Class RowDataUtil

  org.pentaho.di.core.row.RowDataUtil

public class RowDataUtil
extends Object

We use this class to do row manipulations like add, delete, resize, etc. That way, when we want to go for a metadata driven system with hiding deletes, over sized arrays etc, we can change these methods to find occurrences.

Method Detail

allocateRowData

public static Object[] allocateRowData(int size)

Allocate a new Object array. However, over allocate by a constant factor to make adding values faster.

Parameters:

size - the minimum size to allocate.

Returns:

the newly allocated object array

resizeArray

public static Object[] resizeArray(Object[] objects,
                                   int newSize)

Resize an object array making it bigger, over allocate, return the original array if there's enough room.

Parameters:

objects -

newSize -

Returns:

A new object array, resized.

createResizedCopy

public static Object[] createResizedCopy(Object[] objects,
                                         int newSize)

Resize an object array making it bigger, over allocate, always create a copy of the original array, even if there's enough room in the old one.

Parameters:

objects - the original row

newSize - the new size

Returns:

A new object array, resized.

createResizedCopy

public static Object[] createResizedCopy(Object[][] objects,
                                         int[] lengths)

This method concatenates data from an array of rows, each with their own specific length.

Parameters:

objects -

lengths -

Returns:

The concatenated array of objects.

removeItem

public static Object[] removeItem(Object[] objects,
                                  int index)

Remove an item from an Object array. This is a slow operation, later we want to just flag this object and discard it at the next resize. The question is of-course if it makes that much of a difference in the end.

Parameters:

objects -

index -

Returns:

addRowData

public static Object[] addRowData(Object[] one,
                                  int sourceLength,
                                  Object[] two)

Add two arrays and make one new one.

Parameters:

one - The first array

the - length of the row data or of it's longer, the location of the new extra value in the returned data row

two - The second array

Returns:

a new Array containing all elements from one and two after one another

addValueData

public static Object[] addValueData(Object[] rowData,
                                    int length,
                                    Object extra)

Add a single value to a row of data

Parameters:

rowData - The original row of data

the - length of the row data or of it's longer, the location of the new extra value in the returned data row

extra - The extra value to add

Returns:

a new Array containing all elements, including the extra one

removeItems

public static Object[] removeItems(Object[] rowData,
                                   int[] index)

Remove a number of items in a row of data.

Parameters:

rowData - the row of data to remove from

index - the index of all the items in the source table to remove. We don't check if the same index gets deleted twice!
