Java Program to Implement CopyOnWriteArraySet API

Last Updated : 30 Sep, 2022

CopyOnWriteArraySet is a member of the Java Collections Framework. It is a Set that uses an internal CopyOnWriteArrayList for all of its operations. It was introduced in JDK 1.5, we can say that it is a thread-safe version of Set. To use this class, we need to import it from java.util.concurrent package.

Implementation:

        removedSet.add(13);
 
        // Display message only
        System.out.println("The elements after removing");
 
        // removeAll()  method wipes off all elements

        copyOnWriteArraySet.removeAll(removedSet);
 
        // Iterator to traverse the elements
        Iterator<Integer> riterator

    }
}

Output:

Element 12 added to Set
Element 13 added to Set
Element 14 added to Set
Element 15 added to Set
The size of copyOnWriteArraySet is 4
The copyOnWriteArraySet contains 14
Element 13 removed
The element of copyOnWriteArraySet are
12    14    15    
The elements after removing
12    
copyOnWriteArraySet Elements are completely removed
copyOnWriteArraySet is empty
