一、概念
类定义：
public class CopyOnWriteArrayList
implements List, RandomAccess, Cloneable, java.io.Serializable
- 实现了List接口，拥有一组List通用的操作。
- 实现了RandomAccess接口，可进行随机访问。
- 实现了Cloneable接口，可进行浅层次拷贝。
- 实现了Serializable接口，可进行序列化。
特点：
- 读取操作完全不用加锁。
- 写入操作不会阻塞读取操作。
- 只有写入操作与写入操作需要进行同步。
原理：
CopyOnWriteArrayList类的写操作是通过创建底层数组的新副本来实现的。当List需要被修改的时候，并不直接修改原有数组对象，而是对原有数据进行一次拷贝，将修改的内容写入副本中。写完之后，再将修改完的副本替换成原来的数据，这样就可以保证写操作不会影响读操作了。
在多线程环境中，如果线程A执行写操作（如add、set等）之前线程B执行了读操作（如get、iterator等），那么在线程A执行写操作完成并更新了底层数组后，线程B执行读操作使用的底层数组仍然是旧的那一份，这就是弱一致性。
二、使用
//TestCopyOnWriteArrayList
public class TestCopyOnWriteArrayList {
private static final String TAG = "CopyOnWriteArrayList";
private CopyOnWriteArrayList list = new CopyOnWriteArrayList();
public void testAdd() {
list.add(null);
list.add("AAA");
list.add("BBB");
list.addIfAbsent("CCC");
list.addIfAbsent("CCC");
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, add list: " + list);
}
public void testSet() {
list.set(1, "AAAAA");
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, set list: " + list);
}
public void testGet() {
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, get index 1: " + list.get(1));
}
public void testRemove() {
list.remove(null);
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, remove list: " + list);
}
public void testSize() {
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, size: " + list.size());
}
public void testListIterator() {
ListIterator listIterator = list.listIterator();
while (listIterator.hasNext()) {
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, listIterator item: " + listIterator.next());
}
}
}
//测试代码
private void testMethod() {
Log.d(TAG, "zwm, testMethod");
TestCopyOnWriteArrayList testCopyOnWriteArrayList = new TestCopyOnWriteArrayList();
testCopyOnWriteArrayList.testAdd();
testCopyOnWriteArrayList.testSet();
testCopyOnWriteArrayList.testGet();
testCopyOnWriteArrayList.testRemove();
testCopyOnWriteArrayList.testSize();
testCopyOnWriteArrayList.testListIterator();
}
//输出log

三、原理
重要参数
//锁对象
final transient ReentrantLock lock = new ReentrantLock();
//存放数据的数组
private transient volatile Object[] array;
构造函数
//创建一个元素个数为0的CopyOnWriteArrayList
public CopyOnWriteArrayList() {
setArray(new Object[0]);
}
//创建一个具有指定的Collection的元素的CopyOnWriteArrayList
public CopyOnWriteArrayList(Collection c) {

if (c.getClass() == CopyOnWriteArrayList.class)
elements = ((CopyOnWriteArrayList)c).getArray();
else {
elements = c.toArray();
// c.toArray might (incorrectly) not return Object[] (see 6260652)
if (elements.getClass() != Object[].class)
elements = Arrays.copyOf(elements, elements.length, Object[].class);
}
setArray(elements);
}
//创建一个具有指定的toCopyIn数组的元素的CopyOnWriteArrayList
public CopyOnWriteArrayList(E[] toCopyIn) {
setArray(Arrays.copyOf(toCopyIn, toCopyIn.length, Object[].class));
}
public boolean add(E e)
//插入一个元素

try {

int len = elements.length;
Object[] newElements = Arrays.copyOf(elements, len + 1); //进行拷贝
newElements[len] = e; //插入元素
setArray(newElements); //更新底层数组，使用新数组替换旧数组
return true;
} finally {
lock.unlock(); //在finally块中释放锁
}
}
public E set(int index, E element)

} else {
// Not quite a no-op; ensures volatile write semantics
setArray(elements);
}
return oldValue;
} finally {

//获取索引位置的元素，不需要加锁
public E get(int index) {

if (snapshot != current) findIndex: {
int prefix = Math.min(index, len);

}
if (index >= len)
return false;
if (current[index] == o)
break findIndex;
index = indexOf(o, current, index, len);
if (index < 0)
return false;
}
Object[] newElements = new Object[len - 1]; //创建新数组
System.arraycopy(current, 0, newElements, 0, index); //执行拷贝操作
