Builder

trait Builder[-A, +To] extends Growable[A]

Base trait for collection builders.

After calling result() the behavior of a Builder (which is not also a scala.collection.mutable.ReusableBuilder) is undefined. No further methods should be called. It is common for mutable collections to be their own non-reusable Builder, in which case result() simply returns this.

See also:

scala.collection.mutable.ReusableBuilder for Builders which can be reused after calling result()

Value members

Abstract methods

def clear(): Unit

Clears the contents of this builder.

Clears the contents of this builder. After execution of this method the builder will contain no elements.

Source:
Builder.scala
def result(): To

Result collection consisting of all elements appended so far.

Result collection consisting of all elements appended so far.

Concrete methods

def mapResult[NewTo](f: To => NewTo): Builder[A, NewTo]

A builder resulting from this builder my mapping the result using f.

A builder resulting from this builder my mapping the result using f.

Builder.scala
def sizeHint(size: Int): Unit

Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next result is called.

Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next result is called. Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Value parameters:
size

the hint how many elements will be added.

Source:
Builder.scala
final def sizeHint(coll: IterableOnce[_], delta: Int): Unit

Gives a hint that one expects the result of this builder to have the same size as the given collection, plus some delta.

Gives a hint that one expects the result of this builder to have the same size as the given collection, plus some delta. This will provide a hint only if the collection has a known size Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Value parameters:
coll

the collection which serves as a hint for the result's size.

delta

a correction to add to the coll.size to produce the size hint.

Source:
Builder.scala
final def sizeHintBounded(size: Int, boundingColl: Iterable[_]): Unit

Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next result is called, together with an upper bound given by the size of some other collection.

Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next result is called, together with an upper bound given by the size of some other collection. Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Value parameters:
boundingColl

the bounding collection. If it is an IndexedSeqLike, then sizes larger than collection's size are reduced.

size

the hint how many elements will be added.

def addAll(xs: IterableOnce[A]): Builder[A, To]

Adds all elements produced by an IterableOnce to this growable collection.

Adds all elements produced by an IterableOnce to this growable collection.

Value parameters:
xs

the IterableOnce producing the elements to add.

Returns:

the growable collection itself.

def addOne(elem: A): Builder[A, To]

Adds a single element to this growable collection.

Adds a single element to this growable collection.

Value parameters:
elem

the element to add.

Returns:

the growable collection itself

Inherited from:
Growable
Source:
