<h1>Outline of the Collections Framework</h1>
<!-- Body text begins here -->
The collections framework consists of:
<ul>
<li><strong>Collection interfaces</strong> - The primary means by
which collections are manipulated.
<ul>
<li><a href=
"../Collection.html"><strong>Collection</strong></a>
- A group of objects. No assumptions are made about the order of
the collection (if any) or whether it can contain duplicate
elements.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Set.html"><strong>Set</strong></a> - The
familiar set abstraction. No duplicate elements permitted. May or
may not be ordered. Extends the <code>Collection</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../List.html"><strong>List</strong></a> -
Ordered collection, also known as a <i>sequence</i>. Duplicates are
generally permitted. Allows positional access. Extends the
<code>Collection</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Queue.html"><strong>Queue</strong></a> - A
collection designed for holding elements before processing. Besides
basic <code>Collection</code> operations, queues provide additional
insertion, extraction, and inspection operations.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Deque.html"><strong>Deque</strong></a> - A
<em>double ended queue</em>, supporting element insertion and
removal at both ends. Extends the <code>Queue</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Map.html"><strong>Map</strong></a> - A
mapping from keys to values. Each key can map to one value.</li>
<li><a href=
"../SortedSet.html"><strong>SortedSet</strong></a>
- A set whose elements are automatically sorted, either in their
<i>natural ordering</i> (see the <a href=
"../../lang/Comparable.html"><code>Comparable</code></a>
interface) or by a <a href=
"../Comparator.html"><code>Comparator</code></a>
object provided when a <code>SortedSet</code> instance is created.
Extends the <code>Set</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../SortedMap.html"><strong>SortedMap</strong></a>
- A map whose mappings are automatically sorted by key, either
using the <i>natural ordering</i> of the keys or by a comparator
provided when a <code>SortedMap</code> instance is created. Extends the
<code>Map</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../NavigableSet.html"><strong>NavigableSet</strong></a>
- A <code>SortedSet</code> extended with navigation methods reporting
closest matches for given search targets. A <code>NavigableSet</code>
may be accessed and traversed in either ascending or descending
order.</li>
<li><a href=
"../NavigableMap.html"><strong>NavigableMap</strong></a>
- A <code>SortedMap</code> extended with navigation methods returning
the closest matches for given search targets. A
<code>NavigableMap</code> can be accessed and traversed in either
ascending or descending key order.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/BlockingQueue.html"><strong>BlockingQueue</strong></a>
- A <code>Queue</code> with operations that wait for the queue to
become nonempty when retrieving an element and that wait for space
to become available in the queue when storing an element. (This
interface is part of the <code><a href=
"../concurrent/package-summary.html">java.util.concurrent</a></code>
package.)</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/TransferQueue.html"><strong>TransferQueue</strong></a>
- A <code>BlockingQueue</code> in which producers can wait for
consumers to receive elements. (This interface is part of the
<code><a href=
"../concurrent/package-summary.html">java.util.concurrent</a></code>
package.)</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/BlockingDeque.html"><strong>BlockingDeque</strong></a>
- A <code>Deque</code> with operations that wait for the deque to
become nonempty when retrieving an element and wait for space to
become available in the deque when storing an element. Extends both
the <code>Deque</code> and <code>BlockingQueue</code> interfaces. (This
interface is part of the <code><a href=
"../concurrent/package-summary.html">java.util.concurrent</a></code>
package.)</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/ConcurrentMap.html"><strong>ConcurrentMap</strong></a>
- A <code>Map</code> with atomic <code>putIfAbsent</code>, <code>remove</code>,
and <code>replace</code> methods. (This interface is part of the
<code>java.util.concurrent</code> package.)</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/ConcurrentNavigableMap.html"><strong>
ConcurrentNavigableMap</strong></a> - A <code>ConcurrentMap</code> that
is also a <code>NavigableMap</code>.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>General-purpose implementations</strong> - The primary
implementations of the collection interfaces.
<ul>
<li><strong><a href=
"../HashSet.html">HashSet</a></strong> - Hash
table implementation of the <code>Set</code> interface. The best
all-around implementation of the <code>Set</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../TreeSet.html"><strong>TreeSet</strong></a>
- Red-black tree implementation of the <code>NavigableSet</code>
interface.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../LinkedHashSet.html">LinkedHashSet</a></strong>
- Hash table and linked list implementation of the <code>Set</code>
interface. An insertion-ordered <code>Set</code> implementation that
runs nearly as fast as <code>HashSet</code>.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../ArrayList.html">ArrayList</a></strong> -
Resizable array implementation of the <code>List</code> interface (an
unsynchronized <code>Vector</code>). The best all-around implementation
of the <code>List</code> interface.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../ArrayDeque.html">ArrayDeque</a></strong> -
Efficient, resizable array implementation of the <code>Deque</code>
interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../LinkedList.html"><strong>LinkedList</strong></a>
- Doubly-linked list implementation of the <code>List</code> interface.
