public LongProperty()

Method Detail

getValueEncoded

public byte[] getValueEncoded()

Get the property's value encoded as byte-array or null, if the property is empty. Note, that this might be null, even though Property.getValue() returns a non-null value; for example an empty Collection might cause this.

This method must encode the value in a way that can be decoded by Property.setValueEncoded(byte[]).

The implementation in LongProperty returns either null or 8 bytes containing the long value in a pretty raw form (copied byte-by-byte).

Specified by:

getValueEncoded in class Property<Long>

Returns:

the byte-array-representation of the property-value or null.

Property.setValueEncoded(byte[])

setValueEncoded

public void setValueEncoded(byte[] encodedValue)
                     throws IllegalArgumentException

Set the property's value encoded as byte-array or null, if the property shall be empty.

This method must be symmetric to Property.getValueEncoded(), i.e. every possible result of getValueEncoded() must be understood by this method. A byte-array that is not understood should cause an IllegalArgumentException.

Specified by:

setValueEncoded in class Property<Long>

Parameters:

encodedValue - the byte-array-representation of the property-value or null.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the encodedValue is neither null nor a byte-array with a length of exactly 8.
