Class ShortToShortHasher

java.lang.Object
  org.helidb.lang.hasher.ShortToShortHasher

All Implemented Interfaces:

Hasher<Short,Short>

public class ShortToShortHasher
extends Object
implements Hasher<Short,Short>

This is a value-preserving Short hasher. It does not support null values.

Hashes have a length of two bytes.

Since this object does not contain any internal state, the singleton instance INSTANCE may be used instead of instantiating the class.

Since:

1.0

Field Summary

static ShortToShortHasher

INSTANCE The singleton instance.

Constructor Summary

Method Summary

Short	fromBytes(byte[] barr) Interpret the serialized hash value.
int	getHashLength() Get the size of the hash in bytes.
Short	hash(Short s) Hash the supplied value.
boolean	isPreservingValues() Does the hashing operation not modify the hashed value at all? This is true if v.equals(hasher.hash(v)) for all values v accepted by the hasher.
byte[]	toBytes(Short s) Serialize the hash to a byte array.

Field Detail

INSTANCE

public static final ShortToShortHasher INSTANCE

The singleton instance. This may be used instead of instantiating the object.

ShortToShortHasher

public ShortToShortHasher()

Method Detail

getHashLength

public int getHashLength()

Description copied from interface: Hasher

Get the size of the hash in bytes. This is the size of the byte array created by Hasher.toBytes(Comparable) and accepted by Hasher.fromBytes(byte[]).

Specified by:

getHashLength in interface Hasher<Short,Short>

Returns:

The size of the hash, in number of bytes.

toBytes

public byte[] toBytes(Short s)

Description copied from interface: Hasher

Serialize the hash to a byte array.

For a given Hasher object, the byte arrays returned by this method must always be of the same size.

Specified by:

toBytes in interface Hasher<Short,Short>

Parameters:

s - The hash to serialize.

Returns:

The serialized hash.

fromBytes

public Short fromBytes(byte[] barr)

Description copied from interface: Hasher

Interpret the serialized hash value.

Specified by:

fromBytes in interface Hasher<Short,Short>

Parameters:

barr - The serialized hash value.

Returns:

The hash value.

hash

public Short hash(Short s)

Description copied from interface: Hasher

Hash the supplied value.

Hashing may be a fairly expensive operation, depending on the implementation. Clients should try to reuse the result from this method as much as possible.

Specified by:

hash in interface Hasher<Short,Short>

Parameters:

s - The value to hash.

Returns:

The hash value.

isPreservingValues

public boolean isPreservingValues()

Description copied from interface: Hasher

Does the hashing operation not modify the hashed value at all? This is true if v.equals(hasher.hash(v)) for all values v accepted by the hasher.

Specified by:

isPreservingValues in interface Hasher<Short,Short>

Returns:

true, always.
