Detailed Description

abstract base class for hash iterator mappping classes based on a mapper object and an iterator input source

Member Function Documentation

constructor()

Mapper::AbstractMapperIterator::constructor

(

Qore::AbstractIterator

iter

)

creates the iterator from the arguments passed

Parameters

iter	input iterator; AbstractIterator::getValue() must return a hash

mapBulk()

list< hash > Mapper::AbstractMapperIterator::mapBulk

(

int

size

)

performs bulk mapping; if the iterator does not support bulk mapping then it is simulated in this method

Parameters

size	the number of rows to return

Returns

a list of mapped hashes with a maximum number of rows corresponding to the size argument; in case there is less input data than requested, the list returned could have fewer rows than requested; in case there is no more data, the return value is an empty list
