I'm stuck in the in-between here with the following thought: HashTable certainly feels like a collection of objects, but it clearly extends Dictionary and isn't in the collections family. But we are in java.util here and not in java.lang, so that feels more like it could be in collections. Plus properties are essentially a map, despite they're being implemented on top of hashtable. -Rob > > Cheers, > Jörg > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
