## Class ArrayBuilders

- java.lang.Object
- - org.codehaus.jackson.map.util.ArrayBuilders

-     public final class ArrayBuilders
      extends Object

  Helper class that contains set of distinct builders for different arrays of primitive values. It also provides trivially simple reuse scheme, which assumes that caller knows not to use instances concurrently (which works ok with primitive arrays since they can not contain other non-primitive types).

    - #### getDoubleBuilder

          public ArrayBuilders.DoubleBuilder getDoubleBuilder()

    - #### arrayToSet

          public static <T> HashSet<T> arrayToSet(T[] elements)

    - #### addToList

          public static <T> List<T> addToList(List<T> list,
                              T element)

      Helper method for adding specified element to a List, but also considering case where the List may not have been yet constructed (that is, null is passed instead).
      Parameters:
        `list` - List to add to; may be null to indicate that a new List is to be constructed
        `element` - Element to add to list
      Returns:
        List in which element was added; either `list` (if it was not null), or a newly constructed List.

    - #### insertInList

          public static <T> T[] insertInList(T[] array,
                             T element)

      Helper method for constructing a new array that contains specified element followed by contents of the given array. No checking is done to see if element being inserted is duplicate.

    - #### insertInListNoDup

          public static <T> T[] insertInListNoDup(T[] array,
                                  T element)

      Helper method for constructing a new array that contains specified element followed by contents of the given array but never contains duplicates. If element already existed, one of two things happens: if the element was already the first one in array, array is returned as is; but if not, a new copy is created in which element has moved as the head.

    - #### arrayAsIterator

          public static <T> Iterator<T> arrayAsIterator(T[] array)

      Helper method for exposing contents of arrays using a read-only iterator
      Since:
        1.7

    - #### arrayAsIterable

          public static <T> Iterable<T> arrayAsIterable(T[] array)
