Detailed Description

PdxInstance provides run time access to the fields of a PDX without deserializing the PDX.

Preventing deserialization saves time and memory. The PdxInstance implementation is a lightweight wrapper that simply refers to the raw bytes of the PDX that are kept in the cache. Applications can choose to access PdxInstances instead of C++ objects by configuring the Cache to prefer PDX instances during deserialization. This can be done in cache.xml by setting the attribute read-serialized to true on the pdx element, or it can be done programmatically using the setPdxReadSerialized method. Once this preference is configured, then any time deserialization of a PDX is done it will deserialize into a PdxInstance. PdxInstances are immutable. If you want to change one call createWriter.

◆ hasField()

virtual bool apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::hasField ( const std::string &  fieldname)
pure virtual

Checks if the named field exists and returns the result.

This can be useful when writing code that handles more than one version of a PDX class.

Parameters
fieldnamethe name of the field to check
Returns
true if the named field exists; otherwise false

◆ hashcode()

virtual int32_t apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::hashcode ( ) const
overridepure virtual

Generates a hashcode based on the identity fields of this PdxInstance.

If a PdxInstance has marked identity fields using PdxWriter#markIdentityField then only the marked identity fields are its identity fields. Otherwise all its fields are identity fields.

For deserialization C++ Native Client requires the domain class to be registered. If the field is an array then all array elements are used for hashcode computation. Otherwise the raw bytes of its value are used to compute the hash code.

Exceptions
IllegalStateExceptionif the field contains an element that is not of CacheableKey derived type.
See also
serializationRegistry->addPdxType

Implements apache::geode::client::CacheableKey.

◆ isIdentityField()

virtual bool apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::isIdentityField ( const std::string &  fieldname)
pure virtual

Checks if the named field was PdxWriter#markIdentityFieldmarked as an identity field.

Note that if no fields have been marked then all the fields are used as identity fields even though this method will return false since none of them have been marked.

Parameters
fieldnamethe name of the field to check
Returns
true if the named field exists and was marked as an identify field; otherwise false

◆ objectSize()

virtual size_t apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::objectSize ( ) const
overridepure virtual
Returns
the size of the object in bytes This is an internal method. It is used in case of heap LRU property is set.

Reimplemented from apache::geode::client::Serializable.

◆ operator==()

virtual bool apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::operator== ( const CacheableKey other) const
overridepure virtual

Returns true if the given CacheableKey derived object is equals to this instance.

If other is not a PdxInstance then it is not equal to this instance. NOTE: Even if other is the result of calling getObject() it will not be equal to this instance

.

Otherwise equality of two PdxInstances is determined as follows:

  1. The domain class name must be equal for both PdxInstances
  2. Each identity field must be equal.

If one of the instances does not have a field that the other one does then equals will assume it has the field with a default value. If a PdxInstance has marked identity fields using markIdentityField then only the marked identity fields are its identity fields. Otherwise all its fields are identity fields.

An identity field is equal if all the following are true:

  1. The field name is equal.
  2. The field type is equal.
  3. The field value is equal.

If an identity field is of type derived from Cacheable then it is deserialized. For deserialization C++ Native Client requires the domain class to be registered. If the deserialized object is an array then all array elements are used to determine equality. If an identity field is of type CacheableObjectArray then it is deserialized and all array elements are used to determine equality. For all other field types the value does not need to be deserialized. Instead the serialized raw bytes are compared and used to determine equality.

Parameters
otherthe other instance to compare to this.
Returns
true if this instance is equal to other.
Exceptions
IllegalStateExceptionif the field contains an element that is not of CacheableKey derived type.

serializationRegistry->addPdxType

Implements apache::geode::client::CacheableKey.

◆ toData()

virtual void apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::toData ( PdxWriter output) const
overridepure virtual

serialize this object in geode PDX format.

This is an internal method.

Parameters
outputto serialize the PDX object

Implements apache::geode::client::PdxSerializable.

◆ toString()

virtual std::string apache::geode::client::PdxInstance::toString ( ) const
overridepure virtual

Prints out all of the identity fields of this PdxInstance.

If a PdxInstance has marked identity fields using PdxWriter#markIdentityField then only the marked identity fields are its identity fields. Otherwise all its fields are identity fields

. For deserialization C++ Native Client requires the domain class to be registered.
