Class ByteString.LiteralByteString

java.lang.Object
com.google.protobuf.ByteString
com.google.protobuf.ByteString.LeafByteString
com.google.protobuf.ByteString.LiteralByteString
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Iterable<Byte>
Enclosing class:
ByteString
private static final class ByteString.LiteralByteString extends ByteString.LeafByteString
This class implements a ByteString backed by a single array of bytes, contiguous in memory. It supports substring by pointing to only a sub-range of the underlying byte array, meaning that a substring will reference the full byte-array of the string it's made from, exactly as with String.

    • LiteralByteString

      LiteralByteString(byte[] bytes)
      Creates a LiteralByteString backed by the given array, without copying.
      Parameters:

  • Method Details

    • byteAt

      public byte byteAt(int index)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Gets the byte at the given index. This method should be used only for random access to individual bytes. To access bytes sequentially, use the ByteString.ByteIterator returned by ByteString.iterator(), and call ByteString.substring(int, int) first if necessary.
      Specified by:
      byteAt in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      index - index of byte
      Returns:
      the value

    • internalByteAt

      byte internalByteAt(int index)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Gets the byte at the given index, assumes bounds checking has already been performed.
      Specified by:
      internalByteAt in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      index - index of byte
      Returns:
      the value

    • size

      public int size()
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Gets the number of bytes.
      Specified by:
      size in class ByteString
      Returns:
      size in bytes

    • substring

      public ByteString substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Return the substring from beginIndex, inclusive, to endIndex, exclusive.
      Specified by:
      substring in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      beginIndex - start at this index
      endIndex - the last character is the one before this index
      Returns:
      substring sharing underlying data

    • copyToInternal

      protected void copyToInternal(byte[] target, int sourceOffset, int targetOffset, int numberToCopy)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Internal (package private) implementation of ByteString.copyTo(byte[],int,int,int). It assumes that all error checking has already been performed and that numberToCopy > 0.
      Specified by:
      copyToInternal in class ByteString

    • copyTo

      public void copyTo(ByteBuffer target)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Copies bytes into a ByteBuffer.

      To copy a subset of bytes, you call this method on the return value of ByteString.substring(int, int). Example: byteString.substring(start, end).copyTo(target)

      Specified by:
      copyTo in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      target - ByteBuffer to copy into.

    • asReadOnlyByteBuffer

      public ByteBuffer asReadOnlyByteBuffer()
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Constructs a read-only java.nio.ByteBuffer whose content is equal to the contents of this byte string. The result uses the same backing array as the byte string, if possible.
      Specified by:
      asReadOnlyByteBuffer in class ByteString
      Returns:
      wrapped bytes

    • asReadOnlyByteBufferList

      public List<ByteBuffer> asReadOnlyByteBufferList()
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Constructs a list of read-only java.nio.ByteBuffer objects such that the concatenation of their contents is equal to the contents of this byte string. The result uses the same backing arrays as the byte string.

      By returning a list, implementations of this method may be able to avoid copying even when there are multiple backing arrays.

      Specified by:
      asReadOnlyByteBufferList in class ByteString
      Returns:
      a list of wrapped bytes

    • writeTo

      public void writeTo(OutputStream outputStream) throws IOException
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Writes a copy of the contents of this byte string to the specified output stream argument.
      Specified by:
      writeTo in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      outputStream - the output stream to which to write the data.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

    • writeTo

      void writeTo(ByteOutput output) throws IOException
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Writes this ByteString to the provided ByteOutput. Calling this method may result in multiple operations on the target ByteOutput.

      This method may expose internal backing buffers of the ByteString to the ByteOutput in order to avoid additional copying overhead. It would be possible for a malicious ByteOutput to corrupt the ByteString. Use with caution!

      Specified by:
      writeTo in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      output - the output target to receive the bytes
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs
      See Also:

    • writeToInternal

      void writeToInternal(OutputStream outputStream, int sourceOffset, int numberToWrite) throws IOException
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Internal version of ByteString.writeTo(OutputStream,int,int) that assumes all error checking has already been done.
      Specified by:
      writeToInternal in class ByteString
      Throws:
      IOException

    • toStringInternal

      protected String toStringInternal(Charset charset)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Constructs a new String by decoding the bytes using the specified charset.
      Specified by:
      toStringInternal in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      charset - encode using this charset
      Returns:
      new string

    • isValidUtf8

      public boolean isValidUtf8()
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Tells whether this ByteString represents a well-formed UTF-8 byte sequence, such that the original bytes can be converted to a String object and then round tripped back to bytes without loss.

      More precisely, returns true whenever: 

      Arrays.equals(byteString.toByteArray(),
    new String(byteString.toByteArray(), UTF_8).getBytes(UTF_8))

      This method returns false for "overlong" byte sequences, as well as for 3-byte sequences that would map to a surrogate character, in accordance with the restricted definition of UTF-8 introduced in Unicode 3.1. Note that the UTF-8 decoder included in Oracle's JDK has been modified to also reject "overlong" byte sequences, but (as of 2011) still accepts 3-byte surrogate character byte sequences.

      See the Unicode Standard, Table 3-6 UTF-8 Bit Distribution, and Table 3-7 Well Formed UTF-8 Byte Sequences.

      Specified by:
      isValidUtf8 in class ByteString
      Returns:
      whether the bytes in this ByteString are a well-formed UTF-8 byte sequence

    • equalsInternal

      protected final boolean equalsInternal(ByteString other)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Internal portion of the equals check: as a precondition the caller has already checked most fast properties that are common (including reference identity, null, size, cached hash codes if available) are the same. This method is when we need to check the actual string contents from there.
      Specified by:
      equalsInternal in class ByteString

    • equalsRange

      boolean equalsRange(ByteString other, int offset, int length)
      Check equality of the substring of given length of this object starting at zero with another ByteString substring starting at offset.
      Specified by:
      equalsRange in class ByteString.LeafByteString
      Parameters:
      other - what to compare a substring in
      offset - offset into other
      length - number of bytes to compare
      Returns:
      true for equality of substrings, else false.

    • partialHash

      protected int partialHash(int h, int offset, int length)
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Compute the hash across the value bytes starting with the given hash, and return the result. This is used to compute the hash across strings represented as a set of pieces by allowing the hash computation to be continued from piece to piece.
      Specified by:
      partialHash in class ByteString
      Parameters:
      h - starting hash value
      offset - offset into this value to start looking at data values
      length - number of data values to include in the hash computation
      Returns:
      ending hash value

    • newInput

      public InputStream newInput()
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Creates an InputStream which can be used to read the bytes.

      The InputStream returned by this method is guaranteed to be completely non-blocking. The method InputStream.available() returns the number of bytes remaining in the stream. The methods InputStream.read(byte[]), InputStream.read(byte[],int,int) and InputStream.skip(long) will read/skip as many bytes as are available. The method InputStream.markSupported() returns true.

      The methods in the returned InputStream might not be thread safe.

      Specified by:
      newInput in class ByteString
      Returns:
      an input stream that returns the bytes of this byte string.

    • newCodedInput

      public CodedInputStream newCodedInput()
      Description copied from class: ByteString
      Creates a CodedInputStream which can be used to read the bytes. Using this is often more efficient than creating a CodedInputStream that wraps the result of ByteString.newInput().
      Specified by:
      newCodedInput in class ByteString
      Returns:
      stream based on wrapped data
