- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Iterable<E>, Collection<E>, Set<E>

      public class ListOrderedSet<E>
      extends AbstractSerializableSetDecorator<E>

  Decorates another `Set` to ensure that the order of addition is retained and used by the iterator.

  If an object is added to the set for a second time, it will remain in the original position in the iteration. The order can be observed from the set via the iterator or toArray methods.

  The ListOrderedSet also has various useful direct methods. These include many from `List`, such as `get(int)`, `remove(int)` and `indexOf(int)`. An unmodifiable `List` view of the set can be obtained via `asList()`.

  This class cannot implement the `List` interface directly as various interface methods (notably equals/hashCode) are incompatible with a set.

  This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

    - #### remove

          public boolean remove(Object object)

      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `Collection<E>`
      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `Set<E>`
      Overrides:

    - #### removeAll

          public boolean removeAll(Collection<?> coll)

      Specified by:
        `removeAll` in interface `Collection<E>`
      Specified by:
        `removeAll` in interface `Set<E>`
      Overrides:

    - #### retainAll

          public boolean retainAll(Collection<?> coll)

      This implementation iterates over the elements of this set, checking each element in turn to see if it's contained in `coll`. If it's not contained, it's removed from this set. As a consequence, it is advised to use a collection type for `coll` that provides a fast (e.g. O(1)) implementation of `Collection.contains(Object)`.

      Parameters:
        `object` - the element to search for

      Parameters:
        `index` - the index at which the element is to be inserted

    - #### addAll

          public boolean addAll(int index,
                       Collection<? extends E> coll)

      Inserts all elements in the specified collection not yet contained in the ordered set at the specified position (optional operation). Shifts the element currently at the position and all subsequent elements to the right.
      Parameters:
        `index` - the position to insert the elements
        `coll` - the collection containing the elements to be inserted
      Returns:
        `true` if this ordered set changed as a result of the call

        `toString` in class `AbstractCollectionDecorator<E>`
      Returns:
        a string representation of the ordered set
