Method Detail

write

public abstract void write(Cell cell)
                    throws IOException

Description copied from interface: CellOutputStream

Implementation must copy the entire state of the Cell. If the written Cell is modified immediately after the write method returns, the modifications must have absolutely no effect on the copy of the Cell that was added in the write.

Specified by:

write in interface CellOutputStream

Parameters:

cell - Cell to write out

Throws:

IOException

checkFlushed

protected void checkFlushed()
                     throws CodecException

Throws:

CodecException

flush

public void flush()
           throws IOException

Description copied from interface: CellOutputStream

Let the implementation decide what to do. Usually means writing accumulated data into a byte[] that can then be read from the implementation to be sent to disk, put in the block cache, or sent over the network.

Specified by:

flush in interface CellOutputStream

Throws:

IOException
