Method Detail

fill

public void fill(Object value)
          throws IllegalArgumentException

Description copied from interface: ITupleColumn.Object

Fill the column. If the value is a number with value NaN, the entry will be recorded but it will not contribue to the column's statistics.

Specified by:

fill in interface ITupleColumn.Object

Parameters:

value - The base type or object to fill with.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException

value

public Object value()

Description copied from interface: ITupleColumn.Object

Get the object stored in the column at the current cursor's position.

Specified by:

value in interface ITupleColumn.Object

Returns:

The object.

defaultValue

public Object defaultValue()

Description copied from interface: ITupleColumn.Object

Get the column default value.

Specified by:

defaultValue in interface ITupleColumn.Object

Returns:

The column's default.

fillableObject

public Object fillableObject()

Description copied from interface: ITupleColumn.Object

Used when filling. This method returns a prebooked (in general empty) object. This is intended to help the filling of a tuple in case of dealing with complex objects. Reissuing the method after a ITuple::addRow may return the same object but reseted. This method may return zero in case the implementation don't have the necessary material to provide a prebooked object of any kind. In case the column contains tuples (T = ITuple), this methods returns an empty tuple booked according to what had been specified at creation of the main tuple. In case the tuple column is binded to a user variable (done through the bind method), this method returns the pointer passed to the bind method. The user must not delete the returned object.

Specified by:

fillableObject in interface ITupleColumn.Object

Returns:

An object.
