CopyOnWriteArraySet介绍
它是线程安全的无序的集合,可以将它理解成线程安全的HashSet。有意思的是,CopyOnWriteArraySet和HashSet虽然都继承于共同的父类AbstractSet;但是,HashSet是通过“散列表(HashMap)”实现的,而CopyOnWriteArraySet则是通过“动态数组(CopyOnWriteArrayList)”实现的,并不是散列表。
和CopyOnWriteArrayList类似,CopyOnWriteArraySet具有以下特性:
1. 它最适合于具有以下特征的应用程序:Set
大小通常保持很小,只读操作远多于可变操作,需要在遍历期间防止线程间的冲突。
2. 它是线程安全的。
3.
因为通常需要复制整个基础数组,所以可变操作(add()、set() 和 remove() 等等)的开销很大。
4.
迭代器支持hasNext(), next()等不可变操作,但不支持可变 remove()等 操作。
5.
使用迭代器进行遍历的速度很快,并且不会与其他线程发生冲突。在构造迭代器时,迭代器依赖于不变的数组快照。
建议:在学习CopyOnWriteArraySet之前,先通过"Java 集合系列16之 HashSet详细介绍(源码解析)和使用示例"对HashSet进行了解。
CopyOnWriteArraySet原理和数据结构
CopyOnWriteArraySet的数据结构,如下图所示:
说明:
1. CopyOnWriteArraySet继承于AbstractSet,这就意味着它是一个集合。
2. CopyOnWriteArraySet包含CopyOnWriteArrayList对象,它是通过CopyOnWriteArrayList实现的。而CopyOnWriteArrayList本质是个动态数组队列,
所以CopyOnWriteArraySet相当于通过通过动态数组实现的“集合”!
CopyOnWriteArrayList中允许有重复的元素;但是,CopyOnWriteArraySet是一个集合,所以它不能有重复集合。因此,CopyOnWriteArrayList额外提供了addIfAbsent()和addAllAbsent()这两个添加元素的API,通过这些API来添加元素时,只有当元素不存在时才执行添加操作!
至于CopyOnWriteArraySet的“线程安全”机制,和CopyOnWriteArrayList一样,是通过volatile和互斥锁来实现的。这个在前一章节介绍CopyOnWriteArrayList时数据结构时,已经进行了说明,这里就不再重复叙述了。
CopyOnWriteArraySet函数列表
// 创建一个空 set。 CopyOnWriteArraySet() // 创建一个包含指定 collection 所有元素的 set。 CopyOnWriteArraySet(Collection<? extends E> c) // 如果指定元素并不存在于此 set 中,则添加它。 boolean add(E e) // 如果此 set 中没有指定 collection 中的所有元素,则将它们都添加到此 set 中。 boolean addAll(Collection<? extends E> c) // 移除此 set 中的所有元素。 void clear() // 如果此 set 包含指定元素,则返回 true。 boolean contains(Object o) // 如果此 set 包含指定 collection 的所有元素,则返回 true。 boolean containsAll(Collection<?> c) // 比较指定对象与此 set 的相等性。 boolean equals(Object o) // 如果此 set 不包含任何元素,则返回 true。 boolean isEmpty() // 返回按照元素添加顺序在此 set 中包含的元素上进行迭代的迭代器。 Iterator<E> iterator() // 如果指定元素存在于此 set 中,则将其移除。 boolean remove(Object o) // 移除此 set 中包含在指定 collection 中的所有元素。 boolean removeAll(Collection<?> c) // 仅保留此 set 中那些包含在指定 collection 中的元素。 boolean retainAll(Collection<?> c) // 返回此 set 中的元素数目。 int size() // 返回一个包含此 set 所有元素的数组。 Object[] toArray() // 返回一个包含此 set 所有元素的数组;返回数组的运行时类型是指定数组的类型。 <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)

CopyOnWriteArraySet是通过CopyOnWriteArrayList实现的,它的API基本上都是通过调用CopyOnWriteArrayList的API来实现的。相信对CopyOnWriteArrayList了解的话,对CopyOnWriteArraySet的了解是水到渠成的事;所以,这里就不再对CopyOnWriteArraySet的代码进行详细的解析了。若对CopyOnWriteArrayList不了解,请参考“Java多线程系列--“JUC集合”02之 CopyOnWriteArrayList”。

(某一次)运行结果:

结果说明:
由于set是集合对象,因此它不会包含重复的元素。
如果将源码中的set改成HashSet对象时,程序会产生ConcurrentModificationException异常。
