Class Long

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable,Comparable<Long>
    public final classLongextendsNumberimplementsComparable<Long>
    TheLong class wraps a value of the primitive type long in an object. An object of typeLong contains a single field whose type islong.

    In addition, this class provides several methods for converting along to aString and aString to a long, as well as other constants and methods useful when dealing with along.

    Implementation note: The implementations of the "bit twiddling" methods (such ashighestOneBit andnumberOfTrailingZeros) are based on material from Henry S. Warren, Jr.'sHacker's Delight, (Addison Wesley, 2002).

        value - the value to be represented by theLong object.

      • Long

        @Deprecated(since="9")public Long​(String s)     throwsNumberFormatException
        Deprecated.
        It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. UseparseLong(String) to convert a string to along primitive, or usevalueOf(String) to convert a string to aLong object.
        Constructs a newly allocatedLong object that represents thelong value indicated by theString parameter. The string is converted to along value in exactly the manner used by theparseLong method for radix 10.

      • toString

        public static String toString​(long i,                              int radix)
        Returns a string representation of the first argument in the radix specified by the second argument.

        If the radix is smaller thanCharacter.MIN_RADIX or larger thanCharacter.MAX_RADIX, then the radix10 is used instead.

        If the first argument is negative, the first element of the result is the ASCII minus sign'-' ('\u002d'). If the first argument is not negative, no sign character appears in the result.

        The remaining characters of the result represent the magnitude of the first argument. If the magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character'0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the magnitude will not be the zero character. The following ASCII characters are used as digits:

        0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
        These are'\u0030' through'\u0039' and'\u0061' through'\u007a'. Ifradix isN, then the firstN of these characters are used as radix-N digits in the order shown. Thus, the digits for hexadecimal (radix 16) are0123456789abcdef. If uppercase letters are desired, theString.toUpperCase() method may be called on the result:
        Long.toString(n, 16).toUpperCase()

        Parameters:
        i - along to be converted to a string.
        radix - the radix to use in the string representation.
        Returns:
        a string representation of the argument in the specified radix.

      • toUnsignedString

        public static String toUnsignedString​(long i,                                      int radix)
        Returns a string representation of the first argument as an unsigned integer value in the radix specified by the second argument.

        If the radix is smaller thanCharacter.MIN_RADIX or larger thanCharacter.MAX_RADIX, then the radix10 is used instead.

        Note that since the first argument is treated as an unsigned value, no leading sign character is printed.

        If the magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character'0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the magnitude will not be the zero character.

        The behavior of radixes and the characters used as digits are the same astoString.

        Parameters:
        i - an integer to be converted to an unsigned string.
        radix - the radix to use in the string representation.
        Returns:
        an unsigned string representation of the argument in the specified radix.

      • toHexString

        public static String toHexString​(long i)
        Returns a string representation of thelong argument as an unsigned integer in base 16.

        The unsignedlong value is the argument plus 264 if the argument is negative; otherwise, it is equal to the argument. This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits in hexadecimal (base 16) with no extra leading0s.

        The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned strings by callingLong.parseUnsignedLong(s, 16).

        If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character'0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The following characters are used as hexadecimal digits:

        0123456789abcdef
        These are the characters'\u0030' through'\u0039' and'\u0061' through'\u0066'. If uppercase letters are desired, theString.toUpperCase() method may be called on the result:
        Long.toHexString(n).toUpperCase()

        Parameters:
        i - along to be converted to a string.
        Returns:
        the string representation of the unsignedlong value represented by the argument in hexadecimal (base 16).

        public static String toOctalString​(long i)
        Returns a string representation of thelong argument as an unsigned integer in base 8.

        The unsignedlong value is the argument plus 264 if the argument is negative; otherwise, it is equal to the argument. This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits in octal (base 8) with no extra leading0s.

        The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned strings by callingLong.parseUnsignedLong(s, 8).

        If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character'0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The following characters are used as octal digits:

        01234567
        These are the characters'\u0030' through'\u0037'.

        Parameters:
        i - along to be converted to a string.
        Returns:
        the string representation of the unsignedlong value represented by the argument in octal (base 8).

        public static long parseUnsignedLong​(String s)                              throwsNumberFormatException
        Parses the string argument as an unsigned decimallong. The characters in the string must all be decimal digits, except that the first character may be an ASCII plus sign '+' ('\u002B'). The resulting integer value is returned, exactly as if the argument and the radix 10 were given as arguments to theparseUnsignedLong(java.lang.String, int) method.
        Parameters:
        s - aString containing the unsignedlong representation to be parsed
        Returns:
        the unsignedlong value represented by the decimal string argument

      • valueOf

        public static Long valueOf​(long l)
        Returns aLong instance representing the specifiedlong value. If a newLong instance is not required, this method should generally be used in preference to the constructorLong(long), as this method is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance by caching frequently requested values. This method will always cache values in the range -128 to 127, inclusive, and may cache other values outside of this range.
        Parameters:
        l - a long value.

        The sequence of characters following an optional sign and/or radix specifier ("0x", "0X", "#", or leading zero) is parsed as by the Long.parseLong method with the indicated radix (10, 16, or 8). This sequence of characters must represent a positive value or aNumberFormatException will be thrown. The result is negated if first character of the specifiedString is the minus sign. No whitespace characters are permitted in theString.

        Parameters:
        nm - theString to decode.
        Returns:
        aLong object holding thelong value represented bynm

      • getLong

        public static Long getLong​(String nm)
        Determines thelong value of the system property with the specified name.

        The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through theSystem.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as a long value using the grammar supported bydecode and aLong object representing this value is returned.

        If there is no property with the specified name, if the specified name is empty ornull, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, thennull is returned.

        In other words, this method returns aLong object equal to the value of:

        getLong(nm, null)

        Parameters:
        nm - property name.
        Returns:
        theLong value of the property.
        Throws:
        SecurityException - for the same reasons asSystem.getProperty

      • getLong

        public static Long getLong​(String nm,                           long val)
        Determines thelong value of the system property with the specified name.

        The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through theSystem.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as a long value using the grammar supported bydecode and aLong object representing this value is returned.

        The second argument is the default value. ALong object that represents the value of the second argument is returned if there is no property of the specified name, if the property does not have the correct numeric format, or if the specified name is empty or null.

        In other words, this method returns aLong object equal to the value of:

        getLong(nm, new Long(val))
        but in practice it may be implemented in a manner such as:
         Long result = getLong(nm, null); return (result == null) ? new Long(val) : result;
        to avoid the unnecessary allocation of aLong object when the default value is not needed.

        Parameters:
        nm - property name.
        val - default value.
        Returns:
        theLong value of the property.
        Throws:
        SecurityException - for the same reasons asSystem.getProperty

        System.getProperty(java.lang.String),System.getProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)

      • getLong

        public static Long getLong​(String nm,Long val)
        Returns thelong value of the system property with the specified name. The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through theSystem.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as along value, as per thedecode method, and aLong object representing this value is returned; in summary:
        • If the property value begins with the two ASCII characters0x or the ASCII character#, not followed by a minus sign, then the rest of it is parsed as a hexadecimal integer exactly as for the methodvalueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 16.
        • If the property value begins with the ASCII character0 followed by another character, it is parsed as an octal integer exactly as by the methodvalueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 8.
        • Otherwise the property value is parsed as a decimal integer exactly as by the methodvalueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 10.

        Note that, in every case, neitherL ('\u004C') norl ('\u006C') is permitted to appear at the end of the property value as a type indicator, as would be permitted in Java programming language source code.

        The second argument is the default value. The default value is returned if there is no property of the specified name, if the property does not have the correct numeric format, or if the specified name is empty ornull.

        Parameters:
        nm - property name.
        val - default value.
        Returns:
        theLong value of the property.

        Parameters:
        x - the firstlong to compare
        y - the secondlong to compare

        Returns the unsigned quotient of dividing the first argument by the second where each argument and the result is interpreted as an unsigned value.

        Note that in two's complement arithmetic, the three other basic arithmetic operations of add, subtract, and multiply are bit-wise identical if the two operands are regarded as both being signed or both being unsigned. Therefore separate addUnsigned, etc. methods are not provided.

        Parameters:
        dividend - the value to be divided
        divisor - the value doing the dividing
        Returns:
