Package com.cedarsoftware.util

Class CompactSet<E>

java.lang.Object
com.cedarsoftware.util.CompactSet<E>
Type Parameters:
E - the type of elements maintained by this set
All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterable<E>, Collection<E>, Set<E>
Direct Known Subclasses:
CompactCIHashSet, CompactCILinkedSet, CompactLinkedSet
public class CompactSet<E> extends Object implements Set<E>
A memory-efficient Set implementation that internally uses CompactMap.

This implementation provides the same memory benefits as CompactMap while maintaining proper Set semantics. It can be configured for:

  • Case sensitivity for String elements
  • Element ordering (sorted, reverse, insertion)
  • Custom compact size threshold

Creating a CompactSet


 // Create a case-insensitive, sorted CompactSet
 CompactSet<String> set = CompactSet.<String>builder()
     .caseSensitive(false)
     .sortedOrder()
     .compactSize(80)
     .build();

 // Create a CompactSet with insertion ordering
 CompactSet<String> ordered = CompactSet.<String>builder()
     .insertionOrder()
     .build();

  • Constructor Details

    • CompactSet

      public CompactSet()
      Constructs an empty CompactSet with the default configuration (i.e., default CompactMap).

      This uses the no-arg CompactMap constructor, which typically yields:

      • caseSensitive = true
      • compactSize = 50
      • unordered

      If you want custom config, use the CompactSet.Builder instead.

      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if compactSize() returns a value less than 2

    • CompactSet

      protected CompactSet(CompactMap<E,Object> map)
      Constructs a CompactSet with a pre-existing CompactMap (usually from a builder).
      Parameters:
      map - the underlying CompactMap to store elements

    • CompactSet

      public CompactSet(Collection<? extends E> c)
      Constructs a CompactSet containing the elements of the specified collection, using the default CompactMap configuration.
      Parameters:
      c - the collection whose elements are to be placed into this set
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if the specified collection is null
