Constructor Detail

KeyOnlyComparator

public KeyOnlyComparator(org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.schema.comparators.SerializableComparator<K> comparator)

Method Detail

getKeyComparator

public org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.schema.comparators.SerializableComparator<K> getKeyComparator()

Gets the comparator used to compare keys. May be null in which case the compareKey method will throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:

getKeyComparator in interface TupleComparator<K,V>

Returns:

the comparator for comparing keys.

getValueComparator

public org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.schema.comparators.SerializableComparator<V> getValueComparator()

Will throw an UnsupportedOperationException every time.

Specified by:

getValueComparator in interface TupleComparator<K,V>

Returns:

the binary comparator for comparing values.

compareKey

public int compareKey(K key1,
                      K key2)

Compares key Object to determine their sorting order returning a value = to, < or > than 0.

Specified by:

compareKey in interface TupleComparator<K,V>

Parameters:

key1 - the first key to compare

key2 - the other key to compare to the first

Returns:

0 if both are equal, a negative value less than 0 if the first is less than the second, or a positive value if the first is greater than the second byte array.

compareValue

public int compareValue(V value1,
                        V value2)

Comparse value Objects to determine their sorting order returning a value = to, < or > than 0.

Specified by:

compareValue in interface TupleComparator<K,V>

Parameters:

value1 - the first value to compare

value2 - the other value to compare to the first

Returns:

0 if both are equal, a negative value less than 0 if the first is less than the second, or a positive value if the first is greater than the second Object.
