    java.io.Serializable

    public class BigIntegerCoder
    extends AtomicCoder<java.math.BigInteger>
    A BigIntegerCoder encodes a BigInteger as a byte array containing the big endian two's-complement representation, encoded via ByteArrayCoder.

      • decode

        public java.math.BigInteger decode​(java.io.InputStream inStream)
                                    throws java.io.IOException,
                                           CoderException

      • verifyDeterministic

        public void verifyDeterministic()
        Description copied from class: AtomicCoder
        Throw Coder.NonDeterministicException if the coding is not deterministic.

        In order for a Coder to be considered deterministic, the following must be true:

        • two values that compare as equal (via Object.equals() or Comparable.compareTo(), if supported) have the same encoding.
        • the Coder always produces a canonical encoding, which is the same for an instance of an object even if produced on different computers at different times.
        .

        Unless overridden, does not throw. An AtomicCoder is presumed to be deterministic

        Overrides:
        verifyDeterministic in class AtomicCoder<java.math.BigInteger>
      • consistentWithEquals

        public boolean consistentWithEquals()
        Returns true if this Coder is injective with respect to Object.equals(java.lang.Object).

        Whenever the encoded bytes of two values are equal, then the original values are equal according to Objects.equals(). Note that this is well-defined for null.

        This condition is most notably false for arrays. More generally, this condition is false whenever equals() compares object identity, rather than performing a semantic/structural comparison.

        By default, returns false.

        Overrides:
        consistentWithEquals in class Coder<java.math.BigInteger>
        Returns:
        true. This coder is injective.
      • getEncodedElementByteSize

        protected long getEncodedElementByteSize​(java.math.BigInteger value)
                                          throws java.lang.Exception
        Returns the size in bytes of the encoded value using this coder.
        Overrides:
        getEncodedElementByteSize in class Coder<java.math.BigInteger>
        Returns:
        the size of the encoding as a byte array according to ByteArrayCoder
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception
