Class BitVector

java.lang.Object

gate.creole.annic.apache.lucene.util.BitVector

public final class BitVector
extends Object

Optimized implementation of a vector of bits. This is more-or-less like java.util.BitSet, but also includes the following:

• a count() method, which efficiently computes the number of one bits;
• optimized read from and write to disk;
• inlinable get() method;

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor and Description
BitVector(Directory d, String name) Constructs a bit vector from the file name in Directory d, as written by the write(gate.creole.annic.apache.lucene.store.Directory, java.lang.String) method.
BitVector(int n) Constructs a vector capable of holding n bits.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	clear(int bit) Sets the value of bit to zero.
int	count() Returns the total number of one bits in this vector.
boolean	get(int bit) Returns true if bit is one and false if it is zero.
void	set(int bit) Sets the value of bit to one.
int	size() Returns the number of bits in this vector.
void	write(Directory d, String name) Writes this vector to the file name in Directory d, in a format that can be read by the constructor BitVector(Directory, String).

Constructor Detail

BitVector

public BitVector(int n)

Constructs a vector capable of holding n bits.

BitVector

public BitVector(Directory d,
                 String name)
          throws IOException

Constructs a bit vector from the file name in Directory d, as written by the write(gate.creole.annic.apache.lucene.store.Directory, java.lang.String) method.

Throws:

IOException

Method Detail

set

public final void set(int bit)

Sets the value of bit to one.

clear

public final void clear(int bit)

Sets the value of bit to zero.

get

public final boolean get(int bit)

Returns true if bit is one and false if it is zero.

size

public final int size()

Returns the number of bits in this vector. This is also one greater than the number of the largest valid bit number.

count

public final int count()

Returns the total number of one bits in this vector. This is efficiently computed and cached, so that, if the vector is not changed, no recomputation is done for repeated calls.

write

public final void write(Directory d,
                        String name)
                 throws IOException

Writes this vector to the file name in Directory d, in a format that can be read by the constructor BitVector(Directory, String).

Throws:

IOException
