* Package name : libgoogle-collections-java Version : 0~20080808 Upstream Author : Kevin Bourrillion, Jared Levy, Mike Bostock, Jesse Wilson * URL : http://code.google.com/p/google-collections/ * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Java Description : suite of collections and related goodies for Java 5.0 This library is a natural extension of the Java Collections Framework. The major new types are: * BiMap. A Map that guarantees unique values, and supports an inverse view. * Multiset. A Collection that may contain duplicate values like a List, yet has order-independent equality like a Set. Often used to represent a histogram. * Multimap. Similar to Map, but may contain duplicate keys. Has subtypes SetMultimap and ListMultimap providing more specific behavior. . There are also more than a dozen collection implementations, mostly of the interfaces above, but not all. ReferenceMap, for example, is a ConcurrentMap implementation which easily handles any combination of strong, soft or weak keys with strong, soft or weak values. Static utility classes include: * Comparators. Natural order, compound, null-friendly, ad-hoc, ... * Iterators and Iterables. Element-based equality, cycle, concat, partition, filter with predicate, transform with function ... * Lists, Sets and Maps. A plethora of convenient factory methods and much more. * PrimitiveArrays: "boxing"/"unboxing" of primitive arrays . And there's more: * Immutable collections * Forwarding collections * Constrained collections * Implementation helpers like AbstractIterator -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
