Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:ArrayReference [NONE]
All Superinterfaces: `Mirror`, `ObjectReference`, `Value` public interface ArrayReference extends ObjectReference Provides access to an array object and its components in the target VM. Each array component is mirrored by a `Value` object. The array components, in aggregate, are placed in `List` objects instead of arrays for consistency with the rest of the API and for interoperability with other APIs. Since: 1.3

### method:length() [NONE]
### length int length() Returns the number of components in this array. Returns: the integer count of components in this array.

### method:getValue(int) [NONE]
  ### getValue Value getValue (int index) Returns an array component value. Parameters: `index` - the index of the component to retrieve Returns: the `Value` at the given index. Throws: `IndexOutOfBoundsException` - if `index` is outside the range of this array, that is, if either of the following are true:
      index < 0
          index >= length()

### method:getValues() [NONE]
### getValues List<Value> getValues() Returns all of the components in this array. Returns: a list of `Value` objects, one for each array component ordered by array index. For zero length arrays, an empty list is returned.

### method:getValues(int,int) [NONE]
  ### getValues List<Value> getValues (int index, int length) Returns a range of array components. Parameters: `index` - the index of the first component to retrieve `length` - the number of components to retrieve, or -1 to retrieve all components to the end of this array. Returns: a list of `Value` objects, one for each requested array component ordered by array index. When there are no elements in the specified range (e.g. `length` is zero) an empty list is returned Throws: `IndexOutOfBoundsException` - if the range specified with `index` and `length` is not within the range of the array, that is, if either of the following are true:
      index < 0
          index > length()
  or if `length != -1` and either of the following are true:
      length < 0
          index + length >  length()

### method:setValue(int,com.sun.jdi.Value) [NONE]
  ### setValue void setValue (int index, Value value) throws InvalidTypeException, ClassNotLoadedException Replaces an array component with another value. Object values must be assignment compatible with the component type (This implies that the component type must be loaded through the declaring class's class loader). Primitive values must be either assignment compatible with the component type or must be convertible to the component type without loss of information. See JLS section 5.2 for more information on assignment compatibility. Parameters: `index` - the index of the component to set `value` - the new value Throws: `IndexOutOfBoundsException` - if `index` is outside the range of this array, that is, if either of the following are true:
      index < 0
          index >= length()
`InvalidTypeException` - if the type of `value` is not compatible with the declared type of array components. `ClassNotLoadedException` - if the array component type has not yet been loaded through the appropriate class loader. `VMCannotBeModifiedException` - if the VirtualMachine is read-only - see `VirtualMachine.canBeModified()`. See Also: `ArrayType.componentType()`

### method:setValues(java.util.List) [NONE]
### setValues void setValues (List<? extends Value> values) throws InvalidTypeException, ClassNotLoadedException Replaces all array components with other values. If the given list is larger in size than the array, the values at the end of the list are ignored. Object values must be assignment compatible with the element type (This implies that the component type must be loaded through the enclosing class's class loader). Primitive values must be either assignment compatible with the component type or must be convertible to the component type without loss of information. See JLS section 5.2 for more information on assignment compatibility. Parameters: `values` - a list of `Value` objects to be placed in this array. If `values.size()` is less that the length of the array, the first `values.size()` elements are set. Throws: `InvalidTypeException` - if any of the new `values` is not compatible with the declared type of array components. `ClassNotLoadedException` - if the array component type has not yet been loaded through the appropriate class loader. `VMCannotBeModifiedException` - if the VirtualMachine is read-only - see `VirtualMachine.canBeModified()`. See Also: `ArrayType.componentType()`

### method:setValues(int,java.util.List,int,int) [NONE]
  ### setValues void setValues (int index, List<? extends Value> values, int srcIndex, int length) throws InvalidTypeException, ClassNotLoadedException Replaces a range of array components with other values. Object values must be assignment compatible with the component type (This implies that the component type must be loaded through the enclosing class's class loader). Primitive values must be either assignment compatible with the component type or must be convertible to the component type without loss of information. See JLS section 5.2 for more information on assignment compatibility. Parameters: `index` - the index of the first component to set. `values` - a list of `Value` objects to be placed in this array. `srcIndex` - the index of the first source value to use. `length` - the number of components to set, or -1 to set all components to the end of this array or the end of `values` (whichever comes first). Throws: `InvalidTypeException` - if any element of `values` is not compatible with the declared type of array components. `IndexOutOfBoundsException` - if the array range specified with `index` and `length` is not within the range of the array, or if the source range specified with `srcIndex` and `length` is not within `values`, that is, if any of the following are true:
      index < 0
          index > length()
          srcIndex < 0
          srcIndex > values.size()
  or if `length != -1` and any of the following are true:
      length < 0
          index + length > length()
          srcIndex + length > values.size()
`VMCannotBeModifiedException` - if the VirtualMachine is read-only - see `VirtualMachine.canBeModified()`. `ClassNotLoadedException` See Also: `ArrayType.componentType()`
