## org.apache.hadoop.io.file.tfile
Class Utils.Version

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.hadoop.io.file.tfile.Utils.Version

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Comparable<Utils.Version>

Enclosing class:
  Utils

    public static final class Utils.Version

extends Object
implements Comparable<Utils.Version>

A generic Version class. We suggest applications built on top of TFile use this class to maintain version information in their meta blocks. A version number consists of a major version and a minor version. The suggested usage of major and minor version number is to increment major version number when the new storage format is not backward compatible, and increment the minor version otherwise.

Constructor Summary
`Utils.Version(DataInput in)` Construct the Version object by reading from the input stream.
`Utils.Version(short major, short minor)` Constructor.

Method Summary
`int` | `compareTo(Utils.Version that)` Compare this version with another version.
`boolean` | `compatibleWith(Utils.Version other)` Test compatibility.
`boolean` | `equals(Object other)`
`int` | `getMajor()` Get the major version.
`int` | `getMinor()` Get the minor version.
`int` | `hashCode()`
`static int` | `size()` Get the size of the serialized Version object.
`String` | `toString()` Return a string representation of the version.
`void` | `write(DataOutput out)` Write the objec to a DataOutput.

Constructor Detail

### Utils.Version

    public Utils.Version(DataInput in)
                  throws IOException

  Construct the Version object by reading from the input stream.

  Parameters:
    `in` - input stream
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### Utils.Version

    public Utils.Version(short major,
                         short minor)

  Constructor.

  Parameters:
    `major` - major version.
    `minor` - minor version.

Method Detail

### write

    public void write(DataOutput out)
               throws IOException

  Write the objec to a DataOutput. The serialized format of the Version is major version followed by minor version, both as big-endian short integers.

  Parameters:
    `out` - The DataOutput object.
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### getMajor

    public int getMajor()

  Get the major version.

  Returns:
    Major version.

### getMinor

    public int getMinor()

  Get the minor version.

  Returns:
    The minor version.

### size

    public static int size()

  Get the size of the serialized Version object.

  Returns:
    serialized size of the version object.

### toString

    public String toString()

  Return a string representation of the version.

  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `Object`

### compatibleWith

    public boolean compatibleWith(Utils.Version other)

  Test compatibility.

  Parameters:
    `other` - The Version object to test compatibility with.
  Returns:
    true if both versions have the same major version number; false otherwise.

### compareTo

    public int compareTo(Utils.Version that)

  Compare this version with another version.

  Specified by:
    `compareTo` in interface `Comparable<Utils.Version>`

### equals

    public boolean equals(Object other)

  Overrides:
    `equals` in class `Object`

### hashCode

    public int hashCode()

  Overrides:
    `hashCode` in class `Object`
