Class ReflectionStructObjectInspector

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.objectinspector.StructObjectInspector

org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.objectinspector.SettableStructObjectInspector

org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.objectinspector.ReflectionStructObjectInspector

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, ObjectInspector

public class ReflectionStructObjectInspector
extends SettableStructObjectInspector

ReflectionStructObjectInspector works on struct data that is stored as a native Java object. It will drill down into the Java class to get the fields and construct ObjectInspectors for the fields, if they are not specified. Always use the ObjectInspectorFactory to create new ObjectInspector objects, instead of directly creating an instance of this class.

Method Detail

getCategory

public ObjectInspector.Category getCategory()

Description copied from interface: ObjectInspector

An ObjectInspector must inherit from one of the following interfaces if getCategory() returns: PRIMITIVE: PrimitiveObjectInspector LIST: ListObjectInspector MAP: MapObjectInspector STRUCT: StructObjectInspector.

getTypeName

public java.lang.String getTypeName()

Description copied from interface: ObjectInspector

Returns the name of the data type that is inspected by this ObjectInspector. This is used to display the type information to the user. For primitive types, the type name is standardized. For other types, the type name can be something like "list", "map", java class names, or user-defined type names similar to typedef.

shouldIgnoreField

public boolean shouldIgnoreField(java.lang.String name)

getStructFieldRef

public StructField getStructFieldRef(java.lang.String fieldName)

Description copied from class: StructObjectInspector

Look up a field.

Specified by:

getStructFieldRef in class StructObjectInspector

getAllStructFieldRefs

public java.util.List<? extends StructField> getAllStructFieldRefs()

Description copied from class: StructObjectInspector

Returns all the fields.

Specified by:

getAllStructFieldRefs in class StructObjectInspector

getStructFieldData

public java.lang.Object getStructFieldData(java.lang.Object data,
                                           StructField fieldRef)

Description copied from class: StructObjectInspector

returns null for data = null.

Specified by:

getStructFieldData in class StructObjectInspector

getStructFieldsDataAsList

public java.util.List<java.lang.Object> getStructFieldsDataAsList(java.lang.Object data)

Description copied from class: StructObjectInspector

returns null for data = null.

Specified by:

getStructFieldsDataAsList in class StructObjectInspector

create

public java.lang.Object create()

Description copied from class: SettableStructObjectInspector

Create a struct which is not null, but all its fields are null.

Specified by:

create in class SettableStructObjectInspector

setStructFieldData

public java.lang.Object setStructFieldData(java.lang.Object struct,
                                           StructField field,
                                           java.lang.Object fieldValue)

Description copied from class: SettableStructObjectInspector

Modify the value of a field. Returns the struct.

Specified by:
