Def Detail

override `def` ++ ( iter : scala.Iterable[A] ) : scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[A]

  Appends a number of elements provided by an iterable object via its `elements` method. The identity of the buffer is returned.

param:
  iter the iterable object.

override `def` ++: ( iter : scala.Iterable[A] ) : scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[A]

  Prepends a number of elements provided by an iterable object via its `elements` method. The identity of the buffer is returned.

param:
  iter the iterable object.

`def` +: ( elem : A ) : scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[A]

  Prepend a single element to this buffer and return the identity of the buffer.

param:
  elem the element to append.

`def` += ( elem : A ) : scala.Unit

  Append a single element to this buffer and return the identity of the buffer.

param:
  elem the element to append.

`def` clear : scala.Unit

  Clears the buffer contents.

override `def` clone : scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[A]

  Return a clone of this buffer.

return:
  an `ArrayBuffer` with the same elements.

override `def` equals ( obj : scala.Any ) : scala.Boolean

  Checks if two buffers are structurally identical.

return:
  true, iff both buffers contain the same sequence of elements.

`def` insertAll ( n : scala.Int , iter : scala.Iterable[A] ) : scala.Unit

  Inserts new elements at the index `n`. Opposed to method `update`, this method will not replace an element with a one. Instead, it will insert a new element at index `n`.

param:
  n the index where a new element will be inserted.
param:
  iter the iterable object providing all elements to insert.

`def` remove ( n : scala.Int ) : A

  Removes the element on a given index position.

param:
  n the index which refers to the element to delete.

override protected `def` stringPrefix : java.lang.String

  Defines the prefix of the string representation.

`def` update ( n : scala.Int , newelem : A ) : scala.Unit

  Replace element at index `n` with the new element `newelem`.

param:
  n the index of the element to replace.
param:
  newelem the new element.
