public class ConcurrentSkipListSet<E>
extends java.util.AbstractSet<E>
implements NavigableSet<E>, java.io.Serializable

A scalable concurrent NavigableSet implementation based on a ConcurrentSkipListMap. The elements of the set are kept sorted according to their natural ordering, or by a Comparator provided at set creation time, depending on which constructor is used.

This implementation provides expected average log(n) time cost for the contains, add, and remove operations and their variants. Insertion, removal, and access operations safely execute concurrently by multiple threads. Iterators are weakly consistent, returning elements reflecting the state of the set at some point at or since the creation of the iterator. They do not throw ConcurrentModificationException, and may proceed concurrently with other operations. Ascending ordered views and their iterators are faster than descending ones.

Beware that, unlike in most collections, the size method is not a constant-time operation. Because of the asynchronous nature of these sets, determining the current number of elements requires a traversal of the elements. Additionally, the bulk operations addAll, removeAll, retainAll, and containsAll are not guaranteed to be performed atomically. For example, an iterator operating concurrently with an addAll operation might view only some of the added elements.

This class and its iterators implement all of the optional methods of the Set and Iterator interfaces. Like most other concurrent collection implementations, this class does not permit the use of null elements, because null arguments and return values cannot be reliably distinguished from the absence of elements.

public ConcurrentSkipListSet()

Constructs a new, empty set that orders its elements according to their natural ordering.

ConcurrentSkipListSet

public ConcurrentSkipListSet(java.util.Comparator<? super E> comparator)

Constructs a new, empty set that orders its elements according to the specified comparator.

ConcurrentSkipListSet

public ConcurrentSkipListSet(java.util.Collection<? extends E> c)

Constructs a new set containing the elements in the specified collection, that orders its elements according to their natural ordering.

Parameters:

c - The elements that will comprise the new set

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - if the elements in c are not Comparable, or are not mutually comparable

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified collection or any of its elements are null

ConcurrentSkipListSet

public ConcurrentSkipListSet(java.util.SortedSet<E> s)

Constructs a new set containing the same elements and using the same ordering as the specified sorted set.

Parameters:

s - sorted set whose elements will comprise the new set

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified sorted set or any of its elements are null

Method Detail

size

public int size()

Returns the number of elements in this set. If this set contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements, it returns Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Beware that, unlike in most collections, this method is NOT a constant-time operation. Because of the asynchronous nature of these sets, determining the current number of elements requires traversing them all to count them. Additionally, it is possible for the size to change during execution of this method, in which case the returned result will be inaccurate. Thus, this method is typically not very useful in concurrent applications.

Specified by:

size in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

size in interface java.util.Set<E>

Specified by:

size in class java.util.AbstractCollection<E>

Returns:

the number of elements in this set

Specified by:

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface java.util.Set<E>

Overrides:

isEmpty in class java.util.AbstractCollection<E>

Returns:

true if this set contains no elements

contains

public boolean contains(java.lang.Object o)

Returns true if this set contains the specified element. More formally, returns true if and only if this set contains an element e such that o.equals(e).

Specified by:

contains in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

contains in interface java.util.Set<E>

Overrides:

contains in class java.util.AbstractCollection<E>

Parameters:

o - object to be checked for containment in this set

Returns:

true if this set contains the specified element

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified element cannot be compared with the elements currently in this set

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified element is null

add

public boolean add(E e)

Adds the specified element to this set if it is not already present. More formally, adds the specified element e to this set if the set contains no element e2 such that e.equals(e2). If this set already contains the element, the call leaves the set unchanged and returns false.

Specified by:

add in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

add in interface java.util.Set<E>

Overrides:

add in class java.util.AbstractCollection<E>

Parameters:

e - element to be added to this set

Returns:

true if this set did not already contain the specified element

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - if e cannot be compared with the elements currently in this set

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified element is null

remove

public boolean remove(java.lang.Object o)

Removes the specified element from this set if it is present. More formally, removes an element e such that o.equals(e), if this set contains such an element. Returns true if this set contained the element (or equivalently, if this set changed as a result of the call). (This set will not contain the element once the call returns.)

Specified by:

remove in interface java.util.Collection<E>

Specified by:

remove in interface java.util.Set<E>

Overrides:

remove in class java.util.AbstractCollection<E>

Parameters:

Compares the specified object with this set for equality. Returns true if the specified object is also a set, the two sets have the same size, and every member of the specified set is contained in this set (or equivalently, every member of this set is contained in the specified set). This definition ensures that the equals method works properly across different implementations of the set interface.

Returns:

true if the specified object is equal to this set

removeAll

public boolean removeAll(java.util.Collection<?> c)

Description copied from interface: NavigableSet

Returns a view of the portion of this set whose elements range from fromElement to toElement. If fromElement and toElement are equal, the returned set is empty unless fromExclusive and toExclusive are both true. The returned set is backed by this set, so changes in the returned set are reflected in this set, and vice-versa. The returned set supports all optional set operations that this set supports.

Specified by:

subSet in interface NavigableSet<E>

Parameters:

fromElement - low endpoint of the returned set

fromInclusive - true if the low endpoint is to be included in the returned view

toElement - high endpoint of the returned set

toInclusive - true if the high endpoint is to be included in the returned view

Returns:

a view of the portion of this set whose elements range from fromElement, inclusive, to toElement, exclusive

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - if fromElement and toElement cannot be compared to one another using this set's comparator (or, if the set has no comparator, using natural ordering). Implementations may, but are not required to, throw this exception if fromElement or toElement cannot be compared to elements currently in the set.

java.lang.NullPointerException - if fromElement or toElement is null

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if fromElement is greater than toElement; or if this set itself has a restricted range, and fromElement or toElement lies outside the bounds of the range.
