Constructor Detail

EqualsFilter

public EqualsFilter()

Default constructor (necessary for the ExternalizableLite interface).

EqualsFilter

public EqualsFilter(ValueExtractor extractor,
                    java.lang.Object oValue)

Construct an EqualsFilter for testing equality.

Parameters:

extractor - the ValueExtractor to use by this filter

oValue - the object to compare the result with

EqualsFilter

public EqualsFilter(java.lang.String sMethod,
                    java.lang.Object oValue)

Construct an EqualsFilter for testing equality.

Parameters:

sMethod - the name of the method to invoke via reflection

oValue - the object to compare the result with

EqualsFilter

public EqualsFilter(java.lang.String sMethod,
                    int iValue)

Construct an EqualsFilter for testing equality.

Parameters:

sMethod - the name of the method to invoke via reflection

iValue - the integer value to compare the result with

Parameters:

sMethod - the name of the method to invoke via reflection

fValue - the float value to compare the result with

EqualsFilter

public EqualsFilter(java.lang.String sMethod,
                    double dValue)

Construct an EqualsFilter for testing equality.

Parameters:

sMethod - the name of the method to invoke via reflection

dValue - the double value to compare the result with

Method Detail

evaluateExtracted

protected boolean evaluateExtracted(java.lang.Object oExtracted)

Evaluate the specified extracted value.

Specified by:

evaluateExtracted in class ExtractorFilter

Parameters:

oExtracted - an extracted value to evaluate

Returns:

true iff the test passes

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 ExtractorFilter

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

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 ExtractorFilter

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
