Chronicle-Bytes

Chronicle Bytes contains all the low level memory access wrappers. It is built on Chronicle Core’s direct memory and OS system call access.

Chronicle Bytes has a similar purpose to Java NIO’s ByteBuffer with some extensions.

The API supports.

64-bit sizes
UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoded strings.
thread safe off heap memory operations.
deterministic release of resources via reference counting.
compressed data types such as stop bit encoding.
elastic ByteBuffer wrappers which resize as required.
parsing text and writing text directly to off heap bytes.

Creating Bytes

Bytes which wraps an on heap ByteBuffer

Bytes<ByteBuffer> bytes = Bytes.elasticHeapByteBuffer(64);
ByteBuffer bb = bytes.underlyingObject();

Bytes which wraps a direct ByteBuffer

Bytes<ByteBuffer> bytes = Bytes.elasticByteBuffer(64);
ByteBuffer bb = bytes.underlyingObject();

Bytes which wraps some native memory

Bytes bytes = Bytes.allocateElasticDirect(64);
long address = bytes.address
bytes.releaseLast(); // when it can be freed.

Bytes which will wrap some native memory when used

Bytes bytes = Bytes.allocateElasticDirect();
// use the bytes
bytes.releaseLast(); // when it can be freed.

Flipping Bytes

ByteBuffer needs to be flipped to switch between reading and writing.

Bytes holds a read position and a write position allowing you to write and immediately read without flipping.

Note	The writePosition is the readLimit.

Writing to a Hexadecimal dump

Writing to a hexadecimal dump is useful for documenting the format for messages written. We have used the hexadecimal dump here.

Writing primitives as binary and dumping

// only used for documentation
HexDumpBytes bytes = new HexDumpBytes();
bytes.comment("true").writeBoolean(true);
bytes.comment("s8").writeByte((byte) 1);
bytes.comment("u8").writeUnsignedByte(2);
bytes.comment("s16").writeShort((short) 3);
bytes.comment("u16").writeUnsignedShort(4);
bytes.comment("char").writeUnsignedShort('5'); // char
bytes.comment("s24").writeInt24(-6_666_666);
bytes.comment("u24").writeUnsignedInt24(16_666_666);
bytes.comment("s32").writeInt(6);
bytes.comment("u32").writeUnsignedShort(7);
bytes.comment("s64").writeLong(8);
bytes.comment("f32").writeFloat(9);
bytes.comment("f64").writeDouble(10);

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

prints

59                                              # true
01                                              # s8

08 00 00 00 00 00 00 00                         # s64

00 00 00 00 00 00 24 40                         # f64

to read this data you can use

Reading the primitive values above

boolean flag = bytes.readBoolean();
byte s8 = bytes.readByte();
int u8 = bytes.readUnsignedByte();
short s16 = bytes.readShort();
int u16 = bytes.readUnsignedShort();
char ch = bytes.readStopBitChar();
int s24 = bytes.readInt24();
long u24 = bytes.readUnsignedInt24();
int s32 = bytes.readInt();
long u32 = bytes.readUnsignedInt();
long s64 = bytes.readLong();
float f32 = bytes.readFloat();
double f64 = bytes.readDouble();

Writing and reading using offsets

Instead of streaming the data, sometimes you need to control the placement of data, possibly at random.

Write and read primitive by offset

Bytes<ByteBuffer> bytes = Bytes.elasticHeapByteBuffer(64);
bytes.writeBoolean(0, true);
bytes.writeByte(1, (byte) 1);
bytes.writeUnsignedByte(2, 2);
bytes.writeShort(3, (short) 3);
bytes.writeUnsignedShort(5, 4);
bytes.writeInt(7, 6);
bytes.writeUnsignedInt(11, 7);
bytes.writeLong(15, 8);
bytes.writeFloat(23, 9);
bytes.writeDouble(27, 10);
bytes.writePosition(35);

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

boolean flag = bytes.readBoolean(0);
byte s8 = bytes.readByte(1);
int u8 = bytes.readUnsignedByte(2);
short s16 = bytes.readShort(3);
int u16 = bytes.readUnsignedShort(5);
int s32 = bytes.readInt(7);
long u32 = bytes.readUnsignedInt(11);
long s64 = bytes.readLong(15);
float f32 = bytes.readFloat(23);
double f64 = bytes.readDouble(27);

prints

00000000 59 01 02 03 00 04 00 06  00 00 00 07 00 00 00 08 Y······· ········
00000010 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 10 41 00 00 00 00 00 ········ ··A·····
00000020 00 24 40                                         ·$@

Note	While HexDumpBytes supports the offset methods, you need to provide the offset in binary and the dump making it more complex to use.

