Objects

public final class Objects
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	java.util.Objects

This class consists of static utility methods for operating on objects, or checking certain conditions before operation. These utilities include null-safe or null-tolerant methods for computing the hash code of an object, returning a string for an object, comparing two objects, and checking if indexes or sub-range values are out-of-bounds.

Public methods

checkFromIndexSize

public static int checkFromIndexSize (int fromIndex, 
                int size, 
                int length)

Checks if the sub-range from fromIndex (inclusive) to fromIndex + size (exclusive) is within the bounds of range from 0 (inclusive) to length (exclusive).

The sub-range is defined to be out-of-bounds if any of the following inequalities is true:

fromIndex < 0
size < 0
fromIndex + size > length, taking into account integer overflow
length < 0, which is implied from the former inequalities

Parameters
`fromIndex`	`int`: the lower-bound (inclusive) of the sub-interval
`size`	`int`: the size of the sub-range
`length`	`int`: the upper-bound (exclusive) of the range

Returns
`int`	`fromIndex` if the sub-range within bounds of the range

Throws
`IndexOutOfBoundsException`	if the sub-range is out-of-bounds

checkFromToIndex

public static int checkFromToIndex (int fromIndex, 
                int toIndex, 
                int length)

Checks if the sub-range from fromIndex (inclusive) to toIndex (exclusive) is within the bounds of range from 0 (inclusive) to length (exclusive).

The sub-range is defined to be out-of-bounds if any of the following inequalities is true:

fromIndex < 0
fromIndex > toIndex
toIndex > length
length < 0, which is implied from the former inequalities

Parameters
`fromIndex`	`int`: the lower-bound (inclusive) of the sub-range
`toIndex`	`int`: the upper-bound (exclusive) of the sub-range
`length`	`int`: the upper-bound (exclusive) the range

Returns
`int`	`fromIndex` if the sub-range within bounds of the range

Throws
`IndexOutOfBoundsException`	if the sub-range is out-of-bounds

checkIndex

public static int checkIndex (int index, 
                int length)

Checks if the index is within the bounds of the range from 0 (inclusive) to length (exclusive).

The index is defined to be out-of-bounds if any of the following inequalities is true:

index < 0
index >= length
length < 0, which is implied from the former inequalities

Parameters
`index`	`int`: the index
`length`	`int`: the upper-bound (exclusive) of the range

Returns
`int`	`index` if it is within bounds of the range

Throws
`IndexOutOfBoundsException`	if the `index` is out-of-bounds

compare

public static int compare (T a, 
                T b, 
                Comparator<? super T> c)

Returns 0 if the arguments are identical and c.compare(a, b) otherwise. Consequently, if both arguments are null 0 is returned.

Note that if one of the arguments is null, a NullPointerException may or may not be thrown depending on what ordering policy, if any, the Comparator chooses to have for null values.

Parameters
`a`	`T`: an object
`b`	`T`: an object to be compared with `a`
`c`	`Comparator`: the `Comparator` to compare the first two arguments

Returns
`int`	0 if the arguments are identical and `c.compare(a, b)` otherwise.

Comparator

deepEquals

public static boolean deepEquals (Object a, 
                Object b)

Returns true if the arguments are deeply equal to each other and false otherwise. Two null values are deeply equal. If both arguments are arrays, the algorithm in Arrays#deepEquals(Object[], Object[]) is used to determine equality. Otherwise, equality is determined by using the Object#equals method of the first argument.

Parameters
`a`	`Object`: an object
`b`	`Object`: an object to be compared with `a` for deep equality

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if the arguments are deeply equal to each other and `false` otherwise

See also:

equals

public static boolean equals (Object a, 
                Object b)

Returns true if the arguments are equal to each other and false otherwise. Consequently, if both arguments are null, true is returned and if exactly one argument is null, false is returned. Otherwise, equality is determined by using the Object#equals method of the first argument.

Parameters
`a`	`Object`: an object
`b`	`Object`: an object to be compared with `a` for equality

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if the arguments are equal to each other and `false` otherwise

See also:

Object.equals(Object)

hash

public static int hash (Object... values)

Generates a hash code for a sequence of input values. The hash code is generated as if all the input values were placed into an array, and that array were hashed by calling Arrays#hashCode(Object[]).

