Class DefaultByteArrayNodeFactory
java.lang.Object
com.googlecode.concurrenttrees.radix.node.concrete.DefaultByteArrayNodeFactory
- All Implemented Interfaces:
NodeFactory
,Serializable
A
NodeFactory
which creates Node
objects which store incoming edge characters as a byte array inside
the node. This is similar to DefaultCharArrayNodeFactory
, except nodes use a single byte to represent each
character in UTF-8, instead of Java's default 2-byte UFT-16 encoding.
This can reduce the memory overhead of storing character data by 50%, but supports only characters which can be
represented as a single byte in UTF-8. Throws an exception if characters are encountered which cannot be represented
as a single byte.- See Also:

createNode
public Node createNode(CharSequence edgeCharacters, Object value, List<Node> childNodes, boolean isRoot) Description copied from interface:NodeFactory
Returns a newNode
object which encapsulates the arguments supplied, optionally returning implementations of theNode
interface which are memory-optimized for storing only the supplied combination of variables, potentially further optimized based on variable values.- Specified by:
createNode
in interfaceNodeFactory
- Parameters:
edgeCharacters
- Provides edge characters to be stored in the node. This is never null. In the case of (re-)constructing the root node, this will contain zero characters, otherwise will always contain one or more charactersvalue
- An arbitrary object to associate with the node. This can be null, but it will not be null if dealing with a leaf node (when childNodes will be empty)childNodes
- A list of child nodes to store in the node. This will never be null, but may be empty when building a leaf nodeisRoot
- Indicates if this will be the root node, in which case edge characters will be non-null but empty, value will be null, and child nodes will be non-null but may be empty- Returns:
- An object implementing the
Node
interface which stores the given variables
