Java泛型之类型擦除

学过C++模板的,在使用Java泛型的时候,会感觉到有点不疑问,例如:(1)无法定义一个泛型数组、无法调用泛型参数对象中对应的方法(当然,通过extends关键字是可以做到,只是比较麻烦);(2)ArrayList<Integer>和ArrayList<String>在运行时的类型是相同的。Java中的泛型有这些问题,是它的实现机制决定的,即“类型擦除”。
- 类型擦除的定义:编译通过后,准备进入JVM运行时,就不再有类型参数的概念,换句话说:每定义一个泛型类型,JVM会自动提供一个对应的原生类;
public class Holder4<T> {
private T a;
private T b;
private T c;
public Holder4(T a, T b, T c) {
this.a = a;
this.b = b;
this.c = c;
}
public T getA() {
return a;
}
public T getB() {
return b;
}
public T getC() {
return c;
}
public void setA(T a) {
this.a = a;
}
public void setB(T b) {
this.b = b;
}
public void setC(T c) {
this.c = c;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Holder4<Automobile> holder4 = new Holder4<>(new Automobile(),new Automobile(), new Automobile());
Automobile a = holder4.getA(); //编译器帮忙转型,不需要显式转型
Automobile b = holder4.getB();
Automobile c = holder4.getC();
}
}
在Java中,每定义一个泛型类型,就会自动提供一个对应的原始类型,例如:
public class Holder4Raw {
private Object a;
private Object b;
private Object c;
public Holder4Raw(Object a, Object b, Object c) {
this.a = a;
this.b = b;
this.c = c;
}
public Object getA() {
return a;
}
public Object getB() {
return b;
}
public Object getC() {
return c;
}
public void setA(Object a) {
this.a = a;
}
public void setB(Object b) {
this.b = b;
}
public void setC(Object c) {
this.c = c;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Holder4Raw holder4Raw = new Holder4Raw(new Automobile(),new Automobile(), new Automobile());
Automobile a = (Automobile) holder4Raw.getA(); //显示的转型
Automobile b = (Automobile) holder4Raw.getB();
Automobile c = (Automobile) holder4Raw.getC();
}
}
- 为什么选择这种实现机制?
- 在Java诞生10年后,才想实现类似于C++模板的概念,即泛型;
- Java的类库是Java生态中非常宝贵的财富,必须保证向后兼容(即现有的代码和类文件依旧合法)和迁移兼容(泛化的代码和非泛化的代码可互相调用)基于上面这两个背景和考虑,Java设计者采取了“类型擦除”这种折中的实现方式。
- Java泛型依赖编译器实现,只存在于编译期,JVM中没有泛型的概念;那么,编译器做了什么工作呢?(1)set方法是编译期检查;(2)get方法的返回值进行转型,编译器插入了一个checkcast语句。
我们通过字节码进行观察,可以看出:(1)Holder4和Holder4Raw两个类的字节码完全相同;(2)在main函数的33、41和49行就是编译器插入的checkcast语句;
