[collections] LinkedMap and ListOrderedMap

These classes resemble each other, don't they?
Are there any explanation/condition for choosing one of them
whan I use ordered map in my application?

regards,

Koji

Re: [collections] LinkedMap and ListOrderedMap

Both are provided to give you a choice of implementation.

IIRC, ListOrderedMap allows you to get a List object of keys, and also
allows you to choose your Map implementation (if you want something
unusual)..

To choose, the best answer is to performance test both in your application.
Bear in mind, the JDK implementation is like LinkedMap, so that might
suggest that is the better choice.
