1.ArrayList继承AbstractList,实现List、RandomAccess、Cloneable、Serializable接口
public class ArrayList<E> extends AbstractList<E>
implements List<E>, RandomAccess, Cloneable, java.io.Serializable
2.底层数据结构是数组,所以是有序的。有多个构造器
/** * 默认初始容量. */ private static final int DEFAULT_CAPACITY = 10; /** * 底层数据结构,是一个数组 */ transient Object[] elementData; // non-private to simplify nested class access /** *包含的实际数量 * * @serial */ private int size; /** * 以指定的初始容量构造空数组 */ public ArrayList(int initialCapacity) { if (initialCapacity > 0) { this.elementData = new Object[initialCapacity]; } else if (initialCapacity == 0) { this.elementData = EMPTY_ELEMENTDATA; } else { throw new IllegalArgumentException("Illegal Capacity: "+ initialCapacity); } } /** * 默认构造器,初始容量为10 */ public ArrayList() { this.elementData = DEFAULTCAPACITY_EMPTY_ELEMENTDATA; } /** * 构造一个指定集合的数组 ,调用了 Arrays.copyOf()方法 */ public ArrayList(Collection<? extends E> c) { elementData = c.toArray(); if ((size = elementData.length) != 0) { // c.toArray might (incorrectly) not return Object[] (see 6260652) if (elementData.getClass() != Object[].class) elementData = Arrays.copyOf(elementData, size, Object[].class); } else { // replace with empty array. this.elementData = EMPTY_ELEMENTDATA; } }
3.扩容
private void grow(int minCapacity) { // overflow-conscious code int oldCapacity = elementData.length; int newCapacity = oldCapacity + (oldCapacity >> 1);//容量为原来的1.5倍 if (newCapacity - minCapacity < 0) newCapacity = minCapacity; if (newCapacity - MAX_ARRAY_SIZE > 0) newCapacity = hugeCapacity(minCapacity); // minCapacity is usually close to size, so this is a win: elementData = Arrays.copyOf(elementData, newCapacity);//扩展并复制 }
4.常用方法
size(), isEmpty(), get(), set()方法均能在常数时间内完成,add()方法的时间开销跟插入位置有关,addAll()方法的时间开销跟添加元素的个数成正比。其余方法大都是线性时间。为追求效率,ArrayList没有实现同步(synchronized),如果需要多个线程并发访问,用户可以手动同步,也可使用Vector替代。
