Method Detail

create

java.lang.Object create(int size)

Create a list with the given size. All elements will be null. NOTE: This is different from ArrayList constructor where the argument is capacity. We decided to have size here to allow creation of Java array.

set

java.lang.Object set(java.lang.Object list,
                     int index,
                     java.lang.Object element)

Set the element at index. Returns the list.

resize

java.lang.Object resize(java.lang.Object list,
                        int newSize)

Resize the list. Returns the list. If the new size is bigger than the current size, new elements will be null. If the new size is smaller than the current size, elements at the end are truncated.