Volatile read and ordered write

Chronicle Bytes supports variants of the write primitives which have a store barrier writeOrderedXxxx, and reads with a load barrier readVolatileXxxx

Note	write ordered doesn’t stall the pipeline to wait for the write to occur, making it possible for a single thread to read an old value after the ordered write.

Working wth text

You can also write and read text to Bytes for low level, direct to native memory text processing.

Writing primitives as text

Bytes<ByteBuffer> bytes = Bytes.elasticHeapByteBuffer(64);
bytes.append(true).append('\n');
bytes.append(1).append('\n');
bytes.append(2L).append('\n');
bytes.append('3').append('\n');
bytes.append(4.1f).append('\n');
bytes.append(5.2).append('\n');
bytes.append(6.2999999, 3).append('\n');

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

prints

00000000 54 0a 31 0a 32 0a 33 0a  34 2e 31 0a 35 2e 32 0a T·1·2·3· 4.1·5.2·
00000010 36 2e 33 30 30 0a                                6.300·

Reading primitives as text

boolean flag = bytes.parseBoolean();
int s32 = bytes.parseInt();
long s64 = bytes.parseLong();
String ch = bytes.parseUtf8(StopCharTesters.SPACE_STOP);
float f32 = bytes.parseFloat();
double f64 = bytes.parseDouble();
double f64b = bytes.parseDouble();

Note	There are less methods for text as 8, 16 and 24 bit can use methods for `int`, Unsigned int can use the `long` method.

Reading and Writing Strings

Chronicle Bytes supports two encodings, ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8. It also supports writing these as binary with a length prefix, and a string which should be terminated. Bytes expects Strings to be read to a buffer for further processing, possibly with a String pool.

HexDumpBytes bytes = new HexDumpBytes();
bytes.comment("write8bit").write8bit("£ 1");
bytes.comment("writeUtf8").writeUtf8("£ 1");
bytes.comment("append8bit").append8bit("£ 1").append('\n');
bytes.comment("appendUtf8").appendUtf8("£ 1").append('\n');

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

prints

03 a3 20 31                                     # write8bit
04 c2 a3 20 31                                  # writeUtf8
a3 20 31 0a                                     # append8bit
c2 a3 20 31 0a                                  # appendUtf8

String a = bytes.read8bit();
String b = bytes.readUtf8();
String c = bytes.parse8bit(StopCharTesters.CONTROL_STOP);
String d = bytes.parseUtf8(StopCharTesters.CONTROL_STOP);

Binary strings are prefixed with a Stop Bit Encoded length.

HexDumpBytes bytes = new HexDumpBytes();
bytes.comment("write8bit").write8bit((String) null);
bytes.comment("writeUtf8").writeUtf8(null);

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

String a = bytes.read8bit();
String b = bytes.readUtf8();
assertEquals(null, a);
assertEquals(null, b);

prints

80 00                                           # write8bit
80 00                                           # writeUtf8

Note	`80 00` is the stop bit encoding for `-1` or `~0`

Compare and Set operation

In binary, you can atomically replace an int or long on condition that it is an expected value.

Write two fields, remember where the int and long are

HexDumpBytes bytes = new HexDumpBytes();

bytes.comment("s32").writeUtf8("s32");
long s32 = bytes.writePosition();
bytes.writeInt(0);

bytes.comment("s64").writeUtf8("s64");
long s64 = bytes.writePosition();
bytes.writeLong(0);

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

prints

03 73 33 32 00 00 00 00                         # s32
03 73 36 34 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00             # s64

CAS two fields

assertTrue(bytes.compareAndSwapInt(s32, 0, Integer.MAX_VALUE));
assertTrue(bytes.compareAndSwapLong(s64, 0, Long.MAX_VALUE));

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

prints

03 73 33 32 ff ff ff 7f                         # s32
03 73 36 34 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 7f             # s64

INFO: You might wonder, how is the hex dump updated as well as the binary? The readPosition actually holds the write position for both, which is why it has to be computed in this case.

