Hello Gabor,

Look at JGL pure Java container library
(http://www.objectspace.com/jgl/) from Object Space. It is absolutely
free, is given in source code and much more powerful that 1.2.
collection stuff. I have read that Sun licenseed their library for 1.2.
but apparently they reduced it if used it at all. For other things of
this sort, look also at http://www.x3m.com/. Their library is even
smarter (unlike JGL, it does not simulate C++'s STL) but had no new
release for more than one year. Or you can try to compile Sun's source
code with 1.1. (but it is not possibly allowed by their license -- read
it carefully before doing this).

All the Best
Pavel
