public CheckedCollection(Collection coll)

Create a new collection.

CheckedCollection

public CheckedCollection(Collection coll,
                 CheckedMap parent)

Create a new collection.

Method Detail

size

public int size()

Returns the number of elements in this collection. If this collection contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements, returns Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Specified by:

size in interface Collection

Specified by:

size in interface Set

Returns:

the number of elements in this collection

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

Returns true if this collection contains no elements.

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface Collection

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface Set

Returns:

true if this collection contains no elements

contains

public boolean contains(Object o)

Returns true if this collection contains the specified element. More formally, returns true if and only if this collection contains at least one element e such that (o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e)).

Specified by:

contains in interface Collection

Specified by:

contains in interface Set

Parameters:

o - element whose presence in this collection is to be tested

Returns:

true if this collection contains the specified element

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the type of the specified element is incompatible with this collection (optional)

NullPointerException - if the specified element is null and this collection does not permit null elements (optional)

iterator

public Iterator iterator()

Returns an iterator over the elements in this collection. There are no guarantees concerning the order in which the elements are returned (unless this collection is an instance of some class that provides a guarantee).

Specified by:

iterator in interface Iterable

Specified by:

iterator in interface Collection

Specified by:

iterator in interface Set

Returns:

an Iterator over the elements in this collection

toArray

public Object[] toArray()

Returns an array containing all of the elements in this collection. If this collection makes any guarantees as to what order its elements are returned by its iterator, this method must return the elements in the same order.

The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this collection. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array even if this collection is backed by an array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.

This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.

Specified by:

toArray in interface Collection

Specified by:

toArray in interface Set

Returns:

an array containing all of the elements in this collection

toArray

public Object[] toArray(Object[] a)

Returns an array containing all of the elements in this collection; the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array. If the collection fits in the specified array, it is returned therein. Otherwise, a new array is allocated with the runtime type of the specified array and the size of this collection.

If this collection fits in the specified array with room to spare (i.e., the array has more elements than this collection), the element in the array immediately following the end of the collection is set to null. (This is useful in determining the length of this collection only if the caller knows that this collection does not contain any null elements.)

If this collection makes any guarantees as to what order its elements are returned by its iterator, this method must return the elements in the same order.

Like the toArray() method, this method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs. Further, this method allows precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may, under certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs.

Suppose x is a collection known to contain only strings. The following code can be used to dump the collection into a newly allocated array of String:

     String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);

Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to toArray().

Specified by:

toArray in interface Collection

Specified by:

toArray in interface Set

Parameters:

a - the array into which the elements of this collection are to be stored, if it is big enough; otherwise, a new array of the same runtime type is allocated for this purpose.

Returns:

an array containing all of the elements in this collection

Throws:

ArrayStoreException - if the runtime type of the specified array is not a supertype of the runtime type of every element in this collection

NullPointerException - if the specified array is null

add

public boolean add(Object o)

Ensures that this collection contains the specified element (optional operation). Returns true if this collection changed as a result of the call. (Returns false if this collection does not permit duplicates and already contains the specified element.)

Collections that support this operation may place limitations on what elements may be added to this collection. In particular, some collections will refuse to add null elements, and others will impose restrictions on the type of elements that may be added. Collection classes should clearly specify in their documentation any restrictions on what elements may be added.

If a collection refuses to add a particular element for any reason other than that it already contains the element, it must throw an exception (rather than returning false). This preserves the invariant that a collection always contains the specified element after this call returns.

Specified by:

add in interface Collection

Specified by:

add in interface Set

Parameters:

e - element whose presence in this collection is to be ensured

Returns:

true if this collection changed as a result of the call

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the add operation is not supported by this collection

ClassCastException - if the class of the specified element prevents it from being added to this collection

NullPointerException - if the specified element is null and this collection does not permit null elements

IllegalArgumentException - if some property of the element prevents it from being added to this collection

IllegalStateException - if the element cannot be added at this time due to insertion restrictions

remove

public boolean remove(Object o)

Removes a single instance of the specified element from this collection, if it is present (optional operation). More formally, removes an element e such that (o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e)), if this collection contains one or more such elements. Returns true if this collection contained the specified element (or equivalently, if this collection changed as a result of the call).

Specified by:

remove in interface Collection

Specified by:

remove in interface Set

Parameters:

o - element to be removed from this collection, if present

Returns:

true if an element was removed as a result of this call

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the type of the specified element is incompatible with this collection (optional)

NullPointerException - if the specified element is null and this collection does not permit null elements (optional)

UnsupportedOperationException - if the remove operation is not supported by this collection

containsAll

public boolean containsAll(Collection c)

Returns true if this collection contains all of the elements in the specified collection.

