由于Java泛型的实现,你不能有这样的代码:
public class GenSet<E> {
private E a[];
public GenSet() {
a = new E[INITIAL_ARRAY_LENGTH]; // error: generic array creation
}
}
如何在保持类型安全的同时实现这一点?
我在Java论坛上看到一个解决方案是这样的:
import java.lang.reflect.Array;
class Stack<T> {
public Stack(Class<T> clazz, int capacity) {
array = (T[])Array.newInstance(clazz, capacity);
}
private final T[] array;
}
但我真的不明白这是怎么回事。
实际上,我找到了一个非常独特的解决方案来绕过无法初始化泛型数组的问题。你要做的是创建一个类,它接受泛型变量T,就像这样:
class GenericInvoker <T> {
T variable;
public GenericInvoker(T variable){
this.variable = variable;
}
}
然后在你的数组类中让它像这样开始:
GenericInvoker<T>[] array;
public MyArray(){
array = new GenericInvoker[];
}
启动一个新的泛型调用器[]将导致一个未检查的问题,但实际上不应该有任何问题。
要从数组中获取,你应该调用数组[i]。变量如下:
public T get(int index){
return array[index].variable;
}
剩下的,比如调整数组的大小可以用Arrays.copyOf()来完成,如下所示:
public void resize(int newSize){
array = Arrays.copyOf(array, newSize);
}
add函数可以这样添加:
public boolean add(T element){
// the variable size below is equal to how many times the add function has been called
// and is used to keep track of where to put the next variable in the array
arrays[size] = new GenericInvoker(element);
size++;
}
我想知道这段代码是否会创建一个有效的泛型数组?
public T [] createArray(int desiredSize){
ArrayList<T> builder = new ArrayList<T>();
for(int x=0;x<desiredSize;x++){
builder.add(null);
}
return builder.toArray(zeroArray());
}
//zeroArray should, in theory, create a zero-sized array of T
//when it is not given any parameters.
private T [] zeroArray(T... i){
return i;
}
编辑:也许另一种创建这样一个数组的方法,如果你所需要的大小是已知的和小的,将是简单地提供所需的“null”的数量到zeroArray命令?
虽然这显然不如使用createArray代码通用。
也许与这个问题无关,但当我得到“通用数组创建”错误使用
Tuple<Long,String>[] tupleArray = new Tuple<Long,String>[10];
我用@SuppressWarnings({"unchecked"})找到了以下作品(并为我工作):
Tuple<Long, String>[] tupleArray = new Tuple[10];
我必须反过来问一个问题:你的发电机组是“检查”还是“未检查”?
这是什么意思?
Checked: strong typing. GenSet knows explicitly what type of objects it contains (i.e. its constructor was explicitly called with a Class<E> argument, and methods will throw an exception when they are passed arguments that are not of type E. See Collections.checkedCollection.
-> in that case, you should write:
public class GenSet<E> {
private E[] a;
public GenSet(Class<E> c, int s) {
// Use Array native method to create array
// of a type only known at run time
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
final E[] a = (E[]) Array.newInstance(c, s);
this.a = a;
}
E get(int i) {
return a[i];
}
}
Unchecked: weak typing. No type checking is actually done on any of the objects passed as argument.
-> in that case, you should write
public class GenSet<E> {
private Object[] a;
public GenSet(int s) {
a = new Object[s];
}
E get(int i) {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
final E e = (E) a[i];
return e;
}
}
Note that the component type of the array should be the erasure of the type parameter:
public class GenSet<E extends Foo> { // E has an upper bound of Foo
private Foo[] a; // E erases to Foo, so use Foo[]
public GenSet(int s) {
a = new Foo[s];
}
...
}
所有这些都是由于Java中泛型的一个已知且刻意的弱点:它是使用擦除来实现的,因此“泛型”类不知道它们在运行时是用什么类型参数创建的,因此不能提供类型安全,除非实现了一些显式机制(类型检查)。
