  • Field Details

    • BYTES

      public static final int BYTES
      The number of bytes required to represent a primitive long value.

      Java 8 users: use Long#BYTES instead.

  • Method Details

    • hashCode

      public static int hashCode(long value)
      Returns a hash code for value; equal to the result of invoking ((Long) value).hashCode().

      This method always return the value specified by Long#hashCode() in java, which might be different from ((Long) value).hashCode() in GWT because Long#hashCode() in GWT does not obey the JRE contract.

      Java 8 users: use Long#hashCode(long) instead.

      Parameters:
      value - a primitive long value
      Returns:
      a hash code for the value

    • compare

      public static int compare(long a, long b)
      Compares the two specified long values. The sign of the value returned is the same as that of ((Long) a).compareTo(b).

      Note for Java 7 and later: this method should be treated as deprecated; use the equivalent Long#compare method instead.

      Parameters:
      a - the first long to compare
      b - the second long to compare
      Returns:
      a negative value if a is less than b; a positive value if a is greater than b; or zero if they are equal

      Parameters:
      array - an array of long values, possibly empty
      target - a primitive long value
      Returns:
      true if array[i] == target for some value of i

    • indexOf

      public static int indexOf(long[] array, long target)

    • indexOf

      public static int indexOf(long[] array, long[] target)
      Returns the start position of the first occurrence of the specified target within array, or -1 if there is no such occurrence.

      More formally, returns the lowest index i such that Arrays.copyOfRange(array, i, i + target.length) contains exactly the same elements as target.

      Parameters:
      array - the array to search for the sequence target
      target - the array to search for as a sub-sequence of array

    • lastIndexOf

      public static int lastIndexOf(long[] array, long target)
      Returns the index of the last appearance of the value target in array.
      Parameters:
      array - an array of long values, possibly empty
      target - a primitive long value
      Returns:
      the greatest index i for which array[i] == target, or -1 if no such index exists.

    • min

      public static long min(long... array)
      Returns the least value present in array.
      Parameters:
      array - a nonempty array of long values
      Returns:
      the value present in array that is less than or equal to every other value in the array

      Returns the value nearest to value which is within the closed range [min..max].

      If value is within the range [min..max], value is returned unchanged. If value is less than min, min is returned, and if value is greater than max, max is returned.

      Parameters:
      value - the long value to constrain
      min - the lower bound (inclusive) of the range to constrain value to

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if min > max
      Since:
      21.0

    • concat

      public static long[] concat(long[]... arrays)

    • toByteArray

      public static byte[] toByteArray(long value)
      Returns a big-endian representation of value in an 8-element byte array; equivalent to ByteBuffer.allocate(8).putLong(value).array(). For example, the input value 0x1213141516171819L would yield the byte array {0x12, 0x13, 0x14, 0x15, 0x16, 0x17, 0x18, 0x19}.

      If you need to convert and concatenate several values (possibly even of different types), use a shared java.nio.ByteBuffer instance, or use dev.mccue.guava.io.ByteStreams#newDataOutput() to get a growable buffer.

    • fromByteArray

      public static long fromByteArray(byte[] bytes)
      Returns the long value whose big-endian representation is stored in the first 8 bytes of bytes; equivalent to ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes).getLong(). For example, the input byte array {0x12, 0x13, 0x14, 0x15, 0x16, 0x17, 0x18, 0x19} would yield the long value 0x1213141516171819L.

      Arguably, it's preferable to use java.nio.ByteBuffer; that library exposes much more flexibility at little cost in readability.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if bytes has fewer than 8 elements

    • fromBytes

      public static long fromBytes(byte b1, byte b2, byte b3, byte b4, byte b5, byte b6, byte b7, byte b8)
      Returns the long value whose byte representation is the given 8 bytes, in big-endian order; equivalent to Longs.fromByteArray(new byte[] {b1, b2, b3, b4, b5, b6, b7, b8}).
      Since:
      7.0

    • tryParse

      @CheckForNull public static Long tryParse(String string)
      Parses the specified string as a signed decimal long value. The ASCII character '-' ( '\u002D') is recognized as the minus sign.

      Unlike Long#parseLong(String), this method returns null instead of throwing an exception if parsing fails. Additionally, this method only accepts ASCII digits, and returns null if non-ASCII digits are present in the string.

      Note that strings prefixed with ASCII '+' are rejected, even under JDK 7, despite the change to Long#parseLong(String) for that version.

      Parameters:
      string - the string representation of a long value
      Returns:
      the long value represented by string, or null if string has a length of zero or cannot be parsed as a long value
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if string is null
      Since:
      14.0

    • tryParse

      @CheckForNull public static Long tryParse(String string, int radix)
      Parses the specified string as a signed long value using the specified radix. The ASCII character '-' ('\u002D') is recognized as the minus sign.

      Unlike Long#parseLong(String, int), this method returns null instead of throwing an exception if parsing fails. Additionally, this method only accepts ASCII digits, and returns null if non-ASCII digits are present in the string.

      Note that strings prefixed with ASCII '+' are rejected, even under JDK 7, despite the change to Long#parseLong(String, int) for that version.

