  primitive class
- getLength
  
  long getLength()
  
  Returns the length of the vector.
  
  Returns:
  
  vector length
- put
  
  void put(long index, Object array, int ioff, int count)
  
  Stores a vector of values in this object. array must be an array of values matching getType. Element ioff of array is stored at index index, elemnt ioff+1 at index+1, etc.
  
  Parameters:
  
  index - starting offset to write to
  
  array - array of values to store

  Retrieves a vector of values from this object. array must be an array of type matching getType. Every element of array will be filled with values; the first retrieved from offset index, the second from index+1, etc.
  
  Parameters:
  
  index - starting offset
  
  array - array to accept data
  
  ioff - offset into array to which the first value is copied
