public ArrayUtil()
Method Detail

arraycopy

public static void arraycopy(byte[] src,
                             int src_position,
                             byte[] dst,
                             int dst_position,
                             int length)
This is really a debugging version of System.arraycopy(). Use it to provide better exception messages when copying arrays around. For production use it's better to use the original for speed.


arrayMoveWithin

public static void arrayMoveWithin(java.lang.Object[] array,
                                   int moveFrom,
                                   int moveTo,
                                   int numToMove)
Moves a number of entries in an array to another point in the array, shifting those inbetween as required.

Parameters:
array - The array to alter
moveFrom - The (0 based) index of the first entry to move
moveTo - The (0 based) index of the positition to move to
numToMove - The number of entries to move

copyOf

public static byte[] copyOf(byte[] source,
                            int newLength)
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. This method is temporary replace for Arrays.copyOf() until we start to require JDK 1.6.

Parameters:
source - the array to be copied
newLength - the length of the copy to be returned
Returns:
a copy of the original array, truncated or padded with zeros to obtain the specified length
Throws:
java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException - if newLength is negative
java.lang.NullPointerException - if original is null
