Spliterators.AbstractIntSpliterator

public static abstract class Spliterators.AbstractIntSpliterator
extends Object implements Spliterator.OfInt

java.lang.Object
   ↳ java.util.Spliterators.AbstractIntSpliterator


An abstract Spliterator.OfInt that implements trySplit to permit limited parallelism.

To implement a spliterator an extending class need only implement tryAdvance. The extending class should override forEachRemaining if it can provide a more performant implementation.

Summary

Inherited constants

Protected constructors

AbstractIntSpliterator(long est, int additionalCharacteristics)

Creates a spliterator reporting the given estimated size and characteristics.

Public methods

int characteristics()

Returns a set of characteristics of this Spliterator and its elements.

long estimateSize()

Returns an estimate of the number of elements that would be encountered by a forEachRemaining(Consumer) traversal, or returns Long.MAX_VALUE if infinite, unknown, or too expensive to compute.

Spliterator.OfInt trySplit()

If this spliterator can be partitioned, returns a Spliterator covering elements, that will, upon return from this method, not be covered by this Spliterator. This implementation permits limited parallelism.

AbstractIntSpliterator

Added in API level 24
protected AbstractIntSpliterator (long est, 
                int additionalCharacteristics)

Creates a spliterator reporting the given estimated size and characteristics.

Parameters
est long: the estimated size of this spliterator if known, otherwise Long.MAX_VALUE.

additionalCharacteristics int: properties of this spliterator's source or elements. If SIZED is reported then this spliterator will additionally report SUBSIZED.

Public methods

characteristics

Added in API level 24
public int characteristics ()

Returns a set of characteristics of this Spliterator and its elements. The result is represented as ORed values from ORDERED, DISTINCT, SORTED, SIZED, NONNULL, IMMUTABLE, CONCURRENT, SUBSIZED. Repeated calls to characteristics() on a given spliterator, prior to or in-between calls to trySplit, should always return the same result.

If a Spliterator reports an inconsistent set of characteristics (either those returned from a single invocation or across multiple invocations), no guarantees can be made about any computation using this Spliterator.

Implementation Requirements:
  • This implementation returns the characteristics as reported when created.
Returns
int a representation of characteristics

estimateSize

Added in API level 24
public long estimateSize ()

Returns an estimate of the number of elements that would be encountered by a forEachRemaining(Consumer) traversal, or returns Long.MAX_VALUE if infinite, unknown, or too expensive to compute.

If this Spliterator is SIZED and has not yet been partially traversed or split, or this Spliterator is SUBSIZED and has not yet been partially traversed, this estimate must be an accurate count of elements that would be encountered by a complete traversal. Otherwise, this estimate may be arbitrarily inaccurate, but must decrease as specified across invocations of trySplit().

Implementation Requirements:
  • This implementation returns the estimated size as reported when created and, if the estimate size is known, decreases in size when split.
Returns
long the estimated size, or Long.MAX_VALUE if infinite, unknown, or too expensive to compute.

trySplit

Added in API level 24
public Spliterator.OfInt trySplit ()

If this spliterator can be partitioned, returns a Spliterator covering elements, that will, upon return from this method, not be covered by this Spliterator.

If this Spliterator is ORDERED, the returned Spliterator must cover a strict prefix of the elements.

Unless this Spliterator covers an infinite number of elements, repeated calls to trySplit() must eventually return null. Upon non-null return:

  • the value reported for estimateSize() before splitting, must, after splitting, be greater than or equal to estimateSize() for this and the returned Spliterator; and
  • if this Spliterator is SUBSIZED, then estimateSize() for this spliterator before splitting must be equal to the sum of estimateSize() for this and the returned Spliterator after splitting.

This method may return null for any reason, including emptiness, inability to split after traversal has commenced, data structure constraints, and efficiency considerations. This implementation permits limited parallelism.

Returns
Spliterator.OfInt a Spliterator covering some portion of the elements, or null if this spliterator cannot be split
