    • validateCell

      public void validateCell() throws InvalidDataException
      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
    • encode

      public int encode(byte[] bs, int pos)
      Description copied from class: ACell
      Writes this Cell's encoding to a byte array, including a tag byte which will be written first. Cell must be canonical, or else an error may occur.
      Specified by:
      encode in interface IWriteable
      Overrides:
      encode 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
    • 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
    • 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
    • byteAt

      protected byte byteAt(long i)
      Description copied from class: AString
      Gets a byte at the specified index. Returns -1 (0xff) if outside String.
      Specified by:
      byteAt in class AString
      Parameters:
      i - Index into String (byte position)
      Returns:
      Raw byte value
    • toCanonical

      public AString 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
    • toBlob

      public ABlob 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
    • compareTo

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

      protected void writeToBuffer(ByteBuffer bb)
      Specified by:
      writeToBuffer in class AString
    • slice

      public AString slice(long start, long end)
      Description copied from class: AString
      Gets a slice of this string, or null if not a valid slice
      Specified by:
      slice in class AString
      Parameters:
      start - Start index (inclusive)
      end - End index (Exclusive)
      Returns:
      Specified substring
