Enum Class DataRepresentation

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<DataRepresentation>
com.pervasive.datarush.tokens.DataRepresentation
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<DataRepresentation>, java.lang.constant.Constable

public enum DataRepresentation extends Enum<DataRepresentation>
Controls the representation of a dataset. Each data representation has two aspects:
  1. The base: this the the default value that is assumed for unspecified values.
  2. A flag that indicates whether the data is sparse or dense.
At the moment, sparse data is always "zero based" and dense data is always "null based".
  • Enum Constant Details

    • DENSE_BASE_NULL

      public static final DataRepresentation DENSE_BASE_NULL
      Data representation is dense; Values not set default to null.
    • SPARSE_BASE_ZERO

      public static final DataRepresentation SPARSE_BASE_ZERO
      Data representation is sparse; values not set default to zero.
  • Method Details

    • values

      public static DataRepresentation[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared
    • valueOf

      public static DataRepresentation valueOf(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null
    • base

      public DataRepresentation.Base base()
      Returns the base of this representation.
      Returns:
      the base of this representation.
    • isSparse

      public boolean isSparse()
      Returns whether this representation is sparse.
      Returns:
      whether this representation is sparse.
