    public class ReferenceBigArrayBigList<K>
    extends AbstractReferenceBigList<K>
    implements RandomAccess, Cloneable, Serializable
    A type-specific big-array-based big list; provides some additional methods that use polymorphism to avoid (un)boxing.

    This class implements a lightweight, fast, open, optimized, reuse-oriented version of big-array-based big lists. Instances of this class represent a big list with a big array that is enlarged as needed when new entries are created (by doubling the current length), but is never made smaller (even on a clear()). A family of trimming methods lets you control the size of the backing big array; this is particularly useful if you reuse instances of this class. Range checks are equivalent to those of java.util's classes, but they are delayed as much as possible.

    The backing big array is exposed by the elements() method. If an instance of this class was created by wrapping, backing-array reallocations will be performed using reflection, so that elements() can return a big array of the same type of the original big array; the comments about efficiency made in ObjectArrays apply here.

    This class implements the bulk methods removeElements(), addElements() and getElements() using high-performance system calls (e.g., System.arraycopy() instead of expensive loops.

      • trim

        public void trim()
        Trims this big-array big list so that the capacity is equal to the size.
        See Also:
        ArrayList.trimToSize()
      • trim

        public void trim​(long n)
        Trims the backing big array if it is too large. If the current big array length is smaller than or equal to n, this method does nothing. Otherwise, it trims the big-array length to the maximum between n and size64().

        This method is useful when reusing big lists. Clearing a big list leaves the big-array length untouched. If you are reusing a big list many times, you can call this method with a typical size to avoid keeping around a very large big array just because of a few large transient big lists.

        Parameters:
        n - the threshold for the trimming.
      • getElements

        public void getElements​(long from,

                                long length)
        Copies element of this type-specific list into the given big array using optimized system calls.
        Specified by:
        getElements in interface ReferenceBigList<K>
        Overrides:
        getElements in class AbstractReferenceBigList<K>
        Parameters:
        from - the start index (inclusive).
        a - the destination big array.
        offset - the offset into the destination array where to store the first element copied.
        length - the number of elements to be copied.

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(ReferenceBigArrayBigList<K> l)
        Compares this type-specific big-array list to another one.

        This method exists only for sake of efficiency. The implementation inherited from the abstract implementation would already work.

        Parameters:
        l - a type-specific big-array list.
        Returns:
        true if the argument contains the same elements of this type-specific big-array list.
