public class Vector
extends Object
implements Cloneable, Serializable

The Vector class implements a growable array of
objects. Like an array, it contains components that can be
accessed using an integer index. However, the size of a
Vector can grow or shrink as needed to accommodate
adding and removing items after the Vector has been created.

Each vector tries to optimize storage management by maintaining a
capacity and a capacityIncrement. The
capacity is always at least as large as the vector
size; it is usually larger because as components are added to the
vector, the vector's storage increases in chunks the size of
capacityIncrement. An application can increase the
capacity of a vector before inserting a large number of
components; this reduces the amount of incremental reallocation.








capacityIncrement
The amount by which the capacity of the vector is automatically
incremented when its size becomes greater than its capacity.

elementCount
The number of valid components in the vector.

elementData
The array buffer into which the components of the vector are
stored.

capacity increment.

for equality using the equals method.

the search at index, and testing for equality using
the equals method.

elementData

protected Object elementData[]


The array buffer into which the components of the vector are
stored. The capacity of the vector is the length of this array buffer.


elementCount

protected int elementCount


The number of valid components in the vector.


capacityIncrement

protected int capacityIncrement


The amount by which the capacity of the vector is automatically
incremented when its size becomes greater than its capacity. If
the capacity increment is 0, the capacity of the
vector is doubled each time it needs to grow.
