    \class QJniArray
    \brief The QJniArray class is a template class that represents an array in Java.
    \inmodule QtCore
    \ingroup frameworks-technologies
    \since 6.8

    The QJniArray template makes it easy to work with Java methods that return
    or take a Java array.

    \note \l{Java arrays} can hold primitive types and objects. The array
    itself can be treated like a Java Object, and the JNI framework provides
    explicit APIs to work with such arrays. In addition, the Java class library
    provides container types such as \c{List} or \c{ArrayList}. Objects of
    those types can not be represented by a QJniArray. Instead, use QJniObject
    to call the class-specific member functions.

    To create a QJniArray instance, either construct it from a corresponding C++
    container:

    \code
    QList<int> intList;
    const QJniArray intArray = QJniArray(intList);
    \endcode

    or from an initializer list:

    \code
    const QJniArray intArray{1, 2, 3};
    \endcode

    QJniArray will create a new Java array and copy the C++-side data into it.

    When calling functions that return an array via QJniObject::callMethod,
    such as \c{char[] toCharArray()} in the Java \c{String} class, specify the
    return type as a C array (\c{jchar[]} in the following):

    \code
    const auto charArray = stringObject.callMethod<jchar[]>("toCharArray");
    \endcode

    The \c{charArray} variable will be of type \c{QJniArray<jchar>}, and hold
    a new global reference to the \c{jcharArray} JNI object.

    Note that the arrays in the code snippets above are all const. Accessing
    elements in a const array is considerably more efficient than operating on
    a mutable array.

    A QJniArray can also be constructed from an existing \c{jarray} or
    QJniObject. However, note that no type checking is performed to verify that
    the \c{jarray} or QJniObject indeed represents an array holding elements of
    the specified type, and accessing a mismatching QJniArray results in
    undefined behavior.

    The data in a QJniArray can either be accessed element by element using
    at() or \l{QJniArray::}{operator[]()}, or iterated over.

    \code
    for (const auto &value : array)
        process(value);
    \endcode

    To copy the entire array into a C++ side Qt container, use the toContainer()
    function.

    \code
    const auto bytes = object.callMethod<jbyte[]>("getBytes");
    QByteArray data = bytes.toContainer();
    \endcode

    which happens implicitly in

    \code
    const auto data = object.callMethod<QByteArray>("getBytes");
    \endcode

    The return type of toContainer() depends on the type that QJniArray has
    been instantiated with.
//! [type-mapping]
    For \c{QJniArray<T>} this will typically be \c{QList<T>}, with the
    following exceptions:

    \table
    \header
    \li Specialization
    \li C++ type
    \row
    \li QJniArray<jbyte>
    \li QByteArray
    \row
    \li QJniArray<char>
    \li QByteArray
    \row
    \li QJniArray<jstring>
    \li QStringList
    \row
    \li QJniArray<QString>
    \li QStringList
    \endtable
//! [type-mapping]

    An array of a fixed size can also be created without any data, and can then
    be populated element by element using
    \l{QJniArray::operator[]()}{operator[]}:

    \code
    QJniArray<jint> intArray(size);
    for (int i = 0; i < size; ++i)
        intArray[i] = i;
    \endcode

    or a mutable iterator:

    \code
    QJniArray<QString> strings(size);
    int i = 0;
    for (auto string : strings) // note: not 'auto &string'
        string = u"Row %1"_s.arg(i++);
    \endcode

    As in Java, the size of an array can not be changed, but the array variable
    can be assigned to a different array.

    \note Java arrays are limited to 32 bits, and the \c{size_type} member type of
          QJniArray is \c{jsize}, which is a 32bit integer type. Trying to construct
          a QJniArray from a C++ container that holds more than 2^32 elements will
          cause a runtime assertion.
