant number of the single operations. This number is referred to as evaluation cost.

If the effectiveness of a filter evaluates to a number larger than the keySet.size() * <evaluation cost> then a user could avoid using the index and iterate through the keySet calling evaluate rather then applyIndex.

Specified by:

calculateEffectiveness in interface IndexAwareFilter

Parameters:

mapIndexes - the available MapIndex objects keyed by the related ValueExtractor; read-only

setKeys - the set of keys that will be filtered; read-only

Returns:

a effectiveness estimate of how well this filter can use the specified indexes to filter the specified keys

applyIndex

public Filter applyIndex(Map mapIndexes,
                         Set setKeys)

Filter remaining keys using a Map of available indexes.

The filter is responsible for removing all keys from the passed set of keys that the applicable indexes can prove should be filtered. If the filter does not fully evaluate the remaining keys using just the index information, it must return a filter (which may be an EntryFilter) that can complete the task using an iterating implementation. If, on the other hand, the filter does fully evaluate the remaining keys using just the index information, then it should return null to indicate that no further filtering is necessary.

Specified by:

applyIndex in interface IndexAwareFilter

Parameters:

mapIndexes - the available MapIndex objects keyed by the related ValueExtractor; read-only

setKeys - the mutable set of keys that remain to be filtered

Returns:

a Filter object (which may be an EntryFilter) that can be used to process the remaining keys, or null if no additional filter processing is necessary

getFilter

public Filter getFilter()

Obtain the underying Filter.

Returns:

the underlying filter

ensureConverted

public void ensureConverted(Converter converter)

Ensure that the underlying keys are converted using the specified converter.

This method is intended to be used exclusively by the partitioned cache service in a scenario when cache keys to evaluate by this filter exist in internal form.

Parameters:

converter - the converter that should be used for key conversions

toString

public String toString()

Return a human-readable description for this Filter.

Returns:

a String description of the Filter

readExternal

public void readExternal(DataInput in)
                  throws IOException

Restore the contents of this object by loading the object's state from the passed DataInput object.

Specified by:

readExternal in interface ExternalizableLite

Parameters:

in - the DataInput stream to read data from in order to restore the state of this object

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O exception occurs

NotActiveException - if the object is not in its initial state, and therefore cannot be deserialized into

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(DataOutput out)
                   throws IOException

Save the contents of this object by storing the object's state into the passed DataOutput object.

Specified by:

writeExternal in interface ExternalizableLite

Parameters:

out - the DataOutput stream to write the state of this object to

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O exception occurs

readExternal

public void readExternal(PofReader in)
                  throws IOException

Restore the contents of a user type instance by reading its state using the specified PofReader object.

Specified by:

readExternal in interface PortableObject

Parameters:

in - the PofReader from which to read the object's state

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(PofWriter out)
                   throws IOException

Save the contents of a POF user type instance by writing its state using the specified PofWriter object.

Specified by:

writeExternal in interface PortableObject

Parameters:

out - the PofWriter to which to write the object's state

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs
