public interface ShortCollection

extends Collection

A type-specific Collection; provides some additional methods that use polymorphism to reduce type juggling.

Note that iterators provided by classes implementing this interface must be type specific.

Method Summary

boolean	add(short key)
boolean	addAll(ShortCollection c)
boolean	contains(short key)
boolean	containsAll(ShortCollection c)
boolean	rem(short key) Note that this method should be called remove(), but the clash with the similarly named index-based method in the List interface forces us to use a distinguished name.
boolean	removeAll(ShortCollection c)
boolean	retainAll(ShortCollection c)
ShortIterator	shortIterator() Returns a type-specific iterator on the collection.
short[]	toArray(short[] a) Builds a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
short[]	toShortArray() Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
short[]	toShortArray(short[] a) Builds a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Method Detail

shortIterator

public ShortIterator shortIterator()

Returns a type-specific iterator on the collection.

The iterator returned by the Collection.iterator() method and by this method are identical; however, using this method you can save a type casting.

Since:

2.51

Collection.iterator()

contains

public boolean contains(short key)

See Also:

Collection.contains(Object)

toShortArray

public short[] toShortArray()

Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray()

toShortArray

public short[] toShortArray(short[] a)

Builds a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Parameters:

a - if this array is big enough, it will be used to store the collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray(Object[])

toArray

public short[] toArray(short[] a)

Builds a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

Parameters:

a - if this array is big enough, it will be used to store the collection.

Returns:

a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.

See Also:

Collection.toArray(Object[])

add

public boolean add(short key)

See Also:

Collection.add(Object)

rem

public boolean rem(short key)

Note that this method should be called remove(), but the clash with the similarly named index-based method in the List interface forces us to use a distinguished name. For simplicity, the set interfaces reinstates remove().

See Also:

Collection.remove(Object)

addAll

public boolean addAll(ShortCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.addAll(Collection)

containsAll

public boolean containsAll(ShortCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.containsAll(Collection)

removeAll

public boolean removeAll(ShortCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.removeAll(Collection)

retainAll

public boolean retainAll(ShortCollection c)

See Also:

Collection.retainAll(Collection)
