public class ListToIntListAdapter

extends AbstractIntList

This class represents adaptions of Java Collections Framework lists to primitive lists of int values. The adapter is implemented as a wrapper around the list. Thus, changes to the underlying list are reflected by this list and vice versa.

Adapters from JCF collections to primitive collections will fail if the JCF collection contains null values or values of the wrong class. However, adapters are not fast failing in the case that the underlying collection should contain illegal values. To implement fast failure would require every operation to check every element of the underlying collection before doing anything. Instead validation methods are provided. They can be called using the assertion facility in the client code:

      ListToIntListAdapter s;
      ...
      assert s.validate();
  

or by letting the adapter throw an exception on illegal values:

      ListToIntListAdapter s;
      ...
      s.evalidate();  // Throws an exception on illegal values
  

Either way, validation must be invoked directly by the client code.

list

protected List list

The underlying list.

Constructor Detail

ListToIntListAdapter

public ListToIntListAdapter(List list)

Creates a new adaption of a list to a list of int values.

Parameters:

list - the underlying list. This list must consist of values of class Integer. Otherwise a ClassCastException will be thrown by some methods.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if list is null.

ListToIntListAdapter

public ListToIntListAdapter(List list,
                            boolean validate)

Creates a new adaption of a list to a list of int values. The list to adapt is optionally validated.

Parameters:

list - the underlying list. This collection must consist of values of class Integer. Otherwise a ClassCastException will be thrown by some methods.

validate - indicates whether list should be checked for illegal values.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if list is null.

IllegalStateException - if validate is true and list contains a null value or a value that is not of class Integer.

Method Detail

add

public void add(int index,
                int v)

Description copied from class: AbstractIntList

Throws UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:

add in interface IntList

Overrides:

add in class AbstractIntList

get

public int get(int index)

Description copied from interface: IntList

Returns the element at a specified position in this list.

Parameters:

index - the position of the element to return.

Returns:

the element at the specified position.

listIterator

public IntListIterator listIterator(int index)

Description copied from interface: IntList

Returns a list iterator over this list, starting from a specified index.

Specified by:

listIterator in interface IntList

Overrides:

listIterator in class AbstractIntList

removeElementAt

public int removeElementAt(int index)

Description copied from class: AbstractIntList

Throws UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:

removeElementAt in interface IntList

Overrides:

removeElementAt in class AbstractIntList

set

public int set(int index,
               int v)

Description copied from interface: IntList

Sets a specified element to a new value.

Parameters:

index - the index of the element whose value to set.

v - the new value of the specified element.

Returns:

the previous value of the element.

size

public int size()

Description copied from interface: IntCollection

Returns the number of elements in this collection.

Specified by:

size in interface IntCollection

Overrides:

size in class AbstractIntCollection

validate

public boolean validate()

Indicates whether the underlying list is valid for this adapter. For the underlying list to be valid, it can only contain Integer values and no null values.

Returns:

true if the underlying list is valid; returns false otherwise.

evalidate

public void evalidate()

Validates the list underlying this adapter and throws an exception if it is invalid. For the underlying list to be valid, it can only contain Integer values and no null values.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the underlying list is invalid.
