java.lang.Object java.util.AbstractCollection<E> java.util.AbstractSet<E> java.util.EnumSet<E>
public abstract class EnumSet<E extends Enum<E>>
A specialized Set
implementation for use with enum types. All of
the elements in an enum set must come from a single enum type that is
specified, explicitly or implicitly, when the set is created. Enum sets
are represented internally as bit vectors. This representation is
extremely compact and efficient. The space and time performance of this
class should be good enough to allow its use as a high-quality, typesafe
alternative to traditional int-based "bit flags." Even bulk
operations (such as containsAll and retainAll) should
run very quickly if the specified collection is also an enum set.
The iterator returned by the iteratormethod traverses the
elements in their natural order (the order in which the enum
constants are declared). The returned iterator is weakly
consistent: it will never throw ConcurrentModificationException
and it may or may not show the effects of any modifications to the set that
occur while the iteration is in progress.
Null elements are not permitted. Attempts to insert a null element
will throw NullPointerException
. Attempts to test for the
presence of a null element or to remove one will, however, function
properly.
Like most collection implementations EnumSet is not
synchronized. If multiple threads access an enum set concurrently, and at
least one of the threads modifies the set, it should be synchronized
externally. This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on some
object that naturally encapsulates the enum set. If no such object exists,
the set should be "wrapped" using the Collections.synchronizedSet(java.util.Set
method. This is best done at creation time, to prevent accidental
unsynchronized access:
Set<MyEnum> s = Collections.synchronizedSet(EnumSet.noneOf(Foo.class));
Implementation note: All basic operations execute in constant time.
They are likely (though not guaranteed) to be much faster than their
HashSet
counterparts. Even bulk operations, such as addAll()
and AbstractSet.removeAll(java.util.Collection>)
execute in constant time if the
parameter is another EnumSet instance.
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.
