Is fastlist missing in javolution 6.0.0

Question

Possibly daft question but is FastList missing from javolution 6.0.0, or am I doing something dumb?

Example code

import javolution.util.*;

public class Test {

    FastList<String> test;
    FastMap<String, String> test2;
}

FastMap resolves and compiles, FastList is an unknown class according to Netbeans.

The docs seem to imply that all collections are in javolution.util.* as per standard java, but is there a different import for FastList?

Answer 1

Yes, it's gone, use FastTable. See javolution.org/apidocs/ for the newest javadocs.

I haven't seen any announcement of the removal, there only has been a minor mention in the dev-mailing list:

With the upcoming release 6.0 (snapshot available, official release very soon), FastList is superseded by FastTable. The new FastTable (fractal based implementation) has fast insertion/deletion speed at random location (like FastList) and a very small memory footprint (like the original FastTable). In other words, you should be able to replace FastList with FastTable anywhere in your code with similar or better performance!
