Interface LongReference

All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable, Byteable, Closeable, net.openhft.chronicle.core.values.LongValue, net.openhft.chronicle.core.io.QueryCloseable

All Known Implementing Classes:

BinaryLongReference, BinaryTwoLongReference, TextLongReference, UncheckedLongReference

public interface LongReference
extends net.openhft.chronicle.core.values.LongValue, Byteable

Represents a reference to a 64-bit long value, which is both Byteable and LongValue.

The LongReference interface provides a contract for classes that need to represent a reference to a long value which can be read from or written to a BytesStore. This interface is particularly useful for memory-mapped values, where changes to the value are reflected in memory.

Classes implementing this interface are expected to provide efficient, low-level access to the underlying bytes of the referenced long value.
