Class AbstractByte2CharFunction

  it.unimi.dsi.fastutil.bytes.AbstractByte2CharFunction

All Implemented Interfaces:

public abstract class AbstractByte2CharFunction
extends Object
implements Byte2CharFunction, Serializable

An abstract class providing basic methods for functions implementing a type-specific interface.

Optional operations just throw an UnsupportedOperationException. Generic versions of accessors delegate to the corresponding type-specific counterparts following the interface rules (they take care of returning null on a missing key).

This class handles directly a default return value (including methods to access it). Instances of classes inheriting from this class have just to return defRetValue to denote lack of a key in type-specific methods. The value is serialized.

Implementing subclasses have just to provide type-specific get(), type-specific containsKey(), and size() methods.

Method Detail

defaultReturnValue

public void defaultReturnValue(char rv)

Description copied from interface: Byte2CharFunction

Sets the default return value. This value must be returned by type-specific versions of get(), put() and remove() to denote that the map does not contain the specified key. It must be 0/false/null by default.

Specified by:

defaultReturnValue in interface Byte2CharFunction

Parameters:

rv - the new default return value.

See Also:

Byte2CharFunction.defaultReturnValue()

defaultReturnValue

public char defaultReturnValue()

Description copied from interface: Byte2CharFunction

Gets the default return value.

Specified by:

defaultReturnValue in interface Byte2CharFunction

Returns:

the current default return value.

put

public char put(byte key,
                char value)

Description copied from interface: Byte2CharFunction

Adds a pair to the map.

Specified by:

put in interface Byte2CharFunction

Parameters:

key - the key.

value - the value.

Returns:

the old value, or the default return value if no value was present for the given key.

See Also:

Function.put(Object,Object)

remove

public char remove(byte key)

Description copied from interface: Byte2CharFunction

Removes the mapping with the given key.

Specified by:

remove in interface Byte2CharFunction

Returns:

the old value, or the default return value if no value was present for the given key.

See Also:

Function.remove(Object)

clear

public void clear()

Description copied from interface: Function

Removes all associations from this function (optional operation).

Specified by:

clear in interface Function<Byte,Character>

See Also:

Map.clear()

containsKey

public boolean containsKey(Object ok)

Description copied from interface: Function

Returns true if this function contains a mapping for the specified key.

Note that for some kind of functions (e.g., hashes) this method will always return true.

Specified by:

containsKey in interface Function<Byte,Character>

Parameters:

ok - the key.

Returns:

true if this function associates a value to key.

See Also:

Map.containsKey(Object)

get

public Character get(Object ok)

Delegates to the corresponding type-specific method, taking care of returning null on a missing key.

This method must check whether the provided key is in the map using containsKey(). Thus, it probes the map twice. Implementors of subclasses should override it with a more efficient method.

Specified by:

get in interface Function<Byte,Character>

Parameters:

ok - the key.

Returns:

the corresponding value, or null if no value was present for the given key.

See Also:

Map.get(Object)

put

public Character put(Byte ok,
                     Character ov)

Delegates to the corresponding type-specific method, taking care of returning null on a missing key.

This method must check whether the provided key is in the map using containsKey(). Thus, it probes the map twice. Implementors of subclasses should override it with a more efficient method.

Specified by:

put in interface Function<Byte,Character>

Parameters:

ok - the key.

ov - the value.

Returns:

the old value, or null if no value was present for the given key.

See Also:

Map.put(Object,Object)

remove

public Character remove(Object ok)

Delegates to the corresponding type-specific method, taking care of returning null on a missing key.

This method must check whether the provided key is in the map using containsKey(). Thus, it probes the map twice. Implementors of subclasses should override it with a more efficient method.

Specified by:

remove in interface Function<Byte,Character>

Returns:

the old value, or null if no value was present for the given key.

Map.remove(Object)
