Field Detail

### data

    protected java.util.List data

  Storage for the data items in the series.

Constructor Detail

### ComparableObjectSeries

    public ComparableObjectSeries(java.lang.Comparable key)

  Creates a new empty series. By default, items added to the series will be sorted into ascending order by x-value, and duplicate x-values will be allowed (these defaults can be modified with another constructor.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the series key (`null` not permitted).

### ComparableObjectSeries

    public ComparableObjectSeries(java.lang.Comparable key,
                                  boolean autoSort,
                                  boolean allowDuplicateXValues)

  Constructs a new series that contains no data. You can specify whether or not duplicate x-values are allowed for the series.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the series key (`null` not permitted).
    `autoSort` - a flag that controls whether or not the items in the series are sorted.
    `allowDuplicateXValues` - a flag that controls whether duplicate x-values are allowed.

Method Detail

### getAutoSort

    public boolean getAutoSort()

  Returns the flag that controls whether the items in the series are automatically sorted. There is no setter for this flag, it must be defined in the series constructor.

  Returns:
    A boolean.

### getAllowDuplicateXValues

    public boolean getAllowDuplicateXValues()

  Returns a flag that controls whether duplicate x-values are allowed. This flag can only be set in the constructor.

  Returns:
    A boolean.

### getItemCount

    public int getItemCount()

  Returns the number of items in the series.

  Specified by:
    `getItemCount` in class `Series`
  Returns:
    The item count.

### getMaximumItemCount

    public int getMaximumItemCount()

  Returns the maximum number of items that will be retained in the series. The default value is `Integer.MAX_VALUE`.

  Returns:
    The maximum item count.
  See Also:
    `setMaximumItemCount(int)`

### setMaximumItemCount

    public void setMaximumItemCount(int maximum)

  Sets the maximum number of items that will be retained in the series. If you add a new item to the series such that the number of items will exceed the maximum item count, then the first element in the series is automatically removed, ensuring that the maximum item count is not exceeded.

  Typically this value is set before the series is populated with data, but if it is applied later, it may cause some items to be removed from the series (in which case a `SeriesChangeEvent` will be sent to all registered listeners.

  Parameters:
    `maximum` - the maximum number of items for the series.

### add

    protected void add(java.lang.Comparable x,
                       java.lang.Object y)

  Adds new data to the series and sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

  Throws an exception if the x-value is a duplicate AND the allowDuplicateXValues flag is false.

  Parameters:
    `x` - the x-value (`null` not permitted).
    `y` - the y-value (`null` permitted).

### add

    protected void add(java.lang.Comparable x,
                       java.lang.Object y,
                       boolean notify)

  Adds new data to the series and, if requested, sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

  Throws an exception if the x-value is a duplicate AND the allowDuplicateXValues flag is false.

  Parameters:
    `x` - the x-value (`null` not permitted).
    `y` - the y-value (`null` permitted).
    `notify` - a flag the controls whether or not a `SeriesChangeEvent` is sent to all registered listeners.

### add

    protected void add(ComparableObjectItem item,
                       boolean notify)

  Adds a data item to the series and, if requested, sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

  Parameters:
    `item` - the (x, y) item (`null` not permitted).
    `notify` - a flag that controls whether or not a `SeriesChangeEvent` is sent to all registered listeners.

### indexOf

    public int indexOf(java.lang.Comparable x)

  Returns the index of the item with the specified x-value, or a negative index if the series does not contain an item with that x-value. Be aware that for an unsorted series, the index is found by iterating through all items in the series.

  Parameters:
    `x` - the x-value (`null` not permitted).
  Returns:
    The index.

### update

    protected void update(java.lang.Comparable x,
                          java.lang.Object y)

  Updates an item in the series.

  Parameters:
    `x` - the x-value (`null` not permitted).
    `y` - the y-value (`null` permitted).
  Throws:
    `SeriesException` - if there is no existing item with the specified x-value.

### updateByIndex

    protected void updateByIndex(int index,
                                 java.lang.Object y)

  Updates the value of an item in the series and sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

  Parameters:
    `index` - the item (zero based index).
    `y` - the new value (`null` permitted).

### getDataItem

    protected ComparableObjectItem getDataItem(int index)

  Return the data item with the specified index.

  Parameters:
    `index` - the index.
  Returns:
    The data item with the specified index.

### delete

    protected void delete(int start,
                          int end)

  Deletes a range of items from the series and sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

  Parameters:
    `start` - the start index (zero-based).
    `end` - the end index (zero-based).

### clear

    public void clear()

  Removes all data items from the series and, unless the series is already empty, sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

### remove

    protected ComparableObjectItem remove(int index)

  Removes the item at the specified index and sends a `SeriesChangeEvent` to all registered listeners.

    The item removed.

### remove

    The item removed.

### equals

    public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

  Tests this series for equality with an arbitrary object.
