Package org.apache.avro.io

Class BufferedBinaryEncoder

java.lang.Object

org.apache.avro.io.Encoder

org.apache.avro.io.BinaryEncoder

org.apache.avro.io.BufferedBinaryEncoder

All Implemented Interfaces:

Flushable

Direct Known Subclasses:

BlockingBinaryEncoder

public class BufferedBinaryEncoder
extends BinaryEncoder

An Encoder for Avro's binary encoding.

This implementation buffers output to enhance performance. Output may not appear on the underlying output until flush() is called.

DirectBinaryEncoder can be used in place of this implementation if the buffering semantics are not desired, and the performance difference is acceptable.

To construct or reconfigure, use EncoderFactory.binaryEncoder(OutputStream, BinaryEncoder).

To change the buffer size, configure the factory instance used to create instances with EncoderFactory.configureBufferSize(int)

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
int	bytesBuffered()	Returns the number of bytes currently buffered by this encoder.

void	writeDouble(double d)	Write a double.
void	writeFixed(byte[] bytes, int start, int len)	Writes a fixed size binary object.
void	writeFixed(ByteBuffer bytes)	Writes a fixed from a ByteBuffer.
void	writeFloat(float f)	Write a float.
void	writeInt(int n)	Writes a 32-bit integer.
void	writeLong(long n)	Write a 64-bit integer.
protected void	writeZero()	Write a zero byte to the underlying output.

writeFixed

public void writeFixed(byte[] bytes,
 int start,
 int len)
                throws IOException

Description copied from class: Encoder

Writes a fixed size binary object.

Specified by:

writeFixed in class Encoder

Parameters:

bytes - The contents to write

start - The position within bytes where the contents start.

len - The number of bytes to write.

Throws:

IOException

writeFixed

public void writeFixed(ByteBuffer bytes)
                throws IOException

Description copied from class: Encoder

Writes a fixed from a ByteBuffer.

Overrides:

writeFixed in class Encoder

Throws:

IOException

writeZero

protected void writeZero()
                  throws IOException

Write a zero byte to the underlying output.

Specified by:

writeZero in class BinaryEncoder

Throws:

IOException

bytesBuffered

public int bytesBuffered()

Description copied from class: BinaryEncoder

Returns the number of bytes currently buffered by this encoder. If this Encoder does not buffer, this will always return zero.

Call Flushable.flush() to empty the buffer to the underlying output.

Specified by:

bytesBuffered in class BinaryEncoder
