Interface KeyValidator<K,V>

All Superinterfaces:

java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

EqualKeyValidator

public interface KeyValidator<K,V>
extends java.io.Serializable

A validator used when looking up entries. Given the inputKey, assuming it has a known hash value we will extract an optional key and value, and it's the job of the validator to return the correct value, or null if this was not a known key. For example, the default EqualKeyValidator used by TableWriter just checks that the keys are equal and if so returns the extractedValue.
