  • Method Details

    • getNoEntryValue

      char getNoEntryValue()
      Returns the value that is used to represent null. The default value is generally zero, but can be changed during construction of the collection.
      Returns:
      the value that represents null
    • size

      int size()
      Returns the number of elements in this collection (its cardinality). If this collection contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements, returns Integer.MAX_VALUE.
      Returns:
      the number of elements in this collection (its cardinality)
    • isEmpty

      boolean isEmpty()
      Returns true if this collection contains no elements.
      Returns:
      true if this collection contains no elements
    • contains

      boolean contains(char entry)
      Returns true if this collection contains the specified element.
      Parameters:
      entry - an char value
      Returns:
      true if the collection contains the specified element.
    • iterator

      TCharIterator iterator()
      Creates an iterator over the values of the collection. The iterator supports element deletion.
      Returns:
      an TCharIterator value
    • toArray

      char[] toArray()
      Returns an array containing all of the elements in this collection. If this collection makes any guarantees as to what order its elements are returned by its iterator, this method must return the elements in the same order.

      The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this collection. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array even if this collection is backed by an array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.

      This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.

      Returns:
      an array containing all the elements in this collection
    • toArray

      char[] toArray(char[] dest)
      Returns an array containing elements in this collection.

      If this collection fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than this collection), the element in the array immediately following the end of the collection is collection to getNoEntryValue(). (This is useful in determining the length of this collection only if the caller knows that this collection does not contain any elements representing null.)

      If the native array is smaller than the collection size, the array will be filled with elements in Iterator order until it is full and exclude the remainder.

      If this collection makes any guarantees as to what order its elements are returned by its iterator, this method must return the elements in the same order.

      Parameters:
      dest - the array into which the elements of this collection are to be stored.
      Returns:
      an char[] containing all the elements in this collection
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if the specified array is null
    • add

      boolean add(char entry)
      Inserts a value into the collection.
      Parameters:

    • remove

      boolean remove(char entry)
      Removes entry from the collection.
      Parameters:
      entry - an char value
      Returns:
      true if the collection was modified by the remove operation.
    • containsAll

      array - an array of char primitives.

      false if the loop over the collection terminated because the procedure returned false for some value.
    • equals

      boolean equals(Object o)
      Compares the specified object with this collection for equality. Returns true if the specified object is also a collection, the two collection have the same size, and every member of the specified collection is contained in this collection (or equivalently, every member of this collection is contained in the specified collection). This definition ensures that the equals method works properly across different implementations of the collection interface.
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object

      o - object to be compared for equality with this collection
      Returns:
      true if the specified object is equal to this collection
    • hashCode

      int hashCode()
      Returns the hash code value for this collection. The hash code of a collection is defined to be the sum of the hash codes of the elements in the collection. This ensures that s1.equals(s2) implies that s1.hashCode()==s2.hashCode() for any two collection s1 and s2, as required by the general contract of Object.hashCode().
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
      Returns:
      the hash code value for this collection
