org.apache.commons.collections.buffer (Commons Collections 3.2.2 API)

This package contains implementations of the Buffer interface.

The following implementations are provided in the package:

PriorityBuffer - provides for removal based on a comparator ordering
BoundedFifoBuffer - implements a buffer with a fixed size that throws exceptions when full
CircularFifoBuffer - implements a buffer with a fixed size that discards oldest when full
UnboundedFifoBuffer - implements a buffer that grows in size if necessary

The following decorators are provided in the package:

Synchronized - synchronizes method access for multi-threaded environments
Unmodifiable - ensures the collection cannot be altered
Predicated - ensures that only elements that are valid according to a predicate can be added
Typed - ensures that only elements that are of a specific type can be added
Transformed - transforms elements added to the buffer
Blocking - blocks on get and remove until an element is available

Class Summary
Class	Description
AbstractBufferDecorator	Decorates another `Buffer` to provide additional behaviour.
BlockingBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to make `BlockingBuffer.get()` and `BlockingBuffer.remove()` block when the `Buffer` is empty.
BoundedBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to ensure a fixed maximum size.
BoundedFifoBuffer	The BoundedFifoBuffer is a very efficient implementation of `Buffer` that is of a fixed size.
CircularFifoBuffer	CircularFifoBuffer is a first in first out buffer with a fixed size that replaces its oldest element if full.
PredicatedBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to validate that additions match a specified predicate.
PriorityBuffer	Binary heap implementation of `Buffer` that provides for removal based on `Comparator` ordering.
SynchronizedBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to synchronize its behaviour for a multi-threaded environment.
TransformedBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to transform objects that are added.
TypedBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to validate that elements added are of a specific type.
UnboundedFifoBuffer	UnboundedFifoBuffer is a very efficient implementation of `Buffer` that can grow to any size.
UnmodifiableBuffer	Decorates another `Buffer` to ensure it can't be altered.
