在 Java 中是否有与 memcpy()等价的东西?

我有一个字节[] ,并希望将其复制到另一个字节[]中。也许我在这里展示的是简单的“ C”背景,但是在 Java 中字节数组上是否存在与 memcpy ()等价的内容?

You might try System.arraycopy or make use of array functions in the Arrays class like java.util.Arrays.copyOf. Both should give you native performance under the hood.

Arrays.copyOf is probably favourable for readability, but was only introduced in java 1.6.

 byte[] src = {1, 2, 3, 4};
byte[] dst = Arrays.copyOf(src, src.length);
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(dst));

You can use System.arrayCopy. It copies elements from a source array to a destination array. The Sun implementation uses hand-optimized assembler, so this is fast.

Use System.arraycopy()

System.arraycopy(sourceArray,
sourceStartIndex,
targetArray,
targetStartIndex,
length);

Example,

String[] source = { "alpha", "beta", "gamma" };
String[] target = new String[source.length];
System.arraycopy(source, 0, target, 0, source.length);


or use Arrays.copyOf()
Example,

target = Arrays.copyOf(source, length);

java.util.Arrays.copyOf(byte[] source, int length) was added in JDK 1.6.

The copyOf() method uses System.arrayCopy() to make a copy of the array, but is more flexible than clone() since you can make copies of parts of an array.

If you just want an exact copy of a one-dimensional array, use clone().

byte[] array = { 0x0A, 0x01 };
byte[] copy = array.clone();

For other array copy operations, use System.arrayCopy/Arrays.copyOf as Tom suggests.

In general, clone should be avoided, but this is an exception to the rule.

Java actually does have something just like memcpy(). The Unsafe class has a copyMemory() method that is essentially identical to memcpy(). Of course, like memcpy(), it provides no protection from memory overlays, data destruction, etc. It is not clear if it is really a memcpy() or a memmove(). It can be used to copy from actual addresses to actual addresses or from references to references. Note that if references are used, you must provide an offset (or the JVM will die ASAP).

Unsafe.copyMemory() works (up to 2 GB per second on my old tired PC). Use at your own risk. Note that the Unsafe class does not exist for all JVM implementations.

Use byteBufferViewVarHandle or byteArrayViewVarHandle.

This will let you copy an array of "longs" directly to an array of "doubles" and similar with something like:

public long[] toLongs(byte[] buf) {
int end = buf.length >> 3;
long[] newArray = new long[end];
for (int ii = 0; ii < end; ++ii) {
newArray[ii] = (long)AS_LONGS_VH.get(buf, ALIGN_OFFSET + ii << 3);
}
}


private static final ALIGN_OFFSET = ByteBuffer.wrap(new byte[0]).alignmentOffset(8);
private static final VarHandle AS_LONGS_VH = MethodHandles.byteArrayViewVarHandle(long[].class, ByteOrder.nativeOrder());

This will let you do the bit hacking like:

float thefloat = 0.4;
int floatBits;
_Static_assert(sizeof theFloat == sizeof floatBits, "this bit twiddling hack requires floats to be equal in size to ints");
memcpy(&floatBits, &thefloat, sizeof floatBits);

No. Java does not have an equivalent to memcpy. Java has an equivalent to memmove instead.

If the src and dest arguments refer to the same array object, then the copying is performed as if the components at positions srcPos through srcPos+length-1 were first copied to a temporary array with length components and then the contents of the temporary array were copied into positions destPos through destPos+length-1 of the destination array.

It is very likely System.arraycopy will never have the same performance as memcpy if src and dest refer to the same array. Usually this will be fast enough though.

When you are using JDK 1.5+ You should use

System.arraycopy()

Instead of

Arrays.copyOfRange()

Beacuse Arrays.copyOfRange() wasn't added until JDK 1.6.So you might get

Java - “Cannot Find Symbol” error

when calling Arrays.copyOfRange in that version of JDK.
