Interface ClientKeyBlock

All Known Implementing Classes:

ClientCHKBlock, ClientSSKBlock

public interface ClientKeyBlock

A KeyBlock with a ClientKey. Can be decoded. Not a child of KeyBlock because of issues with equals().

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Bucket	decode(BucketFactory factory, int maxLength, boolean dontDecompress) Decode with the key
boolean	equals(java.lang.Object o) This is why ClientKeyBlock isn't instanceof KeyBlock: Two ClientKeyBlock's with the same content but different keys are not equals(), therefore a ClientKeyBlock and its KeyBlock have to be !equals too.
KeyBlock	getBlock()
ClientKey	getClientKey()
Key	getKey()
int	hashCode() Please be consistent with equals()
boolean	isMetadata() Does the block contain metadata? If not, it contains real data.
byte[]	memoryDecode()

Method Detail

decode

Bucket decode(BucketFactory factory,
              int maxLength,
              boolean dontDecompress)
       throws KeyDecodeException,
              java.io.IOException

Decode with the key

Parameters:

factory - The BucketFactory to use to create the Bucket to return the data in.

maxLength - The maximum size of the returned data in bytes.

Throws:

KeyDecodeException

java.io.IOException

isMetadata

boolean isMetadata()

Does the block contain metadata? If not, it contains real data.

getClientKey

ClientKey getClientKey()

Returns:

The ClientKey for this key.

memoryDecode

byte[] memoryDecode()
             throws KeyDecodeException

Throws:

KeyDecodeException

getBlock

KeyBlock getBlock()

Returns:

The underlying KeyBlock.

getKey

Key getKey()

Returns:

The low-level Key for the block.

equals

boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

This is why ClientKeyBlock isn't instanceof KeyBlock: Two ClientKeyBlock's with the same content but different keys are not equals(), therefore a ClientKeyBlock and its KeyBlock have to be !equals too. Hence it's really a different kind of object, so not a child.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

hashCode

int hashCode()

Please be consistent with equals()

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object
