Interface ShortList

All Superinterfaces:
Collection<Short>, Comparable<List<? extends Short>>, Iterable<Short>, List<Short>, SequencedCollection<Short>, ShortCollection, ShortIterable
All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractShortList, AbstractShortList.ShortRandomAccessSubList, AbstractShortList.ShortSubList, ShortArrayList, ShortImmutableList, ShortLists.EmptyList, ShortLists.Singleton, ShortLists.SynchronizedList, ShortLists.SynchronizedRandomAccessList, ShortLists.UnmodifiableList, ShortLists.UnmodifiableRandomAccessList

public interface ShortList extends List<Short>, Comparable<List<? extends Short>>, ShortCollection
A type-specific List; provides some additional methods that use polymorphism to avoid (un)boxing.

Note that this type-specific interface extends Comparable: it is expected that implementing classes perform a lexicographical comparison using the standard operator "less then" for primitive types, and the usual compareTo() method for objects.

Additionally, this interface strengthens iterator(), listIterator(), listIterator(int) and subList(int,int). The former had been already strengthened upstream, but unfortunately List re-specifies it.

Besides polymorphic methods, this interfaces specifies methods to copy into an array or remove contiguous sublists. Although the abstract implementation of this interface provides simple, one-by-one implementations of these methods, it is expected that concrete implementation override them with optimized versions.

    • iterator

      ShortListIterator iterator()
      Returns a type-specific iterator on the elements of this list.
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface Collection<Short>
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface Iterable<Short>
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface List<Short>
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface ShortCollection
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface ShortIterable
      Returns:
      an iterator on the elements of this list.
      See Also:
      API Notes:
      This specification strengthens the one given in List.iterator(). It would not be normally necessary, but Iterable.iterator() is bizarrily re-specified in List.

      Also, this is generally the only iterator method subclasses should override.

    • spliterator

      default ShortSpliterator spliterator()
      Returns a type-specific spliterator on the elements of this list.

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

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

      Specified by:
      spliterator in interface Collection<Short>
      Specified by:
      spliterator in interface Iterable<Short>
      Specified by:
      spliterator in interface List<Short>
      Specified by:
      spliterator in interface ShortCollection
      Specified by:
      spliterator in interface ShortIterable
      Returns:
      a type-specific spliterator on the elements of this collection.
      Since:
      8.5.0
      API Notes:
      This specification strengthens the one given in Collection.spliterator(), which was already strengthened in the corresponding type-specific class, but was weakened by the fact that this interface extends List.

      Also, this is generally the only spliterator method subclasses should override.

      Implementation Specification:
      The default implementation returns a late-binding spliterator (see Spliterator for documentation on what binding policies mean).
      • For RandomAccess lists, this will return a spliterator that calls the type-specific get(int) method on the appropriate indexes.
      • Otherwise, the spliterator returned will wrap this instance's type specific iterator().

      In either case, the spliterator reports Spliterator.SIZED, Spliterator.SUBSIZED, and Spliterator.ORDERED.

      Implementation Notes:
      As the non-RandomAccess case is based on the iterator, and Iterator is an inherently linear API, the returned spliterator will yield limited performance gains when run in parallel contexts, as the returned spliterator's trySplit() will have linear runtime.

      For RandomAccess lists, the parallel performance should be reasonable assuming get(int) is truly constant time like RandomAccess suggests.

      This specification strengthens the one given in List.subList(int,int).
    • size

      void size(int size)

              iter.set(a[offset + i++]);

      default void sort(ShortComparator comparator)
      Sort a list using a type-specific comparator.

      Pass null to sort using natural ordering.

      Since:

      See Also:
      Implementation Specification:
      The default implementation dumps the elements into an array using List.toArray(), sorts the array, then replaces all elements using the setElements(short[]) function.

      It is possible for this method to call unstableSort(java.util.Comparator<? super java.lang.Short>) if it can determine that the results of a stable and unstable sort are completely equivalent. This means if you override unstableSort(java.util.Comparator<? super java.lang.Short>), it should not call this method unless you override this method as well.

    • unstableSort

      default void unstableSort(ShortComparator comparator)
      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.
