Class AbstractPersistingIntIDFactory

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    IBaseIDFactory, IIntIDFactory
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    FileIntIDFactory

    @ThreadSafe
    public abstract class AbstractPersistingIntIDFactory
    extends Object
    implements IIntIDFactory
    This implementation of IIntIDFactory reads IDs from a device. It does it by reserving a range of n IDs so that not each ID reservation requires IO. If only 1 ID is effectively used, the other n-1 IDs are lost and will never be assigned to any object again.

      • AbstractPersistingIntIDFactory

        protected AbstractPersistingIntIDFactory​(@Nonnegative
                                                 int nReserveCount)
        Constructor.
        Parameters:
        nReserveCount - The number of IDs to reserve per persistence layer access. Must be > 0.
    • Method Detail

      • getReserveCount

        @Nonnegative
        public final int getReserveCount()
        Returns:
        The number of IDs to reserve, as provided in the constructor. Always > 0.
      • readAndUpdateIDCounter

        @IsLocked(WRITE)
        protected abstract int readAndUpdateIDCounter​(@Nonnegative
                                                      int nReserveCount)
        Read the current ID from the device. In case the method is called for a non-initialized device, 0 should be returned.
        The update should write the read value plus the passed reserve count back to the device. This method should perform an atomic read and update to avoid that ID can be reused.
        Pseudo code:
         protected int readAndUpdateIDCounter (int nReserveCount)
         {
           final int nRead = FileIO.read (file);
           FileIO.write (file, nRead + nReserveCount);
           return nRead;
         }
         
        Parameters:
        nReserveCount - the number that should be added to the read value. Always > 0.
        Returns:
        0 if this method is called for a non-initialized device, the value read from the device otherwise or CGlobal.ILLEGAL_UINT in case of an error.
      • getNewID

        public final int getNewID()
        Description copied from interface: IIntIDFactory
        Create a new unique integer ID.
        Specified by:
        getNewID in interface IIntIDFactory
        Returns:
        The newly created ID.
