AbstractSet

An AbstractSet is an abstract implementation of the Set interface. This implementation does not support adding. A subclass must implement the abstract methods iterator() and size().

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this `Object`.
boolean	equals(Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.

From interface java.lang.Iterable

Public Methods

public boolean equals (Object object)

Added in API level 1

Compares the specified object to this Set and returns true if they are equal. The object must be an instance of Set and contain the same objects.

Parameters

object	the object to compare with this set.

Returns

true if the specified object is equal to this set, false otherwise

public int hashCode ()

Added in API level 1

Returns the hash code for this set. Two set which are equal must return the same value. This implementation calculates the hash code by adding each element's hash code.

Returns

the hash code of this set.

public boolean removeAll (Collection<?> collection)

Added in API level 1

Removes all occurrences in this collection which are contained in the specified collection.

Parameters

collection	the collection of objects to remove.

Returns

true if this collection was modified, false otherwise.

Throws

UnsupportedOperationException	if removing from this collection is not supported.
