Constructor Detail

BitArray

public BitArray(int length)
         throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Creates a BitArray of the specified size, initialized to zeros.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

BitArray

public BitArray(int length,
                byte[] a)
         throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Creates a BitArray of the specified size, initialized from the specified byte array. The most significant bit of a[0] gets index zero in the BitArray. The array a must be large enough to specify a value for every bit in the BitArray. In other words, 8*a.length >= length.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

BitArray

public BitArray(boolean[] bits)

Create a BitArray whose bits are those of the given array of Booleans.

Method Detail

get

public boolean get(int index)
            throws java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Returns the indexed bit in this BitArray.

Throws:

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

set

public void set(int index,
                boolean value)
         throws java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Sets the indexed bit in this BitArray.

Throws:

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

length

public int length()

Returns the length of this BitArray.

toByteArray

public byte[] toByteArray()

Returns a Byte array containing the contents of this BitArray. The bit stored at index zero in this BitArray will be copied into the most significant bit of the zeroth element of the returned byte array. The last byte of the returned byte array will be contain zeros in any bits that do not have corresponding bits in the BitArray. (This matters only if the BitArray's size is not a multiple of 8.)

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

toBooleanArray

public boolean[] toBooleanArray()

Return a boolean array with the same bit values a this BitArray.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for this bit array.

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a hash code value for this bit array.

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of this BitArray.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
