如何将 TypedArray 复制到另一个 TypedArray 中？

Question

C# has a high performance array copying function to copy arrays in place :

Array.Copy(source, destination, length)

It's faster than doing it manually ie.:

for (var i = 0; i < length; i++)
    destination[i] = source[i];

I am looking for an equivalent high performance copy function to copy arrays in place , for Int32Array and Float32Array in JavaScript and can find no such function:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/TypedArray

The closest is copyWithin which only does a copy internally within an array.

Is there a built in high performance copy function for TypedArray s in place ?

Plan B, is there a built in high performance clone function instead? (EDIT: looks like slice() is the answer to that)

Answer 1

You're looking for .set which allows you to set the values of an array using an input array (or TypedArray), optionally starting at some offset on the destination array:

destination.set(source);
destination.set(source, offset);

Or, to set a limited amount of the input array:

destination.set(source.slice(limit), offset);

If you instead want to create a new TypedArray, you can simply use .slice :

source.slice();

Answer 2

You can clone an array using slice(0); .

var clone = myArray.slice(0);

And you can make it a native method:

Array.prototype.clone = function() {
    return this.slice(0);
};

Performance link comparing to loop

Answer 3

clone to an exist typedarray:

destination.set(source);
destination.set(source, offset);

clone to a new typedarray example: (It's fastest!)

var source = new Uint8Array([1,2,3]);
var cloned = new Uint8Array(source);
