Coder

public Coder(int maxCodewordLength)

Method Details

encode

public long encode(long symbol)

Description copied from interface: Codec.Coder

Returns the codeword associated with a symbol, or −1 if the provided symbol should be escaped.

If a symbol needs to be escaped, it must be encoded using the escape codeword followed by the symbol written in a field of Codec.Coder.escapedSymbolLength() bits.

Specified by:

encode in interface Codec.Coder

Parameters:

symbol - a symbol.

Returns:

the associated codeword.

codewordLength

public int codewordLength(long symbol)

Description copied from interface: Codec.Coder

Returns the length of the codeword associated with the given symbol.

For escaped symbols, the returned values is the length of the escape codeword plus Codec.Coder.escapedSymbolLength().

Specified by:

codewordLength in interface Codec.Coder

Parameters:

symbol - a symbol provided at construction time.

Returns:

the length of the codeword associated with the given symbol.

maxCodewordLength

public int maxCodewordLength()

Description copied from interface: Codec.Coder

Returns the maximum length of a codeword (including escaped symbols).

Specified by:

maxCodewordLength in interface Codec.Coder

Returns:

the maximum length of a codeword (including escaped symbols).

getDecoder

public Codec.Gamma.Coder.Decoder getDecoder()

Description copied from interface: Codec.Coder

Return a decoder associated with this coder.

Specified by:

getDecoder in interface Codec.Coder

Returns:

a decoder associated with this coder.
