Class LazyStringArrayList

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    LazyStringList, ProtocolStringList, Iterable<String>, Collection<String>, List<String>, RandomAccess


    public class LazyStringArrayList
    extends AbstractList<String>
    implements LazyStringList, RandomAccess
    An implementation of LazyStringList that wraps an ArrayList. Each element is one of String, ByteString, or byte[]. It caches the last one requested which is most likely the one needed next. This minimizes memory usage while satisfying the most common use cases.

    Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access an ArrayList instance concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies the list structurally, it must be synchronized externally. (A structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more elements, or explicitly resizes the backing array; merely setting the value of an element is not a structural modification.) This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the list.

    If the implementation is accessed via concurrent reads, this is thread safe. Conversions are done in a thread safe manner. It's possible that the conversion may happen more than once if two threads attempt to access the same element and the modifications were not visible to each other, but this will not result in any corruption of the list or change in behavior other than performance.

        public ByteString getByteString(int index)
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Returns the element at the specified position in this list as a ByteString.
        Specified by:
        getByteString in interface  LazyStringList

        public byte[] getByteArray(int index)
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Returns the element at the specified position in this list as byte[].
        Specified by:
        getByteArray in interface  LazyStringList
        Parameters:
        index - index of the element to return
        Returns:
        the element at the specified position in this list
      • set

        public void set(int index,
                        ByteString s)
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Replaces the element at the specified position in this list with the specified element (optional operation).
        Specified by:
        set in interface  LazyStringList
        Parameters:

      • set

        public void set(int index,
                        byte[] s)
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Replaces the element at the specified position in this list with the specified element (optional operation).
        Specified by:
        set in interface  LazyStringList
        Parameters:

      • getUnderlyingElements

        public List<?> getUnderlyingElements()
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Returns an unmodifiable List of the underlying elements, each of which is either a String or its equivalent UTF-8 encoded ByteString or byte[]. It is an error for the caller to modify the returned List, and attempting to do so will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
      • mergeFrom

        public void mergeFrom(LazyStringList other)
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Merges all elements from another LazyStringList into this one. This method differs from List.addAll(Collection) on that underlying byte arrays are copied instead of reference shared. Immutable API doesn't need to use this method as byte[] is not used there at all.
      • asByteArrayList

        public List<byte[]> asByteArrayList()
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Returns a mutable view of this list. Changes to the view will be made into the original list. This method is used in mutable API only.
      • asByteStringList

        public List<ByteString> asByteStringList()
        Description copied from interface: ProtocolStringList
        Returns a view of the data as a list of ByteStrings.
      • getUnmodifiableView

        public LazyStringList getUnmodifiableView()
        Description copied from interface: LazyStringList
        Returns an unmodifiable view of the list.
