Class ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<E>

  • Enclosing class:
    ImmutableSortedSet<E>

    public static final class ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<E>
    extends ImmutableSet.Builder<E>
    A builder for creating immutable sorted set instances, especially public static final sets ("constant sets"), with a given comparator. Example:
       
    
       public static final ImmutableSortedSet<Number> LUCKY_NUMBERS =
           new ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<Number>(ODDS_FIRST_COMPARATOR)
               .addAll(SINGLE_DIGIT_PRIMES)
               .add(42)
               .build();

    Builder instances can be reused; it is safe to call build() multiple times to build multiple sets in series. Each set is a superset of the set created before it.

      • add

        public ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<E> add​(E element)
        Adds element to the ImmutableSortedSet. If the ImmutableSortedSet already contains element, then add has no effect. (only the previously added element is retained).
        Overrides:
        add in class ImmutableSet.Builder<E>
        Parameters:
        element - the element to add
        Returns:
        this Builder object
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if element is null
      • add

        public ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<E> add​(E... elements)
        Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableSortedSet, ignoring duplicate elements (only the first duplicate element is added).
        Overrides:
        add in class ImmutableSet.Builder<E>
        Parameters:
        elements - the elements to add
        Returns:
        this Builder object
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if elements contains a null element
      • addAll

        public ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<E> addAll​(java.lang.Iterable<? extends E> elements)
        Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableSortedSet, ignoring duplicate elements (only the first duplicate element is added).
        Overrides:
        addAll in class ImmutableSet.Builder<E>
        Parameters:
        elements - the elements to add to the ImmutableSortedSet
        Returns:
        this Builder object
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if elements contains a null element
      • addAll

        public ImmutableSortedSet.Builder<E> addAll​(java.util.Iterator<? extends E> elements)
        Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableSortedSet, ignoring duplicate elements (only the first duplicate element is added).
        Overrides:
        addAll in class ImmutableSet.Builder<E>
        Parameters:
        elements - the elements to add to the ImmutableSortedSet
        Returns:
        this Builder object
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if elements contains a null element
