public abstract class AbstractSlice<T>
extends RocksMutableObject

Slices are used by RocksDB to provide efficient access to keys and values.

This class is package private, implementers should extend either of the public abstract classes:

• Slice
• Regards the lifecycle of Java Slices in RocksDB: At present when you configure a Comparator from Java, it creates an instance of a C++ BaseComparatorJniCallback subclass and passes that to RocksDB as the comparator. That subclass of BaseComparatorJniCallback creates the Java
• subclass Objects. When you dispose the Java @see org.rocksdb.AbstractComparator subclass, it disposes the C++ BaseComparatorJniCallback subclass, which in turn destroys the Java @see org.rocksdb.AbstractSlice subclass Objects.

AbstractSlice

Method Details

data

public T data()

Returns the data of the slice.

Returns:

The slice data. Note, the type of access is determined by the subclass

See Also:

• data0(long)

data0

protected abstract T data0(long handle)

Access to the data is provided by the subtype as it needs to handle the generic typing.

Parameters:

handle - The address of the underlying native object.

Returns:

Java typed access to the data.

removePrefix

public abstract void removePrefix(int n)

Drops the specified n number of bytes from the start of the backing slice

Parameters:

n - The number of bytes to drop

clear

public abstract void clear()

Clears the backing slice

size

public int size()

Return the length (in bytes) of the data.

Returns:

The length in bytes.

empty

public boolean empty()

Return true if the length of the data is zero.

Returns:

true if there is no data, false otherwise.

toString

public String toString(boolean hex)

Creates a string representation of the data

Parameters:

hex - When true, the representation will be encoded in hexadecimal.

Returns:

The string representation of the data.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

compare

public int compare(AbstractSlice<?> other)

Three-way key comparison

Parameters:

other - A slice to compare against

Returns:

Should return either: 1) < 0 if this < other 2) == 0 if this == other 3) > 0 if this > other

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

If other is a slice object, then we defer to compare to check equality, otherwise we return false.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

other - Object to test for equality

Returns:

true when this.compare(other) == 0, false otherwise.

startsWith

public boolean startsWith(AbstractSlice<?> prefix)

Determines whether this slice starts with another slice

Parameters:

prefix - Another slice which may of may not be a prefix of this slice.

Returns:

true when this slice starts with the prefix slice

createNewSliceFromString

protected static long createNewSliceFromString(String str)

disposeInternal

protected final void disposeInternal(long handle)

Deletes underlying C++ slice pointer. Note that this function should be called only after all RocksDB instances referencing the slice are closed. Otherwise, an undefined behavior will occur.

Specified by:

disposeInternal in class RocksMutableObject
