Is there a method in JDK or apache commons to "pop" a list of elements from a java.util.List? I mean, remove the list of elements and return it, like this method:
public Collection pop(Collection elementsToPop, Collection elements) {
Collection popped = new ArrayList();
for (Object object : elementsToPop) {
if (elements.contains(object)) {
elements.remove(object);
popped.add(object);
}
}
return popped;
}
