Interface PdxInstanceFactory

  • public interface PdxInstanceFactory
    PdxInstanceFactory gives you a way to create PdxInstances. Call the write methods to populate the field data and then call create() to produce an actual instance that contains the data. To create a factory call RegionService.createPdxInstanceFactory(String). A factory can only create a single instance. To create multiple instances create multiple factories or use PdxInstance.createWriter() to create subsequent instances. Using PdxInstance.createWriter() is usually faster.

        Writes the named field with the given value to the serialized form. The fields type is Object.

        It is best to use one of the other writeXXX methods if your field type will always be XXX. This method allows the field value to be anything that is an instance of Object. This gives you more flexibility but more space is used to store the serialized field.

      • markIdentityField

        PdxInstanceFactory markIdentityField​(java.lang.String fieldName)
        Indicate that the named field should be included in hashCode and equals checks of this object on a server that is accessing PdxInstance or when a client executes a query on a server. The fields that are marked as identity fields are used to generate the hashCode and equals methods of PdxInstance. Because of this, the identity fields should themselves either be primitives, or implement hashCode and equals. If no fields are set as identity fields, then all fields will be used in hashCode and equals checks. The identity fields should make marked after they are written using a write* method.
        Parameters:
        fieldName - the name of the field to mark as an identity field.
        Returns:
        this PdxInstanceFactory
        Throws:
        PdxFieldDoesNotExistException - if the named field has not already been written.

      • neverDeserialize
