Class AbstractHashedMap

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Map, IterableMap
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    AbstractLinkedMap, AbstractReferenceMap, CaseInsensitiveMap, HashedMap, IdentityMap

    @Deprecated(since="2021-04-30")
    public class AbstractHashedMap
    extends AbstractMap
    implements IterableMap
    Deprecated.
    Commons Collections 3 is in maintenance mode. Commons Collections 4 should be used instead.
    An abstract implementation of a hash-based map which provides numerous points for subclasses to override.

    This class implements all the features necessary for a subclass hash-based map. Key-value entries are stored in instances of the HashEntry class, which can be overridden and replaced. The iterators can similarly be replaced, without the need to replace the KeySet, EntrySet and Values view classes.

    Overridable methods are provided to change the default hashing behaviour, and to change how entries are added to and removed from the map. Hopefully, all you need for unusual subclasses is here.

    NOTE: From Commons Collections 3.1 this class extends AbstractMap. This is to provide backwards compatibility for ReferenceMap between v3.0 and v3.1. This extends clause will be removed in v4.0.

    Since:
    Commons Collections 3.0

        public MapIterator mapIterator()
        Deprecated.
        Gets an iterator over the map. Changes made to the iterator affect this map.

        A MapIterator returns the keys in the map. It also provides convenient methods to get the key and value, and set the value. It avoids the need to create an entrySet/keySet/values object. It also avoids creating the Map.Entry object.

        the map iterator

      • keySet

        public Set keySet()
        Deprecated.
        Gets the keySet view of the map. Changes made to the view affect this map. To simply iterate through the keys, use mapIterator().

        keySet in class AbstractMap
        Returns:
        the keySet view
      • values

        public Collection values()
        Deprecated.

        values in interface Map
        Overrides:
        values in class AbstractMap
