Class Tuple

java.lang.Object
com.streambase.sb.Tuple
All Implemented Interfaces:
com.streambase.sb.internal.CloneableData, Serializable, Cloneable
Direct Known Subclasses:
CompiledTuple
public abstract class Tuple extends Object implements Cloneable, com.streambase.sb.internal.CloneableData, Serializable
An class that represents a Tuple of StreamBase data.

To create a new Tuple object, use the Schema.createTuple() method on a Schema instance.

The DataType of each Field must be appropriate for the get and set methods invoked on the Field. For example, the getDouble(Schema.Field) & setDouble(Schema.Field, double) methods work only on double fields. The setField(Schema.Field, Object) will do default conversions from different types.

For performance-critical paths, use the type-specific get and set methods that take a parameter of type Schema.Field (as opposed to the the methods that take an int or a String).

Note that all methods accepting a Schema.Field argument will throw an IllegalArgumentException if the Field object was not obtained from the Schema associated with this Tuple instance (getSchema()).

This class is not thread safe. If instances of this class are accessed from multiple threads, access must be synchronized.

Note: Serializations of instances of this class that are created (e.g., by using ObjectOutputStream) in one version of StreamBase in general will not be deserializable in any other version of StreamBase.

Note: The Serialization feature is DEPRECATED and will be removed in a future release.

      value - the value to set the field to. This can be null to set the field to null.
      Throws:
      TupleException - if there was a conversion error or if the field doesn't exist

    • setField

      public final void setField(Schema.Field field, Object value) throws TupleException
      Set a specified field to a specified boxed value.

      If the value is not a natural type for the type of the specified field, this method attempts to convert the value based on the field's type. (A "natural type" for a field type is the Java type that is acceptable to a type-specific setXxx() method for that field. In the list below, the natural types for each StreamBase type are listed in parentheses after each type.)

      Conversions:

      int (Integer), double (Double), long (Long)
      Numeric value types are converted (possibly with loss of precision) if necessary. For all other values types, the value is converted to a String (with Object.toString()) and an attempt is made to parse the string into a numeric value of the required type.
      boolean (Boolean):
      The value is converted to a String, turned to lowercase, and then checked for the string values "true", "yes", "1", and "t" (all of which result in the field being set to true) and "false", "no", "0", and "f" (all of which result in the field being set to false).
      string (String):
      Values of type ByteArrayView and byte[] are assigned by converting the bytes to a string using an internal StreamBase conversion routine. For all other value types, the value is converted to a String with Object.toString().
      timestamp (Timestamp):
      Values of type Date are converted with Timestamp(java.util.Date). Numeric value types are treated as a number of seconds (time interval).
      blob (byte[], ByteArrayView):
      If the value is a String, it's converted to an array of bytes, representing the ASCII encoding of the string's characters unless overridden by the setting of the streambase.tuple-charset Java property.
      tuple (Tuple):
      If the value is a String, it's parsed as a CSV-formatted list of field values (e.g., "1,foo").
      list (List):
      If the value is a String, it's parsed as a square-bracketed, CSV-formatted list of element values (e.g., "[1,3,5]").
      If a conversion is required, this method may run more slowly than if a conversion is not required. Use of the conversion ability of this method in performance-critical code should be avoided.

      If a conversion is required but none of the above conversions apply, a TupleException exception is thrown

      Note on CSV (comma-separated values) format: In the case of list or tuple fields which themselves contain list or tuple values, care must be taken to properly use double quotes where necessary. (The presence of commas in those nested values in the CSV string requires them to be surrounded by quotes. Further nesting may require increased quoting.) See RFC 4180 for details on CSV format.

      Parameters:
      field - field to set
      value - the value to set the field to. This can be null to set the field to null.
      Throws:
      TupleException - if there was a value conversion error, the field doesn't exist in this Tuple or while traversing to a sub-field a null value was encountered
      Since:
