Gosh! My intent was to carry over AbstractSet::equals verbatim, so I have no idea how the size check got lost in translation and passed through testing! Appears to be another hole in the test
coverage, or I didn't run the right ones.

As to calculating o.size() as we go then I'm not sure: most Set::size() impls in the JDK are O(1) (including the ones here), and you lose a very fast fast path in common cases for a hypothetical improvement on some collection types whose size() isn't. Leaving it as is is also sticking with
the status quo, which seems favorable for the scope of this RFE.

CCE is specified to be thrown by Set::contains/containsAll, so I think we should play it safe and
leave it unchanged.

It's probably specified so to accommodate for SortedSet(s) which don't use equals but compareTo / Comparator. But here you are calling containsAll on an abstract Set with known implementation(s) which are hash-based and CCE will never be thrown. If CCE is thrown from element's equals() then it should probably propagate out of AbstractImmutableSet.equals() and not silently translate to non-equality of sets.

What do you think?

I just noticed that AbstractSet does the same (catches CCE). That's probably because of SortedSet subclasses too. So if you think AbstractImmutableSet might be used for some immutable SortedSet implementations in the future, you should probably leave it unchanged. If elemen't equals() throws CCE it is violating the spec so it does not matter what the outcome is (although probably propagating CCE might help catching the bug). If you envision other AbstractImmutableSet subclasses in the future, then perhaps it would be good to declare an abstract hashCode() method in it. So implementations can't forget to define it. When one sees that equals() is already defined, he might falsely assume that hashCode() is defined too.

Also, I don't think that ClassCastException should be caught here. It should never be thrown by containsAll(c) anyway.

Hi Claes,

Are you sure that AbstractImmutableSet.equals(Object) is correct?

        @Override
        public boolean equals(Object o) {
            if (o == this)
                return true;

            if (!(o instanceof Set))
                return false;
            Collection<?> c = (Collection<?>) o;
            try {
                return containsAll(c);
            } catch (ClassCastException | NullPointerException unused) {
                return false;
            }
        }


It seems to me that this implementation returns true when passing in a sub-set of this. Should the method also check that the size(s) of both sets are the same?
