Characteristics indicating properties of a 
Collector, which can
 be used to optimize reduction implementations.-

Enum Constant SummaryEnum Constants Enum Constant Description CONCURRENTIndicates that this collector is concurrent, meaning that the result container can support the accumulator function being called concurrently with the same result container from multiple threads.IDENTITY_FINISHIndicates that the finisher function is the identity function and can be elided.UNORDEREDIndicates that the collection operation does not commit to preserving the encounter order of input elements.
- 
Method SummaryModifier and Type Method Description static Collector.CharacteristicsvalueOf(String name)Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.static Collector.Characteristics[]values()Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Details- 
CONCURRENTIndicates that this collector is concurrent, meaning that the result container can support the accumulator function being called concurrently with the same result container from multiple threads.If a CONCURRENTcollector is not alsoUNORDERED, then it should only be evaluated concurrently if applied to an unordered data source.
- 
UNORDEREDIndicates that the collection operation does not commit to preserving the encounter order of input elements. (This might be true if the result container has no intrinsic order, such as aSet.)
- 
IDENTITY_FINISHIndicates that the finisher function is the identity function and can be elided. If set, it must be the case that an unchecked cast from A to R will succeed.

valuesReturns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.- Returns:
- an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
 
- 
valueOfReturns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)- Parameters:
- name- the name of the enum constant to be returned.
- Returns:
- the enum constant with the specified name
- Throws:
- IllegalArgumentException- if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
- NullPointerException- if the argument is null
