public interface CharCollection
extends Collection<Character>, CharIterable

A type-specific Collection; provides some additional methods that use polymorphism to avoid (un)boxing.

Additionally, this class defines strengthens (again) iterator() and defines a slightly different semantics for toArray(Object[]).

boolean	containsAll(CharCollection c)
CharIterator	iterator() Returns a type-specific iterator on the elements of this collection.
boolean	rem(char key) Note that this method should be called remove(), but the clash with the similarly named index-based method in the List interface forces us to use a distinguished name.

boolean	retainAll(CharCollection c)
char[]	toArray(char[] a) Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
<T> T[]	toArray(T[] a) Returns an containing the items of this collection; the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array.
char[]	toCharArray() Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
char[]	toCharArray(char[] a) Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Method Detail

iterator

CharIterator iterator()

Returns a type-specific iterator on the elements of this collection.

Note that this specification strengthens the one given in Iterable.iterator(), which was already strengthened in the corresponding type-specific class, but was weakened by the fact that this interface extends Collection.

Specified by:

iterator in interface CharIterable

Specified by:

iterator in interface Collection<Character>

Specified by:

iterator in interface Iterable<Character>

Returns:

a type-specific iterator on the elements of this collection.

charIterator

@Deprecated
CharIterator charIterator()

Deprecated. As of fastutil 5, replaced by iterator().

Returns a type-specific iterator on this elements of this collection.

See Also:

iterator()

toArray

<T> T[] toArray(T[] a)

Returns an containing the items of this collection; the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array.

Warning: Note that, contrarily to Collection.toArray(Object[]), this methods just writes all elements of this collection: no special value will be added after the last one.

Specified by:

toArray in interface Collection<Character>

Parameters:

a - if this array is big enough, it will be used to store this collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray(Object[])

contains

boolean contains(char key)

See Also:

Collection.contains(Object)

toCharArray

char[] toCharArray()

Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray()

toCharArray

char[] toCharArray(char[] a)

Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Note that, contrarily to Collection.toArray(Object[]), this methods just writes all elements of this collection: no special value will be added after the last one.

Parameters:

a - if this array is big enough, it will be used to store this collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray(Object[])

toArray

char[] toArray(char[] a)

Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Note that, contrarily to Collection.toArray(Object[]), this methods just writes all elements of this collection: no special value will be added after the last one.

Parameters:

a - if this array is big enough, it will be used to store this collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray(Object[])

add

boolean add(char key)

See Also:

Collection.add(Object)

rem

boolean rem(char key)

Note that this method should be called remove(), but the clash with the similarly named index-based method in the List interface forces us to use a distinguished name. For simplicity, the set interfaces reinstates remove().

See Also:

Collection.remove(Object)

addAll

boolean addAll(CharCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.addAll(Collection)

containsAll

boolean containsAll(CharCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.containsAll(Collection)

removeAll

boolean removeAll(CharCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.removeAll(Collection)

retainAll

boolean retainAll(CharCollection c)

Collection.retainAll(Collection)
