public class IntArrayList extends AbstractIntList implements RandomAccess, Cloneable, Serializable
A type-specific array-based list; provides some additional methods that use polymorphism to avoid (un)boxing.

This class implements a lightweight, fast, open, optimized, reuse-oriented version of array-based lists. Instances of this class represent a list with an array that is enlarged as needed when new entries are created (by increasing its current length by 50%), but is never made smaller (even on a clear()). A family of trimming methods lets you control the size of the backing 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 array is exposed by the elements() method.

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(int n)
      Trims the backing array if it is too large. If the current array length is smaller than or equal to n, this method does nothing. Otherwise, it trims the array length to the maximum between n and size().

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

      Parameters:
      n - the threshold for the trimming.

      Specified by:
      listIterator in interface IntList

      List spliterators must report at least Spliterator.SIZED and Spliterator.ORDERED.

      See List.spliterator() for more documentation on the requirements of the returned spliterator.

      The returned spliterator is late-binding; it will track structural changes after the current index, up until the first trySplit(), at which point the maximum index will be fixed.
      Structural changes before the current index or after the first trySplit() will result in unspecified behavior.

      Description copied from interface: IntList
      Sorts this list using a sort not assured to be stable.

      Pass null to sort using natural ordering.

      This differs from List.sort(java.util.Comparator) in that the results are not assured to be stable, but may be a bit faster.

      Unless a subclass specifies otherwise, the results of the method if the list is concurrently modified during the sort are unspecified.
