Class InflatableCollection

java.lang.Object
java.util.AbstractCollection
com.tangosol.util.InflatableCollection

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Iterable, java.util.Collection

Direct Known Subclasses:

InflatableList, InflatableSet

public abstract class InflatableCollection

extends java.util.AbstractCollection

A Collection implementation which optimizes memory consumption for collections that often contain just a single value. This implementation also reduces contention for read operations (e.g. contains, iterator, etc.)

Since:

Coherence 3.6
