Package org.apache.arrow.algorithm.sort

Class GeneralOutOfPlaceVectorSorter<V extends ValueVector>

java.lang.Object

org.apache.arrow.algorithm.sort.GeneralOutOfPlaceVectorSorter<V>

Type Parameters:

V - vector type.

All Implemented Interfaces:

OutOfPlaceVectorSorter<V>

public class GeneralOutOfPlaceVectorSorter<V extends ValueVector>
extends Object
implements OutOfPlaceVectorSorter<V>

An out-of-place sorter for vectors of arbitrary type, with time complexity O(n*log(n)). Since it does not make any assumptions about the memory layout of the vector, its performance can be sub-optimal. So if another sorter is applicable (FixedWidthInPlaceVectorSorter), it should be used in preference.
