Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
static interface	ExtendedCollection.Creator<E,C extends ExtendedCollection<E>>

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	hasVolatileElements() Tells if this collection contains volatile elements. An element is volatile, if it can become no longer reachable by the collection without being removed from the collection.
boolean	nullAllowed() Defines if null-elements are allowed inside the collection or not.

Method Detail

nullAllowed

boolean nullAllowed()

Defines if null-elements are allowed inside the collection or not.

Returns:

true if null is allowed inside the collection; false if not

hasVolatileElements

boolean hasVolatileElements()

Tells if this collection contains volatile elements.
An element is volatile, if it can become no longer reachable by the collection without being removed from the collection. Examples are WeakReference of SoftReference or implementations of collection entries that remove the element contained in an entry by some means outside the collection.
Note that WeakReference instances that are added to a a simple (non-volatile) implementation of a collection do not make the collection volatile, as the elements themselves (the reference instances) are still strongly referenced.

Returns:

true if the collection contains volatile elements.
