All Implemented Interfaces:
  DataStoreFactory

public class NIODataStoreFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements DataStoreFactory

Builder for a datastore that has no practical file size limit.

This implementation of the data store factory uses longs as indecies internaly, so can be used with files exceeding 2 gigs in size.

The data store file has the following structure.

     file: header, hash table, nameTable, hitTable

     header:
       long hashTablePos, // byte offset in file
       long hitTablePos,  // byte offset in file
       long nameTablePos, // byte offset in file
       int wordLength,
       int serializedPackingLength,
       byte[] serializedPacking

     hashTable:
       long hashTableLength,
       long[hashTableLength] hits // byte offset into hitTable

     nameTable:
       int nameTableSize, // size in bytes
       (short nameLength, char[nameLength] name)[nameTableSize] names

     hitTable:
       long hitTableSize, // size in bytes
       hitTableRecord[hitTableSize] hits

     hitTableRecord:
       int hitCount,
       hitRecord[hitCount] hit

     hit:
       long seqOffset, // byte offset into sequence names table
       int pos         // biological position in sequence

Method Detail

### getDataStore

    public DataStore getDataStore(java.io.File storeFile)
                           throws java.io.IOException

  Description copied from interface: `DataStoreFactory`
  Get a pre-built data store associated with a file.

  Specified by:
    `getDataStore` in interface `DataStoreFactory`
  Parameters:
    `storeFile` - the File to map in as a data store
  Returns:
    the DataStore made by mapping the file
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException` - if the file could not be mapped

### buildDataStore

    public DataStore buildDataStore(java.io.File storeFile,
                                    SequenceDB seqDB,
                                    Packing packing,
                                    int wordLength,
                                    int threshold)
                             throws IllegalAlphabetException,
                                    java.io.IOException,
                                    BioException

  Description copied from interface: `DataStoreFactory`
  Build a new DataStore.

  Specified by:
    `buildDataStore` in interface `DataStoreFactory`
  Parameters:
    `storeFile` - the file to store the data store
    `seqDB` - the SequenceDB to store in the data store
    `packing` - the Packing used to bit-encode the sequences
    `wordLength` - the number of symbols per word
    `threshold` - the number of times a word must appear to be ignored
  Throws:
    `IllegalAlphabetException` - if the packing does not agree with the sequences
    `BioException` - if there is a problem building the data store
    `java.io.IOException`