Provides better performance than the <code>ArrayList</code>
implementation if elements are frequently inserted or deleted
within the list. Also implements the <code>Deque</code> interface. When
accessed through the <code>Queue</code> interface, <code>LinkedList</code>
acts as a FIFO queue.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../PriorityQueue.html">PriorityQueue</a></strong>
- Heap implementation of an unbounded priority queue.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../HashMap.html">HashMap</a></strong> - Hash
table implementation of the <code>Map</code> interface (an
unsynchronized <code>Hashtable</code> that supports <code>null</code> keys
and values). The best all-around implementation of the <code>Map</code>
interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../TreeMap.html"><strong>TreeMap</strong></a>
Red-black tree implementation of the <code>NavigableMap</code>
interface.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../LinkedHashMap.html">LinkedHashMap</a></strong>
- Hash table and linked list implementation of the <code>Map</code>
interface. An insertion-ordered <code>Map</code> implementation that
runs nearly as fast as <code>HashMap</code>. Also useful for building
caches (see <a href=
"../LinkedHashMap.html#removeEldestEntry(java.util.Map.Entry)">
removeEldestEntry(Map.Entry)</a> ).</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Wrapper implementations</strong> -
Functionality-enhancing implementations for use with other
implementations. Accessed solely through static factory methods.
<ul>
<li><a href=
"../Collections.html#unmodifiableCollection(java.util.Collection)">
<strong>Collections.unmodifiable<i>Interface</i></strong></a> -
Returns an unmodifiable view of a specified collection that throws
an <code>UnsupportedOperationException</code> if the user attempts to
modify it.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Collections.html#synchronizedCollection(java.util.Collection)"
id=
"synchWrappers"><strong>Collections.synchronized<i>Interface</i></strong></a>
- Returns a synchronized collection that is backed by the specified
(typically unsynchronized) collection. As long as all accesses to
the backing collection are through the returned collection, thread
safety is guaranteed.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Collections.html#checkedCollection(java.util.Collection,java.lang.Class)">
<strong>Collections.checked<i>Interface</i></strong></a> - Returns
a dynamically type-safe view of the specified collection, which
throws a <code>ClassCastException</code> if a client attempts to add an
element of the wrong type. The generics mechanism in the language
provides compile-time (static) type checking, but it is possible to
bypass this mechanism. Dynamically type-safe views eliminate this
possibility.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Adapter implementations</strong> - Implementations that
adapt one collections interface to another:
<ul>
<li><strong><a href=
"../Collections.html#newSetFromMap(java.util.Map)">
newSetFromMap(Map)</a></strong> - Creates a general-purpose
<code>Set</code> implementation from a general-purpose <code>Map</code>
implementation.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../Collections.html#asLifoQueue(java.util.Deque)">
asLifoQueue(Deque)</a></strong> - Returns a view of a
<code>Deque</code> as a Last In First Out (LIFO) <code>Queue</code>.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Convenience implementations</strong> - High-performance
"mini-implementations" of the collection interfaces.
<ul>
<li><a href=
"../Arrays.html#asList(T...)"><strong>Arrays.asList</strong></a>
- Enables an array to be viewed as a list.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../Collections.html#emptySet()">emptySet</a>,
<a href=
"../Collections.html#emptyList()">emptyList</a>
and <a href=
"../Collections.html#emptyMap()">emptyMap</a></strong>
- Return an immutable empty set, list, or map.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../Collections.html#singleton(java.lang.Object)">
singleton</a>, <a href=
"../Collections.html#singletonList(java.lang.Object)">
singletonList</a>, and <a href=
"../Collections.html#singletonMap(K,V)">singletonMap</a></strong>
- Return an immutable singleton set, list, or map, containing only
the specified object (or key-value mapping).</li>
<li><a href=
"../Collections.html#nCopies(int,T)"><strong>
nCopies</strong></a> - Returns an immutable list consisting of n
copies of a specified object.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Legacy implementations</strong> - Older collection
classes were retrofitted to implement the collection interfaces.
<ul>
<li><a href=
"../Vector.html"><strong>Vector</strong></a> -
Synchronized resizable array implementation of the <code>List</code>
interface with additional legacy methods.</li>
<li><a href=
"../Hashtable.html"><strong>Hashtable</strong></a>
- Synchronized hash table implementation of the <code>Map</code>
interface that does not allow <code>null</code> keys or values, plus
additional legacy methods.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Special-purpose implementations</strong>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href=
"../WeakHashMap.html">WeakHashMap</a></strong>
- An implementation of the <code>Map</code> interface that stores only
<a href="../../lang/ref/WeakReference.html"><i>weak
references</i></a> to its keys. Storing only weak references
enables key-value pairs to be garbage collected when the key is no
longer referenced outside of the <code>WeakHashMap</code>. This class
is the easiest way to use the power of weak references. It is
useful for implementing registry-like data structures, where the
utility of an entry vanishes when its key is no longer reachable by
any thread.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../IdentityHashMap.html">IdentityHashMap</a></strong>
- Identity-based <code>Map</code> implementation based on a hash table.
