ShortBuffer compareTo method in Java with Examples
Last Updated :

The compareTo() method of java.nio.ShortBuffer class is used to compare one buffer to another. Two short buffers are compared by comparing their sequences of remaining elements lexicographically, without regard to the starting position of each sequence within its corresponding buffer. Pairs of short elements are compared as if by invoking Short.compare(short, short). A short buffer is not comparable to any other type of object. Syntax:
public int compareTo(ShortBuffer that)
Parameter: This method takes a shortbuffer object as a parameter with which this buffer will be compared. Return Value: This method returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this buffer is less than, equal to, or greater than the given buffer. Below are the examples to illustrate the compareTo() method: Program 1: When both FloatBuffer are equal.
Java
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int capacity1 = 3 ;
try {
ShortBuffer sb = ShortBuffer.allocate(capacity1);
sb.put(( short ) 956 );
sb.put(( short ) 761 );
sb.put(( short ) 461 );
sb.rewind();
System.out.println(" ShortBuffer sb: "
+ Arrays.toString(sb.array()));
ShortBuffer sb1 = ShortBuffer.allocate(capacity1);
sb1.put(( short ) 956 );
sb1.put(( short ) 761 );
sb1.put(( short ) 461 );
sb1.rewind();
System.out.println(" ShortBuffer sb1: "
+ Arrays.toString(sb1.array()));
int i = sb.compareTo(sb1);
if (i == 0 )
System.out.println("\nboth buffer are lexicographically equal ");
else if (i >= 0 )
System.out.println("\nfb is lexicographically greater than fb1 ");
else
System.out.println("\nfb is lexicographically less than fb1 ");
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
System.out.println(" Exception throws : "
+ e);
}
catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) {
System.out.println(" Exception throws : "
+ e);
}
}
}
|
Output:
ShortBuffer sb: [956, 761, 461]
ShortBuffer sb1: [956, 761, 461]
both buffer are lexicographically equal
Program 2: When this ShortBuffer is greater than the passed ShortBuffer
Java
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int capacity1 = 3 ;
try {
ShortBuffer sb = ShortBuffer.allocate(capacity1);
sb.put(( short ) 956 );
sb.put(( short ) 761 );
sb.put(( short ) 41 );
sb.rewind();
System.out.println(" ShortBuffer s: "
+ Arrays.toString(sb.array()));
ShortBuffer sb1 = ShortBuffer.allocate(capacity1);
sb1.put(( short ) 856 );
sb1.put(( short ) 761 );
sb1.put(( short ) 461 );
sb1.rewind();
System.out.println(" ShortBuffer sb1: "
+ Arrays.toString(sb1.array()));
int i = sb.compareTo(sb1);
if (i == 0 )
System.out.println("\nboth buffer are lexicographically equal ");
else if (i >= 0 )
System.out.println("\nfb is lexicographically greater than fb1 ");
else
System.out.println("\nfb is lexicographically less than fb1 ");
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
System.out.println(" Exception throws : "
+ e);
}
catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) {
System.out.println(" Exception throws : "
+ e);
}
}
}
|
Output:
ShortBuffer s: [956, 761, 41]
ShortBuffer sb1: [856, 761, 461]
fb is lexicographically greater than fb1
Program 3: When this ShortBuffer is less than the passed ShortBuffer
Java
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int capacity1 = 3 ;
try {
ShortBuffer sb = ShortBuffer.allocate(capacity1);
sb.put(( short ) 856 );
sb.put(( short ) 761 );
sb.put(( short ) 461 );
sb.rewind();
System.out.println(" ShortBuffer sb: "
+ Arrays.toString(sb.array()));
ShortBuffer sb1 = ShortBuffer.allocate(capacity1);
sb1.put(( short ) 956 );
sb1.put(( short ) 761 );
sb1.put(( short ) 461 );
sb1.rewind();
System.out.println(" ShortBuffer sb1: "
+ Arrays.toString(sb1.array()));
int i = sb.compareTo(sb1);
if (i == 0 )
System.out.println("\nboth buffer are lexicographically equal ");
else if (i >= 0 )
System.out.println("\nfb is lexicographically greater than fb1 ");
else
System.out.println("\nfb is lexicographically less than fb1 ");
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
System.out.println(" Exception throws : "
+ e);
}
catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) {
System.out.println(" Exception throws : "
+ e);
}
}
}

Output:
ShortBuffer sb: [856, 761, 461]
ShortBuffer sb1: [956, 761, 461]
fb is lexicographically less than fb1
