public final class SQLBoolean
extends DataType
implements BooleanDataValue

SQLBoolean satisfies the DataValueDescriptor interfaces (i.e., DataType). It implements a boolean column, e.g. for * storing a column value; it can be specified when constructed to not allow nulls. Nullability cannot be changed after construction, as it affects the storage size and mechanism.

Because DataType is a subtype of DataType, SQLBoolean can play a role in either a DataType/Row or a DataType/Row, interchangeably.

We assume the store has a flag for nullness of the value, and simply return a 0-length array for the stored form when the value is null.

PERFORMANCE: There are likely alot of performance improvements possible for this implementation -- it new's Integer more than it probably wants to.

Method Detail

isNull

public boolean isNull()
Description copied from interface: org.apache.derby.iapi.services.io.Storable
Return whether the value is null or not.

Specified by:
isNull in interface org.apache.derby.iapi.services.io.Storable

getBoolean

public boolean getBoolean()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a boolean. Throws an exception if the data value is not a boolean. For DataValueDescriptor, this is the preferred interface for BIT, but for this no-casting interface, it isn't, because BIT is stored internally as a Bit, not as a Boolean.

Specified by:
getBoolean in interface BooleanDataValue
Overrides:
getBoolean in class DataType

makeInt

private static int makeInt(boolean b)

getByte

public byte getByte()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a byte. Throws an exception if the data value is not a byte.

Specified by:
getByte in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getByte in class DataType

getShort

public short getShort()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a short. Throws an exception if the data value is not a short.

Specified by:
getShort in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getShort in class DataType

getInt

Gets the value in the data value descriptor as an int. Throws an exception if the data value is not an int.

Specified by:
getInt in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getInt in class DataType

getLong

public long getLong()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a long. Throws an exception if the data value is not a long.

Specified by:
getLong in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getLong in class DataType

getFloat

public float getFloat()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a float. Throws an exception if the data value is not a float.

Specified by:
getFloat in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getFloat in class DataType

getDouble

public double getDouble()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a double. Throws an exception if the data value is not a double.

Specified by:
getDouble in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getDouble in class DataType

typeToBigDecimal

public int typeToBigDecimal()
Implementation for BOOLEAN type. Convert to a BigDecimal using long

Specified by:
typeToBigDecimal in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
typeToBigDecimal in class DataType

getString

public java.lang.String getString()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a String. Throws an exception if the data value is not a string.

Specified by:
getString in interface DataValueDescriptor

getObject

public java.lang.Object getObject()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the value in the data value descriptor as a Java Object. The type of the Object will be the Java object type corresponding to the data value's SQL type. JDBC defines a mapping between Java object types and SQL types - we will allow that to be extended through user type definitions. Throws an exception if the data value is not an object (yeah, right).

Specified by:
getObject in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
getObject in class DataType

getLength

public int getLength()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Gets the length of the data value. The meaning of this is implementation-dependent. For string types, it is the number of characters in the string. For numeric types, it is the number of bytes used to store the number. This is the actual length of this value, not the length of the type it was defined as. For example, a VARCHAR value may be shorter than the declared VARCHAR (maximum) length.

Specified by:
getLength in interface DataValueDescriptor

getTypeName

public java.lang.String getTypeName()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Get the SQL name of the datatype

Specified by:
getTypeName in interface DataValueDescriptor

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(java.io.ObjectOutput out)
                   throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface: java.io.Externalizable
This method is responsible for writing the instance data of an object to the passed in stream. Note that this stream is not a subclass of OutputStream, but rather is a class that implements the ObjectOutput interface. That interface provides a number of methods for writing Java data values to a stream.

Not that the implementation of this method must be coordinated with the implementation of readExternal.

Specified by:
writeExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

readExternal

public void readExternal(java.io.ObjectInput in)
                  throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface: java.io.Externalizable
This method restores an object's state by reading in the instance data for the object from the passed in stream. Note that this stream is not a subclass of InputStream, but rather is a class that implements the ObjectInput interface. That interface provides a mechanism for reading in Java data types from a stream.

Note that this method must be compatible with writeExternal. It must read back the exact same types that were written by that method in the exact order they were written.

If this method needs to read back an object instance, then the class for that object must be found and loaded. If that operation fails, then this method throws a ClassNotFoundException

Specified by:
readExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

readExternalFromArray

public void readExternalFromArray(org.apache.derby.iapi.services.io.ArrayInputStream in)
                           throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Read the DataValueDescriptor from the stream.

