Core Java (二十五) List与Array的相互转化，Set与Array的相互转换

List与Array的相互转化

List转化成Array

调用了List的toArray方法，有两个同名方法，其中Object[] toArray()返回一个Object类型的数组，但使用起来很不方便。另外一个是public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)，返回一个泛型数组T[].

Array转化成List

调用了Arrays类的静态方法asList，返回一个包装了普通java数组的List包装器。返回的对象不是ArrayList，而是一个视图对象，实现了Serializable接口即可序列化，并且实现了RandomAccess接口。

例子：

package com.xujin;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

public class LinkedListTest{
	public static void main(String...arg){		
		Employee jim = new Employee("Jim");
		Employee bob = new Employee("Bob");
		Employee gin = new Employee("Gin");
		
		
		/************List to Array********************************/
		List<Employee> staff = new ArrayList<Employee>();
		staff.add(jim);
		staff.add(bob);
		staff.add(gin);
		System.out.println(staff);//[Name:Jim, Name:Bob, Name:Gin]
		
		Employee[] e = new Employee[staff.size()];
		staff.toArray(e);
		for(Employee em : e)
			System.out.println(em);
		/*
		 * Name:Jim
		 * Name:Bob
		 * Name:Gin
		 * */
		
		
		/************Array to List********************************/
		List<Employee> arrayToList = Arrays.asList(e);
		System.out.println(arrayToList.get(2));//Name:Gin
		
	}
}

class Employee{		
	public Employee(String name){
		this.name = name;
	}

	public String getName(){
		return this.name;
	}
	
	public String toString(){
		return "Name:" + name;
	}
	
	private String name = "";//实例域初始化	
}

Set与Array的相互转换

与上面的相仿，Set转化成Array是调用的toArray的泛型方法，而Array转换成Set是调用的Array的asList方法。

例子：

此例子与上面的几乎一样，唯一的不同就是

/************Set to Array********************************/
Set<Employee> staff = new HashSet<Employee>();

结果也都一样。

package com.xujin;

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Set;

public class LinkedListTest{
	public static void main(String...arg){		
		Employee jim = new Employee("Jim");
		Employee bob = new Employee("Bob");
		Employee gin = new Employee("Gin");
		
		
		/************Set to Array********************************/
		Set<Employee> staff = new HashSet<Employee>();
		staff.add(jim);
		staff.add(bob);
		staff.add(gin);
		System.out.println(staff);//[Name:Jim, Name:Bob, Name:Gin]
		
		Employee[] e = new Employee[staff.size()];
		staff.toArray(e);
		for(Employee em : e)
			System.out.println(em);
		/*
		 * Name:Jim
		 * Name:Bob
		 * Name:Gin
		 * */
		
		
		/************Array to Set********************************/
		List<Employee> arrayToList = Arrays.asList(e);
		System.out.println(arrayToList.get(2));//Name:Gin
		
	}
}

class Employee{		
	public Employee(String name){
		this.name = name;
	}

	public String getName(){
		return this.name;
	}
	
	public String toString(){
		return "Name:" + name;
	}
	
	private String name = "";//实例域初始化	
}
