com.sleepycat.je.JoinCursor

public class JoinCursor
extends java.lang.Object

A specialized join cursor for use in performing equality or natural joins on secondary indices.

A join cursor is returned when calling Database.join.

To open a join cursor using two secondary cursors:

     Transaction txn = ...
     Database primaryDb = ...
     SecondaryDatabase secondaryDb1 = ...
     SecondaryDatabase secondaryDb2 = ...
     

     SecondaryCursor cursor1 = null;
     SecondaryCursor cursor2 = null;
     JoinCursor joinCursor = null;
     try {
         DatabaseEntry key = new DatabaseEntry();
         DatabaseEntry data = new DatabaseEntry();
         

         cursor1 = secondaryDb1.openSecondaryCursor(txn, null);
         cursor2 = secondaryDb2.openSecondaryCursor(txn, null);
         

         key.setData(...); // initialize key for secondary index 1
         OperationStatus status1 =
         cursor1.getSearchKey(key, data, LockMode.DEFAULT);
         key.setData(...); // initialize key for secondary index 2
         OperationStatus status2 =
         cursor2.getSearchKey(key, data, LockMode.DEFAULT);
         

         if (status1 == OperationStatus.SUCCESS &&
                 status2 == OperationStatus.SUCCESS) {
             

             SecondaryCursor[] cursors = {cursor1, cursor2};
             joinCursor = primaryDb.join(cursors, null);
             

             while (true) {
                 OperationStatus joinStatus = joinCursor.getNext(key, data,
                     LockMode.DEFAULT);
                 if (joinStatus == OperationStatus.SUCCESS) {
                      // Do something with the key and data.
                 } else {
                     break;
                 }
             }
         }
     } finally {
         if (cursor1 != null) {
             cursor1.close();
         }
         if (cursor2 != null) {
             cursor2.close();
         }
         if (joinCursor != null) {
             joinCursor.close();
         }
     }

Constructor Detail

JoinCursor

JoinCursor(Locker locker,
          Database primaryDb,
          Cursor[] cursors,
          JoinConfig configParam)
     throws DatabaseException

Creates a join cursor without parameter checking.

Throws:

DatabaseException

Method Detail

close

public void close()
           throws DatabaseException

Closes the cursors that have been opened by this join cursor.

The cursors passed to Database.join are not closed by this method, and should be closed by the caller.

Throws:

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getSortedCursors

Cursor[] getSortedCursors()

For unit testing.

getDatabase

public Database getDatabase()

Returns the primary database handle associated with this cursor.

Returns:

the primary database handle associated with this cursor.

getConfig

public JoinConfig getConfig()

Returns this object's configuration.

Returns:

this object's configuration.

getNext

public OperationStatus getNext(DatabaseEntry key,
                      LockMode lockMode)
                        throws DatabaseException

Returns the next primary key resulting from the join operation.

An entry is returned by the join cursor for each primary key/data pair having all secondary key values that were specified using the array of secondary cursors passed to Database.join.

Parameters:

key - the primary key returned as output. Its byte array does not need to be initialized by the caller.

lockMode - the locking attributes; if null, default attributes are used.

Returns:

OperationStatus.NOTFOUND if no matching key/data pair is found; otherwise, OperationStatus.SUCCESS.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if a DatabaseEntry parameter is null or does not contain a required non-null byte array.

DeadlockException - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if an invalid parameter was specified.

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.

getNext

public OperationStatus getNext(DatabaseEntry key,
                      DatabaseEntry data,
                      LockMode lockMode)
                        throws DatabaseException

Returns the next primary key and data resulting from the join operation.

An entry is returned by the join cursor for each primary key/data pair having all secondary key values that were specified using the array of secondary cursors passed to Database.join.

Parameters:

key - the primary key returned as output. Its byte array does not need to be initialized by the caller.

data - the primary data returned as output. Its byte array does not need to be initialized by the caller.

lockMode - the locking attributes; if null, default attributes are used.

Returns:

OperationStatus.NOTFOUND if no matching key/data pair is found; otherwise, OperationStatus.SUCCESS.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if a DatabaseEntry parameter is null or does not contain a required non-null byte array.

DeadlockException - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if an invalid parameter was specified.

DatabaseException - if a failure occurs.
