Methods Detail

• public Set asImmutable()

  A convenience method for creating an immutable list.

  Returns:

  an immutable Set

  Since:

  1.0

  See:

  Collections#unmodifiableSet.

• public Set asSynchronized()

  A convenience method for creating a synchronized Set.

  Returns:

  a synchronized Set

  Since:

  1.0

  See:

  Collections#synchronizedSet.

• public boolean equals(Set other)

  Compare the contents of two Sets for equality using Groovy's coercion rules.

  Returns true if the two sets have the same size, and every member of the specified set is contained in this set (or equivalently, every member of this set is contained in the specified set). If numbers exist in the sets, then they are compared as numbers, for example 2 == 2L. If both sets are null, the result is true; otherwise if either set is null, the result is false. Example usage:

  Set s1 = ["a", 2]
  def s2 = [2, 'a'] as Set
  Set s3 = [3, 'a']
  def s4 = [2.0, 'a'] as Set
  def s5 = [2L, 'a'] as Set
  assert s1.equals(s2)
  assert !s1.equals(s3)
  assert s1.equals(s4)
  assert s1.equals(s5)

  Parameters:

  other - the Set being compared to.

  Returns:

  true if the contents of both sets are identical
