IGuardablePtr¶

public interface IGuardablePtr<T>¶: Interface for pointer objects that can be converted to guarded pointer objects.

Methods¶

getGuardHigh¶

public int getGuardHigh()¶

Returns the guarded pointer’s high endpoint (exclusive). Calling this method on a non-guarded pointer will result in an UnsupportedOperationException exception!

Returns:	the guarded pointer’s high endpoint (exclusive)

getGuardLow¶

public int getGuardLow()¶

Returns the guarded pointer’s low endpoint (inclusive). Calling this method on a non-guarded pointer will result in an UnsupportedOperationException exception!

Returns:	the guarded pointer’s low endpoint (inclusive)

getGuarded¶

public T getGuarded(int length)¶

Returns the guarded version of this pointer. This call is equivalent to getGuarded(0, length).

Parameters:	length – number of elements to enable access to
Returns:	guarded version of this pointer

getGuarded¶

public T getGuarded(int fromIndex, int toIndex)¶

Returns the guarded version of this pointer.

Parameters:	fromIndex – low endpoint (inclusive) of the pointer toIndex – high endpoint (exclusive) of the pointer
Returns:	guarded version of this pointer

isGuarded¶

public boolean isGuarded()¶

Returns true if this pointer’s read/write methods are index guarded. When a pointer is guarded, the index parameter of read/write calls is checked. Accessing elements which are out of bounds will result in an IndexOutOfBoundsException exception.

Returns:	`true` if this pointer’s read/write methods are index guarded
