Method Detail

get

public static ReflectData get()

Return the singleton instance.

createDatumReader

public DatumReader createDatumReader(Schema schema)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Returns a DatumReader for this kind of data.

Overrides:

createDatumReader in class SpecificData

setField

public void setField(Object record,
            String name,
            int position,
            Object o)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Called by GenericDatumReader.readRecord(java.lang.Object, org.apache.avro.Schema, org.apache.avro.io.ResolvingDecoder) to set a record fields value to a record instance. The default implementation is for IndexedRecord.

Overrides:

setField in class GenericData

getField

public Object getField(Object record,
              String name,
              int position)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Called by GenericDatumReader.readRecord(java.lang.Object, org.apache.avro.Schema, org.apache.avro.io.ResolvingDecoder) to retrieve a record field value from a reused instance. The default implementation is for IndexedRecord.

Overrides:

getField in class GenericData

isRecord

protected boolean isRecord(Object datum)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Called by the default implementation of GenericData.instanceOf(org.apache.avro.Schema, java.lang.Object).

Overrides:

isRecord in class GenericData

isArray

protected boolean isArray(Object datum)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Called by the default implementation of GenericData.instanceOf(org.apache.avro.Schema, java.lang.Object).

Overrides:

isArray in class GenericData

isBytes

protected boolean isBytes(Object datum)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Called by the default implementation of GenericData.instanceOf(org.apache.avro.Schema, java.lang.Object).

Overrides:

isBytes in class GenericData

getRecordSchema

protected Schema getRecordSchema(Object record)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Called to obtain the schema of a record. By default calls {GenericContainer#getSchema(). May be overridden for alternate record representations.

Overrides:

getRecordSchema in class GenericData

validate

public boolean validate(Schema schema,
               Object datum)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Returns true if a Java datum matches a schema.

Overrides:

validate in class GenericData

getClass

public Class getClass(Schema schema)

Description copied from class: SpecificData

Return the class that implements a schema, or null if none exists.

Overrides:

getClass in class SpecificData

createSchema

protected Schema createSchema(Type type,
                  Map<String,Schema> names)

Description copied from class: SpecificData

Create the schema for a Java type.

Overrides:

createSchema in class SpecificData

makeNullable

public static Schema makeNullable(Schema schema)

Create and return a union of the null schema and the provided schema.

createFieldSchema

protected Schema createFieldSchema(Field field,
                       Map<String,Schema> names)

Create a schema for a field.

getProtocol

public Protocol getProtocol(Class iface)

Return the protocol for a Java interface.

Note that this requires that Paranamer is run over compiled interface declarations, since Java 6 reflection does not provide access to method parameter names. See Avro's build.xml for an example.

Overrides:

getProtocol in class SpecificData

compare

protected int compare(Object o1,
          Object o2,
          Schema s,
          boolean equals)

Description copied from class: GenericData

Comparison implementation. When equals is true, only checks for equality, not for order.

Overrides:

compare in class SpecificData
