  • Constructor Details

    • ArrayDelegatingEList

      public ArrayDelegatingEList()
      Creates an empty instance with no initial capacity. The data storage will be null.
    • ArrayDelegatingEList

      public ArrayDelegatingEList(Collection<? extends E> collection)
      Creates an instance that is a copy of the collection.
      Parameters:
      collection - the initial contents of the list.
    • ArrayDelegatingEList

      protected ArrayDelegatingEList(Object[] data)
      Creates an initialized instance that directly uses the given arguments.
      Parameters:
      data - the underlying storage of the list.
  • Method Details

    • newData

      protected E assign(Object[] data, int index, E object)
      Assigns the object into the data storage at the given index and returns the object that's been stored. Clients can monitor access to the storage via this method.

      index - the position of the new content.
      object - the new content.
      Returns:
      the object that's been stored.

      Overrides:
      lastIndexOf in class AbstractList<E>
      Parameters:

      Specified by:
      toArray in interface Collection<E>
      Specified by:

    • toArray

      public <T> T[] toArray(T[] array)
      Returns an array containing all the objects in sequence.
      Specified by:
      toArray in interface Collection<E>

      See Also:
    • data

      public abstract Object[] data()
      Returns direct unsafe access to the underlying data storage. Clients may not modify this array's elements but may assume that the array remains valid even as the list is modified. The array's length is exactly the same as the list's size; null is used to represent the empty list.
      Returns:
      direct unsafe access to the underlying data storage.
    • setData

      public void setData(Object[] data)
      Updates directly and unsafely the underlying data storage. Clients must be aware that this subverts all callbacks and hence possibly the integrity of the list. The list implementation itself calls this method whenever a modification of the list requires a new backing array.
      Parameters:
      data - the new underlying data storage.
