    - #### getComponents

A comparator cn should be compatible with a previous one cp if forall columns c1 and c2, if cn.validate(c1) and cn.validate(c2) and cn.compare(c1, c2) == v, then cp.validate(c1) and cp.validate(c2) and cp.compare(c1, c2) == v. Note that a type should be compatible with at least itself and when in doubt, keep the default behavior of not being compatible with any other comparator!
      Overrides:
        `isCompatibleWith` in class `AbstractType<java.nio.ByteBuffer>`

    - #### isValueCompatibleWithInternal

          public boolean isValueCompatibleWithInternal(AbstractType<?> otherType)

          public java.lang.String toString()

      Description copied from class: `AbstractType`
      This must be overriden by subclasses if necessary so that for any AbstractType, this == TypeParser.parse(toString()). Note that for backwards compatibility this includes the full classname. For CQL purposes the short name is fine.
      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `AbstractType<java.nio.ByteBuffer>`

    - #### builder
