Detailed Description

Produces and initializes UDParsers to parse input into tuples.

Note that ParserFactories are singletons. Subclasses should be stateless, with no fields containing data, just methods. plan() and prepare() methods must never modify any global variables or state; they may only modify the variables that they are given as arguments.

void com.vertica.sdk.ParserFactory.getParameterType	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		SizedColumnTypes	parameterTypes
	)

Inherited from the parent "UDXFactory" class in VerticaUDx.h

void com.vertica.sdk.ParserFactory.getParserReturnType	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		PerColumnParamReader	perColumnParamReader,
		PlanContext	planCtxt,
		SizedColumnTypes	argTypes,
		SizedColumnTypes	returnType
	)		throws UdfException

Function to tell Vertica what the return types (and length/precision if necessary) of this UDX are. Called, possibly multiple times, on each node executing the query.

The default provided implementation configures Vertica to use the same output column types as the destination table. This requires that the UDParser validate the expected output column types and emit appropriate tuples.

Note that the default provided implementation of this function should be sufficient for most Parsers, so this method should not be overridden by most Parser implementations.

If a COPY statement has a return type that doesn't match the destination table, Vertica will emit an appropriate error. Users can use COPY expressions to perform typecasting and conversion if necessary.

For CHAR/VARCHAR types, specify the max length,

For Time/Timestamp types (with or without time zone), specify the precision, -1 means unspecified/don't care

For all other types, no length/precision specification needed

Parameters

srvInterface	Interface to server operations and functionality, including (not-per-column) parameter lookup
perColumnParamReader	Per-column parameters passed into the query
planCtxt	Context for storing and retrieving arbitrary data, for use just by this instance of this query. The same context is shared with plan().
argTypes	Provides the data types of arguments that this UDT was called with. This may be used to modify the return types accordingly.
returnType	User code must fill in the names and data types returned by the UDT.

Exceptions

UdfException UDF problem

void com.vertica.sdk.UDLFactory.getPerInstanceResources	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		VResources	res,
		SizedColumnTypes	argTypes
	)

inherited

Set the resource required for each instance of the UDX Object subclass

Parameters

srvInterface	a ServerInterface object used to communicate with Vertica
res	a VResources object used to tell Vertica what resources are needed by the UDX
argTypes	Provides the data types of arguments that this UDx was called with. This may be used to calculate the resources required by the UDx.

void com.vertica.sdk.UDLFactory.getPrototype	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		ColumnTypes	argTypes,
		ColumnTypes	returnType
	)

inherited

Provides the argument and return types of the UDL. UDL's take no input tuples; as such, their prototype is empty.

void com.vertica.sdk.UDLFactory.getReturnType	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		SizedColumnTypes	argTypes,
		SizedColumnTypes	returnType
	)

inherited

Not used in this form

void com.vertica.sdk.ParserFactory.plan	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		PerColumnParamReader	perColumnParamReader,
		PlanContext	planCtxt
	)		throws UdfException

Execute any planning logic required at query plan time. This method is run once per query, during query initialization. Its job is to perform parameter validation, and to modify the set of nodes that the COPY statement will run on (through srvInterface).

plan() runs exactly once per query, on the initiator node. If it throws an exception, the query will not proceed; it will be aborted prior to distributing the query to the other nodes and running prepare().

Parameters

srvInterface	Interface to server operations and functionality, including (not-per-column) parameter lookup
perColumnParamReader	Per-column parameters passed into the query
planCtxt	Context for storing and retrieving arbitrary data, for use just by this instance of this query. The same context is shared with plan().

Exceptions

UdfException UDF problem

abstract UDParser com.vertica.sdk.ParserFactory.prepare	(	ServerInterface	srvInterface,
		PerColumnParamReader	perColumnParamReader,
		PlanContext	planCtxt,
		SizedColumnTypes	returnType
	)		throws UdfException

abstract

Instantiate a UDParser instance. This function will be called on each node, prior to the Load operator starting to execute.

Parameters

srvInterface	Interface to server operations and functionality, including (not-per-column) parameter lookup
perColumnParamReader	Per-column parameters passed into the query
planCtxt	Context for storing and retrieving arbitrary data, for use just by this instance of this query. The same context is shared with plan().
returnType	The data types of the columns that this Parser must produce

Returns: The UDParser instance to be used by this query

Exceptions

UdfException UDF problem
