/**
|
jaroslav@557
|
29 |
* An ordered collection (also known as a <i>sequence</i>). The user of this
|
jaroslav@557
|
30 |
* interface has precise control over where in the list each element is
|
jaroslav@557
|
31 |
* inserted. The user can access elements by their integer index (position in
|
jaroslav@557
|
32 |
* the list), and search for elements in the list.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
33 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
34 |
* Unlike sets, lists typically allow duplicate elements. More formally,
|
jaroslav@557
|
35 |
* lists typically allow pairs of elements <tt>e1</tt> and <tt>e2</tt>
|
jaroslav@557
|
36 |
* such that <tt>e1.equals(e2)</tt>, and they typically allow multiple
|
jaroslav@557
|
37 |
* null elements if they allow null elements at all. It is not inconceivable
|
jaroslav@557
|
38 |
* that someone might wish to implement a list that prohibits duplicates, by
|
jaroslav@557
|
39 |
* throwing runtime exceptions when the user attempts to insert them, but we
|
jaroslav@557
|
40 |
* expect this usage to be rare.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
41 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
42 |
* The <tt>List</tt> interface places additional stipulations, beyond those
|
jaroslav@557
|
43 |
* specified in the <tt>Collection</tt> interface, on the contracts of the
|
jaroslav@557
|
44 |
* <tt>iterator</tt>, <tt>add</tt>, <tt>remove</tt>, <tt>equals</tt>, and
|
jaroslav@557
|
45 |
* <tt>hashCode</tt> methods. Declarations for other inherited methods are
|
jaroslav@557
|
46 |
* also included here for convenience.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
47 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
48 |
* The <tt>List</tt> interface provides four methods for positional (indexed)
|
jaroslav@557
|
49 |
* access to list elements. Lists (like Java arrays) are zero based. Note
|
jaroslav@557
|
50 |
* that these operations may execute in time proportional to the index value
|
jaroslav@557
|
51 |
* for some implementations (the <tt>LinkedList</tt> class, for
|
jaroslav@557
|
52 |
* example). Thus, iterating over the elements in a list is typically
|
jaroslav@557
|
53 |
* preferable to indexing through it if the caller does not know the
|
jaroslav@557
|
54 |
* implementation.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
55 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
56 |
* The <tt>List</tt> interface provides a special iterator, called a
|
jaroslav@557
|
57 |
* <tt>ListIterator</tt>, that allows element insertion and replacement, and
|
jaroslav@557
|
58 |
* bidirectional access in addition to the normal operations that the
|
jaroslav@557
|
59 |
* <tt>Iterator</tt> interface provides. A method is provided to obtain a
|
jaroslav@557
|
60 |
* list iterator that starts at a specified position in the list.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
61 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
62 |
* The <tt>List</tt> interface provides two methods to search for a specified
|
jaroslav@557
|
63 |
* object. From a performance standpoint, these methods should be used with
|
jaroslav@557
|
64 |
* caution. In many implementations they will perform costly linear
|
jaroslav@557
|
65 |
* searches.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
66 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
67 |
* The <tt>List</tt> interface provides two methods to efficiently insert and
|
jaroslav@557
|
68 |
* remove multiple elements at an arbitrary point in the list.<p>
|
jaroslav@557
|
69 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
70 |
* Note: While it is permissible for lists to contain themselves as elements,
|
jaroslav@557
|
71 |
* extreme caution is advised: the <tt>equals</tt> and <tt>hashCode</tt>
|
jaroslav@557
|
72 |
* methods are no longer well defined on such a list.
|
jaroslav@557
|
73 |
*
|
jaroslav@557
|
74 |
* <p>Some list implementations have restrictions on the elements that
|
jaroslav@557
|
75 |
* they may contain. For example, some implementations prohibit null elements,
|
jaroslav@557
|
76 |
* and some have restrictions on the types of their elements. Attempting to
|
jaroslav@557
|
77 |
* add an ineligible element throws an unchecked exception, typically
|
jaroslav@557
|
78 |
* <tt>NullPointerException</tt> or <tt>ClassCastException</tt>. Attempting
|
jaroslav@557
|
79 |
* to query the presence of an ineligible element may throw an exception,
|
jaroslav@557
|
80 |
* or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit the former
|
jaroslav@557
|
81 |
* behavior and some will exhibit the latter. More generally, attempting an
|
jaroslav@557
|
82 |
* operation on an ineligible element whose completion would not result in
|
jaroslav@557
|
83 |
* the insertion of an ineligible element into the list may throw an
|
jaroslav@557
|
84 |
* exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation.
|
jaroslav@557
|
85 |
* Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this
|
jaroslav@557
|
86 |
* interface.
