Class UnmodifiableBoundedCollection<E>

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.commons.collections.collection.AbstractCollectionDecorator<E>
      extended by org.apache.commons.collections.collection.AbstractSerializableCollectionDecorator<E>
          extended by org.apache.commons.collections.collection.UnmodifiableBoundedCollection<E>
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Iterable<E>, Collection<E>, BoundedCollection<E>

public final class UnmodifiableBoundedCollection<E>
extends AbstractSerializableCollectionDecorator<E>
implements BoundedCollection<E>

UnmodifiableBoundedCollection decorates another BoundedCollection to ensure it can't be altered.

If a BoundedCollection is first wrapped in some other collection decorator, such as synchronized or predicated, the BoundedCollection methods are no longer accessible. The factory on this class will attempt to retrieve the bounded nature by examining the package scope variables.

This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

Since:
Commons Collections 3.0

Method Detail

decorate

public static <E> BoundedCollection<E> decorate(BoundedCollection<E> coll)
Factory method to create an unmodifiable bounded collection.

Parameters:
coll - the BoundedCollection to decorate, must not be null
Returns:
a new unmodifiable bounded collection
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if bag is null

decorateUsing

Factory method to create an unmodifiable bounded collection.

This method is capable of drilling down through up to 1000 other decorators to find a suitable BoundedCollection.

Parameters:
coll - the BoundedCollection to decorate, must not be null
Returns:
a new unmodifiable bounded collection
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if bag is null
