# Class ModifiableObservableListBase<E>

java.lang.Object
java.util.AbstractCollection<E>
java.util.AbstractList<E>
javafx.collections.ObservableListBase<E>
javafx.collections.ModifiableObservableListBase<E>

Type Parameters:
  `E` - the type of the elements contained in the List

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Iterable<E>`, `Collection<E>`, `List<E>`, `Observable`, `ObservableList<E>`

public abstract class ModifiableObservableListBase<E> extends ObservableListBase<E>
Abstract class that serves as a base class for `ObservableList` implementations that are modifiable. To implement a modifiable `ObservableList` class, you just need to implement the following set of methods:

- `get(int)`
- `size()`
- `doAdd(int, Object)`
- `doRemove(int)`
- `doSet(int, Object)`

and the notifications and built and fired automatically for you.

Example of a simple `ObservableList` delegating to another `List` would look like this:

       public class ArrayObservableList<E> extends ModifiableObservableList<E> {

       private final List<E> delegate = new ArrayList<>();

       public E get(int index) {
           return delegate.get(index);
       }

       public int size() {
           return delegate.size();
       }

       protected void doAdd(int index, E element) {
           delegate.add(index, element);
       }

       protected E doSet(int index, E element) {
           return delegate.set(index, element);
       }

       protected E doRemove(int index) {
           return delegate.remove(index);
       }
