Class NaturalEventBean

java.lang.Object

com.espertech.esper.common.internal.event.core.NaturalEventBean

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventBean, DecoratingEventBean

public class NaturalEventBean
extends Object
implements EventBean, DecoratingEventBean

An event that is carries multiple representations of event properties: A synthetic representation that is designed for delivery as EventBean to client update listener code, and a natural representation as a bunch of Object-type properties for fast delivery to client subscriber objects via method call.

Constructor Details

NaturalEventBean

public NaturalEventBean(EventType eventBeanType,
 Object[] natural,
 EventBean optionalSynthetic)

Ctor.

Parameters:

eventBeanType - the event type of the synthetic event

natural - the properties of the event

optionalSynthetic - the event bean that is the synthetic event, or null if no synthetic is packed in

Method Details

getEventType

public EventType getEventType()

Description copied from interface: EventBean

Return the EventType instance that describes the set of properties available for this event.

Specified by:

getEventType in interface EventBean

Returns:

event type

get

public Object get(String property)
           throws PropertyAccessException

Description copied from interface: EventBean

Returns the value of an event property for the given property name or property expression.

Returns null if the property value is null. Throws an exception if the expression is not valid against the event type.

The method takes a property name or property expression as a parameter. Property expressions may include indexed properties via the syntax "name[index]", mapped properties via the syntax "name('key')", nested properties via the syntax "outer.inner" or combinations thereof.

Specified by:

get in interface EventBean

Parameters:

property - - name or expression of the property whose value is to be retrieved

Returns:

the value of a property with the specified name.

Throws:

PropertyAccessException - - if there is no property of the specified name, or the property cannot be accessed

getUnderlying

public Object getUnderlying()

Description copied from interface: EventBean

Get the underlying data object to this event wrapper.

Specified by:

getUnderlying in interface EventBean

Returns:

underlying data object, usually either a Map or a Java bean instance.

getUnderlyingEvent

public EventBean getUnderlyingEvent()

Description copied from interface: DecoratingEventBean

Returns the underlying event to the decorated event.

Specified by:

getUnderlyingEvent in interface DecoratingEventBean

Returns:

underlying

getDecoratingProperties

public Map<String,Object> getDecoratingProperties()

Description copied from interface: DecoratingEventBean

Returns decorating properties.

Specified by:

getDecoratingProperties in interface DecoratingEventBean

Returns:

property name and values

getNatural

public Object[] getNatural()

Returns the column object result representation.

Returns:

select column values

getOptionalSynthetic

public EventBean getOptionalSynthetic()

Returns the synthetic event that can be attached.

Returns:

synthetic if attached, or null if none attached

getFragment

public Object getFragment(String propertyExpression)

Description copied from interface: EventBean

Returns event beans or array of event bean for a property name or property expression.

For use with properties whose value is itself an event or whose value can be represented as an event by the underlying event representation.

The EventType of the event bean instance(s) returned by this method can be determined by EventType.getFragmentType(String). Use EventPropertyDescriptor to obtain a list of properties that return fragments from an event type.

Returns null if the property value is null or the property value cannot be represented as a fragment by the underlying representation.

The method takes a property name or property expression as a parameter. Property expressions may include indexed properties via the syntax "name[index]", mapped properties via the syntax "name('key')", nested properties via the syntax "outer.inner" or combinations thereof.

Specified by:

getFragment in interface EventBean

Parameters:

propertyExpression - - name or expression of the property whose value is to be presented as an EventBean or array of EventBean

Returns:

the value of a property as an EventBean or array of EventBean