      Parameters:
      string - the string representation of a long value
      radix - the radix to use when parsing
      Returns:
      the long value represented by string using radix, or null if string has a length of zero or cannot be parsed as a long value
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if radix < Character.MIN_RADIX or radix > Character.MAX_RADIX
      NullPointerException - if string is null
      Since:
      19.0

    • stringConverter

      public static dev.mccue.guava.base.Converter<String,Long> stringConverter()
      Returns a serializable converter object that converts between strings and longs using Long#decode and Long#toString(). The returned converter throws NumberFormatException if the input string is invalid.

      Warning: please see Long#decode to understand exactly how strings are parsed. For example, the string "0123" is treated as octal and converted to the value 83L.

      Since:
      16.0

    • ensureCapacity

      public static long[] ensureCapacity(long[] array, int minLength, int padding)
      Returns an array containing the same values as array, but guaranteed to be of a specified minimum length. If array already has a length of at least minLength, it is returned directly. Otherwise, a new array of size minLength + padding is returned, containing the values of array, and zeroes in the remaining places.
      Parameters:
      array - the source array
      minLength - the minimum length the returned array must guarantee
      padding - an extra amount to "grow" the array by if growth is necessary
      Returns:
      an array containing the values of array, with guaranteed minimum length minLength
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if minLength or padding is negative

    • join

      public static String join(String separator, long... array)
      Returns a string containing the supplied long values separated by separator. For example, join("-", 1L, 2L, 3L) returns the string "1-2-3".
      Parameters:
      separator - the text that should appear between consecutive values in the resulting string (but not at the start or end)
      array - an array of long values, possibly empty

    • lexicographicalComparator

      public static Comparator<long[]> lexicographicalComparator()
      Returns a comparator that compares two long arrays lexicographically. That is, it compares, using #compare(long, long)), the first pair of values that follow any common prefix, or when one array is a prefix of the other, treats the shorter array as the lesser. For example, [] < [1L] < [1L, 2L] < [2L].

      The returned comparator is inconsistent with Object#equals(Object) (since arrays support only identity equality), but it is consistent with Arrays#equals(long[], long[]).

      Since:
      2.0

    • sortDescending

      public static void sortDescending(long[] array)
      Sorts the elements of array in descending order.
      Since:
      23.1

    • sortDescending

      public static void sortDescending(long[] array, int fromIndex, int toIndex)
      Sorts the elements of array between fromIndex inclusive and toIndex exclusive in descending order.
      Since:
      23.1

    • reverse

      public static void reverse(long[] array)
      Reverses the elements of array. This is equivalent to Collections.reverse(Longs.asList(array)), but is likely to be more efficient.
      Since:
      23.1

    • reverse

      public static void reverse(long[] array, int fromIndex, int toIndex)
      Reverses the elements of array between fromIndex inclusive and toIndex exclusive. This is equivalent to Collections.reverse(Longs.asList(array).subList(fromIndex, toIndex)), but is likely to be more efficient.
      Throws:
      IndexOutOfBoundsException - if fromIndex < 0, toIndex > array.length, or toIndex > fromIndex
      Since:
      23.1

    • rotate

      public static void rotate(long[] array, int distance)
      Performs a right rotation of array of "distance" places, so that the first element is moved to index "distance", and the element at index i ends up at index (distance + i) mod array.length. This is equivalent to Collections.rotate(Longs.asList(array), distance), but is considerably faster and avoids allocation and garbage collection.

      The provided "distance" may be negative, which will rotate left.

      Since:
      32.0.0

    • rotate

      public static void rotate(long[] array, int distance, int fromIndex, int toIndex)
      Performs a right rotation of array between fromIndex inclusive and toIndex exclusive. This is equivalent to Collections.rotate(Longs.asList(array).subList(fromIndex, toIndex), distance), but is considerably faster and avoids allocations and garbage collection.

      The provided "distance" may be negative, which will rotate left.

      Throws:
      IndexOutOfBoundsException - if fromIndex < 0, toIndex > array.length, or toIndex > fromIndex
      Since:
      32.0.0

    • toArray

      public static long[] toArray(Collection<? extends Number> collection)
      Returns an array containing each value of collection, converted to a long value in the manner of Number#longValue.

      Elements are copied from the argument collection as if by collection.toArray(). Calling this method is as thread-safe as calling that method.

      Parameters:
      collection - a collection of Number instances
      Returns:
      an array containing the same values as collection, in the same order, converted to primitives
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if collection or any of its elements is null
      Since:
      1.0 (parameter was Collection<Long> before 12.0)

    • asList

      public static List<Long> asList(long... backingArray)
      Returns a fixed-size list backed by the specified array, similar to Arrays#asList(Object[]). The list supports List#set(int, Object), but any attempt to set a value to null will result in a NullPointerException.

      The returned list maintains the values, but not the identities, of Long objects written to or read from it. For example, whether list.get(0) == list.get(0) is true for the returned list is unspecified.

      The returned list is serializable.

      Note: when possible, you should represent your data as an ImmutableLongArray instead, which has an ImmutableLongArray#asList asList view.

      Parameters:
      backingArray - the array to back the list
      Returns:
      a list view of the array
