- becoming more frequently used and there is no ambiguity in calling
parameters either - identity(label) vs identity(labelUList&).
Provide both int32 and int64 versions.
- shrink_to_fit()
corresponds to std::vector naming.
For DynamicList it is a *binding* request.
- shrink_unsafe()
simply adjusts the capacity() to match the
current size() without forcing a re-allocation.
Useful when collapsing to a non-dynamic list to avoid reallocation
and copying contents. The memory cleanup will still occur properly
at a later stage.
- DynamicList::swap(List&)
simple recovery of content into a non-dynamic List that also
ensures that the capacity is correctly updated.
STYLE: promote List::capacity() to public visibility (like std::vector)
STYLE: remove unused expandStorage() method
- simply a wrapper for resize(capacity())
- the size of a List often requires adjustment prior to an operation,
but old values (if any) are not of interest and will be overwritten.
In these cases can use the _nocopy versions to avoid additional memory
overhead of the intermediate list and the copy/move overhead of
retaining the old values (that we will subsequently discard anyhow).
No equivalent for PtrList/UPtrList - this would be too fragile.
- add swap DynamicField with DynamicList
BUG: fixed Dynamic{Field,List} setCapacity corner case
- for the case when the newly requested capacity coincides with the
current addressable size, the resize of the underlying list would have
been bypassed - ie, the real capacity was not actually changed.
- remove (unused) PtrDynList setCapacity method as too fragile
