Collections Library


Documentation and Implementation Status


Overview

The object types of the collections library establish a general-purpose foundation to maintain object references or other values as members of structured collections. Customization options consolidate a wide range of basic collection structures into a few core types (Array, List, Set, Map). These types are defined strictly by their interface, not their internal implementation. Specialized options, however, give control and flexibility for efficient, low-level use (such as implementing other libraries).


Documentation

The collections library is defined and documented according to the module definition conventions. The following standard sections of documentation are available:
