| Getters | Description | Zero Garbage |
|---|---|---|
| String getXXX() | Returns the field value as a String. | No |
| String getXXX(String defaultIfNotSet) | Returns the field value as a String, or the provided value if the field is not set. | No |
XString getXXXUnsafe() | Returns the raw XString which may be pooled along with the message and point to its backing buffer.
| Yes |
XString getXXXUnsafe(XString defaultIfNotSet) | Returns the getXXXUnsafe() or the provided XString if the field is not set. The same | Yes |
| void getXXXTo(XString to) | Copying accessor. Copies the value of the field into the provided XString. This method is a safer alternative to getXXXUnsafe as the copied value is safe to retain beyond thepooling lifespan of the object. | Yes |
void getXXXTo(XString to, XString defaultIfNotSet) | Copying accessor. This is equivalent to getXXXTo(XString to), but if the field is not set the default value is copied into the provided value. | Yes |
| <T extends XString> T getXXXTo(XString.Factory<T> factory) | Copying accessor. Similar to getXXXTo, but draws the value to copy into from the provided XString factory. This method is useful when working with a string field that is declared as poolable. This allows the application to preallocate a pool of XStrings to draw upon when copying string fields from a message | Yes |
| <T extends XString> T getXXXTo(XString.Factory<T>factory, T defaultIfNotSet) | Copying accessor. Similar to getXXXTo(factory), but will copy in the provided default value if the field is not set on the object. | Yes |
| Setters | Description | |
void setXXX(String val) | Sets the value of the field | Yes |
| void setXXXFrom(long val) | Encodes the provider long value as a decimal string. | Yes |
| void setXXXFrom(XString val) | Copying setter. This method copies the provided value into the object. This method can be more efficient than the setXXX(String) as it can copy the provided value's backing buffer directly. | Yes |
| void lendXXX(XString) | This method is equivalent to setXXX except that it allows this object to defer copying the value until this object is next serialized.
| Yes |
Note: The caller may not hold a reference to or modify the returned value beyond the pooling 
Prior to the version 3.8, ADM generated code would not allow lending of a null value and would result in a NullPointerException, this retriction was relaxed in 3.8 to treat a null value as clearing the field. ...
