/**
* A {@link Collection} whose contents will never change, and which offers a few additional
* guarantees detailed below.
*
* Warning: avoid direct usage of {@link ImmutableCollection} as a type (just as
* with {@link Collection} itself). Prefer subtypes such as {@link ImmutableSet} or {@link
* ImmutableList}, which have well-defined {@link #equals} semantics, thus avoiding a common source
* of bugs and confusion.
*
*
About all {@code Immutable-} collections
*
* The remainder of this documentation applies to every public {@code Immutable-} type in this
* package, whether it is a subtype of {@code ImmutableCollection} or not.
*
*
Guarantees
*
* Each makes the following guarantees:
*
*
* - Shallow immutability. Elements can never be added, removed or replaced in this
* collection. This is a stronger guarantee than that of {@link
* Collections#unmodifiableCollection}, whose contents change whenever the wrapped collection
* is modified.
*
- Null-hostility. This collection will never contain a null element.
*
- Deterministic iteration. The iteration order is always well-defined, depending on
* how the collection was created. Typically this is insertion order unless an explicit
* ordering is otherwise specified (e.g. {@link ImmutableSortedSet#naturalOrder}). See the
* appropriate factory method for details. View collections such as {@link
* ImmutableMultiset#elementSet} iterate in the same order as the parent, except as noted.
*
- Thread safety. It is safe to access this collection concurrently from multiple
* threads.
*
- Integrity. This type cannot be subclassed outside this package (which would allow
* these guarantees to be violated).
*
*
* "Interfaces", not implementations
*
* These are classes instead of interfaces to prevent external subtyping, but should be thought
* of as interfaces in every important sense. Each public class such as {@link ImmutableSet} is a
* type offering meaningful behavioral guarantees. This is substantially different from the
* case of (say) {@link HashSet}, which is an implementation, with semantics that were
* largely defined by its supertype.
*
*
For field types and method return types, you should generally use the immutable type (such as
* {@link ImmutableList}) instead of the general collection interface type (such as {@link List}).
* This communicates to your callers all of the semantic guarantees listed above, which is almost
* always very useful information.
*
*
On the other hand, a parameter type of {@link ImmutableList} is generally a nuisance to
* callers. Instead, accept {@link Iterable} and have your method or constructor body pass it to the
* appropriate {@code copyOf} method itself.
*
*
Expressing the immutability guarantee directly in the type that user code references is a
* powerful advantage. Although Java 9 offers certain immutable collection factory methods, like {@code Set.of},
* we recommend continuing to use these immutable collection classes for this reason.
*
*
Creation
*
* Except for logically "abstract" types like {@code ImmutableCollection} itself, each {@code
* Immutable} type provides the static operations you need to obtain instances of that type. These
* usually include:
*
*
* - Static methods named {@code of}, accepting an explicit list of elements or entries.
*
- Static methods named {@code copyOf} (or {@code copyOfSorted}), accepting an existing
* collection whose contents should be copied.
*
- A static nested {@code Builder} class which can be used to populate a new immutable
* instance.
*
*
* Warnings
*
*
* - Warning: as with any collection, it is almost always a bad idea to modify an element
* (in a way that affects its {@link Object#equals} behavior) while it is contained in a
* collection. Undefined behavior and bugs will result. It's generally best to avoid using
* mutable objects as elements at all, as many users may expect your "immutable" object to be
* deeply immutable.
*
*
* Performance notes
*
*
* - Implementations can be generally assumed to prioritize memory efficiency, then speed of
* access, and lastly speed of creation.
*
- The {@code copyOf} methods will sometimes recognize that the actual copy operation is
* unnecessary; for example, {@code copyOf(copyOf(anArrayList))} should copy the data only
* once. This reduces the expense of habitually making defensive copies at API boundaries.
* However, the precise conditions for skipping the copy operation are undefined.
*
- Warning: a view collection such as {@link ImmutableMap#keySet} or {@link
* ImmutableList#subList} may retain a reference to the entire data set, preventing it from
* being garbage collected. If some of the data is no longer reachable through other means,
* this constitutes a memory leak. Pass the view collection to the appropriate {@code copyOf}
* method to obtain a correctly-sized copy.
*
- The performance of using the associated {@code Builder} class can be assumed to be no
* worse, and possibly better, than creating a mutable collection and copying it.
*
- Implementations generally do not cache hash codes. If your element or key type has a slow
* {@code hashCode} implementation, it should cache it itself.
*
*
* Example usage
*
* {@code
* class Foo {
* private static final ImmutableSet RESERVED_CODES =
* ImmutableSet.of("AZ", "CQ", "ZX");
*
* private final ImmutableSet codes;
*
* public Foo(Iterable codes) {
* this.codes = ImmutableSet.copyOf(codes);
* checkArgument(Collections.disjoint(this.codes, RESERVED_CODES));
* }
* }
* }
*
* See also
*
* See the Guava User Guide article on immutable collections.
