Class NamedSet<T>

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.tapestry5.ioc.internal.util.LockSupport
      org.apache.tapestry5.internal.util.NamedSet<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of value stored

public class NamedSet<T>
extends LockSupport

Simple, thread-safe associative array that relates a name to a value. Names are case-insensitive. This is optimized to use less memory (than a CaseInsensitiveMap (it uses a singly-liked list), though the cost of a lookup is more expensive. However, this is a good match against many of the structures inside a page instance, where most lookups occur only during page constructions, and the number of values is often small.

Each NameSet has its own ReadWriteLock.
