  • Type Parameters:
    E - the type of elements in this bag
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Iterable<E>, java.util.Collection<E>, Bag<E>
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    SynchronizedSortedBag

    public class SynchronizedBag<E>
    extends SynchronizedCollection<E>
    implements Bag<E>
    Decorates another Bag to synchronize its behaviour for a multi-threaded environment.

    Methods are synchronized, then forwarded to the decorated bag. Iterators must be separately synchronized around the loop.

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(java.lang.Object object)
        Specified by:
        equals in interface java.util.Collection<E>
        Overrides:
        equals in class SynchronizedCollection<E>
      • add

        public boolean add​(E object,
                           int count)
        Description copied from interface: Bag
        Adds nCopies copies of the specified object to the Bag.

        If the object is already in the Bag.uniqueSet() then increment its count as reported by Bag.getCount(Object). Otherwise add it to the Bag.uniqueSet() and report its count as nCopies.

        Specified by:
        add in interface Bag<E>
        Parameters:
        object - the object to add
        count - the number of copies to add
        Returns:
        true if the object was not already in the uniqueSet
      • remove

        public boolean remove​(java.lang.Object object,
                              int count)
        Description copied from interface: Bag
        Removes nCopies copies of the specified object from the Bag.

        If the number of copies to remove is greater than the actual number of copies in the Bag, no error is thrown.

        Specified by:
        remove in interface Bag<E>
        Parameters:
        object - the object to remove
        count - the number of copies to remove
        Returns:
        true if this call changed the collection

        Description copied from interface: Bag
        Returns a Set of unique elements in the Bag.

        Uniqueness constraints are the same as those in Set.

        Specified by:
        uniqueSet in interface Bag<E>
        Returns:
        the Set of unique Bag elements
      • getCount

        public int getCount​(java.lang.Object object)
        Description copied from interface: Bag
        Returns the number of occurrences (cardinality) of the given object currently in the bag. If the object does not exist in the bag, return 0.
        Specified by:
        getCount in interface Bag<E>
        Parameters:
        object - the object to search for
        Returns:
        the number of occurrences of the object, zero if not found
