Interface ProtoCollection

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultProtoCollection

public interface ProtoCollection

Represents an undifferentiated ActiveCollection instance, with the same configuration (role). This is another workaround for applications that use plexus-container-default versions less than 1.0-alpha-22, since this proto-collection can be injected without causing conflict with the existing collection-detection code in the container. Dependent components can then call getActiveMap|List|Set and retrieve the instance, which has been preconfigured.
