Method Detail

create

<E> NavigableSet<E> create()

Description copied from interface: CollectionFactory

This method creates a new Collection instance.
It is explicitly typed and respects the generic element type of the collection. Therefore the type of the Collection can NOT be bound to the generic type <COLLECTION> because of limitations in Java's generic type system. You need to work on the actual sub-interface (e.g. ListFactory) to get the proper result type.

Specified by:

create in interface CollectionFactory<NavigableSet>

Type Parameters:

E - the type of elements contained in the collection.

Returns:

the new collection instance.
