## Class CharSequenceOutputs

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.lucene.util.fst.Outputs<CharsRef>
  - - org.apache.lucene.util.fst.CharSequenceOutputs

-     public final class CharSequenceOutputs
      extends Outputs<CharsRef>

  An FST `Outputs` implementation where each output is a sequence of characters.
  WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

- - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Static Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `CharsRef` | `add(CharsRef prefix, CharsRef output)` Eg add("foo", "bar") -> "foobar"
    `CharsRef` | `common(CharsRef output1, CharsRef output2)` Eg common("foobar", "food") -> "foo"
    `CharsRef` | `getNoOutput()` NOTE: this output is compared with == so you must ensure that all methods return the single object if it's really no output
    `static CharSequenceOutputs` | `getSingleton()`
    `String` | `outputToString(CharsRef output)`
    `long` | `ramBytesUsed(CharsRef output)` Return memory usage for the provided output.
    `CharsRef` | `read(DataInput in)` Decode an output value previously written with `Outputs.write(Object, DataOutput)`.
    `void` | `skipOutput(DataInput in)` Skip the output; defaults to just calling `Outputs.read(org.apache.lucene.store.DataInput)` and discarding the result.
    `CharsRef` | `subtract(CharsRef output, CharsRef inc)` Eg subtract("foobar", "foo") -> "bar"
    `void` | `write(CharsRef prefix, DataOutput out)` Encode an output value into a `DataOutput`.
