Class EQ_BOOLEAN_BOOLEAN

java.lang.Object

be.SIRAPRISE.typeimplementations.EQ_BOOLEAN_BOOLEAN

All Implemented Interfaces:

AggregationOperatorImplementation, BinaryBooleanOperatorImplementation, OperatorImplementation_V0104, OperatorImplementation_V0105, java.io.Externalizable, java.io.Serializable

public final class EQ_BOOLEAN_BOOLEAN
extends java.lang.Object
implements AggregationOperatorImplementation, BinaryBooleanOperatorImplementation

Boolean equality differs from all other scalar equality operators in that it also happens to be associative. For all other types, the question of associativity does not pose itself because the return type boolean is not the same as the arguments For boolean, the return type happens to be the same, and furthermore we are unfortunate enough for the operator to be damn associative, which brings us in need of another interface to be implemented (b1 = b2) = b3 === b1 = (b2 = b3) (b1 & b2 | ^b1 & ^b2) = b3 === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 (b1 & b2 | ^b1 & ^b2) & b3 | ^(b1 & b2 | ^b1 & ^b2) & ^b3 === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 (b1 & b2 & b3 | ^b1 & ^b2 & b3) | (^(b1 & b2) & ^(^b1 & ^b2)) & ^b3 === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 (b1 & b2 & b3 | ^b1 & ^b2 & b3) | ((^b1 | ^b2) & (b1 | b2)) & ^b3 === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 (b1 & b2 & b3 | ^b1 & ^b2 & b3) | ((^b1 & b2) | (b1 & ^b2)) & ^b3 === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 (b1 & b2 & b3 | ^b1 & ^b2 & b3) | ((^b1 & b2) & ^b3 | (b1 & ^b2) & ^b3) === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 (b1 & b2 & b3 | ^b1 & ^b2 & b3) | ^b1 & b2 & ^b3 | b1 & ^b2 & ^b3 === (b3 & b2 | ^b3 & ^b2) = b1 ...

Constructor Detail

EQ_BOOLEAN_BOOLEAN

@Deprecated
public EQ_BOOLEAN_BOOLEAN()

Deprecated. The public constructor is available only for use by the Externalizable machinery. The preferred way of obtaining an instance of this class is by invoking the getInstance method.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static EQ_BOOLEAN_BOOLEAN getInstance()

Returns:

the instance of the implementation

executeOperator

public ValueBuffer executeOperator(java.util.LinkedList<ValueBuffer> args)

Description copied from interface: OperatorImplementation_V0104

Performs the actual logic of the operator.

Specified by:

executeOperator in interface OperatorImplementation_V0104

Parameters:

args - the argument list. The list must hold as many ValueBuffer objects as there are arguments to the operator, and each ValueBuffer object holds a value for some argument to the operator. ValueBuffer objects on the list must appear in the same order as the operator argument declarations. Implementations have the option, but are not required, to do a check the conformance of the argument list (the argument count, notably) to the operator signature.

Returns:

A ValueBuffer object holding the result value of the operator execution in internal format.

getArgumentTypeNames

public java.lang.String[] getArgumentTypeNames()

Description copied from interface: OperatorImplementation_V0104

Gets the list of names of types of the needed argument values

Specified by:

getArgumentTypeNames in interface OperatorImplementation_V0104

Returns:

The names of the argument types

getIdentityElement

public ValueBuffer getIdentityElement()

Description copied from interface: AggregationOperatorImplementation

Gets the identity element of the operator in its domain.

Specified by:

getIdentityElement in interface AggregationOperatorImplementation

Returns:

The identity element.

getNegated

public java.lang.String getNegated(java.lang.String operand1,
                                   java.lang.String operand2)

Description copied from interface: BinaryBooleanOperatorImplementation

Gets the expression that is the negation of an invocation of this operator implementation

Specified by:

getNegated in interface BinaryBooleanOperatorImplementation

Parameters:

operand1 - The first operand of the invocation to be negated

operand2 - The second operand of the invocation to be negated

Returns:

the expression that is the negation of an invocation of this operator implementation

getReturnTypeDeclaration

public TypeDeclaration getReturnTypeDeclaration()

Description copied from interface: OperatorImplementation_V0105

Gets the full type declaration of the type of the return value. Differs from the _V0104 getReturnTypeName() in that for nonscalar return types, this method also returns the heading, not just only the RELATION or TUPLE typename.

Specified by:

getReturnTypeDeclaration in interface OperatorImplementation_V0105

Returns:

the full type declaration of the type of the return value

getReturnTypeName

public java.lang.String getReturnTypeName()

Description copied from interface: OperatorImplementation_V0104

Gets the name of the type of the return value

Specified by:

getReturnTypeName in interface OperatorImplementation_V0104

Returns:

the name of the type of the return value

getSignature

public java.lang.String getSignature()

Description copied from interface: OperatorImplementation_V0104

Gets the name of the operator implemented by this implementation object

Specified by:

getSignature in interface OperatorImplementation_V0104

Returns:

the name of the operator implemented by this implementation object

isDeterministic

public boolean isDeterministic()

Description copied from interface: OperatorImplementation_V0104

Tells whether the operator is deterministic with respect to the arguments of its invocations. An operator is deterministic if and only if for any two distinct invocations, if all the argument values are the same, then the result value returned will also be the same. An example of a nondeterministic operators is RANDOM().

Specified by:

isDeterministic in interface OperatorImplementation_V0104

Returns:

true if the operator is deterministic.

readExternal

public void readExternal(java.io.ObjectInput in)

Specified by:

readExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(java.io.ObjectOutput out)

Specified by:

writeExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable
