jsr166x in Java 5
Update on 27Aug06: It turns out including ConcurrentLinkedDeque is not such a good idea, and therefore removed in Beanlib 3.2.5. As pointed out by Doug Lea, this class will be replaced with something much better in Java 7.
Ever thought of taking advantage of those concurrent classes such as ConcurrentSkipListMap in Java 6 beta, but still being trapped in a Java 5 environment ? Well the entire jsr166x package has now been ported to beanlib 3.2.4, with sources augmented with the latest from Java 6 beta 2. This included even the ConcurrentLinkedDeque which is currently missing in Java 6.