This class is useful for topology-preserving object graph
transformations (such as serialization or deep copying). To perform
these transformations, you must maintain an identity-based "node
table" that keeps track of which objects have already been seen.
Identity-based maps are also used to maintain
object-to-meta-information mappings in dynamic debuggers and
similar systems. Finally, identity-based maps are useful in
preventing "spoof attacks" resulting from intentionally perverse
equals methods. (<code>IdentityHashMap</code> never invokes the equals
method on its keys.) An added benefit of this implementation is
that it is fast.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../concurrent/CopyOnWriteArrayList.html">CopyOnWriteArrayList</a></strong>
- A <code>List</code> implementation backed by an copy-on-write array.
All mutative operations (such as <code>add</code>, <code>set</code>, and
<code>remove</code>) are implemented by making a new copy of the array.
No synchronization is necessary, even during iteration, and
iterators are guaranteed never to throw
<code>ConcurrentModificationException</code>. This implementation is
well-suited to maintaining event-handler lists (where change is
infrequent, and traversal is frequent and potentially
time-consuming).</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../concurrent/CopyOnWriteArraySet.html">CopyOnWriteArraySet</a></strong>
- A <code>Set</code> implementation backed by a copy-on-write array.
This implementation is similar to <code>CopyOnWriteArrayList</code>.
Unlike most <code>Set</code> implementations, the <code>add</code>,
<code>remove</code>, and <code>contains</code> methods require time
proportional to the size of the set. This implementation is well
suited to maintaining event-handler lists that must prevent
duplicates.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../EnumSet.html">EnumSet</a></strong> - A
high-performance <code>Set</code> implementation backed by a bit
vector. All elements of each <code>EnumSet</code> instance must be
elements of a single enum type.</li>
<li><strong><a href=
"../EnumMap.html">EnumMap</a></strong> - A
high-performance <code>Map</code> implementation backed by an array.
All keys in each <code>EnumMap</code> instance must be elements of a
single enum type.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Concurrent implementations</strong> - These
implementations are part of <code>java.util.concurrent</code>.
<ul>
<li><strong><a href=
"../concurrent/ConcurrentLinkedQueue.html">ConcurrentLinkedQueue</a></strong>
- An unbounded first in, first out (FIFO) queue based on linked
nodes.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/LinkedBlockingQueue.html"><strong>
LinkedBlockingQueue</strong></a> - An optionally bounded FIFO
blocking queue backed by linked nodes.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/ArrayBlockingQueue.html"><strong>
ArrayBlockingQueue</strong></a> - A bounded FIFO blocking queue
backed by an array.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/PriorityBlockingQueue.html"><strong>
PriorityBlockingQueue</strong></a> - An unbounded blocking priority
queue backed by a priority heap.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/DelayQueue.html"><strong>DelayQueue</strong></a>
- A time-based scheduling queue backed by a priority heap.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/SynchronousQueue.html"><strong>SynchronousQueue</strong></a>
- A simple rendezvous mechanism that uses the
<code>BlockingQueue</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/LinkedBlockingDeque.html"><strong>
LinkedBlockingDeque</strong></a> - An optionally bounded FIFO
blocking deque backed by linked nodes.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/LinkedTransferQueue.html"><strong>
LinkedTransferQueue</strong></a> - An unbounded
<code>TransferQueue</code> backed by linked nodes.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/ConcurrentHashMap.html"><strong>ConcurrentHashMap</strong></a>
- A highly concurrent, high-performance <code>ConcurrentMap</code>
implementation based on a hash table. This implementation never
blocks when performing retrievals and enables the client to select
the concurrency level for updates. It is intended as a drop-in
replacement for <code><a href=
"../Hashtable.html">Hashtable</a></code>. In
addition to implementing <code>ConcurrentMap</code>, it supports all of
the legacy methods of <code>Hashtable</code>.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/ConcurrentSkipListSet.html"><strong>
ConcurrentSkipListSet</strong></a> - Skips list implementation of
the <code>NavigableSet</code> interface.</li>
<li><a href=
"../concurrent/ConcurrentSkipListMap.html"><strong>
ConcurrentSkipListMap</strong></a> - Skips list implementation of
the <code>ConcurrentNavigableMap</code> interface.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Abstract implementations</strong> - Skeletal
implementations of the collection interfaces to facilitate custom
implementations.
<ul>
<li><a href=
"../AbstractCollection.html"><strong>AbstractCollection</strong></a>
- Skeletal <code>Collection</code> implementation that is neither a set
nor a list (such as a "bag" or multiset).</li>
<li><a href=

<li><a href=
"../AbstractList.html"><strong>AbstractList</strong></a>
- Skeletal <code>List</code> implementation backed by a random access
data store (such as an array).</li>
<li><a href=
"../AbstractSequentialList.html"><strong>AbstractSequentialList</strong></a>
- Skeletal <code>List</code> implementation backed by a sequential
access data store (such as a linked list).</li>
