Detailed Description

StandardTypeCoercion implements standard type conversions. It provides some ability to configure how certain values (such as booleans and dates) are Interpreted or formatted.

The default policy favors errors and avoids modifying data. See getDefaultPolicy(). Values may be truncated if the policy includes TRUNCATE_VALUES.

ByteBuffer com.vertica.sdk.NullTypeCoercion.asBinaryBytes ( Object  value, int  length, VerticaType  type  )

inherited

Not supported; returns null or raises TypeCoercionException.

Implements com.vertica.sdk.TypeCoercion.

Boolean com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBoolean	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Generates a Boolean (or null) value out of input values of various types, depending on the boolean evaluation strategy. Uses one of the various 'asBoolean' methods according to the current boolean evaluation strategy.

asBooleanByVertica(Object, VerticaType)

asBooleanByPerl(Object, VerticaType)

asBooleanByPython(Object, VerticaType)

asBooleanByJava(Object, VerticaType)

asBooleanByNumeric(Object, VerticaType)

Implements com.vertica.sdk.TypeCoercion.

Boolean com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBooleanByJava	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Interprets a Boolean value in a similar manner as Java's Boolean#valueOf(String) function, which handles only Strings.

• null values are null.

• Boolean values are used as-is.

• String values are evaluated via Boolean.valueOf(String).

Parameters

value	The value being coerced.
type	The target Vertica type, which is boolean.

Returns

value coerced to Boolean, potentially null.

Referenced by com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBoolean().

Boolean com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBooleanByNumeric	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Interprets a Boolean value in a similar manner as C/C++, where numeric values and booleans aren't strictly separated. Rather than handling only integer numerics, this handles all numerics.

• null values are null.

• Boolean values are used as-is.

• Number values are evaluated based on Number#doubleValue(). 0.0 is false and all other values are true.

• All other types are invalid input types.

Parameters

value	The value being coerced.
type	The target Vertica type, which is boolean.

Returns

value coerced to Boolean, potentially null.

Referenced by com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBoolean().

Boolean com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBooleanByPerl	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Interprets a Boolean value in a similar manner as Perl does. Unlike Perl which treats undef as false, the null value will give a null Boolean. Otherwise, behavior follows the Perl behavior as closely as possible.

• null values are null.

• Boolean values are used as-is.

• String values are false if empty (length() == 0) or if equal to "0". Strings are true otherwise. Whitespace is NOT ignored.

• Number values are evaluated based on doubleValue(). 0.0 is false and all other values are True.

• Collection and Map values are false if empty (size() == 0) and true otherwise.

• All other types are true. Therefore, this will never result in an invalid input type.

Parameters

value	The value being coerced.
type	The target Vertica type, which is boolean.

Returns

value coerced to Boolean, potentially null.

Referenced by com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBoolean().

Boolean com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBooleanByPython	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Interprets a Boolean value in a similar manner as Python does. Unlike Python which treats None as False, the null value will give a null Boolean. Otherwise, behavior follows the Python language specification. See "5.10 Boolean operations" in the Python 2.x reference on expressions.

• null values are null.

• Boolean values are used as-is.

• String values are false if empty (length() == 0) and true otherwise. Whitespace is NOT ignored.

• Number values are evaluated based on doubleValue(). 0.0 is false and all other values are True.

• Collection and Map values are false if empty (size() == 0) and true otherwise.

• All other types are true. Therefore, this will never result in an invalid input type.

Parameters

value	The value being coerced.
type	The target Vertica type, which is boolean.

Returns

value coerced to Boolean, potentially null.

Referenced by com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBoolean().

Boolean com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asBooleanByVertica	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Interprets a Boolean value in a similar manner as Vertica does internally.

• null values are null.

• Boolean values are used as-is.

• The following String values are true, after trimming leading and trailing whitespace and ignoring case: 't', 'true', 'y', 'yes', '1'.

• The following String values are false, after trimming leading and trailing whitespace and ignoring case: 'f', 'false', 'n', 'no', '0'.

• All other String values are invalid input values.

• Number values are evaluated based on doubleValue(). 0.0 is false and 1.0 is true. All other values are invalid input values.

• All other types are invalid input types.

Parameters

value	The value being coerced.
type	The target Vertica type, which is boolean.

Returns

value coerced to Boolean, potentially null.

ByteBuffer com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asCharBytes	(	Object	value,
		int	length,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Generates a ByteBuffer with the string representation of an object. Generally uses the same approach as Vertica's vsql presentation format for analogous types. Unknown types will use Java's String#valueOf(Object).

