Field Detail

bitSet

protected BitSet bitSet

Set of bit values.

Constructor Detail

BitString

public BitString()

Constructs a new BitString that has no bits set.

BitString

public BitString(int nbits)

Constructs a new BitString that has no bits set, initialised to accommodate the given number of bits.

Parameters:

nbits - initial number of bits

Method Detail

length

public int length()

Returns the number of bits represented by this bit string.

Returns:

int length

get

public boolean get(int bitInteger)

Gets whether the bit for the given number is set or not.

Parameters:

bitInteger - the number of the bit to be got

Returns:

whether the bit is set

set

public BitString set(int bitInteger)

Sets the bit for the given number to true.

Parameters:

bitInteger - the number of the bit to be set

Returns:

this

clear

public BitString clear()

Clears all bits in this bit string.

Returns:

this

clear

public BitString clear(int bitInteger)

Clears the bit for the given number to false.

Parameters:

bitInteger - the number of the bit to be cleared

Returns:

this

nextSetBit

public int nextSetBit(int fromIndex)

Returns the index of the first bit that is set to true that occurs on or after the specified starting index. If no such bit exists then -1 is returned. To iterate over the true bits in a BitSet, use the following loop: for(int i=bs.nextSetBit(0); i>=0; i=bs.nextSetBit(i+1)) { // operate on index i here }

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string describing this set of bits, using numbers for bits. For example, "{1,3,4}" could be the string for a set of four bits in which the second bit is currently not set. The bits are described in order.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

String that describes this object

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Compares some other object to this one for equality by value (not reference).

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - other object

Returns:

whether this object has the same value as obj

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Gets a hash code value for this object.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

hash code of the value

clone

public BitString clone()

Constructs a copy of this.

Specified by:

clone in interface DataObject

Specified by:

clone in class AbstractDataObject

Returns:

a new object that is a deep copy of this object; for immutable objects, the same object may optionally be returned.

copyOf

public static BitString copyOf(BitString from)

Creates a new object of this type, initialising its field values from those of the given object.

Parameters:

from - the object from which to copy

Returns:

new BitString
