Class GenerationIdChecksum

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Checksum

    public class GenerationIdChecksum
    extends Object
    implements Checksum
    This class computes the generation id used for a replication domain. It is a checksum based on some special entries/attributes of the domain. The written stream to this class is the LDIF representation of the entries we are interested in for computing the generation id. The current implementation simply does the sum of each written byte and stores the value in a long. We do not care about the cycling long as the probability of 2 data sets having the same checksum is very low.
