Class AbstractHashedMap<K,V>

java.lang.Object
java.util.AbstractMap<K,V>
org.apache.commons.collections4.map.AbstractHashedMap<K,V>
Type Parameters:
K - the type of the keys in this map
V - the type of the values in this map
All Implemented Interfaces:
Map<K,V>, Get<K,V>, IterableGet<K,V>, IterableMap<K,V>, Put<K,V>
Direct Known Subclasses:
AbstractLinkedMap, AbstractReferenceMap, CaseInsensitiveMap, HashedMap

public class AbstractHashedMap<K,V> extends AbstractMap<K,V> implements IterableMap<K,V>
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 behavior, 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 v5.0.

Since:
3.0

      Specified by:
      clear in interface Put<K,V>
      Overrides:

    • keySet

      public Set<K> keySet()
      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 interface Map<K,V>
      Overrides:

      See Also:
    • mapIterator

      public MapIterator<K,V> mapIterator()
      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

      put in interface Put<K,V>
      Overrides:
      put in class AbstractMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - the key to add
      value - the value to add

      See Also:
    • putAll

      public void putAll(Map<? extends K,? extends V> map)

      Specified by:
      putAll in interface Put<K,V>
      Overrides:
