public class BetweenFilter
extends AndFilter

Filter which compares the result of a method invocation with a value for "Between" condition. We use the standard ISO/IEC 9075:1992 semantic, according to which "X between Y and Z" is equivalent to "X >= Y && X <= Z". In a case when either result of a method invocation or a value to compare are equal to null, the evaluate test yields false. This approach is equivalent to the way the NULL values are handled by SQL.

evaluate

public boolean evaluate(java.lang.Object oTarget)
Apply the test to the object.
Specified by:
evaluate in interface Filter
Overrides:
evaluate in class AllFilter
Parameters:
oTarget - the object to test
Returns:
true if the test passes, false otherwise

evaluateEntry

public boolean evaluateEntry(java.util.Map.Entry entry)
Apply the test to a Map Entry.
Specified by:
evaluateEntry in interface EntryFilter
Overrides:
evaluateEntry in class ArrayFilter
Parameters:
entry - the Map Entry to evaluate; never null
Returns:
true if the test passes, false otherwise

evaluateEntry

protected boolean evaluateEntry(java.util.Map.Entry entry,
                                QueryContext ctx,
                                QueryRecord.PartialResult.TraceStep step)
Check if the given entry passes the filter's evaluation. Record the actual cost of execution for each of the participating filters if a query context is provided.
Overrides:
evaluateEntry in class AllFilter
Parameters:
entry - a key value pair to filter
ctx - the query ctx; may be null
step - the step used to record the execution cost
Returns:
true if the entry passes the filter, false otherwise

applyIndex

public Filter applyIndex(java.util.Map mapIndexes,
                         java.util.Set setKeys)
Filter remaining keys using a Map of available indexes.

The filter is responsible for removing all keys from the passed set of keys that the applicable indexes can prove should be filtered. If the filter does not fully evaluate the remaining keys using just the index information, it must return a filter (which may be an EntryFilter) that can complete the task using an iterating implementation. If, on the other hand, the filter does fully evaluate the remaining keys using just the index information, then it should return null to indicate that no further filtering is necessary.

Specified by:
applyIndex in interface IndexAwareFilter
Overrides:
applyIndex in class ArrayFilter
Parameters:
mapIndexes - the available MapIndex objects keyed by the related ValueExtractor; read-only
setKeys - the mutable set of keys that remain to be filtered
Returns:
a Filter object (which may be an EntryFilter) that can be used to process the remaining keys, or null if no additional filter processing is necessary

calculateEffectiveness

public int calculateEffectiveness(java.util.Map mapIndexes,
                                  java.util.Set setKeys)
Given a Map of available indexes, determine if this IndexAwareFilter can use any of the indexes to assist in its processing, and if so, determine how effective the use of that index would be.

The returned value is an effectiveness estimate of how well this filter can use the specified indexes to filter the specified keys. An operation that requires no more than a single access to the index content (i.e. Equals, NotEquals) has an effectiveness of one. Evaluation of a single entry is assumed to have an effectiveness that depends on the index implementation and is usually measured as a constant number of the single operations. This number is referred to as evaluation cost.

If the effectiveness of a filter evaluates to a number larger than the keySet.size() * <evaluation cost> then a user could avoid using the index and iterate through the keySet calling evaluate rather then applyIndex.

Specified by:
calculateEffectiveness in interface IndexAwareFilter
Overrides:
calculateEffectiveness in class AllFilter
Parameters:
mapIndexes - the available MapIndex objects keyed by the related ValueExtractor; read-only
setKeys - the set of keys that will be filtered; read-only
Returns:
an effectiveness estimate of how well this filter can use the specified indexes to filter the specified keys

explain

public void explain(QueryContext ctx,
                    QueryRecord.PartialResult.ExplainStep step,
                    java.util.Set setKeys)
Record the projected query execution cost by this filter.

This method is expected to record the order of execution and estimated cost of applying corresponding indexes in the given step without actually applying any indexes or evaluating entries.

Specified by:
explain in interface QueryRecorderFilter
Overrides:
explain in class ArrayFilter
Parameters:
ctx - the query context
step - the step used to record the estimated execution cost
setKeys - the set of keys that would be filtered

trace

public Filter trace(QueryContext ctx,
                    QueryRecord.PartialResult.TraceStep step,
                    java.util.Set setKeys)
Filter the given keys using available indexes and record the cost of execution on the given step of the QueryRecord.

This method should record the size of the given key set before and after applying corresponding indexes using QueryRecord.PartialResult.RecordableStep.recordPreFilterKeys(int) and QueryRecord.PartialResult.TraceStep.recordPostFilterKeys(int) as well as the corresponding execution time using the QueryRecord.PartialResult.TraceStep.recordDuration(long) method.

This method is only called if the filter is an IndexAwareFilter and its implementations should explicitly call applyIndex() to actually perform the query. Additionally, this method should return the filter object (if any) returned by the applyIndex() call.

Specified by:
trace in interface QueryRecorderFilter
Overrides:
trace in class ArrayFilter
Parameters:
ctx - the query context
step - the step used to record the execution cost
setKeys - the mutable set of keys that remain to be filtered
Returns:
the filter returned from IndexAwareFilter.applyIndex(Map, Set)

trace

public boolean trace(QueryContext ctx,
                     QueryRecord.PartialResult.TraceStep step,
                     java.util.Map.Entry entry)
Evaluate the specified entry against this filter and record the evaluation cost on the given step of the QueryRecord.

This method should record the corresponding latencies using QueryRecord.PartialResult.TraceStep.recordDuration(long).

Implementations are responsible for explicitly calling evaluateEntry() method to perform the actual entry evaluation. Additionally, this method should return the result of the evaluateEntry call.

Specified by:
trace in interface QueryRecorderFilter
Overrides:
trace in class ArrayFilter
Parameters:
ctx - the context
step - the step used to record the evaluation cost
entry - the entry to evaluate
Returns:
the result returned from EntryFilter.evaluateEntry(Map.Entry)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Return a human-readable description for this Filter.
Overrides:
toString in class ArrayFilter
Returns:
a String description of the Filter

evaluateExtracted

protected boolean evaluateExtracted(java.lang.Object oExtracted)
Evaluate the specified extracted value.
Parameters:
oExtracted - an extracted value to evaluate
Returns:
true if the test passes

applySortedIndex

protected void applySortedIndex(java.util.Set setKeys,
                                java.util.SortedMap mapInverted)
Called by the applyIndex(java.util.Map, java.util.Set) method if the index corresponding to this filter's value extractor is a sorted index.
Parameters:
setKeys - the set of keys of the entries being filtered
mapInverted - the index to apply
