Name

SPVM::List - Dynamic Object Array

Usage

  use List;
  
  # Create an object list
  my $list = List->new;
  my $list = List->new([(object)Byte->new(1), Int->new(2), Long->new(3)]);

  # Create a Int list
  my $list = List->new([Int->new(1), Int->new(2), Int->new(3)]);
  
  # Create an object list with length
  my $list = List->new_len([], 3);

  # Create a Int list with length
  my $list = List->new_len(new Int[0], 3);

  # Get list length
  my $length = $list->length;
  
  # Push object value
  $list->push(Int->new(3));

  # Pop object value.
  my $element = $list->pop;

  # Unshift object value.
  $list->unshift(Int->new(3));
  
  # Shift object value.
  my $element = $list->shift;
  
  # Set object value.
  $list->set(2, Int->new(3));
  
  # Get object value.
  my $element = $list->get(2);

  # Insert object value
  $list->insert(1, Int->new(3));

  # Remove object value
  my $element = $list->remove(1);

  # Convert List to object array.
  my $int_array = $list->to_array;

  # Convert List to Int array.
  my $int_array = (Int[])$list->to_array;

Description

List is the dynamic object array that has a specified object array type.

Fields

capacity

  has capacity : ro int;

The capacity. This is the length of the internally reserved elements to extend the length of the list.

length

  has length : ro int;

The length of the list.

Class Methods

new

static method new : List ($array : object[] = undef, $capacity : int = -1);

Creates a new List object using "new_len".

The passed length to "new_len" is the length of $array. If the array is undef, the length is 0.

The element's addresses of the object array are copied to the elements of the the created array.

  # object[]
  my $list = List->new([(object)Byte->new(1), Int->new(2), Long->new(3)]);
  
  # Int[]
  my $list = List->new([Int->new(1), Int->new(2), Int->new(3)]);

new_len

static method new_len : List ($proto_array : object[], $length : int, $capacity : int = -1);

Creates a new StringList object with $protot_array, $length and $capacity.

If $protot_array is undefined, $protot_array is set to an object[] object.

If $capacity is less than 0, $capacity is set to the default value.

If $length is greater than $capacity, $capacity is set to the length.

Exceptions:

$length must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

Examples:

  # Create a Int list with length
  my $list = List->new_len(new Int[0], 3);

Instance Methods

get

method get : object ($index : int);

Gets the element of the position of $index.

Exceptions:

$index must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$index must be less than the length of $list. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

insert

method insert : void ($index : int, $element : object);

Inserts an $element to the position of $index.

Exceptions:

$index must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$index must be less than or equal to the length of $list. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

pop

method pop : object ();

Removes the last element and return it.

Exceptions:

The length of $list must be greater than 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

push

method push : void ($element : object);

Adds an $element after the end of the list.

remove

method remove : object ($index : int);

Removes the element at the position of $index and return it.

Exceptions:

$index must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$index must be less than the length of $list. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

replace

method replace : void ($index : int, $remove_length : int, $replace : string[]);

Replaces the elements of the range specified by $index and $length with $replace array.

Exceptions:

$index must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$remove_length must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$index + $removing length must be less than or equal to the length of $list. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

reserve

method reserve : void ($new_capacity : int);

If $new_capacity is greater than the capacity of the list, the capacity of the list is extended to $new_capacity.

resize

method resize : void ($new_length : int);

Resize the list with $new_length.

Exceptions:

$new_length must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

replace

method replace : void ($offset : int, $remove_length : int, $replace : object[]);

Replaces the elements of the range specified by $offset and $remove_length with the replacement array.

Exceptions:

$offset must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$remove_length must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$offset + $removing length must be less than or equal to the length of $list. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

set

method set : void ($index : int, $element : object);

Sets $element at the position of $index.

Exceptions:

$index must be greater than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

$index must be less than the length of $list. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

shift

method shift : object ();

Removes the first element and return it.

Exceptions:

The length of $list must be greater than 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

to_array

method to_array : object[] ();

Creates a new array and copies all elements of the list into the new array, and returns it.

unshift

method unshift : void ($element : object);

Inserts an $element at the beginning of the list.
