Hi everybody,

Are all the methods in the Historical collection classes
like Vector, Hashtable, Properties synchronized?
Is Dictionary a Historical abstract collection class ? If so, are all its methods synchronized?

Vector is synchronized. Hashtable used to inherit from Dictionary but has been retrofitted to inherit from Map, but is still synchronized. Properites subclasses Hashtable so it also is syncronized.
Dictionary used to be the superclass of Hashtable, but it is not synchronized.
