Class IdentityMap

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, Map, IterableMap

@Deprecated(since="2021-04-30") public class IdentityMap extends AbstractHashedMap implements Serializable, Cloneable
Deprecated.
Apache Commons Collections version 3.x is being deprecated from AEMaaCS. The upgraded version 4.4 of Commons Collections is already included as replacement. Customers are advised to upgrade to this version of the library. Please note: the package name was changed to org.apache.commons.collections4. Further note that there are AEM APIs currently exposing the old collections classes; these will be updated in upcoming releases.
A Map implementation that matches keys and values based on == not equals().

This map will violate the detail of various Map and map view contracts. As a general rule, don't compare this map to other maps.

Note that IdentityMap 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.synchronizedMap(Map). This class may throw exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.

Since:
Commons Collections 3.0
