[jira] [Created] (PIVOT-1022) Add maximum limit to our stack implementations

Roger Whitcomb created PIVOT-1022:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Add maximum limit to our stack implementations
                 Key: PIVOT-1022
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1022
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core-collections
            Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
            Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.1


In an obvious use case for a stack:  namely the TextPane "undo" stack, the "Stack" class was not used because there is an enforced limit, which was not a feature of our stack class.  So, adding an optional limit would allow this use case without duplicating code.

The limit would check after a "push" operation to see if the total stack depth then exceeds the limit, which would then remove the oldest element in that case.  (This is the way the code in TextPane works.)
