Method Detail

subArray

UpdatablePIntegerArray subArray(long fromIndex,
                                long toIndex)
Description copied from interface: Array
Returns a view of the portion of this array between fromIndex, inclusive, and toIndex, exclusive.

Like List.subList method, this method eliminates the need for explicit range operations. For example, you may use Arrays.sort(UpdatableArray, ArrayComparator) method for sorting a fragment of the array.

Unlike List.subList, the semantics of the array returned by this method is well-defined in any case, even in case of resizing of the source array. Namely, if the internal storage of this or returned array is reallocated, then the returned array will cease to be a view of this array. The only possible reasons for reallocation are the following: calling MutableArray.length(long), MutableArray.ensureCapacity(long) or MutableArray.trim() methods for this array, or any modification of this or returned array in a case when this array is copy-on-next-write. Also, if the length of this array will be reduced, it can lead to clearing some elements in returned array: see comments to MutableArray.length(long) method.

Specified by:
subArray in interface UpdatablePFixedArray
Parameters:
fromIndex - low endpoint (inclusive) of the subarray.
toIndex - high endpoint (exclusive) of the subarray.
Returns:
a view of the specified range within this array.

Array.subArr(long, long)

subArr

UpdatablePIntegerArray subArr(long position,
                              long count)
Description copied from interface: Array
Equivalent to subArray(position, position + count). The only possible difference is other exception messages. If position+count>Long.MAX_VALUE (overflow), an exception message is allowed to be not fully correct (maximal speed is more important than absolutely correct exception messages for such exotic situations).

Specified by:

Parameters:
position - start position (inclusive) of the subarray.
count - number of elements in the subarray.
Returns:
a view of the specified range within this array.

Array.subArray(long, long)

asUnresizable

UpdatablePIntegerArray asUnresizable()
Description copied from interface: UpdatableArray
Returns an unresizable view of this array. If this array is not resizable already, returns a reference to this object. Query operations on the returned array "read through" and "write through" to this array.

The returned view (when it is not a reference to this object) contains the same elements as this array, but independent length, start offset, capacity, copy-on-next-write and possible other information about array characteristics besides its elements, as for UpdatableArray.shallowClone() method. If modifications of this or returned array characteristics lead to reallocation of the internal storage, then the returned array ceases to be a view of this array. The only possible reasons for reallocation are the following: calling MutableArray.length(long), MutableArray.ensureCapacity(long) or MutableArray.trim() methods for this array, or any modification of this or returned array in a case when this array is copy-on-next-write.

Resizable arrays, created by this package, implement full MutableArray interface, but unresizable ones implement only its UpdatableArray superinterface.

Specified by:
asUnresizable in interface UpdatableArray
Specified by:
asUnresizable in interface UpdatablePArray
Specified by:
asUnresizable in interface UpdatablePFixedArray
Returns:
an unresizable view of this array.
