import convert._

/** A variety of implicit conversions supporting interoperability between
 *  Scala and Java collections.
 *
 *  The following conversions are supported:
 *{{{
 *    scala.collection.Iterable       <=> java.lang.Iterable
 *    scala.collection.Iterable       <=> java.util.Collection
 *    scala.collection.Iterator       <=> java.util.{ Iterator, Enumeration }
 *    scala.collection.mutable.Buffer <=> java.util.List
 *    scala.collection.mutable.Set    <=> java.util.Set
 *    scala.collection.mutable.Map    <=> java.util.{ Map, Dictionary }
 *    scala.collection.concurrent.Map <=> java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap
 *}}}
 *  In all cases, converting from a source type to a target type and back
 *  again will return the original source object:
 *
 *{{{
 *    import scala.collection.JavaConversions._
 *
 *    val sl = new scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer[Int]
 *    val jl : java.util.List[Int] = sl
 *    val sl2 : scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[Int] = jl
 *    assert(sl eq sl2)
 *}}}
 *  In addition, the following one way conversions are provided:
 *
 *{{{
 *    scala.collection.Seq         => java.util.List
 *    scala.collection.mutable.Seq => java.util.List
 *    scala.collection.Set         => java.util.Set
 *    scala.collection.Map         => java.util.Map
 *    java.util.Properties         => scala.collection.mutable.Map[String, String]
 *}}}
 *
 *  The transparent conversions provided here are considered
 *  fragile because they can result in unexpected behavior and performance.
 *
 *  Therefore, this API has been deprecated and `JavaConverters` should be
 *  used instead. `JavaConverters` provides the same conversions, but through
 *  extension methods.
