| java.lang.Object 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.

true if this list contains no elements |
iterator | public Iterator<E> iterator()(Code) | | Returns an iterator over the elements in this list in proper sequence.

this list, searching backwards from index, or returns -1 if
the element is not found.
More formally, returns the highest index i such that

listIterator | public ListIterator<E> listIterator()(Code) | | The returned iterator provides a snapshot of the state of the list

remove, set or add methods.
|
listIterator | public ListIterator<E> listIterator(int index)(Code) | | The returned iterator provides a snapshot of the state of the list
when the iterator was constructed. No synchronization is needed while
traversing the iterator. The iterator does NOT support the
remove, set or add methods.
throws: IndexOutOfBoundsException - |
remove | public E remove(int index)(Code) | | Removes the element at the specified position in this list.
Shifts any subsequent elements to the left (subtracts one from their
indices). Returns the element that was removed from the list.
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: 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) |
retainAll | public boolean retainAll(Collection> c)(Code) | | Retains only the elements in this list that are contained in the
specified collection. In other words, removes from this list all of
its elements that are not contained in the specified collection.
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) |
set | 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) .
