Guava is a set of core libraries that includes new collection types (such as multimap and multiset), immutable collections, a graph library, functional types, an in-memory cache, and APIs/utilities for concurrency, I/O, hashing, primitives, reflection, string processing, and much more!

Guava comes in two flavors.

• The JRE flavor requires JDK 1.8 or higher.
• If you need support for JDK 1.7 or Android, use the Android flavor. You can find the Android Guava source in the androiddirectory.

Adding Guava to your build

Guava's Maven group ID is com.google.guava and its artifact ID is guava. Guava provides two different "flavors": one for use on a (Java 8+) JRE and one for use on Android or Java 7 or by any library that wants to be compatible with either of those. These flavors are specified in the Maven version field as either 27.0.1-jre or 27.0.1-android. For more about depending on Guava, see using Guava in your build.

To add a dependency on Guava using Maven, use the following:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
  <artifactId>guava</artifactId>
  <version>27.0.1-jre</version>
  <!-- or, for Android: -->
  <version>27.0.1-android</version>
</dependency>

To add a dependency using Gradle:

dependencies {
  compile 'com.google.guava:guava:27.0.1-jre'
  // or, for Android:
  api 'com.google.guava:guava:27.0.1-android'
}

Immutable Collections

Example

public static final ImmutableSet<String> COLOR_NAMES = ImmutableSet.of(
  "red",
  "orange",
  "yellow",
  "green",
  "blue",
  "purple");

class Foo {
  final ImmutableSet<Bar> bars;
  Foo(Set<Bar> bars) {
    this.bars = ImmutableSet.copyOf(bars); // defensive copy!
  }
}

Why?

Immutable objects have many advantages, including:

• Safe for use by untrusted libraries.
• Thread-safe: can be used by many threads with no risk of race conditions.
• Doesn't need to support mutation, and can make time and space savings with that assumption. All immutable collection implementations are more memory-efficient than their mutable siblings. (analysis)
• Can be used as a constant, with the expectation that it will remain fixed.

Making immutable copies of objects is a good defensive programming technique. Guava provides simple, easy-to-use immutable versions of each standard Collection type, including Guava's own Collection variations.

The JDK provides Collections.unmodifiableXXX methods, but in our opinion, these can be

• unwieldy and verbose; unpleasant to use everywhere you want to make defensive copies
• unsafe: the returned collections are only truly immutable if nobody holds a reference to the original collection
• inefficient: the data structures still have all the overhead of mutable collections, including concurrent modification checks, extra space in hash tables, etc.

When you don't expect to modify a collection, or expect a collection to remain constant, it's a good practice to defensively copy it into an immutable collection.

Important: Each of the Guava immutable collection implementations rejects null values. We did an exhaustive study on Google's internal code base that indicated that null elements were allowed in collections about 5% of the time, and the other 95% of cases were best served by failing fast on nulls. If you need to use null values, consider using Collections.unmodifiableList and its friends on a collection implementation that permits null. More detailed suggestions can be found here.

How?

An ImmutableXXX collection can be created in several ways:

• using the copyOf method, for example, ImmutableSet.copyOf(set)
• using the of method, for example, ImmutableSet.of("a", "b", "c") or ImmutableMap.of("a", 1, "b", 2)
• using a Builder, for example,

public static final ImmutableSet<Color> GOOGLE_COLORS =
   ImmutableSet.<Color>builder()
       .addAll(WEBSAFE_COLORS)
       .add(new Color(0, 191, 255))
       .build();

Except for sorted collections, order is preserved from construction time. For example,

ImmutableSet.of("a", "b", "c", "a", "d", "b")

will iterate over its elements in the order "a", "b", "c", "d".

copyOf is smarter than you think

It is useful to remember that ImmutableXXX.copyOf attempts to avoid copying the data when it is safe to do so -- the exact details are unspecified, but the implementation is typically "smart". For example,

ImmutableSet<String> foobar = ImmutableSet.of("foo", "bar", "baz");
thingamajig(foobar);

void thingamajig(Collection<String> collection) {
   ImmutableList<String> defensiveCopy = ImmutableList.copyOf(collection);
   ...
}

In this code, ImmutableList.copyOf(foobar) will be smart enough to just return foobar.asList(), which is a constant-time view of the ImmutableSet.

As a general heuristic, ImmutableXXX.copyOf(ImmutableCollection) tries to avoid a linear-time copy if

• it's possible using the underlying data structures in constant time. For example, ImmutableSet.copyOf(ImmutableList) can't be done in constant time.
• it wouldn't cause memory leaks -- for example, if you have ImmutableList<String> hugeList, and you do ImmutableList.copyOf(hugeList.subList(0, 10)), an explicit copy is performed, so as to avoid accidentally holding on to references in hugeList that aren't needed.
• it won't change semantics -- so ImmutableSet.copyOf(myImmutableSortedSet) will perform an explicit copy, because the hashCode() and equals used by ImmutableSet have different semantics from the comparator-based behavior of ImmutableSortedSet.

This helps minimize the performance overhead of good defensive programming style.

asList

All immutable collections provide an ImmutableList view via asList(), so -- for example -- even if you have data stored as an ImmutableSortedSet, you can get the kth smallest element with sortedSet.asList().get(k).

The returned ImmutableList is frequently -- not always, but frequently -- a constant-overhead view, rather than an explicit copy. That said, it's often smarter than your average List -- for example, it'll use the efficient contains methods of the backing collection.
