Public Methods

public static List<T> asList (T... array)

Added in API level 1

Returns a List of the objects in the specified array. The size of the List cannot be modified, i.e. adding and removing are unsupported, but the elements can be set. Setting an element modifies the underlying array.

Parameters
array the array.
Returns
  • a List of the elements of the specified array.

public static int binarySearch (T[] array, int startIndex, int endIndex, T value, Comparator<? super T> comparator)

Added in API level 9

Parameters
array the sorted array to search.
startIndex the inclusive start index.
endIndex the exclusive start index.
value the element to find.
comparator the Comparator used to compare the elements.
Returns
  • the non-negative index of the element, or a negative index which is -index - 1 where the element would be inserted.
Throws
ClassCastException if an element in the array or the search element does not implement Comparable, or cannot be compared to each other.
IllegalArgumentException if startIndex > endIndex
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException if startIndex < 0 || endIndex > array.length

public static boolean deepEquals (Object[] array1, Object[] array2)

Added in API level 1

Returns true if the two given arrays are deeply equal to one another. Unlike the method equals(Object[] array1, Object[] array2), this method is appropriate for use for nested arrays of arbitrary depth.

Two array references are considered deeply equal if they are both null, or if they refer to arrays that have the same length and the elements at each index in the two arrays are equal.

Two null elements element1 and element2 are possibly deeply equal if any of the following conditions satisfied:

element1 and element2 are both arrays of object reference types, and Arrays.deepEquals(element1, element2) would return true.

element1 and element2 are arrays of the same primitive type, and the appropriate overloading of Arrays.equals(element1, element2) would return true.

element1 == element2

element1.equals(element2) would return true.

Note that this definition permits null elements at any depth.

If either of the given arrays contain themselves as elements, the behavior of this method is uncertain.

Parameters
array1 the first Object array.
array2 the second Object array.
Returns
  • true if both arrays are null or if the arrays have the same length and the elements at each index in the two arrays are equal according to equals(), false otherwise.

public static int deepHashCode (Object[] array)

Added in API level 1

Returns a hash code based on the "deep contents" of the given array. If the array contains other arrays as its elements, the hash code is based on their contents not their identities. So it is not acceptable to invoke this method on an array that contains itself as an element, either directly or indirectly.

For any two arrays a and b, if Arrays.deepEquals(a, b) returns true, it means that the return value of Arrays.deepHashCode(a) equals Arrays.deepHashCode(b).

The computation of the value returned by this method is similar to that of the value returned by hashCode() invoked on a List containing a sequence of instances representing the elements of array in the same order. The difference is: If an element e of array is itself an array, its hash code is computed by calling the appropriate overloading of Arrays.hashCode(e) if e is an array of a primitive type, or by calling Arrays.deepHashCode(e) recursively if e is an array of a reference type. The value returned by this method is the same value as the method Arrays.asList(array).hashCode(). If the array is null, the return value is 0.

Parameters
array the array whose hash code to compute.
Returns
  • the hash code for array.

public static String deepToString (Object[] array)

Added in API level 1

Creates a "deep" String representation of the Object[] passed, such that if the array contains other arrays, the String representation of those arrays is generated as well.

If any of the elements are primitive arrays, the generation is delegated to the other toString methods in this class. If any element contains a reference to the original array, then it will be represented as "[...]". If an element is an Object[], then its representation is generated by a recursive call to this method. All other elements are converted via the valueOf(Object) method.

Parameters
array the Object array to convert.
Returns
  • the String representation of array.
