Detailed Description

Histogram base class.

This is an abstract class containing the interface and shared code for concrete histogram subclasses.

Histogram subclasses (Singleton, Equi_height) are constructed through factory methods in order to catch memory allocation errors during construction.

The histogram subclasses have no public copy or move constructors. In order to copy a histogram onto a given MEM_ROOT, use the public clone method. The clone method ensures that members of the histogram, such String type buckets, are also allocated on the given MEM_ROOT. Modifications to these methods need to be careful that histogram buckets are cloned/copied correctly.

◆ get_selectivity()

bool histograms::Histogram::get_selectivity ( Item **  items,
size_t  item_count,
enum_operator  op,
double *  selectivity 
) const

Get selectivity estimation.

This function will try and get the selectivity estimation for a predicate on the form "COLUMN OPERATOR CONSTANT", for instance "SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE col1 > 23;".

This function will take care of several of things, for instance checking that the value we are estimating the selectivity for is a constant value.

The order of the Items provided does not matter. For instance, of the operator argument given is "EQUALS_TO", it does not matter if the constant value is provided as the first or the second argument; this function will take care of this.

Parameters
itemsan array of items that contains both the field we are estimating the selectivity for, as well as the user-provided constant values.
item_countthe number of Items in the Item array.
opthe predicate operator
[out]selectivitythe calculated selectivity if a usable histogram was found
Return values
trueif an error occurred (the Item provided was not a constant value or similar).
Returns
false if success

◆ get_selectivity_dispatcher()

bool histograms::Histogram::get_selectivity_dispatcher ( Item item,
const enum_operator  op,
const TYPELIB typelib,
double *  selectivity 
) const
private

An internal function for getting the selecitvity estimation.

This function will read/evaluate the value from the given Item, and pass this value on to the correct selectivity estimation function based on the data type of the histogram. For instance, if the data type of the histogram is INT, we will call "val_int" on the Item to evaluate the value as an integer and pass this value on to the next function.

Parameters
itemThe Item to read/evaluate the value from.
opThe operator we are estimating the selectivity for.
typelibIn the case of ENUM or SET data type, this parameter holds the type information. This is needed in order to map a string representation of an ENUM/SET value into its correct integer representation (ENUM/SET values are stored as integer values in the histogram).
[out]selectivityThe estimated selectivity, between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive.
Returns
true on error (i.e the provided item was NULL), false on success.

◆ get_table_name()

const LEX_CSTRING histograms::Histogram::get_table_name ( ) const
inline
Returns
name of the table this histogram represents
