Class CompositeSet<E>

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.collections4.set.CompositeSet<E>

Type Parameters:

E - the type of the elements in this set

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Iterable<E>, java.util.Collection<E>, java.util.Set<E>

public class CompositeSet<E>
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.util.Set<E>, java.io.Serializable

Decorates a set of other sets to provide a single unified view.

Changes made to this set will actually be made on the decorated set. Add operations require the use of a pluggable strategy. If no strategy is provided then add is unsupported.

From version 4.0, this class does not extend CompositeCollection anymore due to its input restrictions (only accepts Sets). See COLLECTIONS-424 for more details.

Since:

3.0

Constructor Detail

CompositeSet

public CompositeSet()

Create an empty CompositeSet.

CompositeSet

public CompositeSet(java.util.Set<E> set)

Create a CompositeSet with just set composited.

Parameters:

set - the initial set in the composite

CompositeSet

public CompositeSet(java.util.Set<E>... sets)

Create a composite set with sets as the initial set of composited Sets.

Parameters:

sets - the initial sets in the composite

Method Detail

size

public int size()

Gets the size of this composite set.

This implementation calls size() on each set.

Specified by:

size in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

size in interface java.util.Set<E>

Returns:

total number of elements in all contained containers

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

Checks whether this composite set is empty.

This implementation calls isEmpty() on each set.

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface java.util.Set<E>

Returns:

true if all of the contained sets are empty

contains

public boolean contains(java.lang.Object obj)

Checks whether this composite set contains the object.

This implementation calls contains() on each set.

Specified by:

contains in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

contains in interface java.util.Set<E>

Parameters:

obj - the object to search for

Returns:

true if obj is contained in any of the contained sets

iterator

public java.util.Iterator<E> iterator()

Gets an iterator over all the sets in this composite.

This implementation uses an IteratorChain.

Specified by:

iterator in interface java.lang.Iterable<E>

Specified by:

iterator in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

iterator in interface java.util.Set<E>

Returns:

an IteratorChain instance which supports remove(). Iteration occurs over contained collections in the order they were added, but this behavior should not be relied upon.

IteratorChain

toArray

public java.lang.Object[] toArray()

Returns an array containing all of the elements in this composite.

Specified by:

toArray in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

toArray in interface java.util.Set<E>

Returns:

an object array of all the elements in the collection

toArray

public <T> T[] toArray(T[] array)

Returns an object array, populating the supplied array if possible. See Collection interface for full details.

Specified by:

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the elements in the collection

Parameters:

array - the array to use, populating if possible

Returns:

an array of all the elements in the collection

add
