    • set

      public void set(int index, int start, int length, ArrowBuf buffer)
      Store the given value at a particular position in the vector. isSet indicates whether the value is NULL or not.
      Parameters:
      index - position of the new value
      start - start position of data in buffer
      length - length of data in buffer
      buffer - data buffer containing the variable width element to be stored in the vector

    • setSafe

      public void setSafe(int index, int start, int length, ArrowBuf buffer)
      Same as set(int, int, int, int, ArrowBuf) except that it handles the case when index is greater than or equal to current value capacity of the vector.
      Parameters:
      index - position of the new value
      start - start position of data in buffer
      length - length of data in buffer
      buffer - data buffer containing the variable width element to be stored in the vector

    • allocateOrGetLastDataBuffer

      protected ArrowBuf allocateOrGetLastDataBuffer(int length)

    • setBytes

      protected final void setBytes(int index, byte[] value, int start, int length)
      This method is used to create a view buffer for a variable width vector. It handles both inline and data buffers.

      If the length of the value is less than or equal to INLINE_SIZE, the value is stored in the valueBuffer directly as an inline buffer. The valueBuffer stores the length of the value followed by the value itself. If the length of the value is greater than INLINE_SIZE, a new buffer is allocated and added to dataBuffers to hold the value. The viewBuffer in this case stores the length of the value, a prefix of the value, the index of the new buffer in dataBuffers, and the offset of the value in the new buffer.

      Parameters:
      index - The index at which the new value will be inserted.
      value - The byte array that contains the data to be inserted.
      start - The start index in the byte array from where the data for the new value begins.
      length - The length of the data in the byte array that belongs to the new value.

    • setBytes

      protected final void setBytes(int index, ArrowBuf valueBuf, int start, int length)
      This method is used to create a view buffer for a variable width vector. Similar to setBytes(int index, byte[] value, int start, int length)
      Parameters:
      index - The index at which the new value will be inserted.
      valueBuf - The byte array that contains the data to be inserted.
      start - The start index in the byte array from where the data for the new value begins.
      length - The length of the data in the byte array that belongs to the new value.

      copyFromSafe in interface ValueVector
      Overrides:
      copyFromSafe in class BaseValueVector
      Parameters:

      Retrieves the data of a variable-width element at a given index in the vector.

      If the length of the data is greater than INLINE_SIZE, the data is stored in an inline buffer. The method retrieves the buffer index and data offset from the viewBuffer, and then retrieves the data from the corresponding buffer in the dataBuffers list.

      If the length of the data is less than or equal to INLINE_SIZE, the data is stored directly in the viewBuffer. The method retrieves the data directly from the viewBuffer.

      Parameters:
      index - position of the element in the vector
      Returns:
      byte array containing the data of the element

    • getExportedCDataBufferCount

      public int getExportedCDataBufferCount()
      Retrieves the export buffer count for the C Data Interface.

      For Variadic types, an additional buffer is kept to store the size of each variadic buffer since that information cannot be retrieved in the C Data import.

      In the C Data Interface, the binary view import expects at least three buffers. The variadic size buffer is merely allocated to determine the number of elements per each variadic buffer, and it is not part of the imported data.

      The count is set to 3 + dataBuffers.size(). Three is formed by validity, view, and variadic size buffer.

      Specified by:
      getExportedCDataBufferCount in interface FieldVector
      Returns:
      the number of buffers to be exported

    • exportCDataBuffers

      public void exportCDataBuffers(List<ArrowBuf> buffers, ArrowBuf buffersPtr, long nullValue)
      Get the data buffer of the vector. Note that an additional buffer is appended to store the size of each variadic buffer's size.
      Specified by:
      exportCDataBuffers in interface FieldVector
      Parameters:
      buffers - list of buffers to be exported
      buffersPtr - buffer to store the pointers to the exported buffers
      nullValue - null value
