Field Detail

• HASH_MULT

  public static final int HASH_MULT

  See Also:

  Constant Field Values

• DEFAULT_TABLE_SIZE

  protected static final int DEFAULT_TABLE_SIZE

  Default initial table size. Shouldn't be miniscule (as there's cost to both array realloc and rehashing), but let's keep it reasonably small nonetheless. For systems that properly reuse factories it doesn't matter either way; but when recreating factories often, initial overhead may dominate.

  Constant Field Values

• MAX_TABLE_SIZE

  protected static final int MAX_TABLE_SIZE

  Let's not expand symbol tables past some maximum size; this should protected against OOMEs caused by large documents with uniquer (~= random) names.

  See Also:

  Constant Field Values

• _parent

  protected CharsToNameCanonicalizer _parent

  Sharing of learnt symbols is done by optional linking of symbol table instances with their parents. When parent linkage is defined, and child instance is released (call to release), parent's shared tables may be updated from the child instance.

• _intern

  protected final boolean _intern

  Whether canonical symbol Strings are to be intern()ed before added to the table or not

• _canonicalize

  protected final boolean _canonicalize

  Whether any canonicalization should be attempted (whether using intern or not)

• _symbols

  protected String[] _symbols

  Primary matching symbols; it's expected most match occur from here.

• _buckets

  protected com.fasterxml.jackson.core.sym.CharsToNameCanonicalizer.Bucket[] _buckets

  Overflow buckets; if primary doesn't match, lookup is done from here.

  Note: Number of buckets is half of number of symbol entries, on assumption there's less need for buckets.

• _size

  protected int _size

  Current size (number of entries); needed to know if and when rehash.

• _sizeThreshold

  protected int _sizeThreshold

  Limit that indicates maximum size this instance can hold before it needs to be expanded and rehashed. Calculated using fill factor passed in to constructor.

• _indexMask

  protected int _indexMask

  Mask used to get index from hash values; equal to _buckets.length - 1, when _buckets.length is a power of two.

• _longestCollisionList

  protected int _longestCollisionList

  We need to keep track of the longest collision list; this is needed both to indicate problems with attacks and to allow flushing for other cases.

  Since:

  2.1

• _dirty

  protected boolean _dirty

  Flag that indicates if any changes have been made to the data; used to both determine if bucket array needs to be copied when (first) change is made, and potentially if updated bucket list is to be resync'ed back to master instance.

Method Detail

• createRoot

  public static CharsToNameCanonicalizer createRoot()

  Method called to create root canonicalizer for a JsonFactory instance. Root instance is never used directly; its main use is for storing and sharing underlying symbol arrays as needed.

• createRoot

  protected static CharsToNameCanonicalizer createRoot(int hashSeed)

• makeChild

  public CharsToNameCanonicalizer makeChild(boolean canonicalize,
                                   boolean intern)

  "Factory" method; will create a new child instance of this symbol table. It will be a copy-on-write instance, ie. it will only use read-only copy of parent's data, but when changes are needed, a copy will be created.

  Note: while this method is synchronized, it is generally not safe to both use makeChild/mergeChild, AND to use instance actively. Instead, a separate 'root' instance should be used on which only makeChild/mergeChild are called, but instance itself is not used as a symbol table.

• release

  public void release()

• size

  public int size()

• bucketCount

  public int bucketCount()

  Method for checking number of primary hash buckets this symbol table uses.

  Since:

  2.1

• maybeDirty

  public boolean maybeDirty()

• hashSeed

  public int hashSeed()

• collisionCount

  public int collisionCount()

  Method mostly needed by unit tests; calculates number of entries that are in collision list. Value can be at most (size() - 1), but should usually be much lower, ideally 0.

  Since:

  2.1

• maxCollisionLength

  public int maxCollisionLength()

  Method mostly needed by unit tests; calculates length of the longest collision chain. This should typically be a low number, but may be up to size() - 1 in the pathological case

  Since:

  2.1

• findSymbol

  public String findSymbol(char[] buffer,
                  int start,
                  int len,
                  int h)

• _hashToIndex

  public int _hashToIndex(int rawHash)

  Helper method that takes in a "raw" hash value, shuffles it as necessary, and truncates to be used as the index.

• calcHash

  public int calcHash(char[] buffer,
             int start,
             int len)

  Implementation of a hashing method for variable length Strings. Most of the time intention is that this calculation is done by caller during parsing, not here; however, sometimes it needs to be done for parsed "String" too.

  Parameters:

  len - Length of String; has to be at least 1 (caller guarantees this pre-condition)

• calcHash

  public int calcHash(String key)

• reportTooManyCollisions

  protected void reportTooManyCollisions(int maxLen)

  Since:

  2.1
