java 深度复制对象

在Java中如何深度拷贝对象呢?

The java.lang.Object root superclass defines a clone() method that will, assuming the subclass implements the java.lang.Cloneable interface, return a copy of the object. While Java classes are free to override this method to do more complex kinds of cloning, the default behavior of clone() is to return a shallow copy of the object. This means that the values of all of the origical object’s fields are copied to the fields of the new object.

A property of shallow copies is that fields that refer to other objects will point to the same objects in both the original and the clone. For fields that contain primitive or immutable values (int, String,float, etc…), there is little chance of this causing problems. For mutable objects, however, cloning can lead to unexpected results. Figure 1 shows an example.

 Unfortunately, this approach has some problems, too:

1. It will only work when the object being copied, as well as all of the other objects references directly or indirectly by the object, are serializable. (In other words, they must implementjava.io.Serializable.) Fortunately it is often sufficient to simply declare that a given classimplements java.io.Serializable and let Java’s default serialization mechanisms do their thing.
2. Java Object Serialization is slow, and using it to make a deep copy requires both serializing and deserializing. There are ways to speed it up (e.g., by pre-computing serial version ids and defining custom readObject() and writeObject() methods), but this will usually be the primary bottleneck.
3. The byte array stream implementations included in the java.io package are designed to be general enough to perform reasonable well for data of different sizes and to be safe to use in a multi-threaded environment. These characteristics, however, slow downByteArrayOutputStream and (to a lesser extent) ByteArrayInputStream.

The first two of these problems cannot be addressed in a general way. We can, however, use alternative implementations of ByteArrayOutputStream and ByteArrayInputStream that makes three simple optimizations:

1. ByteArrayOutputStream, by default, begins with a 32 byte array for the output. As content is written to the stream, the required size of the content is computed and (if necessary), the array is expanded to the greater of the required size or twice the current size. JOS produces output that is somewhat bloated (for example, fully qualifies path names are included in uncompressed string form), so the 32 byte default starting size means that lots of small arrays are created, copied into, and thrown away as data is written. This has an easy fix: construct the array with a larger inital size.
2. All of the methods of ByteArrayOutputStream that modify the contents of the byte array aresynchronized. In general this is a good idea, but in this case we can be certain that only a single thread will ever be accessing the stream. Removing the synchronization will speed things up a little. ByteArrayInputStream‘s methods are also synchronized.
3. The toByteArray() method creates and returns a copy of the stream’s byte array. Again, this is usually a good idea: If you retrieve the byte array and then continue writing to the stream, the retrieved byte array should not change. For this case, however, creating another byte array and copying into it merely wastes cycles and makes extra work for the garbage collector.

An optimized implementation of ByteArrayOutputStream is shown in Figure 4.

 Figure 7. Testing the two deep copy implementations.

A few notes about this test:

• The object that we are copying is large. While somewhat random, it will generally have a serialized size of around 700 Kbytes.
• The most significant speed boost comes from avoid extra copying of data inFastByteArrayOutputStream. This has several implications:
  
  
  1. Using the unsynchronized FastByteArrayInputStream speeds things up a little, but the standard java.io.ByteArrayInputStream is nearly as fast.
  2. Performance is mildly sensitive to the initial buffer size in FastByteArrayOutputStream, but is much more sensitive to the rate at which the buffer grows. If the objects you are copying tend to be of similar size, copying will be much faster if you initialize the buffer size and tweak the rate of growth.
• Measuring speed using elapsed time between two calls to System.currentTimeMillis() is problematic, but for single-threaded applications and testing relatively slow operations it is sufficient. A number of commercial tools (such as JProfiler) will give more accurate per-method timing data.
• Testing code in a loop is also problematic, since the first few iterations will be slower until HotSpot decides to compile the code. Testing larger numbers of iterations aleviates this problems.
• Garbage collection further complicates matters, particularly in cases where lots of memory is allocated. In this example, we manually invoke the garbage collector after each copy to try to keep it from running while a copy is in progress.

These caveats aside, the performance difference is sigificant. For example, the code as shown in Figure 7 (on a 500Mhz G3 Macintosh iBook running OSX 10.3 and Java 1.4.1) reveals that the unoptimized version requires about 1.8 seconds per copy, while the optimized version only requires about 1.3 seconds. Whether or not this difference is signficant will, of course, depend on the frequency with which your application does deep copies and the size of the objects being copied.

For very large objects, an extension to this approach can reduce the peak memory footprint by serializing and deserializing in parallel threads. See "Low-Memory Deep Copy Technique for Java Objects" for more information.
