Name

SPVM::ShortList - Dynamic short Array

Usage

  use ShortList;
  
  # Create a short list
  my $list = ShortList->new;
  my $list = ShortList->new([(short)1, 2, 3]);
  
  # Create a short list with array length
  my $list = ShortList->new_len(10);
  
  # Get list length
  my $length = $list->length;
  
  # Push value
  $list->push(3);
  
  # Pop value.
  my $element = $list->pop;
  
  # Unshift value.
  $list->unshift(3);
  
  # Shift value.
  my $element = $list->shift;
  
  # Set value.
  $list->set(2, 3);
  
  # Get value.
  my $element = $list->get(2);
  
  # Insert value
  $list->insert(1, 3);
  
  # Remove value
  my $element = $list->remove(1);
  
  # Convert list to array.
  my $array = $list->to_array;
  

Description

ShortList is a dynamic short array.

Enumerations

  enum {
    DEFAULT_CAPACITY = 4,
  }

DEFAULT_CAPACITY

The default capacity. The value is 4.

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.

values

  has values : ro short[];

The elements of the list. This is the internally used array, but it can be manipulated directly.

  my $elements = $list->values;
  $valeus->[0] = 5;

Class Methods

new

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

Create a new ShortList object using "new_len".

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

The elements of the array are copied to the values of the the created array.

Examples:

  my $list = ShortList->new;
  my $list = ShortList->new([(short)1, 2, 3]);

new_len

  static method new_len : ShortList ($length : int, $capacity = -1 : int);

Creates a new ShortList object with the $length and the $capacity.

If the $capacity is less than 0, the capacity is set to the value of "DEFAULT_CAPACITY".

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

Exceptions:

The $length must be greater than or equal to 0.

Instance Methods

get

  method get : int ($index : int);

Gets the element of the position of the $index.

Exceptions:

The $index must be greater than or equal to 0.

The $index must be less than the length of the $list.

insert

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

Inserts an $element to the position of the $index.

Exceptions:

The $index must be greater than or equal to 0.

The $index must be less than or equal to the length of the $list.

pop

  method pop : int ();

Removes the last element and return it.

Exceptions:

The length of the $list must be greater than 0.

push

  method push : void ($element : int);

Adds an $element after the end of the list.

remove

  method remove : int ($index : int);

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

Exceptions:

The $index must be greater than or equal to 0.

The $index must be less than the length of the $list.

replace

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

Replaces the elements of the range specified by the $offset and the $lenght with the $replace array.

Exceptions:

The $offset must be greater than or equal to 0.

The $remove_length must be greater than or equal to 0.

The $offset + the $removing lenght must be less than or equal to the length of the $list.

reserve

  method reserve : void ($new_capacity : int);

Reserves the elements with the $new_capacity.

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

Note that "values" is replaced with the new values and the values of the original list are copied to the new values in the above case.

Exceptions:

The $new_capacity must be greater than or equal to 0.

resize

  method resize : void ($new_length : int);

Resize the list with the $new_length.

Exceptions:

The $new_length must be greater than or equal to 0.

set

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

Sets the $element at the position of the $index.

Exceptions:

The $index must be greater than or equal to 0.

The $index must be less than the length of the $list.

set_array

  method set_array : void ($array : short[]);

Sets an $array. Each element of the $array is copied to the element of the list.

Exceptions:

The $array must be defined.

The length of the $array must be the $same as the length of the $list.

shift

  method shift : int ();

Removes the first element and return it.

Exceptions:

The length of the $list must be greater than 0.

to_array

  method to_array : short[] ();

Converts the list to an array.

unshift

  method unshift : void ($element : int);

Inserts an $element at the beginning of the list.
