Class ColumnMetadata

java.lang.Object

prefuse.data.column.ColumnMetadata

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.EventListener, ColumnListener

public class ColumnMetadata
extends java.lang.Object
implements ColumnListener

ColumnMetadata stores computed metadata and statistics for a singe column instance. They are created automatically by Table instances and are retrieved using the Table.getMetadata(String) method.

Constructor Detail

ColumnMetadata

public ColumnMetadata(Table table,
                      java.lang.String column)

Creates a new ColumnMetadata instance.

Parameters:

table - the backing table

column - the name of the column to store metadata for

ColumnMetadata

public ColumnMetadata(Table table,
                      java.lang.String column,
                      java.util.Comparator cmp,
                      boolean dynamic)

Creates a new ColumnMetadata instance.

Parameters:

table - the backing table

column - the name of the column to store metadata for

cmp - a Comparator that determines the default sort order for values in the column

dynamic - indicates if this ColumnMetadata should react to changes in the underlying table values. If true, computed values stored in this metadata object will be invalidated when updates to the column data occur.

Method Detail

dispose

public void dispose()

Dispose of this metadata, freeing any resources and unregistering any listeners.

calculateValues

public void calculateValues()

Re-calculates all the metadata and statistics maintained by this object.

getComparator

public java.util.Comparator getComparator()

Returns the comparator used to determine column values' sort order.

Returns:

the Comparator

setComparator

public void setComparator(java.util.Comparator c)

Sets the comparator used to detemine column values' sort order.

Parameters:

c - the Comparator to use

getDefaultValue

public java.lang.Object getDefaultValue()

Get the columns' default value.

Returns:

the column's default value

getMinimumRow

public int getMinimumRow()

Get the row index of the minimum column value. If there are multiple minima, only one is returned.

Returns:

the row index of the minimum column value.

getMaximumRow

public int getMaximumRow()

Get the row index of the maximum column value. If there are multiple maxima, only one is returned.

Returns:

the row index of the maximum column value.

getMedianRow

public int getMedianRow()

Get the row index of the median column value.

Returns:

the row index of the median column value

getUniqueCount

public int getUniqueCount()

Get the number of unique values in the column.

Returns:

the number of unique values in the column

getMean

public double getMean()

Get the mean value of numeric values in the column. If this column does not contain numeric values, this method will result in an exception being thrown.

Returns:

the mean of numeric values in the column

getDeviation

public double getDeviation()

Get the standard deviation of numeric values in the column. If this column does not contain numeric values, this method will result in an exception being thrown.

Returns:

the standard deviation of numeric values in the column

getSum

public double getSum()

Get the sum of numeric values in the column. If this column does not contain numeric values, this method will result in an exception being thrown.

Returns:

the sum of numeric values in the column

getOrdinalArray

public java.lang.Object[] getOrdinalArray()

Get an array of all unique column values, in sorted order.

Returns:

an array of all unique column values, in sorted order.

getOrdinalMap

public java.util.Map getOrdinalMap()

Get a map between all unique column values and their integer index in the sort order of those values. For example, the minimum value maps to 0, the next greater value to 1, etc.

Returns:

a map between all unique column values and their integer index in the values' sort order
