Class MatchTuples

java.lang.Object
  com.sun.mdm.index.matching.converter.MatchTuples

public class MatchTuples

extends java.lang.Object

Contains the tuples representing all the configured match fields of a SystemObject/SBR (i.e. a de-normalized 'flattened' object tree represented as an array of arrays). Additionaly it contains easily accessible meta-data describing the tuples, i.e. the matchType a column was configured as.

Constructor Summary

MatchTuples()
Creates new MatchTuples

MatchTuples(java.lang.String[] columnMatchTypes, java.lang.String[] columnQualifiedNames, EPath[] columnEPaths, MatchColumn[] matchColumns, java.lang.String[][] tuples)
Creates new MatchTuples

Method Summary

EPath[]	columnEPaths() The parsed ePaths of all the columns The position of the ePath in the returned array corresponds to the postion of the column in the tuples, i.e.
java.lang.String[]	getColumnMatchTypes() The match types of all the columns The position of the matchType in the returned array corresponds to the postion of the column in the tuples, i.e.
java.lang.String[]	getColumnQualifiedNames() The fully qualified names of all the columns The position of the qualified name in the returned array corresponds to the position of the column in the tuples, i.e.
MatchColumn[]	getMatchColumns() The match column configuration of all the columns The position of the match column in the returned array corresponds to the postion of the column in the tuples, i.e.
java.lang.String[][]	getTuples() The match tuples data, dimension 1 is the rows, dimension 2 is the columns: tuples[row][column] The array of arrays returned is 'rectangular', i.e.

MatchTuples

public MatchTuples(java.lang.String[] columnMatchTypes,
                   java.lang.String[] columnQualifiedNames,
                   EPath[] columnEPaths,
                   MatchColumn[] matchColumns,
                   java.lang.String[][] tuples)

Creates new MatchTuples

Parameters:

columnMatchTypes - match type of each column

columnQualifiedNames - qualified name of each column

columnEPaths - ePath for each each column

matchColumns - match column definition of each column

tuples - all the tuples dimension one is the 'row', dimension 2 is the 'column'

Method Detail

columnEPaths

public EPath[] columnEPaths()

The parsed ePaths of all the columns The position of the ePath in the returned array corresponds to the postion of the column in the tuples, i.e. ePaths[0] describes tuples[row][0]

Returns:

the parsed ePaths of all the columns

getColumnMatchTypes

public java.lang.String[] getColumnMatchTypes()

The match types of all the columns The position of the matchType in the returned array corresponds to the postion of the column in the tuples, i.e. columnTypes[0] describes tuples[row][0]

Returns:

The match types of all the columns

getColumnQualifiedNames

public java.lang.String[] getColumnQualifiedNames()

The fully qualified names of all the columns The position of the qualified name in the returned array corresponds to the position of the column in the tuples, i.e. qualifiedNames[0] describes tuples[row][0]

Returns:

the fully qualified names of all the columns

getMatchColumns

public MatchColumn[] getMatchColumns()

The match column configuration of all the columns The position of the match column in the returned array corresponds to the postion of the column in the tuples, i.e. matchColumns[0] describes tuples[row][0]

Returns:

the match column configuration of all the columns

getTuples

public java.lang.String[][] getTuples()

The match tuples data, dimension 1 is the rows, dimension 2 is the columns: tuples[row][column] The array of arrays returned is 'rectangular', i.e. all contained arrays have the same number of elements.

Returns:

the match tuples data
