libgee is a collection library providing GObject-based interfaces and
classes for commonly used data structures.

libgee provides the following interfaces:

• Traversable
  • Iterable
    • Collection
      • BidirList

        • BidirSortedSet
      • Deque
    • Map
      • BidirSortedMap
  • Iterator
    • BidirIterator
    • ListIterator
• MultiMap
• Future

The ArrayList, ArrauQueue, ConcurrentLinkedList, ConcurrentSet, HashSet,
HashMap, HashMultiSet, HashMultiMap, LinkedList, PriorityQueue, Promise,
TreeSet, TreeMap, TreeMultiSet, and TreeMultiMap classes provide a
reasonable sample implementation of those interfaces. In addition, a set of
abstract classes are provided to ease the implementation of new collections.

Around that, the API provides means to retrieve read-only views, efficient
sort algorithms, simple, bi-directional or index-based mutable iterators
depending on the collection type.

It’s planned to provide bindings for further languages.
