Class ApproxTopKCombine


public class ApproxTopKCombine extends AggregateFunction
APPROX_TOP_K_COMBINE(state [, counters]): the APPROX_TOP_K_ACCUMULATE states of its input merged into one — equal values add their counts, nothing is inherited — and trimmed to counters (a constant between 1 and 100000; by default the inputs' own limit, which every input must share: differing limits refuse with Invalid parameter value: ApproxTopK state. Reason: combining states with different numbers of counters). The result's datatype and width are the first state's; NULL inputs are skipped, and a combine that saw no state is the empty MISSING state with one counter. An argument that is not a state refuses with … Reason: invalid type.

    • createAccumulator

      public AggregateFunction.Accumulator createAccumulator()
      Description copied from class: AggregateFunction
      Creates the fresh, empty per-group state for one evaluation of this aggregate; the executor makes one per group (or per window partition) and never shares them.
      Specified by:
      createAccumulator in class AggregateFunction
      Returns:
      a new accumulator starting from this aggregate's empty-group state
    • evaluate

      public Object evaluate(List<Object> args)
      Description copied from class: BuiltInFunction
      Computes the function's result over its already-evaluated argument values. A SQL NULL argument arrives as Java null, and returning null makes the SQL result NULL.
      Specified by:
      evaluate in class BuiltInFunction
      Parameters:
      args - the argument values, in call order
      Returns:
      the function's value for these arguments, or null for SQL NULL
    • getMinArgCount

      public int getMinArgCount()
      Description copied from class: BuiltInFunction
      The fewest arguments a call to this function may pass; fewer is an argument-count error.
      Specified by:
      getMinArgCount in class BuiltInFunction
      Returns:
      the minimum accepted argument count
    • getMaxArgCount

      public int getMaxArgCount()
      Description copied from class: BuiltInFunction
      The most arguments a call to this function may pass; Integer.MAX_VALUE marks a variadic function (see BuiltInFunction.isVariadic()).
      Specified by:
      getMaxArgCount in class BuiltInFunction
      Returns:
      the maximum accepted argument count
