# Class JPEGHuffmanTable

java.lang.Object
javax.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGHuffmanTable

public class JPEGHuffmanTable extends Object
A class encapsulating a single JPEG Huffman table. Fields are provided for the "standard" tables taken from Annex K of the JPEG specification. These are the tables used as defaults.

For more information about the operation of the standard JPEG plug-in, see the JPEG metadata format specification and usage notes

- ## Constructor Details

  - ### JPEGHuffmanTable

    public JPEGHuffmanTable(short[] lengths, short[] values)
    Creates a Huffman table and initializes it. The input arrays are copied. The arrays must describe a possible Huffman table. For example, 3 codes cannot be expressed with a single bit.
    Parameters:
      `lengths` - an array of `short`s where `lengths[k]` is equal to the number of values with corresponding codes of length `k + 1` bits.
      `values` - an array of shorts containing the values in order of increasing code length.
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if `lengths` or `values` are null, the length of `lengths` is greater than 16, the length of `values` is greater than 256, if any value in `lengths` or `values` is less than zero, or if the arrays do not describe a valid Huffman table.

- ## Method Details

  - ### getLengths

    public short[] getLengths()
    Returns an array of `short`s containing the number of values for each length in the Huffman table. The returned array is a copy.
    Returns:
      a `short` array where `array[k-1]` is equal to the number of values in the table of length `k`.
    See Also:
      - `getValues()`

  - ### getValues

    public short[] getValues()
    Returns an array of `short`s containing the values arranged by increasing length of their corresponding codes. The interpretation of the array is dependent on the values returned from `getLengths`. The returned array is a copy.
    Returns:
      a `short` array of values.
    See Also:
      - `getLengths()`

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    Returns a `String` representing this Huffman table.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      a `String` representing this Huffman table.
