Class FloatSerializer

java.lang.Object
  org.helidb.lang.serializer.FloatSerializer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializer<Float>

public class FloatSerializer
extends Object
implements Serializer<Float>

A Serializer for Float values. Float values are serialized to four bytes long byte arrays.

This object uses Float.floatToRawIntBits(float) to encode float values. That method creates special codes for the special values Float.NaN, Float.POSITIVE_INFINITY and Float.NEGATIVE_INFINITY, and they are preserved by this object's serialization and interpretation.

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

Float	interpret(byte[] barr, int offset, int length) Interpret the data in the byte array to an object of the type handled by the Serializer implementation.
boolean	isNullValuesPermitted() Does this serializer permit null values?
Float	read(InputStream is, int dataSize) Read a value from the InputStream.
Float	read(RandomAccess ra, int dataSize) Read a value from the RandomAccess' current position.

Method Detail

interpret

public Float 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<Float>

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 Float 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<Float>

Parameters:

barr - The byte array containing the data.

Returns:

The interpreted object.

See Also:

Serializer.interpret(byte[], int, int)

serialize

public int serialize(Float value,
                     byte[] barr,
                     int offset)

Description copied from interface: Serializer

Serialize the supplied object into the byte array.

Specified by:

serialize in interface Serializer<Float>

Parameters:

value - The object to serialize.

barr - 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(Float value)

Description copied from interface: Serializer

Serialize the supplied object into a new byte array.

Specified by:

serialize in interface Serializer<Float>

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<Float>

Returns:

4, always.

isNullValuesPermitted

public boolean isNullValuesPermitted()

Description copied from interface: Serializer

Does this serializer permit null values?

Specified by:

isNullValuesPermitted in interface Serializer<Float>

Returns:

false, always.

readFloat

public Float readFloat(RandomAccess ra)
                throws NotEnoughDataException,
                       WrappedIOException

Read a Float value from the current position of the RandomAccess.

Parameters:

ra - The RandomAccess to read from. The current position of this is incremented by 4 bytes.

Returns:

The Float value.

Throws:

NotEnoughDataException - If 4 bytes cannot be read.

WrappedIOException - On I/O errors.

readFloat

public Float readFloat(InputStream is)
                throws NotEnoughDataException,
                       WrappedIOException

Read a Float value from the current position of the InputStream.

Parameters:

is - The InputStream to read from. The current position of the stream is incremented by 4 bytes.

Returns:

The Float value.

Throws:

NotEnoughDataException - If 4 bytes cannot be read.

WrappedIOException - If an IOException is encountered while reading data.

read

public Float 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<Float>

Parameters:

ra - The RandomAccess to read from.

dataSize - The size of the value.

Returns:

The value.

read

public Float read(InputStream is,
                  int dataSize)

Description copied from interface: Serializer

Read a value from the InputStream.

Specified by:

read in interface Serializer<Float>

Parameters:

is - The InputStream to read from.

dataSize - The size of the value.

Returns:

The value.
