Class RearrangedRowsAndColumns

java.lang.Object
org.apache.druid.query.rowsandcols.RearrangedRowsAndColumns
All Implemented Interfaces:
RowsAndColumns

public class RearrangedRowsAndColumns extends Object implements RowsAndColumns
This class exists to "decorate" a rows and columns such that it pretends to exist in a new ordering.

The constructor generally takes an int[] of pointers, these pointers are used to re-map the rows from the RowsAndColumns object. That is, if the RowsAndColumns has 4 rows and the array new int[]{3, 1, 2, 0} is passed in, then the order of traverals of the rows will be 3 -> 1 -> 2 -> 0.

This can be useful for sorting potentially immutable data, as the list of pointers can identify the order that the rows should be traversed in. It can also be used for clustering like-data together.

While this avoids a copy, in cases where the data will be iterated regularly, it also generates a random-access pattern that is not always optimal.

  • Method Details

    • getColumnNames

      public Collection<String> getColumnNames()
      Description copied from interface: RowsAndColumns
      The set of column names available from the RowsAndColumns
      Specified by:
      getColumnNames in interface RowsAndColumns
      Returns:
      The set of column names available from the RowsAndColumns
    • numRows

      public int numRows()
      Description copied from interface: RowsAndColumns
      The number of rows in the RowsAndColumns object
      Specified by:
      numRows in interface RowsAndColumns
      Returns:
      the integer number of rows
    • findColumn

      @Nullable public Column findColumn(String name)
      Description copied from interface: RowsAndColumns
      Finds a column by name. null is returned if the column is not found. The RowsAndColumns object should not attempt to default not-found columns to pretend as if they exist, instead the user of the RowsAndColumns object should decide the correct semantic interpretation of a column that does not exist. It is expected that most locations will choose to believe that the column does exist and is always null, but there are often optimizations that can effect this same assumption without doing a lot of extra work if the calling code knows that it does not exist.
      Specified by:
      findColumn in interface RowsAndColumns
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the column to find
      Returns:
      the Column, if found. null if not found.
    • as

      @Nullable public <T> T as(Class<T> clazz)
      Description copied from interface: RowsAndColumns
      Asks the RowsAndColumns to return itself as a concrete implementation of a specific interface. The interface asked for will tend to be a semantically-meaningful interface. This method allows the calling code to interrogate the RowsAndColumns object about whether it can offer a meaningful optimization of the semantic interface. If a RowsAndColumns cannot do anything specifically optimal for the interface requested, it should return null instead of trying to come up with its own default implementation.
      Specified by:
      as in interface RowsAndColumns
      Type Parameters:
      T - The interface that the calling code wants a concrete implementation of
      Parameters:
      clazz - A class object representing the interface that the calling code wants a concrete implementation of
      Returns:
      A concrete implementation of the interface, or null if there is no meaningful optimization to be had through a local implementation of the interface.
