Thomas Neidhart commented on COLLECTIONS-439:
---------------------------------------------
In fact, this bag would be very similar to a MultiValueMap which decorates a
TreeMap:
{noformat}
MultiValueMap<String, String> map =
MultiValueMap.<String, String>multiValueMap(new TreeMap<String,
Collection<String>>(comparator));
{noformat}
The Bag interface would be more convenient to use, e.g. instead of calling
put(obj, obj), you could do add(obj).
> TreeBag with comparator does not store non-key duplicates.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-439
> Project: Commons Collections
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Bag
> Affects Versions: 3.2.1
> Reporter: Claude Warren
> Fix For: 4.0

> When storing objects that are sorted by a Comparator, if the differences in
> the objects are not in the comparator the same version of the object is
> returned. I expected that the sorted bag would work like a DB table with a
> non-unique key -- ordered but duplicate only determined by Object.equals().
> I have implemented this type of bag using a TreeMap of List. My
> implementation uses the Jena ExtendedIterator to make building the iterator()
> and array() methods easier.
> Will attach the code.
