Method Detail

encode

public void encode(int value)
            throws IOException

This method makes sure the value wasn't previously encoded by checking against the Set. If the value wasn't encoded, it's added to the Set, and encoded with {#link Vint8#encode}

Specified by:

encode in class IntEncoder

Parameters:

value - an integer to be encoded

Throws:

IOException - possibly thrown by the OutputStream

createMatchingDecoder

public IntDecoder createMatchingDecoder()

Description copied from class: IntEncoder

Returns an IntDecoder which matches this encoder. Every encoder must return an IntDecoder and null is not a valid value. If an encoder is just a filter, it should at least return its wrapped encoder's matching decoder.

NOTE: this method should create a new instance of the matching decoder and leave the instance sharing to the caller. Returning the same instance over and over is risky because encoders and decoders are not thread safe.

Specified by:

createMatchingDecoder in class IntEncoder

toString

public String toString()
