Class WrappableGrowableQueue_char

java.lang.Object
  streamit.misc.WrappableGrowableQueue_char

All Implemented Interfaces:

WrappableGrowableQueue

public class WrappableGrowableQueue_char
extends Object
implements WrappableGrowableQueue

This implements a queue that uses a circular buffer which grows whenever the head reaches the tail. Note: This comment will appear in any WrappableGrowableQueue_*.java files, however the subsequent comments will only appear in this file. It should be understood that all of these classes are essentially the same thing and changes to one should be made to all of them. Note that the addition of generics in Java 1.5 won't help the situation because generics don't handle basic data types like int, double, float, etc, and we're using those precisely to avoid their Object counterparts.

WrappableGrowableQueue_char

public WrappableGrowableQueue_char()

Method Detail

enqueue

public void enqueue(char i)

dequeue

public char dequeue()

elem

public char elem(int index)

size

public int size()

Description copied from interface: WrappableGrowableQueue

Returns the number of elements currently stored in the queue.

Specified by:

size in interface WrappableGrowableQueue

Returns:

The number of elements in the queue.

setBufferSize

public void setBufferSize(int size)

Description copied from interface: WrappableGrowableQueue

Changes the size of the buffer used to hold the queue. This is the only function which somewhat exposes the internal workings of the object, and it is there as a performance measure so that objects which know they need a queue of a certain size can grow it to that size beforehand.

Specified by:

setBufferSize in interface WrappableGrowableQueue

Parameters:

size - The number of elements the buffer should be able to hold.
