Hi all guys, good catch!!! even if could not be useful, I think I'll make Serializable the container; my intention was realizing a "map extension" without properly extend it, applying the object adapter pattern, to avoid someone can call native LinkedHashMap methods. Very appreciated, thanks a lot! Simo
