public class PredicatedSortedSet extends PredicatedSet implements java.util.SortedSet
Decorates anotherSortedSetto validate that all additions match a specified predicate.This set exists to provide validation for the decorated set. It is normally created to decorate an empty set. If an object cannot be added to the set, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
One usage would be to ensure that no null entries are added to the set.
SortedSet set = PredicatedSortedSet.decorate(new TreeSet(), NotNullPredicate.INSTANCE);
This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

decorate
public static java.util.SortedSet decorate(java.util.SortedSet set, Predicate predicate)Factory method to create a predicated (validating) sorted set.If there are any elements already in the set being decorated, they are validated.
- Parameters:
 set- the set to decorate, must not be nullpredicate- the predicate to use for validation, must not be null- Throws:
 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException- if set or predicate is nulljava.lang.IllegalArgumentException- if the set contains invalid elements
