Class TypedSortedMap

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.collections.map.TypedSortedMap

@Deprecated(since="2021-04-30")
public class TypedSortedMap
extends Object

Deprecated.

Commons Collections 3 is in maintenance mode. Commons Collections 4 should be used instead.

Decorates another SortedMap to validate that elements added are of a specific type.

The validation of additions is performed via an instanceof test against a specified Class. If an object cannot be added to the collection, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

Note that TypedSortedMap is not synchronized and is not thread-safe. If you wish to use this map from multiple threads concurrently, you must use appropriate synchronization. The simplest approach is to wrap this map using Collections.synchronizedSortedMap(java.util.SortedMap<K, V>). This class may throw exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.

The returned implementation is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

Since:

Commons Collections 3.0

Factory method to create a typed sorted map.

If there are any elements already in the map being decorated, they are validated.

Parameters:

map - the map to decorate, must not be null

keyType - the type to allow as keys, must not be null

valueType - the type to allow as values, must not be null

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if list or type is null
