Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

Description copied from interface: HGIndexer

Declared to enforce implementation.

Specified by:

equals in interface HGIndexer<byte[],HGPersistentHandle>

Overrides:

equals in class Object

getComparator

public Comparator<byte[]> getComparator(HyperGraph graph)

Description copied from interface: HGIndexer

Return a comparator used to compare key values return by this indexer. Note that the comparator's compare method will be invoked with byte[] parameters. It is the comparator's responsibility to convert them to the appropriate run-time type for performing the comparison if need be.

The method may return null if a default byte-by-byte comparator is to be used.

Parameters:

graph - The current HyperGraph instance.

Returns:

A comparator used to compare key values return by this indexer or null to use a default byte-by-byte comparison of keys.

getConverter

public ByteArrayConverter<byte[]> getConverter(HyperGraph graph)

Description copied from interface: HGIndexer

Return a ByteArrayConverter capable of translating keys returned by this indexer to/from a byte[].

Parameters:

graph - The current HyperGraph instance.

Returns:

The ByteArrayConverter for type of index keys return by this indexer or null if keys are of type byte[].

getKey

public byte[] getKey(HyperGraph graph,
            Object atom)

Description copied from class: HGKeyIndexer

Returns an index key for the given atom.

Specified by:

getKey in class HGKeyIndexer<byte[]>

Parameters:

graph - The current HyperGraph instance.

atom - The atom being indexed.

Returns:

The index key. If the return value is not a byte[], a non-null ByteArrayConverter must be provided by the getConverter method.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Description copied from interface: HGIndexer

Declared to enforce implementation.

Specified by:

hashCode in interface HGIndexer<byte[],HGPersistentHandle>

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

getIndexerParts

public HGKeyIndexer<Object>[] getIndexerParts()

setIndexerParts

public void setIndexerParts(HGKeyIndexer<Object>[] indexerParts)
