init

@ThreadRestricted(value="constructor")
void init(CountNode.Table countNodeTable)

See Also:

countNodeTable()

candidateCount

public long candidateCount()

The number of nodes with a receive count of 1 or higher.

See Also:

CountNode.receiveCount()

countNodeTable

public CountNode.Table countNodeTable()

The relational store of count nodes that (in part) backs this count. It is a schema.table named "election-name.date-count_node-date", stored in the count database.

Returns:

reference to relational store; or null, if the count was not initialized with a reference

See Also:

Election.countDatabase(), init(CountNode.Table)

holdCount

public long holdCount()

The total hold count for all nodes. This is identical to the number of votes cast.

See Also:

CountNode.holdCount()

nodeCount

public long nodeCount()

The number of recorded nodes, corresponding to rows in the node table. It includes eligible and ineligible voters. It might (in future) include voters who are not participating at all in the election, but have set some particular flag (such as non-cascading). This value is not meaningful, therefore, except to administrators.

See Also:

CountNode

rankCount

public long rankCount()

The total number of ranks. This is also the value of the bottom rank, that of the node(s) receiving the lowest number (normally zero) of votes.

Returns:

count of 1 or larger; or 0, if there are no nodes at all

See Also:

CountNode.getRank()

readyDirectory

public ReadyDirectory readyDirectory()

The file part of the backing for this count.

singleCastCount

public long singleCastCount()

The total number of votes cast. This is identical to the hold count.

CountNode.singleCastCount()
