Detailed Description

An mutable generic System.Object wrapper that can serve as a distributable value for caching.

This class can serialize any class which has either the [Serializable] attribute set or implements System.Runtime.Serialization.ISerializable interface. However, for better efficiency the latter should be avoided and the user should implement ../../IGeodeSerializable instead.

The user must keep in mind that the rules that apply to runtime serialization would be the rules that apply to this class. For the serialization will be carried out by serializing all the members (public/private/protected) of the class. Each of the contained classes should also have either the [Serializable] attribute set or implement ISerializable interface.

Member Function Documentation

Create()

static CacheableObject ^ Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::Create ( Object^  value )

inlinestatic

Static function to create a new instance from the given object.

If the given object is null then this method returns null.

CreateDeserializable()

static IGeodeSerializable ^ Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::CreateDeserializable ( )

inlinestatic

Factory function to register this class.

FromData()

virtual IGeodeSerializable ^ Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::FromData ( DataInput^  input )

virtual

Deserializes the System.Object using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter class.

Parameters

input

the DataInput stream to use for reading the object data

Returns

the deserialized object

Implements Apache::Geode::Client::IGeodeSerializable.

ToData()

virtual void Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::ToData ( DataOutput^  output )

virtual

Serializes this System.Object using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter class.

Parameters

output

the DataOutput object to use for serializing the object

Implements Apache::Geode::Client::IGeodeSerializable.

ToString()

virtual String ^ Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::ToString ( )

inlineoverridevirtual

Return a string representation of the object.

Implements Apache::Geode::Client::IGeodeSerializable.

Property Documentation

ClassId

virtual System:: UInt32 Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::ClassId

get

Returns the classId of the instance being serialized.

This is used by deserialization to determine what instance type to create and deserialize into.

Returns

the classId

ObjectSize

virtual System:: UInt32 Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::ObjectSize

get

return the size of this object in bytes

Value

Object^ Apache::Geode::Client::CacheableObject::Value

get

Gets the object value.

The user can modify the object and the changes shall be reflected immediately in the local cache. For this change to be propagate to other members of the distributed system, the object needs to be put into the cache.
