Spliterator<Long>, Spliterator.OfLong, Spliterator.OfPrimitive<Long,LongConsumer,Spliterator.OfLong>

Enclosing class:

Spliterators

public abstract static class Spliterators.AbstractLongSpliterator
extends Object
implements Spliterator.OfLong

An abstract Spliterator.OfLong 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.

API Note:
This class is a useful aid for creating a spliterator when it is not possible or difficult to efficiently partition elements in a manner allowing balanced parallel computation.

An alternative to using this class, that also permits limited parallelism, is to create a spliterator from an iterator (see Spliterators.spliterator(java8.util.PrimitiveIterator.OfLong, long, int). Depending on the circumstances using an iterator may be easier or more convenient than extending this class. For example, if there is already an iterator available to use then there is no need to extend this class.

Constructor Detail

AbstractLongSpliterator

protected AbstractLongSpliterator(long est,
                                  int additionalCharacteristics)

Creates a spliterator reporting the given estimated size and characteristics.

Parameters:

est - the estimated size of this spliterator if known, otherwise Long.MAX_VALUE.

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

Method Detail

trySplit

public Spliterator.OfLong 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 Spliterator.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.

API Note:
An ideal trySplit method efficiently (without traversal) divides its elements exactly in half, allowing balanced parallel computation. Many departures from this ideal remain highly effective; for example, only approximately splitting an approximately balanced tree, or for a tree in which leaf nodes may contain either one or two elements, failing to further split these nodes. However, large deviations in balance and/or overly inefficient trySplit mechanics typically result in poor parallel performance. This implementation permits limited parallelism.

Specified by:

trySplit in interface Spliterator<Long>

Specified by:

trySplit in interface Spliterator.OfLong

Specified by:

trySplit in interface Spliterator.OfPrimitive<Long,LongConsumer,Spliterator.OfLong>

Returns:

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

estimateSize

public long estimateSize()

Returns an estimate of the number of elements that would be encountered by a Spliterator.forEachRemaining(java8.util.function.Consumer<? super T>) traversal, or returns Long.MAX_VALUE if infinite, unknown, or too expensive to compute.

If this Spliterator is Spliterator.SIZED and has not yet been partially traversed or split, or this Spliterator is Spliterator.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 Spliterator.trySplit().

API Note:
Even an inexact estimate is often useful and inexpensive to compute. For example, a sub-spliterator of an approximately balanced binary tree may return a value that estimates the number of elements to be half of that of its parent; if the root Spliterator does not maintain an accurate count, it could estimate size to be the power of two corresponding to its maximum depth.

Implementation Requirements:
This implementation returns the estimated size as reported when created and, if the estimate size is known, decreases in size when split.

Specified by:

estimateSize in interface Spliterator<Long>

Returns:

the estimated size, or Long.MAX_VALUE if infinite, unknown, or too expensive to compute.

characteristics

public int characteristics()

Returns a set of characteristics of this Spliterator and its elements. The result is represented as ORed values from Spliterator.ORDERED, Spliterator.DISTINCT, Spliterator.SORTED, Spliterator.SIZED, Spliterator.NONNULL, Spliterator.IMMUTABLE, Spliterator.CONCURRENT, Spliterator.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.

API Note:
The characteristics of a given spliterator before splitting may differ from the characteristics after splitting. For specific examples see the characteristic values Spliterator.SIZED, Spliterator.SUBSIZED and Spliterator.CONCURRENT.

Implementation Requirements:
This implementation returns the characteristics as reported when created.

Specified by:

characteristics in interface Spliterator<Long>

Returns:

a representation of characteristics

getExactSizeIfKnown

public long getExactSizeIfKnown()

Convenience method that returns Spliterator.estimateSize() if this Spliterator is Spliterator.SIZED, else -1.

Implementation Requirements:
The default implementation returns the result of estimateSize() if the Spliterator reports a characteristic of SIZED, and -1 otherwise.

Specified by:

getExactSizeIfKnown in interface Spliterator<Long>

Returns:

the exact size, if known, else -1.

hasCharacteristics

public boolean hasCharacteristics(int characteristics)

Returns true if this Spliterator's Spliterator.characteristics() contain all of the given characteristics.

Implementation Requirements:
The default implementation returns true if the corresponding bits of the given characteristics are set.

Specified by:

hasCharacteristics in interface Spliterator<Long>

Parameters:

characteristics - the characteristics to check for

Returns:

true if all the specified characteristics are present, else false

getComparator

public Comparator<? super Long> getComparator()

If this Spliterator's source is Spliterator.SORTED by a Comparator, returns that Comparator. If the source is SORTED in natural order, returns null. Otherwise, if the source is not SORTED, throws IllegalStateException.

Implementation Requirements:
The default implementation always throws IllegalStateException.

Specified by:

getComparator in interface Spliterator<Long>

Returns:

a Comparator, or null if the elements are sorted in the natural order.

forEachRemaining

public void forEachRemaining(LongConsumer action)

Performs the given action for each remaining element, sequentially in the current thread, until all elements have been processed or the action throws an exception. If this Spliterator is Spliterator.ORDERED, actions are performed in encounter order. Exceptions thrown by the action are relayed to the caller.

Implementation Requirements:
The default implementation repeatedly invokes Spliterator.OfPrimitive.tryAdvance(T_CONS) until it returns false. It should be overridden whenever possible.

Specified by:

forEachRemaining in interface Spliterator.OfLong

Specified by:

forEachRemaining in interface Spliterator.OfPrimitive<Long,LongConsumer,Spliterator.OfLong>

Parameters:

action - The action

forEachRemaining

public void forEachRemaining(Consumer<? super Long> action)

Performs the given action for each remaining element, sequentially in the current thread, until all elements have been processed or the action throws an exception. If this Spliterator is Spliterator.ORDERED, actions are performed in encounter order. Exceptions thrown by the action are relayed to the caller.

Implementation Requirements:
The default implementation repeatedly invokes Spliterator.tryAdvance(java8.util.function.Consumer<? super T>) until it returns false. It should be overridden whenever possible.

Implementation Requirements:
If the action is an instance of LongConsumer then it is cast to LongConsumer and passed to Spliterator.OfLong.forEachRemaining(java8.util.function.LongConsumer); otherwise the action is adapted to an instance of LongConsumer, by boxing the argument of LongConsumer, and then passed to Spliterator.OfLong.forEachRemaining(java8.util.function.LongConsumer).

forEachRemaining in interface Spliterator<Long>

Specified by:

forEachRemaining in interface Spliterator.OfLong

Parameters:

action - The action

tryAdvance

public boolean tryAdvance(Consumer<? super Long> action)
