All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class DateFieldType
extends FudgeFieldType<FudgeDate>

The type definition for a date. This is currently backed by a FudgeDate. The secondary type mechanism is used to support additional Java representations, such as Date, Calendar and javax.time classes.

Method Detail

readValue

public FudgeDate readValue(DataInput input,
                           int dataSize)
                    throws IOException

Reads a value of this type to the output.

This is intended for use by variable width types and must read the given value. The implementation must read exactly the number of bytes passed into the method.

Overrides:

readValue in class FudgeFieldType<FudgeDate>

Parameters:

input - the input source to read the value from, not null

dataSize - the number of bytes of data to read

Returns:

the value that was read

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs, which must be wrapped by the caller

writeValue

public void writeValue(DataOutput output,
                       FudgeDate value)
                throws IOException

Writes a value of this type to the output.

This is intended for use by variable width types and must write the given value. The implementation must write exactly the number of bytes returned by the size calculation.

Overrides:

writeValue in class FudgeFieldType<FudgeDate>

Parameters:

output - the output target to write the value to, not null

value - the value to write

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs, which must be wrapped by the caller
