All Implemented Interfaces:

public class ColumnPermutedStarTable
extends WrapperStarTable

Wrapper table which provides a view of a base table in which the columns are permuted. Each column in the wrapper table is a view of one in the base table. It is permitted for the wrapper to contain multiple views of the same column in the base, but note that modifying a cell in one of these will modify it in the other.

An int[] array, columnMap, is used to keep track of which columns in this table correspond to which columns in the base table; the n'th column in this table corresponds to the columnMap[n]'th column in the base table. The columnMap array may contain duplicate entries, but all its entries must be in the range 0..baseTable.getColumnCount()-1. This table will have columnMap.length entries.

Constructor Detail

ColumnPermutedStarTable

public ColumnPermutedStarTable(StarTable baseTable,
                               int[] columnMap)
Constructs a new ColumnPermutedStarTable from a base StarTable and a columnMap array.

Parameters:
baseTable - the table on which this one is based
columnMap - array describing where each column of this table comes from in baseTable
Method Detail

getColumnMap

public int[] getColumnMap()
Returns the mapping used to define the permutation of the columns of this table with respect to the base table.

Returns:
column permutation map

setColumnMap

public void setColumnMap(int[] columnMap)
Sets the mapping used to define the permutation of the columns of this table with respect to the base table.

Parameters:
columnMap - column permutation map

getColumnCount

public int getColumnCount()
Description copied from interface: StarTable
Returns the number of columns in this table.

Specified by:
getColumnCount in interface StarTable
Overrides:
getColumnCount in class WrapperStarTable
Returns:
the number of columns

getColumnInfo

public ColumnInfo getColumnInfo(int icol)
Description copied from interface: StarTable
Returns the object describing the data in a given column.

Specified by:
getColumnInfo in interface StarTable
Overrides:
getColumnInfo in class WrapperStarTable
Parameters:
icol - the column for which header information is required
Returns:
a ValueInfo object for column icol

getRowSequence

public RowSequence getRowSequence()
                           throws IOException
Description copied from interface: StarTable
Returns an object which can iterate over all the rows in the table sequentially.

Specified by:
getRowSequence in interface StarTable
Overrides:
getRowSequence in class WrapperStarTable
Returns:
an object providing sequential access to the table data
Throws:
IOException - if there is an error providing access

getCell

public Object getCell(long irow,
                      int icol)
               throws IOException
Description copied from interface: StarTable
Returns the contents of a given table cell. The class of the returned object should be the same as, or a subclass of, the class returned by getColumnInfo(icol).getContentClass().

Specified by:
getCell in interface StarTable
Overrides:
getCell in class WrapperStarTable
Parameters:
irow - the index of the cell's row
icol - the index of the cell's column
Returns:
the contents of this cell
Throws:
IOException - if there is an error reading the data

getRow

public Object[] getRow(long irow)
                throws IOException
Description copied from interface: StarTable
Returns the contents of a given table row. The returned value is equivalent to an array formed of all the objects returned by getCell(irow,icol) for all the columns icol in sequence.

Specified by:
getRow in interface StarTable
Overrides:
getRow in class WrapperStarTable
Parameters:
irow - the index of the row to retrieve
Returns:
an array of the objects in each cell in row irow
Throws:
IOException - if there is an error reading the data
