Field Detail

classId

public static final int classId

Constructor Detail

FieldValue

public FieldValue()

Method Detail

getDataType

public abstract DataType getDataType()

create

public static FieldValue create(FieldReader reader,
                                DataType type)

toXml

public String toXml()

Get XML representation of a single field and all its children, if any.

Returns:

XML representation of field in a <value> element

deserialize

public final void deserialize(FieldReader reader)

Read data from the given buffer to create this field value. As some field values have their type self contained, we need the type manager object to be able to retrieve it.

serialize

public final void serialize(com.yahoo.io.GrowableByteBuffer buf)

printXml

public abstract void printXml(XmlStream xml)

clear

public abstract void clear()

clone

public FieldValue clone()

Overrides:

clone in class com.yahoo.vespa.objects.Identifiable

assign

public abstract void assign(Object o)

Assign this non-fieldvalue value to this field value. This is used to be able to assign ints to Integer field values and List to Array field values and such.

Override to accept the specific types that should be legal.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the object given is of wrong type for this field value.

getWrappedValue

public Object getWrappedValue()

Used to retrieve wrapped type for simple types, such that you can use get methods to retrieve ints and floats directly instead of Int/Float field values. Complex types that can't be specified by simple java types just return themself.

getRecursiveValue

public FieldValue getRecursiveValue(String path)

Using the given field path, digs through the document and returns the matching field value. If the field path resolves to multiple values, returns an ArrayFieldValue containing the values.

getRecursiveValue

public FieldValue getRecursiveValue(FieldPath path)

onSerialize

public void onSerialize(com.yahoo.vespa.objects.Serializer target)

Overrides:

onSerialize in class com.yahoo.vespa.objects.Identifiable

onDeserialize

public void onDeserialize(com.yahoo.vespa.objects.Deserializer data)

Overrides:

onDeserialize in class com.yahoo.vespa.objects.Identifiable

serialize

public abstract void serialize(Field field,
                               FieldWriter writer)

Write out field value to the specified writer

deserialize

public abstract void deserialize(Field field,
                                 FieldReader reader)

Read a field value from the specified reader

compareTo

public int compareTo(FieldValue fieldValue)

Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable<FieldValue>
