Class DictionaryLookupSplitTransformFactory

Factory methods that create a DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue> or a DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TDictionaryInput, TKey, TValue> dataflow worker, which performs a lookup of a key in an dictionary, and uses the dictionary values to modify the rows before sending them to one of the outputs.

Note that by default on .NET Framework, maximum array size is 2GB, which in turn limits the Dictionary<TKey,TValue> size with a 64-bit application (using references as key and value) to a maximum of 47.9 million items. You can remove this limit by enabling support for larger arrays, as described in <gcAllowVeryLargeObjects> Element.

.NET 6+ on the other hand supports >2GB arrays by default.

The Input port is linked to (if available) the upstream output or error output port specified by the factory.

Get the factory from Link when the upstream port is known ahead of time (which is usually the case). Otherwise get it from GetDownstreamFactory<TInput>(), and link the transform or target explicitly using LinkTo(InputPort<TOutput>) or LinkFrom(OutputPortBase<TInput>).

Methods

DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue>(in DownstreamFactory<TInputOutputError>, String, IReadOnlyDictionary<TKey, TValue>, Func<TInputOutputError, TKey>, Action<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue>)

Initializes a new instance of the DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue> dataflow worker, which performs a lookup of a key in an IReadOnlyDictionary<TKey,TValue>, and uses the dictionary values to optionally modify the rows before sending them to one of the outputs.

The Input port is linked to (if available) the upstream output or error output port specified by the factory.

Rows where the key is found are sent to FoundOutput, while rows where the key is not found are sent to NotFoundOutput.

Declaration

public static DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue> DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue>(this in DownstreamFactory<TInputOutputError> downstreamFactory, string workerName, IReadOnlyDictionary<TKey, TValue> dictionary, Func<TInputOutputError, TKey> selectRowKeyFunc, Action<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue> foundKeyAction)
    where TInputOutputError : class

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
DownstreamFactory<TInputOutputError>	downstreamFactory	The downstream factory, which specifies the parent worker and (optionally) the upstream port to link the "first" input port of this dataflow worker to. Get it from Link when the upstream port is known ahead of time (which is usually the case). Otherwise get it from GetDownstreamFactory<TInput>(), and link the transform or target explicitly using LinkTo(InputPort<TOutput>) or LinkFrom(OutputPortBase<TInput>).
String	workerName	Name of the worker. Set to a prefix plus a trailing "/" (e.g. "MyPrefix-/") to generate a unique name from the prefix plus an increasing number starting at 1. While less useful, set to null, whitespace or "/" to generate a unique name from the worker type plus an increasing number starting at 1. The name cannot otherwise contain "/", and cannot start with double underscore "__".
IReadOnlyDictionary<TKey, TValue>	dictionary	The dictionary to lookup incoming rows against. A dictionary must be provided either here, or via Dictionary. The callback methods (normally notFoundKeyFunc) can optionally be used to populate the dictionary on the fly.
Func<TInputOutputError, TKey>	selectRowKeyFunc	The select key function that takes the incoming row as a parameter, and returns the key to lookup in the dictionary.
Action<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue>	foundKeyAction	A method that gets called for each incoming row where the selectRowKeyFunc key is found in the dictionary. It takes the incoming row, the key, and the lookup value as parameters. This method is typically used to modify the incoming row using the lookup value, but can also take any other action using the incoming row and the dictionary key and value. Can be null, in which case matched rows are sent unmodified to FoundOutput.

Returns

Type	Description
DictionaryLookupSplitTransform<TInputOutputError, TKey, TValue>	The initialized (and optionally linked) transform.

Type Parameters
