Enum TdbSortMergeType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<TdbSortMergeType>

    public enum TdbSortMergeType
    extends java.lang.Enum<TdbSortMergeType>
    Used with the TdbRecordSet and TdbSearchSet classes to indicate how a sorted cluster search should be treated.
    Since:
    TRIPjxp v8.1-2

      Use a TRIPsystem-determined backward compatible default.
      Merge
      Combine records from each database in the cluster into a single, merged search result.
      NoMerge
      Keep records from each database in the cluster separate in the sorted search result.

      • Default

        public static final TdbSortMergeType Default
        Use a TRIPsystem-determined backward compatible default.

        The base default is determined by the CCL DEFINE [NO] MERGE in TRIPsystem, where NO MERGE is used unless otherwise stated. There is, when using TRIPjxp, for backward-compatibility purposes a secondary condtion that will override this by always using MERGE if sorting a query executed at the same time as the data retrieval request.

        Applications should therefore explicitly use 'Merge' or 'NoMerge' when sorting a database cluster in order to obtain the desired sort order instead of relying on TRIPsystem default.

      • Merge

        public static final TdbSortMergeType Merge
        Combine records from each database in the cluster into a single, merged search result.
      • NoMerge

        public static final TdbSortMergeType NoMerge
        Keep records from each database in the cluster separate in the sorted search result.

      • values

        public static TdbSortMergeType[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
        for (TdbSortMergeType c : TdbSortMergeType.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static TdbSortMergeType valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
