   1 Libgee is a collection library providing GObject-based interfaces and
   2 classes for commonly used data structures.
   3
   4 Libgee provides the following interfaces:
   5
   6      * Traversable
   7            o Iterable
   8                  + Collection
   9                        # List
  10                              * BidirList
  11                        # Set
  12                              * SortedSet
  13                                  o BidirSortedSet
  14                        # MultiSet
  15                        # Queue
  16                              * Deque
  17                  + Map
  18                        # SortedMap
  19                              * BidirSortedMap
  20            o Iterator
  21                  + BidirIterator
  22                        # BidirListIterator
  23                  + ListIterator
  24                        # BidirListIterator
  25      * MultiMap
  26
  27 The ArrayList, ArrauQueue, ConcurrentLinkedList HashSet, HashMap, HashMultiSet,
  28 HashMultiMap, LinkedList, PriorityQueue, TreeSet, TreeMap,
  29 TreeMultiSet, and TreeMultiMap classes provide a reasonable sample
  30 implementation of those interfaces. In addition, a set of abstract
  31 classes are provided to ease the implementation of new collections.
  32
  33 Around that, the API provide means to retrieve read-only views,
  34 efficient sort algorithms, simple, bi-directional or index-based mutable
  35 iterators depending on the collection type.
  36
  37 Libgee is written in Vala and can be used like any GObject-based C
  38 library. It's planned to provide bindings for further languages.
