JDK源码阅读CopyOnWriteArrayList

CopyOnWriteArrayList是线程安全的
类的声明以及继承关系

public class CopyOnWriteArrayList< E >
    implements List<E>, RandomAccess, Cloneable, java.io.Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 8673264195747942595L;

    /** The lock protecting all mutators */
    final transient ReentrantLock lock = new ReentrantLock();

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

与ArrayList不同的是没有继承AbstractList，是为了线程安全这样设计，与Vector不同的是实现线程安全的方式为加锁而非是加关键字synchronized

增加

在末尾插入

 public boolean add(E e) {
        final ReentrantLock lock = this.lock;
        lock.lock();
        try {
            Object[] elements = getArray();
            int len = elements.length;
            Object[] newElements = Arrays.copyOf(elements, len + 1);
            newElements[len] = e;
            setArray(newElements);
            return true;
        } finally {
            lock.unlock();
        }
    }

在指定位置插入

  /**
     * Inserts the specified element at the specified position in this
     * list. Shifts the element currently at that position (if any) and
     * any subsequent elements to the right (adds one to their indices).
     *
     * @throws IndexOutOfBoundsException {@inheritDoc}
     */
    public void add(int index, E element) {
        final ReentrantLock lock = this.lock;
        lock.lock();
        try {
            Object[] elements = getArray();
            int len = elements.length;
            if (index > len || index < 0)
                throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException("Index: "+index+
                                                    ", Size: "+len);
            Object[] newElements;
            int numMoved = len - index;
            if (numMoved == 0)
                newElements = Arrays.copyOf(elements, len + 1);
            else {
                newElements = new Object[len + 1];
                System.arraycopy(elements, 0, newElements, 0, index);
                System.arraycopy(elements, index, newElements, index + 1,
                                 numMoved);
            }
            newElements[index] = element;
            setArray(newElements);
        } finally {
            lock.unlock();
        }
    }

其他的删除修改等也是使用锁机制，并调用本地方法复制以提高效率
