Interface PointWriter

All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable, Closeable

All Known Implementing Classes:

HeapPointWriter, OfflinePointWriter

public interface PointWriter
extends Closeable

Appends many points, and then at the end provides a PointReader to iterate those points. This abstracts away whether we write to disk, or use simple arrays in heap.

NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	append(byte[] packedValue, long ord, int docID)	Add a new point
void	destroy()	Removes any temp files behind this writer
PointReader	getReader(long startPoint, long length)	Returns a PointReader iterator to step through all previously added points
PointReader	getSharedReader(long startPoint, long length, List<Closeable> toCloseHeroically)	Returns the single shared reader, used at multiple times during the recursion, to read previously added points
