    Apache Commons Collections version 3.x is being deprecated from AEMaaCS. The upgraded version 4.4 of Commons Collections is already included as replacement. Customers are advised to upgrade to this version of the library. Please note: the package name was changed to org.apache.commons.collections4. Further note that there are AEM APIs currently exposing the old collections classes; these will be updated in upcoming releases.
    Defines a collection that allows objects to be removed in some well-defined order.

    The removal order can be based on insertion order (eg, a FIFO queue or a LIFO stack), on access order (eg, an LRU cache), on some arbitrary comparator (eg, a priority queue) or on any other well-defined ordering.

    Note that the removal order is not necessarily the same as the iteration order. A Buffer implementation may have equivalent removal and iteration orders, but this is not required.

    This interface does not specify any behavior for Object.equals(Object) and Object.hashCode() methods. It is therefore possible for a Buffer implementation to also also implement List, Set or Bag.

    Since:
    Commons Collections 2.1
