  +--com.sleepycat.bdb.bind.tuple.TupleTupleBinding
All Implemented Interfaces:
EntityBinding
Direct Known Subclasses:
TupleTupleMarshalledBinding

public abstract class TupleTupleBinding
extends Object
implements EntityBinding

An abstract entity binding that uses a tuple key and a tuple value. This class takes care of converting the data to/from TupleInput and TupleOutput objects. Its three abstract methods must be implemented by a concrete subclass to convert between tuples and entity objects.


Constructor Summary
TupleTupleBinding(TupleFormat keyFormat, TupleFormat valueFormat)
          Creates a tuple-tuple entity binding.
 
Method Summary
 Object dataToObject(DataBuffer key, DataBuffer value)
          Converts key and value data buffers into an entity Object.
abstract  Object dataToObject(TupleInput keyInput, TupleInput valueInput)
          Constructs an entity object from TupleInput key and value data objects.
 DataFormat getKeyFormat()
          Returns the format used for the key data of this binding.
 DataFormat getValueFormat()
          Returns the format used for the value data of this binding.
 void objectToKey(Object object, DataBuffer key)
          Extracts the key data from an entity Object.
abstract  void objectToKey(Object object, TupleOutput output)
          Extracts a key tuple from an entity object.
 void objectToValue(Object object, DataBuffer value)
          Extracts the value data from an entity Object.
abstract  void objectToValue(Object object, TupleOutput output)
          Extracts a key tuple from an entity object.
