Arrays.copyOfRange(T[] original, int from, int to) has the following syntax.
public static <T> T[] copyOfRange(T[] original, int from, int to)
In the following code shows how to use Arrays.copyOfRange(T[] original, int from, int to) method.
/* w w w . j a v a 2 s. c om*/ import java.util.Arrays; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { short[] arr1 = new short[]{15, 10, 45}; System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr1)); // copying array arr1 to arr2 with range of index from 1 to 3 Object arr2 = Arrays.copyOfRange(arr1, 1, 3); // cast arr2 as short in order to be printable short[] arr3 = (short[]) arr2; System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr3)); } }
The code above generates the following result.
