In the prior Basic example, bindings and Java collections were
|
||||
created for accessing databases via their primary keys. In this
|
||||
example, bindings and collections are added for accessing the same
|
||||
databases via their index keys. As in the prior example, serial
|
||||
bindings and the Java
|
||||
<a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Map.html" target="_top">Map</a>
|
||||
|
||||
class are used.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
When a map is created from a
|
||||
|
||||
<span>
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/SecondaryDatabase.html" target="_top">SecondaryDatabase</a>,
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
the keys of the map will be the index keys. However, the values of
|
||||
the map will be the values of the primary database associated with
|
||||
the index. This is how index keys can be used to access the values
|
||||
in a primary database.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For example, the Supplier's City field is an index key that can
|
||||
be used to access the Supplier database. When a map is created
|
||||
using the <tt class="methodname">supplierByCityDb()</tt> method, the key to the map will be the
|
||||
City field, a
|
||||
<a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/String.html" target="_top">String</a>
|
||||
|
||||
object. When
|
||||
<a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Map.html#get" target="_top">Map.get</a>
|
||||
|
||||
is called passing the City as the key parameter, a
|
||||
<tt class="classname">SupplierData</tt>
|
||||
object will be returned.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The <tt class="classname">SampleViews</tt> class is extended to create an index key
|
||||
binding for the Supplier's City field and three Java maps based on
|
||||
the three indices created in the prior section.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||

|

supplierKeyBinding, shipmentValueBinding, true); </tt></b>
|

...
|

}
|

} </pre>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In general, the indexed maps are created here in the same way as
|
||||
the unindexed maps were created in the Basic example. The
|
||||
differences are:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<div class="itemizedlist">
|
||||
<ul type="disc">
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The first parameter of the
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/StoredMap.html" target="_top">StoredMap</a>
|
||||
|
||||
constructor is a
|
||||
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/SecondaryDatabase.html" target="_top">SecondaryDatabase</a>
|
||||
|
||||
rather than a
|
||||
|
||||
<span>
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/Database.html" target="_top">Database</a>.
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The second parameter is the index key binding rather than the
|
||||
primary key binding.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For the <tt class="literal">supplierByCityMap</tt>, the <tt class="literal">cityKeyBinding</tt> must
|
||||
first be created. This binding was not created in the Basic example
|
||||
because the City field is not a primary key.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Like the bindings created earlier for keys and values, the
|
||||
<tt class="literal">cityKeyBinding</tt> is a
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/bind/serial/SerialBinding.html" target="_top">SerialBinding</a>.
|
||||
Unlike the bindings created earlier, it is an example of creating a
|
||||
binding for a built-in Java class,
|
||||
<a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/String.html" target="_top">String</a>,
|
||||
instead of an application-defined class. Any serializable class may
|
||||
be used.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For the <tt class="literal">shipmentByPartMap</tt> and
|
||||
<tt class="literal">shipmentBySupplierMap</tt>, the <tt class="literal">partKeyBinding</tt> and
|
||||
<tt class="literal">supplierKeyBinding</tt> are used. These were created in the Basic
|
||||
example and used as the primary key bindings for the <tt class="literal">partMap</tt>
|
||||
and <tt class="literal">supplierMap</tt>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The value bindings — <tt class="literal">supplierValueBinding</tt> and
|
||||
<tt class="literal">shipmentValueBinding</tt> — were also created in the Basic
|
||||
example.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
This illustrates that bindings and formats may and should be
|
||||
reused where appropriate for creating maps and other
|
||||
collections.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The following getter methods return the stored maps for use by
|
||||
other classes in the example program. Convenience methods for
|
||||
returning entry sets are also included.
