Class Sort

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.search.suggest.Sort

public final class Sort
extends Object

On-disk sorting of byte arrays. Each byte array (entry) is a composed of the following fields:

• (two bytes) length of the following byte array,
• exactly the above count of bytes for the sequence to be sorted.

See Also:

• sort(File, File)

Constructor Details

Sort

public Sort()
     throws IOException

Defaults constructor.

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

• defaultTempDir()
• Sort.BufferSize.automatic()

Sort

public Sort(Comparator<BytesRef> comparator)
     throws IOException

Defaults constructor with a custom comparator.

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

• defaultTempDir()
• Sort.BufferSize.automatic()

Sort

public Sort(Comparator<BytesRef> comparator,
 Sort.BufferSize ramBufferSize,
 File tempDirectory,
 int maxTempfiles)

All-details constructor.

Method Details

sort

public Sort.SortInfo sort(File input,
 File output)
                   throws IOException

Sort input to output, explicit hint for the buffer size. The amount of allocated memory may deviate from the hint (may be smaller or larger).

Throws:

IOException

defaultTempDir

public static File defaultTempDir()
                           throws IOException

Returns the default temporary directory. By default, java.io.tmpdir. If not accessible or not available, an IOException is thrown

Throws:

IOException

getComparator

public Comparator<BytesRef> getComparator()

Returns the comparator in use to sort entries
