Interface IDurableEncoding.Unityped

All Superinterfaces:

IDurableEncoding, IDurableEncoding.List, IDurableEncoding.Map, IDurableEncoding.Primitive, IDurableEncoding.Set

Enclosing interface:

IDurableEncoding

public static interface IDurableEncoding.Unityped
extends IDurableEncoding.Map, IDurableEncoding.Set, IDurableEncoding.List, IDurableEncoding.Primitive

An encoding which is all things to all people. This is possible when a single encoding can handle all primitive values, either because they are consistently typed or a self-describing encoding such as JSON is used.

Method Detail

isSingleton

default boolean isSingleton(Object o)

Description copied from interface: IDurableEncoding

A predicate that allows us to call out values we want to be stored individually. This is useful for any value which we do not intend to compress with neighboring values, which enables lazy decoding. All collections are necessarily singletons.
