SparseBooleanArray

open class SparseBooleanArray : Cloneable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.util.SparseBooleanArray

SparseBooleanArrays map integers to booleans. Unlike a normal array of booleans there can be gaps in the indices. It is intended to be more memory efficient than using a HashMap to map Integers to Booleans, both because it avoids auto-boxing keys and values and its data structure doesn't rely on an extra entry object for each mapping.

Note that this container keeps its mappings in an array data structure, using a binary search to find keys. The implementation is not intended to be appropriate for data structures that may contain large numbers of items. It is generally slower than a traditional HashMap, since lookups require a binary search and adds and removes require inserting and deleting entries in the array. For containers holding up to hundreds of items, the performance difference is not significant, less than 50%.

It is possible to iterate over the items in this container using keyAt(int) and valueAt(int). Iterating over the keys using keyAt(int) with ascending values of the index will return the keys in ascending order, or the values corresponding to the keys in ascending order in the case of valueAt(int).

Public constructors

SparseBooleanArray

Added in API level 1
SparseBooleanArray()

Creates a new SparseBooleanArray containing no mappings.

SparseBooleanArray

Added in API level 1
SparseBooleanArray(initialCapacity: Int)

Creates a new SparseBooleanArray containing no mappings that will not require any additional memory allocation to store the specified number of mappings. If you supply an initial capacity of 0, the sparse array will be initialized with a light-weight representation not requiring any additional array allocations.

Public methods

append

Added in API level 1
open fun append(
    key: Int,
    value: Boolean
): Unit

Puts a key/value pair into the array, optimizing for the case where the key is greater than all existing keys in the array.

clear

Added in API level 1
open fun clear(): Unit

Removes all key-value mappings from this SparseBooleanArray.

clone

Added in API level 1
open fun clone(): SparseBooleanArray
Return
SparseBooleanArray a clone of this instance.
Exceptions
java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException if the object's class does not support the Cloneable interface. Subclasses that override the clone method can also throw this exception to indicate that an instance cannot be cloned.

delete

Added in API level 1
open fun delete(key: Int): Unit

Removes the mapping from the specified key, if there was any.

equals

Added in API level 1
open fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

  • It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
  • It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
  • It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
  • It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
  • For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
obj the reference object with which to compare.
that This value may be null.
Return
Boolean true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

get

Added in API level 1
open fun get(key: Int): Boolean

Gets the boolean mapped from the specified key, or false if no such mapping has been made.

get

Added in API level 1
open fun get(
    key: Int,
    valueIfKeyNotFound: Boolean
): Boolean

Gets the boolean mapped from the specified key, or the specified value if no such mapping has been made.

hashCode

Added in API level 1
open fun hashCode(): Int
Return
Int a hash code value for this object.

indexOfKey

Added in API level 1
open fun indexOfKey(key: Int): Int

Returns the index for which keyAt would return the specified key, or a negative number if the specified key is not mapped.

indexOfValue

Added in API level 1
open fun indexOfValue(value: Boolean): Int

Returns an index for which valueAt would return the specified key, or a negative number if no keys map to the specified value. Beware that this is a linear search, unlike lookups by key, and that multiple keys can map to the same value and this will find only one of them.

keyAt

Added in API level 1
open fun keyAt(index: Int): Int

Given an index in the range 0...size()-1, returns the key from the indexth key-value mapping that this SparseBooleanArray stores.

The keys corresponding to indices in ascending order are guaranteed to be in ascending order, e.g., keyAt(0) will return the smallest key and keyAt(size()-1) will return the largest key.

For indices outside of the range 0...size()-1, the behavior is undefined for apps targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#P and earlier, and an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown for apps targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q and later.

put

Added in API level 1
open fun put(
    key: Int,
    value: Boolean
): Unit

Adds a mapping from the specified key to the specified value, replacing the previous mapping from the specified key if there was one.

removeAt

Added in API level 28
open fun removeAt(index: Int): Unit

Removes the mapping at the specified index.

For indices outside of the range 0...size()-1, the behavior is undefined.

setValueAt

Added in API level 29
open fun setValueAt(
    index: Int,
    value: Boolean
): Unit

Directly set the value at a particular index.

For indices outside of the range 0...size()-1, the behavior is undefined for apps targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#P and earlier, and an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown for apps targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q and later.

size

Added in API level 1
open fun size(): Int

Returns the number of key-value mappings that this SparseBooleanArray currently stores.

toString

Added in API level 1
open fun toString(): String

Returns a string representation of the object.

This implementation composes a string by iterating over its mappings.

Return
String a string representation of the object.

valueAt

Added in API level 1
open fun valueAt(index: Int): Boolean

Given an index in the range 0...size()-1, returns the value from the indexth key-value mapping that this SparseBooleanArray stores.

The values corresponding to indices in ascending order are guaranteed to be associated with keys in ascending order, e.g., valueAt(0) will return the value associated with the smallest key and valueAt(size()-1) will return the value associated with the largest key.

For indices outside of the range 0...size()-1, the behavior is undefined for apps targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#P and earlier, and an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown for apps targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q and later.
