Actually, I'm only concerned about keySet().iterator() and values().iterator(). Not about keySet() and values() :) Perhaps something that can be worked in as we move forward? I think this (the "ill-formedness" of the iterators) could be something captured in docs today and implemented explicitly moving forward. Perhaps I'll take a shot once we've got it checked in....
Now if only I can find my password for CVS :) I should be able to check it in.... -AMT -----Original Message----- From: James Carman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 12:42 PM To: 'Jakarta Commons Developers List' Subject: RE: TimerMap Maybe you could just go ahead and throw UnsupportedOperationException on keySet(), but implement a generic debugCachingIssues() method! ;-) -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Rosenblum [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 3:40 PM To: Jakarta Commons Developers List Subject: Re: TimerMap Hey there, Thanks for all the feedback! Ideally, I think this makes the most sense as a Map --since it's most common use cases are as a Map-- and the javadoc would spell out usage scenarios and challenges (something I will work on). I've changed two points: TimedMapKey is now private and the backing store is no longer synchronized (as per Arun's suggestions). Synchronization can be left to the client developer. Even though I wouldn't want to have client code accessing entries via iterator in normal usage, I don't think calling keySet() should throw an UnsupportedOperationException since examining the keySet of such a map could be very useful in debugging caching issues.
