Doh, yes, i mis read the logic in the for statement in ArrayList/Vector.

You do? I don't think there is any conceptual difference between the following w.r.t. interference:

  ArrayList l = ...
  l.stream().filter(...).forEach(e -> l.add(e));
  l.spliterator().forEachRemaining(e -> l.add(e));

and:

  ArrayList l = ...
  l.forEach(e -> l.add(e));
  l.iterator().forEachRemaining(e -> l.add(e));

Of course we have (or will have) strong wording saying don't implement interfering lambdas, but we still have to check for co-modification in the traversal methods of ArrayList spliterator.

So we are still inconsistent between Spliterator.forEachRemaining and Iterator.forEachReamining/Collection.forEach.

Paul.
