fail-fast

fail-fast

fail-fast机制是Java集合中的一种错误机制。

实例

容器在迭代过程中被修改时，就会抛出一个ConcurrentModificationException异常。

实现方式

将计数器的变化与容器关联起来：如果在迭代期间计数器被修改，那么hasNext或next将抛出ConcurrentModificationException。

    private class Itr implements Iterator<E> {
        /**
         * Index of element to be returned by subsequent call to next.
         */
        int cursor = 0;

        /**
         * Index of element returned by most recent call to next or
         * previous.  Reset to -1 if this element is deleted by a call
         * to remove.
         */
        int lastRet = -1;

        /**
         * The modCount value that the iterator believes that the backing
         * List should have.  If this expectation is violated, the iterator
         * has detected concurrent modification.
         */
        int expectedModCount = modCount;

        public boolean hasNext() {
            return cursor != size();
        }

        public E next() {
            checkForComodification();
            try {
                int i = cursor;
                E next = get(i);
                lastRet = i;
                cursor = i + 1;
                return next;
            } catch (IndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
                checkForComodification();
                throw new NoSuchElementException();
            }
        }

        public void remove() {
            if (lastRet < 0)
                throw new IllegalStateException();
            checkForComodification();

            try {
                AbstractList.this.remove(lastRet);
                if (lastRet < cursor)
                    cursor--;
                lastRet = -1;
                expectedModCount = modCount;
            } catch (IndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
                throw new ConcurrentModificationException();
            }
        }

        final void checkForComodification() {
            if (modCount != expectedModCount)
                throw new ConcurrentModificationException();
        }
    }

在调用next()和remove()的时候都会检查modCount和expectedModCount。

当涉及修改集合的元素个数时，modCount会加1。如果此时正在迭代，就会抛出异常，产生fail-fast。

解决方式

    public Iterator<E> iterator() {
        return new COWIterator<E>(getArray(), 0);
    }

    static final class COWIterator<E> implements ListIterator<E> {
        /** Snapshot of the array */
        private final Object[] snapshot;
        /** Index of element to be returned by subsequent call to next.  */
        private int cursor;

        private COWIterator(Object[] elements, int initialCursor) {
            cursor = initialCursor;
            snapshot = elements;
        }

        public boolean hasNext() {
            return cursor < snapshot.length;
        }

        public boolean hasPrevious() {
            return cursor > 0;
        }

        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        public E next() {
            if (! hasNext())
                throw new NoSuchElementException();
            return (E) snapshot[cursor++];
        }

        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        public E previous() {
            if (! hasPrevious())
                throw new NoSuchElementException();
            return (E) snapshot[--cursor];
        }

        public int nextIndex() {
            return cursor;
        }

        public int previousIndex() {
            return cursor-1;
        }

        /**
         * Not supported. Always throws UnsupportedOperationException.
         * @throws UnsupportedOperationException always; {@code remove}
         *         is not supported by this iterator.
         */
        public void remove() {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
        }

        /**
         * Not supported. Always throws UnsupportedOperationException.
         * @throws UnsupportedOperationException always; {@code set}
         *         is not supported by this iterator.
         */
        public void set(E e) {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
        }

        /**
         * Not supported. Always throws UnsupportedOperationException.
         * @throws UnsupportedOperationException always; {@code add}
         *         is not supported by this iterator.
         */
        public void add(E e) {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
        }

        @Override
        public void forEachRemaining(Consumer<? super E> action) {
            Objects.requireNonNull(action);
            Object[] elements = snapshot;
            final int size = elements.length;
            for (int i = cursor; i < size; i++) {
                @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") E e = (E) elements[i];
                action.accept(e);
            }
            cursor = size;
        }
    }

在CopyOnWriteArrayList的迭代器中没有比较两个modCount,如果在ArrayList中不比较两个modCount也不会抛出那个异常,所以报不报异常就看有没有比较modCount,因为这个异常是比较不一致以后人为主动扔出来的。

首先我们要知道ArrayList比较的目的是什么？保证数据一致性

现在的问题是为什么CopyOnWriteArrayList可以不比较modCount也能保证数据一致性？

array的类型是volatile的（强制内存一致性）

 /** The array, accessed only via getArray/setArray. */
    private transient volatile Object[] array;
