      Description copied from class: ACell
      Validates the local structure and invariants of this cell. Called by validate() super implementation. Should validate directly contained data, but should not validate all other structure of this cell. In particular, should not traverse potentially missing child Refs.
      Specified by:
      validateCell in class ACell
      Throws:
      InvalidDataException - If the Cell is invalid
    • encodeRaw

      public int encodeRaw(byte[] bs, int pos)
      Description copied from class: AString
      Encode the data of this String. Assumes tag already written
      Specified by:
      encodeRaw in class AString
      Parameters:
      bs - A byte array to which to write the encoding
      pos - The offset into the byte array
      Returns:
      New position after writing
    • encodeRawData

      public int encodeRawData(byte[] bs, int pos)
      Description copied from class: AString
      Encode the raw UTF-8 data of this String. Assumes tag/length already written
      Specified by:
      encodeRawData in class AString
      Parameters:
      bs - Byte array to encode to
      pos - Position in target array to write to
      Returns:
      End position in array after encoding
    • estimatedEncodingSize

      public int estimatedEncodingSize()
      Description copied from interface: IWriteable
      Estimate the encoded data size for this Cell. Used for quickly sizing buffers. Implementations should try to return a size that is likely to contain the entire object when represented in binary format, including the tag byte.
      Returns:
      The estimated size for the binary representation of this object.
    • isCanonical

      public boolean isCanonical()
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Returns true if this Cell is in a canonical representation for message writing. Non-canonical objects may be used on a temporary internal basis, they must always be converted to canonical representations for external use (e.g. Encoding).
      Specified by:
      isCanonical in class ACell
      Returns:
      true if the object is in canonical format, false otherwise
    • isCVMValue

      public final boolean isCVMValue()
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Returns true if this Cell represents a first class CVM Value. Sub-structural cells that are not themselves first class values should return false, pretty much everything else should return true. Note: CVM values might not be in a canonical format, e.g. temporary data structures
      Specified by:
      isCVMValue in class ACell
      Returns:
      true if the object is a CVM Value, false otherwise
    • isEmbedded

      public boolean isEmbedded()
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Determines if this Cell Represents an embedded object. Embedded objects are encoded directly into the encoding of the containing Cell (avoiding the need for a hashed reference). Subclasses should override this if they have a cheap O(1) way to determine if they are embedded or otherwise.
      Overrides:
      isEmbedded in class ACell
      Returns:
      true if Cell is embedded, false otherwise
    • getRefCount

      public int getRefCount()
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Gets the number of Refs contained within this Cell. This number is final / immutable for any given instance and is defined by the Cell encoding rules. Contained Refs may be either external or embedded.
      Specified by:
      getRefCount in class ACell
      Returns:
      The number of Refs in this Cell
    • read

      public static AString read(long length, ByteBuffer bb)
      Read a StringShort from a ByteBuffer. Assumes tag and length already read and correct.
      Parameters:
      length - Length in number of chars to read
      bb - ByteBuffer to read from
      Returns:
      AString instance
    • toBlob

      public Blob toBlob()
      Description copied from class: AString
      Converts this String to a Blob byte representation. Must round trip all values.
      Specified by:
      toBlob in class AString
      Returns:
      Blob representation of UTF-8 String
    • equals

      public boolean equals(ACell a)
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Checks for equality with another object. In general, data objects should be considered equal if they have the same canonical representation, i.e. an identical encoding with the same hash value. Subclasses SHOULD override this if offer have a more efficient equals implementation. MUST NOT require reads from Store.
      Overrides:
      equals in class ACell
      Parameters:
      a - Cell to compare with. May be null??
      Returns:
      True if this cell is equal to the other object
    • equals

      public boolean equals(StringShort a)
    • compareTo

      public int compareTo(AString o)
      Specified by:
      compareTo in interface Comparable<AString>
      Specified by:
      compareTo in class AString
    • toCanonical

      public ACell toCanonical()
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Converts this Cell to its canonical version. Returns this Cell if already canonical, may be O(n) in size of value otherwise.
      Specified by:
      toCanonical in class ACell
      Returns:
      Canonical version of Cell