Stop bit compression

Stop Bit encoding is one form of simple compression. For each 7 bits set, a byte is used with the high bit set when there is another byte to write.

See Stop Bit Encoding RFC for more details

Writing with stop bit encoding

HexDumpBytes bytes = new HexDumpBytes();

for (long i : new long[]{
        0, -1,
        127, -127,
        128, -128,
        1 << 14, 1 << 21,
        1 << 28, 1L << 35,
        1L << 42, 1L << 49,
        1L << 56, Long.MAX_VALUE,
        Long.MIN_VALUE}) {
    bytes.comment(i + "L").writeStopBit(i);
}

for (double d : new double[]{
        0.0,
        -0.0,
        1.0,
        1.0625,
        -128,
        -Double.MIN_NORMAL,
        Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY,
        Double.NaN,
        Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY}) {
    bytes.comment(d + "").writeStopBit(d);
}

System.out.println(bytes.toHexString());

prints

To read these you need either long x = bytes.readStopBit() or double d = bytes.readStopBitDouble()

BytesMarshallable objects

Chronicle Bytes supports serializing simple objects where the type is not stored. This is similar to`RawWire` in Chronicle Wire.

bytes.comment("mn2").writeUnsignedByte(2);
mn2.writeMarshallable(bytes);

Data driven tests

The purpose of a Lambda function is to create a simple, highly reproducible, easily testable component.

Once you have your data dumped as hexadecimal, you can create tests using that data, and make variations of those tests.

What do we mean by a Lambda function?

In this context a Lambda function is one which is entirely input driven and produces a list of messages (one or more outputs).

The simplest Lambda function is stateless, however this has limited application. They are useful for message translation.

If you need a stateful Lambda function, you can consider the input to the function to be every message it has ever consumed. Obviously this is inefficient, however with appropriate caches in your lamdba function, you can process and produce result incrementally.

Data in and out.

We module a Lambda function as having an interface for inputs and another for outputs. These interfaces can be the same.

Sample interface for Lambda function

interface IBytesMethod {
    @MethodId(0x81L) // (1)
    void myByteable(MyByteable byteable);

    @MethodId(0x82L)
    void myScalars(MyScalars scalars);

    @MethodId(0x83L)
    void myNested(MyNested nested);
}

assign a unique id to each method to simplify decoding/encoding.

Each method needs a DTO to describe the data for that message.

class MyByteable implements BytesMarshallable {
    boolean flag;
    byte b;
    short s;
    char c;
    int i;
    float f;
    long l;
    double d;
....
class MyScalars implements BytesMarshallable {
    String s;
    BigInteger bi;
    BigDecimal bd;
    LocalDate date;
    LocalTime time;
    LocalDateTime dateTime;
    ZonedDateTime zonedDateTime;
    UUID uuid;
....
class MyNested implements BytesMarshallable {
    MyByteable byteable;
    MyScalars scalars;
....

The implementation needs to take it’s output interface and implement the input interface

A simple pass through implementation

static class IBMImpl implements IBytesMethod {
    final IBytesMethod out;

    IBMImpl(IBytesMethod out) { this.out = out; }

    @Override
    public void myByteable(MyByteable byteable) { out.myByteable(byteable); }

    @Override
    public void myScalars(MyScalars scalars) { out.myScalars(scalars); }

    @Override
    public void myNested(MyNested nested) { out.myNested(nested); }
}

Once we have interfaces, DTOs, and an implementation we can setup a test harness

Setup a test harness for a Lambda function

protected void btmttTest(String input, String output) throws IOException {
    BytesTextMethodTester tester = new BytesTextMethodTester<>(
            input,
            IBMImpl::new,
            IBytesMethod.class,
            output);
    tester.run();
    assertEquals(tester.expected(), tester.actual());
}

This allows us to give two files, one for expected inputs and one for expected outputs.

@Test
public void run() throws IOException {
    btmttTest("btmtt/prim-input.txt", "btmtt/prim-output.txt");
}

Note	In this case the input and outputs are expected to be the same.

### End Of Block
### End Of Test

In this case, the test calls the methods with the matching method ids which in turn uses the same ids to encode the output.

Note	Creating and maintain such tests can be an overhead you don’t need. In this case, you can use Chronicle Wire’s YAML testing format to check functionality. WIre can be used for most of the tests even if you intend to use Bytes for production.
