Class PartitionRegionHelper

  com.gemstone.gemfire.cache.partition.PartitionRegionHelper

public final class PartitionRegionHelper
extends Object

Utility methods for handling partitioned Regions, for example during execution of Functions on a Partitioned Region.

Example of a Function using utility methods:

  public Serializable execute(FunctionContext context) {
     if (context instanceof RegionFunctionContext) {
         RegionFunctionContext rc = (RegionFunctionContext) context;
         if (PartitionRegionHelper.isPartitionedRegion(rc.getDataSet())) {
             Region efficientReader =
              PartitionRegionHelper.getLocalDataForContext(rc);
             efficientReader.get("someKey");
             // ...
         }
      }
  // ...

Method Detail

getColocatedRegions

public static Map<String,Region<?,?>> getColocatedRegions(Region<?,?> r)

Given a partitioned Region, return a map of colocated Regions. Given a local data reference to a partitioned region, return a map of local colocated Regions. If there are no colocated regions, return an empty map.

Parameters:

r - a partitioned Region

Returns:

an unmodifiable map of region name to Region

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the Region is not a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getLocalColocatedRegions

public static Map<String,Region<?,?>> getLocalColocatedRegions(RegionFunctionContext c)

Given a RegionFunctionContext for a partitioned Region, return a map of colocated Regions with read access limited to the context of the function.

Writes using these Region have no constraints and behave the same as a partitioned Region.

If there are no colocated regions, return an empty map.

Parameters:

c - the region function context

Returns:

an unmodifiable map of region name to Region

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the Region is not a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getLocalDataForContext

public static <K,V> Region<K,V> getLocalDataForContext(RegionFunctionContext c)

Given a RegionFunctionContext for a partitioned Region, return a Region providing read access limited to the function context.

Writes using this Region have no constraints and behave the same as a partitioned Region.

Parameters:

c - a functions context

Returns:

a Region for efficient reads

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if RegionFunctionContext.getDataSet() returns something other than a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getLocalData

public static <K,V> Region<K,V> getLocalData(Region<K,V> r)

Given a partitioned Region return a Region providing read access limited to the local heap, writes using this Region have no constraints and behave the same as a partitioned Region.

Parameters:

r - a partitioned region

Returns:

a Region for efficient reads

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the provided region is something other than a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

isPartitionedRegion

public static boolean isPartitionedRegion(Region<?,?> r)

Test a Region to see if it is a partitioned Region

Parameters:

r -

Returns:

true if it is a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getPartitionRegionInfo

public static Set<PartitionRegionInfo> getPartitionRegionInfo(Cache cache)

Gathers a set of details about all partitioned regions in the local Ca@since 6.0che. If there are no partitioned regions then an empty set will be returned.

Parameters:

cache - the cache which has the regions

Returns:

set of details about all locally defined partitioned regions

Since:

6.0

getPartitionRegionInfo

public static PartitionRegionInfo getPartitionRegionInfo(Region<?,?> region)

Gathers details about the specified partitioned region. Returns null if the partitioned region is not locally defined.

Parameters:

region - the region to get info about

Returns:

details about the specified partitioned region

Since:

6.0

assignBucketsToPartitions

public static void assignBucketsToPartitions(Region<?,?> region)

Decide which partitions will host which buckets. Gemfire normally assigns buckets to partitions as needed when data is added to a partitioned region. This method provides way to assign all of the buckets without putting any data in partition region. This method should not be called until all of the partitions are running because it will divide the buckets between the running partitions. If the buckets are already assigned this method will have no effect. This method will block until all buckets are assigned.

Parameters:

region - The region which should have it's buckets assigned.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the provided region is something other than a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getPrimaryMemberForKey

public static <K,V> DistributedMember getPrimaryMemberForKey(Region<K,V> r,
                                                             K key)

Get the current primary owner for a key. Upon return there is no guarantee that primary owner remains the primary owner, or that the member is still alive.

This method is not a substitute for Region.containsKey(Object).

Parameters:

r - a PartitionedRegion

key - the key to evaluate

Returns:

the primary member for the key, possibly null if a primary is not yet determined

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the provided region is something other than a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getRedundantMembersForKey

public static <K,V> Set<DistributedMember> getRedundantMembersForKey(Region<K,V> r,
                                                                     K key)

Get all potential redundant owners for a key. If the key exists in the Region, upon return there is no guarantee that key has not been moved or that the members are still alive.

This method is not a substitute for Region.containsKey(Object).

This method is equivalent to: DistributedMember primary = getPrimaryMemberForKey(r, key); Set allMembers = getAllMembersForKey(r, key); allMembers.remove(primary);

Parameters:

r - a PartitionedRegion

key - the key to evaluate

Returns:

an unmodifiable set of members minus the primary

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the provided region is something other than a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0

getAllMembersForKey

public static <K,V> Set<DistributedMember> getAllMembersForKey(Region<K,V> r,
                                                               K key)

Get all potential owners for a key. If the key exists in the Region, upon return there is no guarantee that it has not moved nor does it guarantee all members are still alive.

This method is not a substitute for Region.containsKey(Object).

Parameters:

r - PartitionedRegion

key - the key to evaluate

Returns:

an unmodifiable set of all members

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the provided region is something other than a partitioned Region

Since:

6.0
