Method Details

writeUnsigned

public static void writeUnsigned(ByteBuffer bb,
 long value)

Encodes a value using the variable-length encoding of SQLite.

The encoding has the following properties:

1. Smaller (and more common) values use fewer bytes and take up less space than larger (and less common) values.
2. The length of any varint can be determined by looking at just the first byte of the encoding.
3. Lexicographical and numeric ordering for varints are the same. Hence if a group of varints are ordered lexicographically (that is to say, if they are ordered by Arrays.compare(byte[], byte[]) with shorter varints coming first) then those varints will also be in numeric order. This property means that varints can be used as keys in the key/value backend storage and the records will occur in numerical order of the keys.

A0	Value
0–240	A0
241–248	240 + 256 × (A0 – 241) + A1
249	2288 + 256 × A1 + A2
250	A1…A3 as a 3-byte big-endian integer
251	A1…A4 as a 4-byte big-endian integer
252	A1…A5 as a 5-byte big-endian integer
253	A1…A6 as a 6-byte big-endian integer
254	A1…A7 as a 7-byte big-endian integer
255	A1…A8 as a 8-byte big-endian integer

Parameters:

bb - buffer for writing bytes