Specified by:

containsAll in interface Collection

Specified by:

containsAll in interface Set

Parameters:

c - collection to be checked for containment in this collection

Returns:

true if this collection contains all of the elements in the specified collection

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the types of one or more elements in the specified collection are incompatible with this collection (optional)

NullPointerException - if the specified collection contains one or more null elements and this collection does not permit null elements (optional), or if the specified collection is null

contains(Object)

addAll

public boolean addAll(Collection c)

Adds all of the elements in the specified collection to this collection (optional operation). The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress. (This implies that the behavior of this call is undefined if the specified collection is this collection, and this collection is nonempty.)

Specified by:

addAll in interface Collection

Specified by:

addAll in interface Set

Parameters:

c - collection containing elements to be added to this collection

Returns:

true if this collection changed as a result of the call

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the addAll operation is not supported by this collection

ClassCastException - if the class of an element of the specified collection prevents it from being added to this collection

NullPointerException - if the specified collection contains a null element and this collection does not permit null elements, or if the specified collection is null

IllegalArgumentException - if some property of an element of the specified collection prevents it from being added to this collection

IllegalStateException - if not all the elements can be added at this time due to insertion restrictions

See Also:

add(Object)

removeAll

public boolean removeAll(Collection c)

Removes all of this collection's elements that are also contained in the specified collection (optional operation). After this call returns, this collection will contain no elements in common with the specified collection.

Specified by:

removeAll in interface Collection

Specified by:

removeAll in interface Set

Parameters:

c - collection containing elements to be removed from this collection

Returns:

true if this collection changed as a result of the call

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the removeAll method is not supported by this collection

ClassCastException - if the types of one or more elements in this collection are incompatible with the specified collection (optional)

NullPointerException - if this collection contains one or more null elements and the specified collection does not support null elements (optional), or if the specified collection is null

See Also:

remove(Object), contains(Object)

retainAll

public boolean retainAll(Collection c)

Retains only the elements in this collection that are contained in the specified collection (optional operation). In other words, removes from this collection all of its elements that are not contained in the specified collection.

Specified by:

retainAll in interface Collection

Specified by:

retainAll in interface Set

Parameters:

c - collection containing elements to be retained in this collection

Returns:

true if this collection changed as a result of the call

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the retainAll operation is not supported by this collection

ClassCastException - if the types of one or more elements in this collection are incompatible with the specified collection (optional)

NullPointerException - if this collection contains one or more null elements and the specified collection does not permit null elements (optional), or if the specified collection is null

See Also:

remove(Object), contains(Object)

clear

public void clear()

Removes all of the elements from this collection (optional operation). The collection will be empty after this method returns.

Specified by:

clear in interface Collection

Specified by:

clear in interface Set

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the clear operation is not supported by this collection

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Compares the specified object with this collection for equality.

While the Collection interface adds no stipulations to the general contract for the Object.equals, programmers who implement the Collection interface "directly" (in other words, create a class that is a Collection but is not a Set or a List) must exercise care if they choose to override the Object.equals. It is not necessary to do so, and the simplest course of action is to rely on Object's implementation, but the implementor may wish to implement a "value comparison" in place of the default "reference comparison." (The List and Set interfaces mandate such value comparisons.)

The general contract for the Object.equals method states that equals must be symmetric (in other words, a.equals(b) if and only if b.equals(a)). The contracts for List.equals and Set.equals state that lists are only equal to other lists, and sets to other sets. Thus, a custom equals method for a collection class that implements neither the List nor Set interface must return false when this collection is compared to any list or set. (By the same logic, it is not possible to write a class that correctly implements both the Set and List interfaces.)

Specified by:

equals in interface Collection

Specified by:

equals in interface Set

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

o - object to be compared for equality with this collection

Returns:

true if the specified object is equal to this collection

See Also:

Object.equals(Object), Set.equals(Object), List.equals(Object)

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hash code value for this collection. While the Collection interface adds no stipulations to the general contract for the Object.hashCode method, programmers should take note that any class that overrides the Object.equals method must also override the Object.hashCode method in order to satisfy the general contract for the Object.hashCodemethod. In particular, c1.equals(c2) implies that c1.hashCode()==c2.hashCode().

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Collection

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Set

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

the hash code value for this collection

Object.hashCode(), Object.equals(Object)
