lithium\data\Collection
Implements
Serializable
Extends
lithium\util\Collection
The Collection
class extends the generic lithium\util\Collection
class to provide
context-specific features for working with sets of data persisted by a backend data store. This
is a general abstraction that operates on arbitrary sets of data from either relational or
non-relational data stores.
Instances of lithium\data\Collection
or any subclass of it may be serialized. This
operation however isn't lossless. The documentation of the serialize()
method has
more information on the limitations.
