java中ArrayList的contains(obj)和indexOf(obj)方法的调用顺序

1.结论

ArrayList的contains(obj)和indexOf(obj)方法都是obj与数组中的每个元素进行比较，而不是数组中的每个元素和obj比较

2.官方源码

java.util.ArrayList<E>

 /**
     * Returns <tt>true</tt> if this list contains the specified element.
     * More formally, returns <tt>true</tt> if and only if this list contains
     * at least one element <tt>e</tt> such that
     * <tt>(o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e))</tt>.
     *
     * @param o element whose presence in this list is to be tested
     * @return <tt>true</tt> if this list contains the specified element
     */
    public boolean contains(Object o) {
        return indexOf(o) >= 0;
    }

    /**
     * Returns the index of the first occurrence of the specified element
     * in this list, or -1 if this list does not contain the element.
     * More formally, returns the lowest index <tt>i</tt> such that
     * <tt>(o==null ? get(i)==null : o.equals(get(i)))</tt>,
     * or -1 if there is no such index.
     */
    public int indexOf(Object o) {
        if (o == null) {
            for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
                if (elementData[i]==null)
                    return i;
        } else {
            for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
                if (o.equals(elementData[i]))
                    return i;
        }
        return -1;
    }

3.理解容易引发的错误

contains(obj)和indexOf(obj)都调用了obj的equals方法，如果错误地认为是数组中的每个元素和obj比较，

在equals()方法里面就会搞不清是哪个对象

在工作中遇到这个问题，特此记录
