ArrayRingbuffer (hazelcast-client-protocol 1.5.0-2 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.hazelcast.ringbuffer.impl.ArrayRingbuffer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Ringbuffer
```
public class ArrayRingbuffer
extends Object
implements Ringbuffer
```
The ArrayRingbuffer is responsible for storing the actual content of a ringbuffer.
Currently the Ringbuffer is not a partitioned data-structure. So all data of a ringbuffer is stored in a single partition and replicated to the replica's. No thread-safety is needed since a partition can only be accessed by a single thread at any given moment.
The ringItems is the ring that contains the actual items.

public ArrayRingbuffer(int capacity)
```
- Method Detail
  - tailSequence
```
public long tailSequence()
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Returns the sequence of the tail. The tail is the side of the ringbuffer where the items are added to.
    The initial value of the tail is -1.
    
    Specified by:
    
    tailSequence in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Returns:
    
    the sequence of the tail.
  - setTailSequence
```
public void setTailSequence(long sequence)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Sets the tail sequence. The tail sequence cannot be less than Ringbuffer.headSequence() - 1.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setTailSequence in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    sequence - the new tail sequence
  - headSequence
```
public long headSequence()
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Returns the sequence of the head. The head is the side of the ringbuffer where the oldest items in the ringbuffer are found.
    If the RingBuffer is empty, the head will be one more than the Ringbuffer.tailSequence().
    The initial value of the head is 0 (1 more than tail).
    
    Specified by:
    
    headSequence in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Returns:
    
    the sequence of the head.
  - setHeadSequence
```
public void setHeadSequence(long sequence)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Sets the head sequence. The head sequence cannot be larger than Ringbuffer.tailSequence() + 1
    
    Specified by:
    
    setHeadSequence in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    sequence - The new head sequence.
  - getCapacity
```
public long getCapacity()
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Returns the capacity of this Ringbuffer.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCapacity in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Returns:
    
    the capacity.
  - size
```
public long size()
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Returns number of items in the ringbuffer (meaning the number of items between the Ringbuffer.headSequence() and Ringbuffer.tailSequence()).
    
    Specified by:
    
    size in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Returns:
    
    the size.
  - isEmpty
```
public boolean isEmpty()
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Is the ring buffer empty.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isEmpty in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Returns:
    
    is the ring buffer empty
  - add
```
public long add(Object item)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Adds an item to the tail of the Ringbuffer. If there is no space in the Ringbuffer, the add will overwrite the oldest item in the ringbuffer. The method allows null values.
    The returned value is the sequence of the added item. Using this sequence you can read the added item.
    
    Using the sequence as id
    This sequence will always be unique for this Ringbuffer instance so it can be used as a unique id generator if you are publishing items on this Ringbuffer. However you need to take care of correctly determining an initial id when any node uses the ringbuffer for the first time. The most reliable way to do that is to write a dummy item into the ringbuffer and use the returned sequence as initial id. On the reading side, this dummy item should be discard. Please keep in mind that this id is not the sequence of the item you are about to publish but from a previously published item. So it can't be used to find that item.
    
    Specified by:
    
    add in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    item - the item to add.
    
    Returns:
    
    the sequence of the added item.
  - read
```
public Object read(long sequence)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Reads one item from the Ringbuffer.
    This method is not destructive unlike e.g. a queue.take. So the same item can be read by multiple readers or it can be read multiple times by the same reader.
    
    Specified by:
    
    read in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    sequence - the sequence of the item to read.
    
    Returns:
    
    the read item
  - checkBlockableReadSequence
```
public void checkBlockableReadSequence(long readSequence)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Check if the sequence can be read from the ring buffer or if the sequence is of the next item to be added into the ringbuffer. This method also allows the sequence to be one greater than the Ringbuffer.tailSequence(), giving the oportunity to block until the item is added into the ring buffer.
    
    Specified by:
    
    checkBlockableReadSequence in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    readSequence - the sequence wanting to be read
  - checkReadSequence
```
public void checkReadSequence(long sequence)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Check if the sequence can be read from the ring buffer.
    
    Specified by:
    
    checkReadSequence in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    sequence - the sequence wanting to be read
  - set
```
public void set(long seq,
                Object data)
```
    Description copied from interface: Ringbuffer
    
    Sets the item at the given sequence. The method allows null data.
    
    Specified by:
    
    set in interface Ringbuffer
    
    Parameters:
    
    seq - The target sequence.
    
    data - The data to be set
