public class PredicatedSortedSet extends PredicatedSet implements SortedSet
SortedSet
to validate that all additions
match a specified predicate.
This set exists to provide validation for the decorated set. It is normally created to decorate an empty set. If an object cannot be added to the set, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
One usage would be to ensure that no null entries are added to the set.
SortedSet set = PredicatedSortedSet.decorate(new TreeSet(), NotNullPredicate.INSTANCE);
This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

Comparator | comparator() |
static SortedSet | decorate(SortedSet set, Predicate predicate)
Factory method to create a predicated (validating) sorted set.

Object | first() |
SortedSet | headSet(Object toElement) |
Object | last() |
SortedSet | subSet(Object fromElement, Object toElement) |
SortedSet | tailSet(Object fromElement) |
If there are any elements already in the set being decorated, they are validated.
Parameters: set the set to decorate, must not be null predicate the predicate to use for validation, must not be null
Throws: IllegalArgumentException if set or predicate is null IllegalArgumentException if the set contains invalid elements