The value will be truncated to length when necessary if TRUNCATE_VALUES is specified in the policy. Otherwise values that are too long will return in either a null return value or a TypeCoercionException according to the policy (FAIL_INVALID_INPUT_VALUE).

In agreement with how 'char' values are stored in Vertica, trailing spaces will be removed if the type is 'char'.

Specifically, the following describes the textual representation of various types, which then undergoes truncation and trimming as necessary.

• null values are null.

• String values are used as-is.

• Long, Integer, Short, Byte, AtomicLong, AtomicInteger, and BigInteger types are represented in decimal, without ever using scientific notation. Negative values are preceded with a '-'.

• BigDecimal is also represented in decimal, without ever using scientific notation. BigDecimal#toPlainString() method is used.

• All other Number types are represented by passing the Number#doubleValue() through Double#toString() which uses scientific notation and represents NaN and Infinity.

• Boolean values are represented as 'true' or 'false'.

• java.sql.Date values are formatted with the format given by getDateFormat()

• java.util.Date values (including java.sql.Timestamp values) are formatted with the format given by getTimestampFormat().

• String#valueOf(Object) is used for all other values.

java.sql.Date com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asDate	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Generate a java.sql.Date representation of the provided object.

• null values are null.

• java.sql.Date values are used as-is. java.util.Date values are converted to java.sql.Date.

• String values are handled by parseDate(String, VerticaType).

• All other types are invalid input types.

Double com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asDouble	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Generates a Double representation of the provided object.

• null values are null.

• Number values use Number#doubleValue().

• Strings are parsed by the following rules. Violations are invalid input values. Note that the double data type has a limited range of precision and magnitude. Some precision may be lost. Extreme values may be represented as Infinity or -Infinity.

  • A hexidecimal integer value starting with '0x' or '0X' with optional leading '-' or '+'.

  • 'Infinity' (case insensitive) with optional leading '-' or '+'.

  • 'NaN' (case insensitive) with optional leading '-' or '+'.

  • A decimal number with or without scientific notation, with optional leading '-' or '+'

• All other types are invalid input types.

Implements com.vertica.sdk.TypeCoercion.

Long com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.asLong	(	Object	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Generates a Long representation of the provided object.

• null values are null.

• Number values use Number#doubleValue(). This usually implies truncation of any fractional part of the value, regardless of the truncation policy.

• Strings are parsed by the following rules. Violations are invalid input values. Note that the long data type has a limited range of magnitude. Values outside of this range are invalid input values. Values with fractional parts are truncated.

  • A hexidecimal integer value starting with '0x' or '0X' with optional leading '-' or '+'.

  • A decimal number with or without scientific notation, with optional leading '-' or '+'

• All other types are invalid input types.

Implements com.vertica.sdk.TypeCoercion.

		VerticaType	type
	)

Generate a java.sql.Timestamp representation of the provided object.

• null values are null.

• java.sql.Timestamp values are used as-is. java.util.Date values are converted to java.sql.Timestamp via getTime().

• String values are handled by parseTimestamp(String, VerticaType).

• All other types are invalid input types.

SpecialBigDecimal com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.parseNumber ( char[]  text )

protected

Parses a textual representation of a number into a SpecialBigDecimal. Input text is trimmed of whitespace, then evaluated as a perfect fit to:

• A hexidecimal integer value starting with '0x' or '0X' with optional leading '-' or '+'.

• 'Infinity' (case insensitive) with optional leading '-' or '+'.

• 'NaN' (case insensitive) with optional leading '-' or '+'.

• A decimal number with or without scientific notation, with optional leading '-' or '+'.

Parameters

text	A string as a character array.

Returns

A SpecialBigDecimal representing the value of the text, whether that is a BigDecimal value or a special non-real value.

java.sql.Timestamp com.vertica.sdk.StandardTypeCoercion.parseTimestamp	(	String	value,
		VerticaType	type
	)

Parse a timestamp from a String using the current timestamp parsing format. Because DateFormat#parse(String, ParsePosition) returns a java.sql.Date, the precision of this operation is only milliseconds, which is less than Vertica's possible precision of microseconds.

Note that timestamptz (aka 'timestamp with time zone') and timestamp values are parsed in the same manner, regardless of the current session's timezone.

Parameters

value	The String value being coerced, which is not null.
type	The target Vertica type, which is either timestamp or timestamptz.

Returns

A timestamp value, or null.