Initialize the data value by reading it's values from the ArrayInputStream. This interface is provided as a way to achieve possible performance enhancement when reading an array can be optimized over reading from a generic stream from readExternal().

Specified by:
readExternalFromArray in interface DataValueDescriptor

restoreToNull

public void restoreToNull()

typePrecedence

public int typePrecedence()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Each built-in type in JSQL has a precedence. This precedence determines how to do type promotion when using binary operators. For example, float has a higher precedence than int, so when adding an int to a float, the result type is float. The precedence for some types is arbitrary. For example, it doesn't matter what the precedence of the boolean type is, since it can't be mixed with other types. But the precedence for the number types is critical. The SQL standard requires that exact numeric types be promoted to approximate numeric when one operator uses both. Also, the precedence is arranged so that one will not lose precision when promoting a type.

Specified by:
typePrecedence in interface DataValueDescriptor
Overrides:
typePrecedence in class DataType

truthValue

public static SQLBoolean truthValue(DataValueDescriptor leftOperand,
                                    DataValueDescriptor rightOperand,
                                    boolean truth)
Return the SQL truth value for a comparison. This method first looks at the operands - if either is null, it returns the unknown truth value. This implements "normal" SQL null semantics, where if any operand is null, the result is null. Note that there are cases where these semantics are incorrect - for example, NULL AND FALSE is supposed to be FALSE, not NULL (the NULL truth value is the same as the UNKNOWN truth value). If neither operand is null, it returns a static final variable containing the SQLBoolean truth value. It returns different values depending on whether the truth value is supposed to be nullable. This method always returns a pre-allocated static final SQLBoolean. This is practical because there are so few possible return values. Using pre-allocated values allows us to avoid constructing new SQLBoolean values during execution.


truthValue

public static SQLBoolean truthValue(DataValueDescriptor leftOperand,
                                    DataValueDescriptor rightOperand,
                                    java.lang.Boolean truth)
same as above, but takes a Boolean, if it is null, unknownTruthValue is returned


truthValue

public static SQLBoolean truthValue(boolean value)
Get a truth value.


unknownTruthValue

public static SQLBoolean unknownTruthValue()
Return an unknown truth value. Check to be sure the return value is nullable.


falseTruthValue

public static SQLBoolean falseTruthValue()
Return a false truth value.


trueTruthValue

public static SQLBoolean trueTruthValue()
Return a true truth value.


equals

public boolean equals(boolean val)
Determine whether this SQLBoolean contains the given boolean value. This method is used by generated code to determine when to do short-circuiting for an AND or OR.

Specified by:
equals in interface BooleanDataValue

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Description copied from class: java.lang.Object
Convert this Object to a human-readable String. There are no limits placed on how long this String should be or what it should contain. We suggest you make it as intuitive as possible to be able to place it into System.out.println() 55 and such.

It is typical, but not required, to ensure that this method never completes abruptly with a java.lang.RuntimeException.

This method will be called when performing string concatenation with this object. If the result is null, string concatenation will instead use "null".

The default implementation returns getClass().getName() + "@" + Integer.toHexString(hashCode()).


hashCode

public int hashCode()
Description copied from class: java.lang.Object
Get a value that represents this Object, as uniquely as possible within the confines of an int.

There are some requirements on this method which subclasses must follow:

  • Semantic equality implies identical hashcodes. In other words, if a.equals(b) is true, then a.hashCode() == b.hashCode() must be as well. However, the reverse is not necessarily true, and two objects may have the same hashcode without being equal.
  • It must be consistent. Whichever value o.hashCode() returns on the first invocation must be the value returned on all later invocations as long as the object exists. Notice, however, that the result of hashCode may change between separate executions of a Virtual Machine, because it is not invoked on the same object.

Notice that since hashCode is used in java.util.Hashtable and other hashing classes, a poor implementation will degrade the performance of hashing (so don't blindly implement it as returning a constant!). Also, if calculating the hash is time-consuming, a class may consider caching the results.

The default implementation returns System.identityHashCode(this)


estimateMemoryUsage

public int estimateMemoryUsage()
Description copied from interface: DataValueDescriptor
Estimate the memory usage in bytes of the data value and the overhead of the class.

Specified by:
estimateMemoryUsage in interface DataValueDescriptor
