Class PairOfStringFloat

java.lang.Object
  edu.umd.cloud9.io.pair.PairOfStringFloat

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<PairOfStringFloat>, Writable, WritableComparable<PairOfStringFloat>

public class PairOfStringFloat
extends Object
implements WritableComparable<PairOfStringFloat>

WritableComparable representing a pair consisting of a String and a float. The elements in the pair are referred to as the left and right elements. The natural sort order is: first by the left element, and then by the right element.

PairOfStringFloat

public PairOfStringFloat(String left,
                         float right)

Creates a pair.

Parameters:

left - the left element

right - the right element

Method Detail

readFields

public void readFields(DataInput in)
                throws IOException

Deserializes the pair.

Specified by:

readFields in interface Writable

Parameters:

           throws IOException

Serializes this pair.

Specified by:

write in interface Writable

Parameters:

out - where to write the raw byte representation

Throws:

IOException

getLeftElement

public String getLeftElement()

Returns the left element.

Returns:

the left element

getRightElement

public float getRightElement()

Returns the right element.

Returns:

the right element

getKey

public String getKey()
