com.hazelcast.nio.serialization
Interface Data

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultData

public interface Data

Data is basic unit of serialization. It stores binary form of an object serialized by SerializationService.toData(Object).

Method Summary

int	dataSize() Returns size of internal binary data in bytes
int	getHeapCost() Returns approximate heap cost of this Data object in bytes.
int	getPartitionHash() Returns partition hash calculated for serialized object.
int	getType() Returns serialization type of binary form.
long	hash64() Returns 64-bit hash code for this Data object.
boolean	hasPartitionHash() Returns true if Data has partition hash, false otherwise.
boolean	isPortable() Returns true if this Data is created from a Portable object, false otherwise.
byte[]	toByteArray() Returns byte array representation of internal binary format.
int	totalSize() Returns the total size of Data in bytes

Method Detail

toByteArray

byte[] toByteArray()

Returns byte array representation of internal binary format.

Returns:

binary data

getType

int getType()

Returns serialization type of binary form. It's defined by Serializer.getTypeId()

Returns:

serializer type id

totalSize

int totalSize()

Returns the total size of Data in bytes

Returns:

total size

dataSize

int dataSize()

Returns size of internal binary data in bytes

Returns:

internal data size

getHeapCost

int getHeapCost()

Returns approximate heap cost of this Data object in bytes.

Returns:

approximate heap cost

getPartitionHash

int getPartitionHash()

Returns partition hash calculated for serialized object. Partition hash is used to determine partition of a Data and is calculated using PartitioningStrategy during serialization.

If partition hash is not set then standard hashCode() is used.

Returns:

partition hash

hasPartitionHash

boolean hasPartitionHash()

Returns true if Data has partition hash, false otherwise.

Returns:

true if Data has partition hash, false otherwise.

hash64

long hash64()

Returns 64-bit hash code for this Data object.

Returns:

64-bit hash code

isPortable

boolean isPortable()

Returns true if this Data is created from a Portable object, false otherwise.

Returns:

true if source object is Portable, false otherwise.
