| java.lang.Object | |
| ↳ | android.util.SparseLongArray |
SparseLongArrays map integers to longs. Unlike a normal array of longs, there can be gaps in the indices. It is intended to be more memory efficient than using a HashMap to map Integers to Longs, both because it avoids auto-boxing keys and values and its data structure doesn't rely on an extra entry object for each mapping.
Note that this container keeps its mappings in an array data structure, using a binary search to find keys. The implementation is not intended to be appropriate for data structures that may contain large numbers of items. It is generally slower than a traditional HashMap, since lookups require a binary search and adds and removes require inserting and deleting entries in the array. For containers holding up to hundreds of items, the performance difference is not significant, less than 50%.
It is possible to iterate over the items in this container using
keyAt(int) and valueAt(int). Iterating over the keys using
keyAt(int) with ascending values of the index will return the
keys in ascending order, or the values corresponding to the keys in ascending
order in the case of valueAt(int).

SparseLongArray ()
Creates a new SparseLongArray containing no mappings.
SparseLongArray (int initialCapacity)
Creates a new SparseLongArray containing no mappings that will not require any additional memory allocation to store the specified number of mappings. If you supply an initial capacity of 0, the sparse array will be initialized with a light-weight representation not requiring any additional array allocations.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
initialCapacity |
int

SparseLongArray clone ()
Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning
of "copy" may depend on the class of the object. The general
intent is that, for any object x, the expression:
will be true, and that the expression:x.clone() != x
will bex.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
true, but these are not absolute requirements.
While it is typically the case that:
will bex.clone().equals(x)
true, this is not an absolute requirement.
By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling
super.clone. If a class and all of its superclasses (except
Object) obey this convention, it will be the case that
x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass().
By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent
of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence,
it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned
by super.clone before returning it. Typically, this means
copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure"
of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these
objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only
primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually
the case that no fields in the object returned by super.clone
need to be modified.
The method clone for class Object performs a
specific cloning operation. First, if the class of this object does
not implement the interface Cloneable, then a
CloneNotSupportedException is thrown. Note that all arrays
are considered to implement the interface Cloneable and that
the return type of the clone method of an array type T[]
is T[] where T is any reference or primitive type.
Otherwise, this method creates a new instance of the class of this
object and initializes all its fields with exactly the contents of
the corresponding fields of this object, as if by assignment; the
contents of the fields are not themselves cloned. Thus, this method
performs a "shallow copy" of this object, not a "deep copy" operation.
The class Object does not itself implement the interface
Cloneable, so calling the clone method on an object
whose class is Object will result in throwing an
exception at run time.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
SparseLongArray |
a clone of this instance. |
void delete (int key)
Removes the mapping from the specified key, if there was any.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
key |
int
|
long get (int key)
Gets the long mapped from the specified key, or 0
if no such mapping has been made.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
key |
int
|
| Returns | |
|---|---|
long |
|
long get (int key,
long valueIfKeyNotFound)
Gets the long mapped from the specified key, or the specified value if no such mapping has been made.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
key |
int
|
valueIfKeyNotFound |
long
|
| Returns | |
|---|---|
long |
|
int indexOfKey (int key)
Returns the index for which keyAt(int) would return the
specified key, or a negative number if the specified
key is not mapped.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
key |
int
|
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
int indexOfValue (long value)
Returns an index for which valueAt(int) would return the
specified key, or a negative number if no keys map to the
specified value.
Beware that this is a linear search, unlike lookups by key,
and that multiple keys can map to the same value and this will
find only one of them.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
value |
long
|
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
int keyAt (int index)
Given an index in the range 0...size()-1, returns
the key from the indexth key-value mapping that this
SparseLongArray stores.
The keys corresponding to indices in ascending order are guaranteed to
be in ascending order, e.g., keyAt(0) will return the
smallest key and keyAt(size()-1) will return the largest
key.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
index |
int
|
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
void put (int key,
long value)
Adds a mapping from the specified key to the specified value, replacing the previous mapping from the specified key if there was one.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
key |
int
|
value |
long
|
void removeAt (int index)
Removes the mapping at the given index.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
index |
int
|
int size ()
Returns the number of key-value mappings that this SparseIntArray currently stores.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
String toString ()
Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the
toString method returns a string that
"textually represents" this object. The result should
be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a
person to read.
It is recommended that all subclasses override this method.
The toString method for class Object
returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the
object is an instance, the at-sign character `@', and
the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the
object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the
value of:
getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
This implementation composes a string by iterating over its mappings.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
String |
a string representation of the object. |
long valueAt (int index)
Given an index in the range 0...size()-1, returns
the value from the indexth key-value mapping that this
SparseLongArray stores.
The values corresponding to indices in ascending order are guaranteed
to be associated with keys in ascending order, e.g.,
valueAt(0) will return the value associated with the
smallest key and valueAt(size()-1) will return the value
associated with the largest key.
