Remarks

A Set that uses an internal CopyOnWriteArrayList for all of its operations. Thus, it shares the same basic properties: <ul> <li>It is best suited for applications in which set sizes generally stay small, read-only operations vastly outnumber mutative operations, and you need to prevent interference among threads during traversal. <li>It is thread-safe. <li>Mutative operations (add, set, remove, etc.) are expensive since they usually entail copying the entire underlying array. <li>Iterators do not support the mutative remove operation. <li>Traversal via iterators is fast and cannot encounter interference from other threads. Iterators rely on unchanging snapshots of the array at the time the iterators were constructed. </ul>

<b>Sample Usage.</b> The following code sketch uses a copy-on-write set to maintain a set of Handler objects that perform some action upon state updates.

{@code
            class Handler { void handle() { ... } }

            class X {
              private final CopyOnWriteArraySet<Handler> handlers
                = new CopyOnWriteArraySet<>();
              public void addHandler(Handler h) { handlers.add(h); }

              private long internalState;
              private synchronized void changeState() { internalState = ...; }

              public void update() {
                changeState();
                for (Handler handler : handlers)
                  handler.handle();
              }
            }}
