Class ByteSerializer

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.helidb.lang.serializer.ByteSerializer
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializer<Byte>

public class ByteSerializer
extends Object
implements Serializer<Byte>

A Serializer for Byte values. Every Byte value serialized by this object is represented as a byte array of length one.

This serializer does not handle null values.

The singleton instance INSTANCE may be used instead of creating a new object of this class.

Since:
1.0

Method Detail

interpret

public Byte interpret(byte[] barr,
                      int offset,
                      int length)
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Interpret the data in the byte array to an object of the type handled by the Serializer implementation.

Specified by:
interpret in interface Serializer<Byte>
Parameters:
barr - The byte array containing the data.
offset - The start position of the data.
length - The length of the data.
Returns:
The interpreted object.
See Also:
Serializer.interpret(byte[])

interpret

public Byte interpret(byte[] barr)
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Interpret the data in the byte array to an object of the type handled by the Serializer implementation.

Specified by:
interpret in interface Serializer<Byte>
Parameters:
barr - The byte array containing the data.
Returns:
The interpreted object.
See Also:
Serializer.interpret(byte[], int, int)

serialize

public int serialize(Byte value,
                     byte[] arr,
                     int offset)
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Serialize the supplied object into the byte array.

Specified by:
serialize in interface Serializer<Byte>
Parameters:
value - The object to serialize.
arr - The byte array to serialize it to.
offset - The start position to write data at in the byte array.
Returns:
The number of bytes written to the array.

serialize

public byte[] serialize(Byte value)
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Serialize the supplied object into a new byte array.

Specified by:
serialize in interface Serializer<Byte>
Parameters:
value - The object to serialize.
Returns:
The object serialized into a byte array.

getSerializedSize

public int getSerializedSize()
Description copied from interface: Serializer
If the serialized data produced by this serializer always is of the same size, return that size (in number of bytes). Otherwise -1 is returned.

Specified by:
getSerializedSize in interface Serializer<Byte>
Returns:
1, always.

isNullValuesPermitted

public boolean isNullValuesPermitted()
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Does this serializer permit null values?

Specified by:
isNullValuesPermitted in interface Serializer<Byte>
Returns:
false, always.

readByte

public Byte readByte(RandomAccess ra)
              throws NotEnoughDataException,
                     WrappedIOException
Read a Byte value from the current position of the RandomAccess.

Parameters:
ra - The RandomAccess to read from. The current position of this is incremented by 1 bytes.
Returns:
The Byte value.
Throws:
DatabaseException - If 1 bytes cannot be read.
WrappedIOException - On I/O errors.
NotEnoughDataException

readByte

public Byte readByte(InputStream is)
              throws NotEnoughDataException,
                     WrappedIOException
Read a Byte value from the current position of the InputStream.

Parameters:
is - The InputStream to read from. The current position of the stream is incremented by 1 bytes.
Returns:
The Byte value.
Throws:
NotEnoughDataException - If 1 bytes cannot be read.
WrappedIOException - If an IOException is encountered while reading data.

read

public Byte read(RandomAccess ra,
                 int dataSize)
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Read a value from the RandomAccess' current position. The position in the RandomAccess is incremented by size bytes.

Specified by:
read in interface Serializer<Byte>
Parameters:
ra - The RandomAccess to read from.
dataSize - The size of the value.
Returns:
The value.

read

public Byte read(InputStream is,
                 int dataSize)
Description copied from interface: Serializer
Read a value from the InputStream.

Specified by:
read in interface Serializer<Byte>
Parameters:
is - The InputStream to read from.
dataSize - The size of the value.
Returns:
The value.
