Package com.filenet.api.collection Description

Provides type-safe interfaces related to collections of objects.

Collections with names ending in Set (such as DocumentSet) represent independent objects; names ending in List (such as PermissionList) represent dependent objects. List-type collections contain ordered elements and can be directly updated. The elements of a list-type collection need not be unique. With a few exceptions, set-type collections contain unordered elements and each element will be unique. For information about the exceptions to this general rule, refer to "Collection Concepts" in the IBM FileNet P8 Content Engine Java and .NET API Developer's Guide. Sets cannot be directly updated, but can be iterated. Sets are transparently paged from the server during iteration; lists are not. The EngineCollection interface defines functionality common to all collections; EngineSet defines functionality common only to sets.
