## org.apache.lucene.util.fst
Class PairOutputs<A,B>

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.lucene.util.fst.Outputs<PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>>
          org.apache.lucene.util.fst.PairOutputs<A,B>

    public class PairOutputs<A,B>

extends Outputs<PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>>

An FST `Outputs` implementation, holding two other outputs.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

Nested Class Summary
`static class` `PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` Holds a single pair of two outputs.

Constructor Summary
`PairOutputs(Outputs<A> outputs1, Outputs<B> outputs2)`

Method Summary
`PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` `add(PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> prefix, PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> output)` Eg add("foo", "bar") -> "foobar"
`PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` `common(PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> pair1, PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> pair2)` Eg common("foo", "foobar") -> "foo"
`PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` `getNoOutput()` NOTE: this output is compared with == so you must ensure that all methods return the single object if it's really no output
`PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` `newPair(A a, B b)` Create a new Pair
`String` `outputToString(PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> output)`
`PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` `read(DataInput in)`
`PairOutputs.Pair<A,B>` `subtract(PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> output, PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> inc)` Eg subtract("foobar", "foo") -> "bar"
`String` `toString()`
`void` `write(PairOutputs.Pair<A,B> output, DataOutput writer)`