This method is useful for implementing Object#hashCode() on objects containing multiple fields. For example, if an object that has three fields, x, y, and z, one could write:

 @Override public int hashCode() {
     return Objects.hash(x, y, z);
 }

Warning: When a single object reference is supplied, the returned value does not equal the hash code of that object reference. This value can be computed by calling hashCode(java.lang.Object).

Parameters
`values`	`Object`: the values to be hashed

Returns
`int`	a hash value of the sequence of input values

See also:

hashCode

public static int hashCode (Object o)

Returns the hash code of a non-null argument and 0 for a null argument.

Parameters
`o`	`Object`: an object

Returns
`int`	the hash code of a non-`null` argument and 0 for a `null` argument

See also:

Object.hashCode()

isNull

public static boolean isNull (Object obj)

Returns true if the provided reference is null otherwise returns false.

API Note:

This method exists to be used as a Predicate, filter(Objects::isNull)

Parameters
`obj`	`Object`: a reference to be checked against `null`

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if the provided reference is `null` otherwise `false`

See also:

Predicate

nonNull

public static boolean nonNull (Object obj)

Returns true if the provided reference is non-null otherwise returns false.

API Note:

This method exists to be used as a Predicate, filter(Objects::nonNull)

Parameters
`obj`	`Object`: a reference to be checked against `null`

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if the provided reference is non-`null` otherwise `false`

Predicate

requireNonNull

public static T requireNonNull (T obj, 
                String message)

Checks that the specified object reference is not null and throws a customized NullPointerException if it is. This method is designed primarily for doing parameter validation in methods and constructors with multiple parameters, as demonstrated below:

 public Foo(Bar bar, Baz baz) {
     this.bar = Objects.requireNonNull(bar, "bar must not be null");
     this.baz = Objects.requireNonNull(baz, "baz must not be null");
 }

Parameters
`obj`	`T`: the object reference to check for nullity
`message`	`String`: detail message to be used in the event that a `NullPointerException` is thrown

Returns
`T`	`obj` if not `null`

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `obj` is `null`

requireNonNull

public static T requireNonNull (T obj, 
                Supplier<String> messageSupplier)

Checks that the specified object reference is not null and throws a customized NullPointerException if it is.

Unlike the method requireNonNull(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String), this method allows creation of the message to be deferred until after the null check is made. While this may confer a performance advantage in the non-null case, when deciding to call this method care should be taken that the costs of creating the message supplier are less than the cost of just creating the string message directly.

Parameters
`obj`	`T`: the object reference to check for nullity
`messageSupplier`	`Supplier`: supplier of the detail message to be used in the event that a `NullPointerException` is thrown

Returns
`T`	`obj` if not `null`

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `obj` is `null`

requireNonNull

public static T requireNonNull (T obj)

Checks that the specified object reference is not null. This method is designed primarily for doing parameter validation in methods and constructors, as demonstrated below:

 public Foo(Bar bar) {
     this.bar = Objects.requireNonNull(bar);
 }

Parameters
`obj`	`T`: the object reference to check for nullity

Returns
`T`	`obj` if not `null`

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `obj` is `null`

requireNonNullElse

public static T requireNonNullElse (T obj, 
                T defaultObj)

Returns the first argument if it is non-null and otherwise returns the non-null second argument.

Parameters
`obj`	`T`: an object
`defaultObj`	`T`: a non-`null` object to return if the first argument is `null`

Returns
`T`	the first argument if it is non-`null` and otherwise the second argument if it is non-`null`

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if both `obj` is null and `defaultObj` is `null`

requireNonNullElseGet

public static T requireNonNullElseGet (T obj, 
                Supplier<? extends T> supplier)

Returns the first argument if it is non-null and otherwise returns the non-null value of supplier.get().

Parameters
`obj`	`T`: an object
`supplier`	`Supplier`: of a non-`null` object to return if the first argument is `null`

Returns
`T`	the first argument if it is non-`null` and otherwise the value from `supplier.get()` if it is non-`null`

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if both `obj` is null and either the `supplier` is `null` or the `supplier.get()` value is `null`

toString

public static String toString (Object o)

Returns the result of calling toString for a non-null argument and "null" for a null argument.

Parameters
`o`	`Object`: an object

Returns
`String`	the result of calling `toString` for a non-`null` argument and `"null"` for a `null` argument

See also:

toString

public static String toString (Object o, 
                String nullDefault)

Returns the result of calling toString on the first argument if the first argument is not null and returns the second argument otherwise.
