Class LRUMap

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, Map, BoundedMap, IterableMap, OrderedMap

@Deprecated(since="2021-04-30") public class LRUMap extends AbstractLinkedMap implements BoundedMap, 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 with a fixed maximum size which removes the least recently used entry if an entry is added when full.

The least recently used algorithm works on the get and put operations only. Iteration of any kind, including setting the value by iteration, does not change the order. Queries such as containsKey and containsValue or access via views also do not change the order.

The map implements OrderedMap and entries may be queried using the bidirectional OrderedMapIterator. The order returned is least recently used to most recently used. Iterators from map views can also be cast to OrderedIterator if required.

All the available iterators can be reset back to the start by casting to ResettableIterator and calling reset().

Note that LRUMap 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 NullPointerException's when accessed by concurrent threads.

Since:
Commons Collections 3.0 (previously in main package v1.0)

    • get

      public Object get(Object key)
      Deprecated.

      Specified by:
      get in interface Map
      Overrides:
      get in class AbstractHashedMap
      Parameters:
      key - the key
      Returns:
      the mapped value, null if no match
    • isFull

      public boolean isFull()
      Deprecated.
      Returns true if this map is full and no new mappings can be added.
      Specified by:
      isFull in interface BoundedMap
      Returns:
      true if the map is full
    • maxSize

      public int maxSize()
      Deprecated.
      Gets the maximum size of the map (the bound).
      Specified by:
      maxSize in interface BoundedMap
      Returns:
      the maximum number of elements the map can hold
    • isScanUntilRemovable
