static member SynchronizedList : System.Collections.IList -> System.Collections.IList

Parameters

list: IList

the list to be "wrapped" in a synchronized list.

Returns

IList

a synchronized view of the specified list.

Attributes: RegisterAttribute JavaTypeParametersAttribute

Remarks

Returns a synchronized (thread-safe) list backed by the specified list. In order to guarantee serial access, it is critical that <strong>all</strong> access to the backing list is accomplished through the returned list.

It is imperative that the user manually synchronize on the returned list when traversing it via Iterator, Spliterator or Stream:

List list = Collections.synchronizedList(new ArrayList());
                 ...
             synchronized (list) {
                 Iterator i = list.iterator(); // Must be in synchronized block
                 while (i.hasNext())
                     foo(i.next());
             }

Failure to follow this advice may result in non-deterministic behavior.

The returned list will be serializable if the specified list is serializable.
