Summary     : Jakarta Commons Collections Package
Description :
The introduction of the Collections API by Sun in JDK 1.2 has been a
   boon to quick and effective Java programming. Ready access to
   powerful data structures has accelerated development by reducing
   the need for custom container classes around each core object.
   Most Java2 APIs are significantly easier to use because of the
   Collections API. However, there are certain holes left unfilled
   by Sun's implementations, and the Jakarta-Commons Collections
   Component strives to fulfill them. Among the features of this
   package are: - special-purpose implementations of Lists and Maps
   for fast access

- adapter classes from Java1-style containers (arrays, enumerations)
   to Java2-style collections.

- methods to test or create typical set-theory properties of
collections such as union, intersection, and closure.
