Interface CoderFactory

• ---

  
  

  public interface CoderFactory

  A CoderFactory creates coders and decomposes values. It may operate on a parameterized type, such as List, in which case the create(java.util.List<? extends com.google.cloud.dataflow.sdk.coders.Coder<?>>) method accepts a list of coders to use for the type parameters.

    Modifier and Type	Method and Description
    Coder<?>	create(List<? extends Coder<?>> componentCoders) Returns a Coder<?>, given argument coder to use for values of a particular type, given the Coders for each of the type's generic parameter types.
    List<Object>	getInstanceComponents(Object value) Returns a list of objects contained in value, one per type argument, or null if none can be determined.

    • create

      Coder<?> create(List<? extends Coder<?>> componentCoders)

      Returns a Coder<?>, given argument coder to use for values of a particular type, given the Coders for each of the type's generic parameter types.

    • getInstanceComponents

      List<Object> getInstanceComponents(Object value)

      Returns a list of objects contained in value, one per type argument, or null if none can be determined. The list of returned objects should be the same size as the list of coders required by create(java.util.List<? extends com.google.cloud.dataflow.sdk.coders.Coder<?>>).
