org.zkoss.poi.hssf.util.LazilyConcatenatedByteArray

public class LazilyConcatenatedByteArray
extends Object

Utility for delaying the concatenation of multiple byte arrays. Doing this up-front causes significantly more copying, which for a large number of byte arrays can cost a large amount of time.

Method Detail

clear

public void clear()

Clears the array (sets the concatenated length back to zero.

concatenate

public void concatenate(byte[] array)

Concatenates an array onto the end of our array. This is a relatively fast operation.

Parameters:

array - the array to concatenate.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if array is null.

toArray

public byte[] toArray()

Gets the concatenated contents as a single byte array. This is a slower operation, but the concatenated array is stored off as a single array again so that subsequent calls will not perform additional copying.

Returns:

the byte array. Returns null if no data has been placed into it.
