public interface EntryVersion
A version is used to compare entries against one another. Versions do not guarantee contiguity, but do guarantee to be comparable. However this comparability is not the same as the JDK's Comparable interface. It is richer in that Comparable doesn't differentiate between instances that are the same versus instances that are equal-but-different.
