Class ImmutableLongArray

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    @GwtCompatible
    @Immutable
    public final class ImmutableLongArray
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements java.io.Serializable
    An immutable array of long values, with an API resembling List.

    Advantages compared to long[]:

    • All the many well-known advantages of immutability (read Effective Java, third edition, Item 17).
    • Has the value-based (not identity-based) equals(java.lang.Object), hashCode(), and toString() behavior you expect.
    • Offers useful operations beyond just get and length, so you don't have to hunt through classes like Arrays and Longs for them.
    • Supports a copy-free subArray(int, int) view, so methods that accept this type don't need to add overloads that accept start and end indexes.
    • Can be streamed without "breaking the chain": foo.getBarLongs().stream()....
    • Access to all collection-based utilities via asList() (though at the cost of allocating garbage).

    Disadvantages compared to long[]:

    • Memory footprint has a fixed overhead (about 24 bytes per instance).
    • Some construction use cases force the data to be copied (though several construction APIs are offered that don't).
    • Can't be passed directly to methods that expect long[] (though the most common utilities do have replacements here).
    • Dependency on com.google.common / Guava.

    Advantages compared to ImmutableList <Long>:

    • Improved memory compactness and locality.
    • Can be queried without allocating garbage.
    • Access to LongStream features (like LongStream.sum()) using stream() instead of the awkward stream().mapToLong(v -> v).

    Disadvantages compared to ImmutableList<Long>:

    • Can't be passed directly to methods that expect Iterable, Collection, or List (though the most common utilities do have replacements here, and there is a lazy asList() view).

        public static ImmutableLongArray copyOf​(java.util.stream.LongStream stream)
        Returns an immutable array containing all the values from stream, in order.
      • builder

        public static ImmutableLongArray.Builder builder​(int initialCapacity)
        Returns a new, empty builder for ImmutableLongArray instances, sized to hold up to initialCapacity values without resizing. The returned builder is not thread-safe.

        Performance note: When feasible, initialCapacity should be the exact number of values that will be added, if that knowledge is readily available. It is better to guess a value slightly too high than slightly too low. If the value is not exact, the ImmutableLongArray that is built will very likely occupy more memory than strictly necessary; to trim memory usage, build using builder.build().trimmed().

      • builder

        public static ImmutableLongArray.Builder builder()
        Returns a new, empty builder for ImmutableLongArray instances, with a default initial capacity. The returned builder is not thread-safe.

        Performance note: The ImmutableLongArray that is built will very likely occupy more memory than necessary; to trim memory usage, build using builder.build().trimmed().

      • length

        public int length()
        Returns the number of values in this array.
      • isEmpty

        Returns true if there are no values in this array (length() is zero).

        Throws:
        java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - if index is negative, or greater than or equal to length()
      • indexOf

        public int indexOf​(long target)
        Returns the smallest index for which get(int) returns target, or -1 if no such index exists. Equivalent to asList().indexOf(target).
      • lastIndexOf

        public int lastIndexOf​(long target)
        Returns the largest index for which get(int) returns target, or -1 if no such index exists. Equivalent to asList().lastIndexOf(target).
      • contains

        public boolean contains​(long target)
        Returns true if target is present at any index in this array. Equivalent to asList().contains(target).
      • forEach

        public void forEach​(java.util.function.LongConsumer consumer)
        Invokes consumer for each value contained in this array, in order.
      • stream

        public java.util.stream.LongStream stream()
        Returns a stream over the values in this array, in order.
      • toArray

        public long[] toArray()
        Returns a new, mutable copy of this array's values, as a primitive long[].
      • subArray

        public ImmutableLongArray subArray​(int startIndex,
                                           int endIndex)
        Returns a new immutable array containing the values in the specified range.

        Performance note: The returned array has the same full memory footprint as this one does (no actual copying is performed). To reduce memory usage, use subArray(start, end).trimmed().

      • asList

        public java.util.List<java.lang.Long> asList()
        Returns an immutable view of this array's values as a List; note that long values are boxed into Long instances on demand, which can be very expensive. The returned list should be used once and discarded. For any usages beyond that, pass the returned list to ImmutableList.copyOf and use that list instead.
      • equals

        public boolean equals​(@CheckForNull
                              java.lang.Object object)
        Returns true if object is an ImmutableLongArray containing the same values as this one, in the same order.
        Overrides:
        equals in class java.lang.Object
      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        Returns an unspecified hash code for the contents of this immutable array.
        Overrides:
        hashCode in class java.lang.Object
      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Returns a string representation of this array in the same form as Arrays.toString(long[]), for example "[1, 2, 3]".
        Overrides:
        toString in class java.lang.Object
      • trimmed

        public ImmutableLongArray trimmed()
        Returns an immutable array containing the same values as this array. This is logically a no-op, and in some circumstances this itself is returned. However, if this instance is a subArray(int, int) view of a larger array, this method will copy only the appropriate range of values, resulting in an equivalent array with a smaller memory footprint.
