Dedicated check list and check table data structures for Java.
This is now part of com.selectivem.collections. Please see there.
Check lists and check tables take a set of items as input; initially, all items will be marked as unchecked. You can then use the various methods to mark individual items as checked. Further methods allow you to check whether your check list or check table is complete - and when not, what is missing.
A check list is a one-dimensional list, a check table is a two-dimensional matrix.
One typical use case for these data structures are complex access control rules. You can use
a check table to tick off what privileges are present and which are not present. The tabular
toString() representation helps quickly identifying what privileges are missing:
| indices:data/read/search |
index_a11| ok |
index_a12| MISSING |
index_a13| MISSING |
index_a14| MISSING |
