public interface CharCollection extends java.util.Collection<java.lang.Character>, CharIterable
Collection
; provides some additional methods
that use polymorphism to avoid (un)boxing.
Additionally, this class defines strengthens (again) iterator()
and defines
a slightly different semantics for toArray(Object[])
.
Collection
Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
boolean |
add(char key) |
boolean |
addAll(CharCollection c) |
CharIterator |
charIterator()
Deprecated.
As of
fastutil 5, replaced by iterator() . |
boolean |
contains(char key) |
boolean |
containsAll(CharCollection c) |
CharIterator |
iterator()
Returns a type-specific iterator on the elements of this collection.
|
boolean |
rem(char 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(CharCollection c) |
boolean |
retainAll(CharCollection c) |
char[] |
toArray(char[] a)
Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
|
<T> T[] |
toArray(T[] a)
Returns an containing the items of this collection;
the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array.
|
char[] |
toCharArray()
Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
|
char[] |
toCharArray(char[] a)
Returns a primitive type array containing the items of this collection.
|
CharIterator iterator()
Note that this specification strengthens the one given in
Iterable.iterator()
, which was already
strengthened in the corresponding type-specific class,
but was weakened by the fact that this interface extends Collection
.

value will be added after the last one.
