Interface BinaryIdMapper

All Known Implementing Classes:

BinaryBasicIdMapper

public interface BinaryIdMapper

Type and field ID mapper for binary objects. Ignite never writes full strings for field or type names. Instead, for performance reasons, Ignite writes integer hash codes for type and field names. It has been tested that hash code conflicts for the type names or the field names within the same type are virtually non-existent and, to gain performance, it is safe to work with hash codes. For the cases when hash codes for different types or fields actually do collide BinaryIdMapper allows to override the automatically generated hash code IDs for the type and field names.

Binary ID mapper can be configured for all binary objects via BinaryConfiguration.getIdMapper() method, or for a specific binary type via BinaryTypeConfiguration.getIdMapper() method.

Method Detail

typeId

int typeId(String typeName)

Gets type ID for provided type name.

If 0 is returned, hash code of class simple name will be used.

Parameters:

typeName - Type name. Type name is a result of BinaryNameMapper.typeName(String) call for an initial class or type name.

Returns:

Type ID.

fieldId

int fieldId(int typeId,
            String fieldName)

Gets ID for provided field name.

If 0 is returned, hash code of field name will be used.

Parameters:

typeId - Type ID.

fieldName - Field name. Filed anme is a result of BinaryNameMapper.fieldName(String) call for an initial field name.

Returns:

Field ID.
