   java.util.concurrent.CopyOnWriteArrayList

CopyOnWriteArrayList
public class CopyOnWriteArrayList implements List<E>,RandomAccess,Cloneable,java.io.Serializable(Code)
A thread-safe variant of java.util.ArrayList in which all mutative operations (add, set, and so on) are implemented by making a fresh copy of the underlying array.

This is ordinarily too costly, but may be more efficient than alternatives when traversal operations vastly outnumber mutations, and is useful when you cannot or don't want to synchronize traversals, yet need to preclude interference among concurrent threads. The "snapshot" style iterator method uses a reference to the state of the array at the point that the iterator was created. This array never changes during the lifetime of the iterator, so interference is impossible and the iterator is guaranteed not to throw ConcurrentModificationException. The iterator will not reflect additions, removals, or changes to the list since the iterator was created. Element-changing operations on iterators themselves (remove, set, and add) are not supported. These methods throw UnsupportedOperationException.

All elements are permitted, including null.

Memory consistency effects: As with other concurrent collections, actions in a thread prior to placing an object into a CopyOnWriteArrayList happen-before actions subsequent to the access or removal of that element from the CopyOnWriteArrayList in another thread.

This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

throws:
  IndexOutOfBoundsException -



remove
public boolean remove(Object o)(Code)
Removes the first occurrence of the specified element from this list, if it is present. If this list does not contain the element, it is unchanged. More formally, removes the element with the lowest index i such that (o==null ? get(i)==null : o.equals(get(i))) (if such an element exists). Returns true if this list contained the specified element (or equivalently, if this list changed as a result of the call).
Parameters:
  o - element to be removed from this list, if present true if this list contained the specified element



removeAll
public boolean removeAll(Collection c)(Code)
Removes from this list all of its elements that are contained in the specified collection. This is a particularly expensive operation in this class because of the need for an internal temporary array.
Parameters:
  c - collection containing elements to be removed from this list true if this list changed as a result of the call
throws:
  ClassCastException - if the class of an element of this listis incompatible with the specified collection (optional)
throws:

See Also:   CopyOnWriteArrayList.remove(Object)



retainAll

Parameters:
  c - collection containing elements to be retained in this list true if this list changed as a result of the call
throws:
  ClassCastException - if the class of an element of this listis incompatible with the specified collection (optional)
throws:
  NullPointerException - if this list contains a null element and thespecified collection does not permit null elements (optional),or if the specified collection is null
See Also:   CopyOnWriteArrayList.remove(Object)

public E set(int index, E element)(Code)
Replaces the element at the specified position in this list with the specified element.
throws:
  IndexOutOfBoundsException -



setArray
final void setArray(Object[] a)(Code)
Sets the array.



size
public int size()(Code)
Returns the number of elements in this list. the number of elements in this list



subList
public List<E> subList(int fromIndex, int toIndex)(Code)
Returns a view of the portion of this list between fromIndex, inclusive, and toIndex, exclusive. The returned list is backed by this list, so changes in the returned list are reflected in this list.

The semantics of the list returned by this method become undefined if the backing list (i.e., this list) is modified in any way other than via the returned list.
Parameters:
  fromIndex - low endpoint (inclusive) of the subList
Parameters:
  toIndex - high endpoint (exclusive) of the subList a view of the specified range within this list
throws:
  IndexOutOfBoundsException -




toArray
public Object[] toArray()(Code)
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this list in proper sequence (from first to last element).

The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this list. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.

This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs. an array containing all the elements in this list




toArray
public T[] toArray(T a)(Code)
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this list in proper sequence (from first to last element); the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array. If the list fits in the specified array, it is returned therein. Otherwise, a new array is allocated with the runtime type of the specified array and the size of this list.

If this list fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than this list), the element in the array immediately following the end of the list is set to null. (This is useful in determining the length of this list only if the caller knows that this list does not contain any null elements.)

Like the CopyOnWriteArrayList.toArray() method, this method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs. Further, this method allows precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may, under certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs.

Suppose x is a list known to contain only strings. The following code can be used to dump the list into a newly allocated array of String:

 String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);
Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to toArray().
Parameters:
  a - the array into which the elements of the list are tobe stored, if it is big enough; otherwise, a new array of thesame runtime type is allocated for this purpose. an array containing all the elements in this list
throws:
  ArrayStoreException - if the runtime type of the specified arrayis not a supertype of the runtime type of every element inthis list
throws:
  NullPointerException - if the specified array is null



toString
public String toString()(Code)
Returns a string representation of this list. The string representation consists of the string representations of the list's elements in the order they are returned by its iterator, enclosed in square brackets ("[]"). Adjacent elements are separated by the characters ", " (comma and space). Elements are converted to strings as by String.valueOf(Object) . a string representation of this list
