Class Dataized

java.lang.Object
org.eolang.Dataized
public final class Dataized extends Object
A dataized object.

The class automates the process of turning EO objects into data. The mechanism is explained in details in our canonical paper. Simply put, it makes an attempt to either type-cast the provided object into data or find "Δ" attribute inside it. If neither of that works, there is a runtime exception.

  • Method Details

    • take

      public byte[] take()
      Extracts the data from the EO object as a byte array.

      This method performs the dataization process, which involves converting the EO object into a byte array. It logs the dataization process if the logging level is set to FINE and the current dataization level is within the maximum allowed level. If an error occurs during dataization, it logs the error details and rethrows the exception.

      Usage example:

      
 Phi phi = ...; // Initialize your EO object
 Dataized dataized = new Dataized(phi);
 byte[] data = dataized.take();
      Returns:
      The data

    • take

      public <T> T take(Class<T> type)
      Take the data with a type.
      Type Parameters:
      T - The type
      Parameters:
      type - The type
      Returns:
      The data

    • asString

      public String asString()
      Extract the data from the object and convert to string.
      Returns:
      Data as string

    • asNumber

      public Double asNumber()
      Extract the data from the object and convert to number.
      Returns:
      Data as number

    • asBool

      public Boolean asBool()
      Extract the data from the object and convert to boolean.
      Returns:
      Data as boolean

    • asBytes

      public Bytes asBytes()
