Thank you for reviews! Here's updated webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~tvaleev/webrev/8155600/r2/
AS> *) Does EA break if you make ArrayItr inner class to gain the access to AS> E[] a? No, I checked, it still allocates. AS> *) next(): Missing braces in throw new NSEE() block; Fixed AS> *) next(): Why loading this.a into local? Removed local a. Seems that this change does not affect the performance. AS> I agree with Aleksey but I'd go as far as to say that not only AS> this.a is unnecessary, but i as well. The body of next() looks too AS> elaborate. This seems equivalent and concise: AS> if (cursor >= a.length) { AS> throw new NoSuchElementException(); AS> } AS> return a[cursor++]; I tried to mimic java.util.ArrayList.iterator() implementation. Here I would agree with Peter Levart and leave local variable. AS> I think Arrays.asList is frequently used in tests already. But, a quick AS> boundary jtreg test would be nice to have, given now we have a special AS> iterator. Simple test is implemented. I did not find proper class to put it, so I created new class instead (test/java/util/Arrays/AsList.java). Please check. With best regards, Tagir Valeev.
