Decorates another Collection to synchronize its behaviour for a multi-threaded environment.

Iterators must be manually synchronized:

synchronized (coll) {
  Iterator it = coll.iterator();
  // do stuff with iterator
}

This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

Type parameters:
  • <E> – the type of the elements in the collection
Since:3.0
