com.hazelcast.config.MapIndexConfig

All Implemented Interfaces:

DataSerializable, IdentifiedDataSerializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

MapIndexConfigReadOnly

public class MapIndexConfig
extends Object
implements IdentifiedDataSerializable

Contains the configuration for an index in a map. This class should be used in combination with the MapConfig. The reason to create an map index is to speed up searches for particular map entries.

Constructor Detail

MapIndexConfig

public MapIndexConfig()

Creates a MapIndexConfig without an attribute and with ordered set to false.

MapIndexConfig

public MapIndexConfig(String attribute,
                      boolean ordered)

Creates a MapIndexConfig with the given attribute and ordered setting.

Parameters:

attribute - the attribute that is going to be indexed

ordered - true if the index is ordered, false otherwise

See Also:

setOrdered(boolean), setAttribute(String)

MapIndexConfig

public MapIndexConfig(MapIndexConfig config)

Method Detail

getAsReadOnly

public MapIndexConfigReadOnly getAsReadOnly()

Deprecated. this method will be removed in 4.0; it is meant for internal usage only

Gets immutable version of this configuration.

Returns:

immutable version of this configuration

getAttribute

public String getAttribute()

Gets the attribute that is going to be indexed. If no attribute is set, null is returned.

Returns:

the attribute to be indexed

See Also:

setAttribute(String)

setAttribute

public MapIndexConfig setAttribute(String attribute)

Sets the attribute that is going to be indexed.

Parameters:

attribute - the attribute that is going to be indexed

Returns:

the updated MapIndexConfig

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if attribute is null or an empty string

isOrdered

public boolean isOrdered()

Checks if the index should be ordered.

Returns:

true if ordered, false otherwise

See Also:

setOrdered(boolean)

setOrdered

public MapIndexConfig setOrdered(boolean ordered)

Configures the index to be ordered or not ordered. Some indices can be ordered, such as age. Sometimes you want to look for all people with an age equal or greater than X. In other cases an ordered index doesn't make sense, such as a phone number for a person.

Parameters:

ordered - if the index should be an ordered index

Returns:

the updated MapIndexConfig

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

validateIndexAttribute

public static String validateIndexAttribute(String attribute)

Validates index attribute content.

Parameters:

attribute - attribute to validate

Returns:

the attribute for fluent assignment

getFactoryId

public int getFactoryId()

Description copied from interface: IdentifiedDataSerializable

Returns DataSerializableFactory factory ID for this class.

Specified by:

getFactoryId in interface IdentifiedDataSerializable

Returns:

factory ID

getId

public int getId()

Description copied from interface: IdentifiedDataSerializable

Returns type identifier for this class. It should be unique per DataSerializableFactory.

Specified by:

getId in interface IdentifiedDataSerializable

Returns:

type ID

writeData

               throws IOException

Description copied from interface: DataSerializable
