Class BlockIo

java.lang.Object
  jdbm.recman.BlockIo

All Implemented Interfaces:

Externalizable, Serializable

public final class BlockIo
extends Object
implements Externalizable

This class wraps a page-sized byte array and provides methods to read and write data to and from it. The readers and writers are just the ones that the rest of the toolkit needs, nothing else. Values written are compatible with java.io routines. This block is never accessed directly, so it does not have to be thread-safe.

setView

public void setView(BlockView view)

Sets the current view of the block.

Parameters:

view - the current view

readByte

public byte readByte(int pos)

Reads a byte from the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - the position at which we will read the byte

Returns:

the read byte

writeByte

public void writeByte(int pos,
                      byte value)

Writes a byte to the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - The position where we want to write the value to

value - the byte value we want to write into the BlockIo

readShort

public short readShort(int pos)

Reads a short from the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - the position at which we will read the short

Returns:

the read short

writeShort

public void writeShort(int pos,
                       short value)

Writes a short to the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - The position where we want to write the value to

value - the short value we want to write into the BlockIo

readInt

public int readInt(int pos)

Reads an int from the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - the position at which we will read the int

Returns:

the read int

writeInt

                     int value)

Writes an int to the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - The position where we want to write the value to

value - the int value we want to write into the BlockIo

readLong

public long readLong(int pos)

Reads a long from the indicated position

Parameters:

pos - the position at which we will read the long

Returns:

the read long

writeLong
