public class MatrixCursor.RowBuilder
extends Object



Builds a row of values using either of these approaches:

  • Values can be added with explicit column ordering using add(Object), which starts from the left-most column and adds one column value at a time. This follows the same ordering as the column names specified at cursor construction time.
  • Column and value pairs can be offered for possible inclusion using add(String,Object). If the cursor includes the given column, the value will be set for that column, otherwise the value is ignored. This approach is useful when matching data to a custom projection.

Undefined values are left as null.

Summary

Public methods

Offer value for possible inclusion if this cursor defines the given column.

From class java.lang.Object

Object clone()

Creates and returns a copy of this object.

boolean equals(Object obj)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

void finalize()

final Class<?> getClass()

Returns the runtime class of this Object.

int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

final void notify()

Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.

final void notifyAll()

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.

String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object.

final void wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
