=================

Apache® DataSketches™ Core Java Library Component

This is the core Java component of the DataSketches library. It contains all of the sketching algorithms and can be accessed directly from user applications.

This component is also a dependency of other components of the library that create adaptors for target systems, such as the Apache Pig adaptor and the Apache Hive adaptor.

Note that we have a parallel core component for C++ and Python implementations of the same sketch algorithms, datasketches-cpp.

Please visit the main DataSketches website for more information.

Build Instructions

NOTE: This component accesses resource files for testing. As a result, the directory elements of the full absolute path of the target installation directory must qualify as Java identifiers. In other words, the directory elements must not have any space characters (or non-Java identifier characters) in any of the path elements. This is required by the Oracle Java Specification in order to ensure location-independent access to resources: See Oracle Location-Independent Access to Resources

A JDK8 with Hotspot through JDK13 with Hotspot is required to compile

This component depends on the datasketches-memory component, and, as a result, must be compiled with one of the above JDKs. If your application only relies on the APIs of this component no special JVM arguments are required. However, if your application also directly relies on the APIs of the datasketches-memory component, you may need additional JVM arguments. Please refer to the datasketches-memory README for details.

If your application uses Maven, you can also use the pom.xml of this component as an example of how to automatically configure the JVM arguments for compilation and testing based on the version of the JDK.

Recommended Build Tool

This DataSketches component is structured as a Maven project and Maven is the recommended Build Tool.

There are two types of tests: normal unit tests and tests run by the strict profile.

To run normal unit tests:

$ mvn clean test

To run the strict profile tests (only supported in Java 8):

$ mvn clean test -P strict

To install jars built from the downloaded source:

$ mvn clean install -DskipTests=true

This will create the following jars:

  • datasketches-java-X.Y.Z.jar The compiled main class files.
  • datasketches-java-X.Y.Z-tests.jar The compiled test class files.
  • datasketches-java-X.Y.Z-sources.jar The main source files.
  • datasketches-java-X.Y.Z-test-sources.jar The test source files
  • datasketches-java-X.Y.Z-javadoc.jar The compressed Javadocs.

Dependencies

Run-time

There is one run-time dependency:

  • org.apache.datasketches : datasketches-memory

Testing

See the pom.xml file for test dependencies.
