Constructor Detail

HashMap

public HashMap(int initialCapacity,
               float loadFactor)
Enabled: Constructs an empty HashMap with the specified initial capacity and load factor.

Parameters:
initialCapacity - The initial capacity.
loadFactor - The load factor.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the initial capacity is negative or the load factor is nonpositive.

HashMap

public HashMap(int initialCapacity)
Enabled: Constructs an empty HashMap with the specified initial capacity and the default load factor (0.75).

Parameters:
initialCapacity - the initial capacity.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the initial capacity is negative.

HashMap

public HashMap()
Enabled: Constructs an empty HashMap with the default initial capacity (16) and the default load factor (0.75).


HashMap

public HashMap(Map m)
Enabled: Constructs a new HashMap with the same mappings as the specified Map. The HashMap is created with default load factor (0.75) and an initial capacity sufficient to hold the mappings in the specified Map.

Parameters:
m - the map whose mappings are to be placed in this map.
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the specified map is null.
Method Detail

init

void init()
Initialization hook for subclasses. This method is called in all constructors and pseudo-constructors (clone, readObject) after HashMap has been initialized but before any entries have been inserted. (In the absence of this method, readObject would require explicit knowledge of subclasses.)


maskNull

static Object maskNull(Object key)
Returns internal representation for key. Use NULL_KEY if key is null.


unmaskNull

static Object unmaskNull(Object key)
Returns key represented by specified internal representation.


hash

static int hash(Object x)
Returns a hash value for the specified object. In addition to the object's own hashCode, this method applies a "supplemental hash function," which defends against poor quality hash functions. This is critical because HashMap uses power-of two length hash tables.

The shift distances in this function were chosen as the result of an automated search over the entire four-dimensional search space.


eq

static boolean eq(Object x,
                  Object y)
Check for equality of non-null reference x and possibly-null y.


indexFor

static int indexFor(int h,
                    int length)
Returns index for hash code h.


size

public int size()
Enabled: Returns the number of key-value mappings in this map.

Specified by:
size in interface Map
Overrides:
size in class AbstractMap
Returns:
the number of key-value mappings in this map.

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Enabled: Returns true if this map contains no key-value mappings.

Specified by:
isEmpty in interface Map
Overrides:
isEmpty in class AbstractMap
Returns:
true if this map contains no key-value mappings.

get

public Object get(Object key)
Enabled: Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped in this identity hash map, or null if the map contains no mapping for this key. A return value of null does not necessarily indicate that the map contains no mapping for the key; it is also possible that the map explicitly maps the key to null. The containsKey method may be used to distinguish these two cases.

Specified by:
get in interface Map
Overrides:
get in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - the key whose associated value is to be returned.
Returns:
the value to which this map maps the specified key, or null if the map contains no mapping for this key.
See Also:
put(Object, Object)

containsKey

public boolean containsKey(Object key)
Enabled: Returns true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key.

Specified by:
containsKey in interface Map
Overrides:
containsKey in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - The key whose presence in this map is to be tested
Returns:
true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key.

getEntry

java.util.HashMap.Entry getEntry(Object key)
Returns the entry associated with the specified key in the HashMap. Returns null if the HashMap contains no mapping for this key.


put

public Object put(Object key,
                  Object value)
Enabled: Associates the specified value with the specified key in this map. If the map previously contained a mapping for this key, the old value is replaced.

Specified by:
put in interface Map
Overrides:
put in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - key with which the specified value is to be associated.
value - value to be associated with the specified key.
Returns:
previous value associated with specified key, or null if there was no mapping for key. A null return can also indicate that the HashMap previously associated null with the specified key.

putForCreate

private void putForCreate(Object key,
                          Object value)
This method is used instead of put by constructors and pseudoconstructors (clone, readObject). It does not resize the table, check for comodification, etc. It calls createEntry rather than addEntry.


putAllForCreate

void putAllForCreate(Map m)

resize

void resize(int newCapacity)
Rehashes the contents of this map into a new HashMap instance with a larger capacity. This method is called automatically when the number of keys in this map exceeds its capacity and load factor.

Parameters:
newCapacity - the new capacity, MUST be a power of two.

transfer

void transfer(java.util.HashMap.Entry[] newTable)
Transfer all entries from current table to newTable.


putAll

public void putAll(Map t)
Enabled: Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to this map These mappings will replace any mappings that this map had for any of the keys currently in the specified map.

Specified by:
putAll in interface Map
Overrides:
putAll in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
t - mappings to be stored in this map.
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the specified map is null.

remove

public Object remove(Object key)
Enabled: Removes the mapping for this key from this map if present.

Specified by:
remove in interface Map
Overrides:
remove in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - key whose mapping is to be removed from the map.
Returns:
previous value associated with specified key, or null if there was no mapping for key. A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with the specified key.

removeEntryForKey

java.util.HashMap.Entry removeEntryForKey(Object key)
Removes and returns the entry associated with the specified key in the HashMap. Returns null if the HashMap contains no mapping for this key.


removeMapping

java.util.HashMap.Entry removeMapping(Object o)
Special version of remove for EntrySet.


clear

public void clear()
Enabled: Removes all mappings from this map.

Specified by:
clear in interface Map
Overrides:
clear in class AbstractMap

Enabled: Returns true if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value.

Specified by:
containsValue in interface Map
Overrides:
containsValue in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
value - value whose presence in this map is to be tested.
Returns:
true if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value.

containsNullValue

private boolean containsNullValue()
Special-case code for containsValue with null argument


clone

public Object clone()
Suppressed: Returns a shallow copy of this HashMap instance: the keys and values themselves are not cloned.

Overrides:
clone in class AbstractMap
Returns:
a shallow copy of this map.

addEntry

void addEntry(int hash,
              Object key,
              Object value,
              int bucketIndex)
Add a new entry with the specified key, value and hash code to the specified bucket. It is the responsibility of this method to resize the table if appropriate. Subclass overrides this to alter the behavior of put method.


createEntry

void createEntry(int hash,
                 Object key,
                 Object value,
                 int bucketIndex)
Like addEntry except that this version is used when creating entries as part of Map construction or "pseudo-construction" (cloning, deserialization). This version needn't worry about resizing the table. Subclass overrides this to alter the behavior of HashMap(Map), clone, and readObject.


newKeyIterator

Iterator newKeyIterator()

newValueIterator

Iterator newValueIterator()

newEntryIterator

Iterator newEntryIterator()

keySet

public Set keySet()
Enabled: Returns a set view of the keys contained in this map. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

Specified by:
keySet in interface Map
Overrides:
keySet in class AbstractMap
Returns:
a set view of the keys contained in this map.

values

public Collection values()
Enabled: Returns a collection view of the values contained in this map. The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the Iterator.remove, Collection.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

Specified by:
values in interface Map
Overrides:
values in class AbstractMap
Returns:
a collection view of the values contained in this map.

entrySet

public Set entrySet()
Enabled: Returns a collection view of the mappings contained in this map. Each element in the returned collection is a Map.Entry. The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Collection.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

Specified by:
entrySet in interface Map
Specified by:
entrySet in class AbstractMap
Returns:
a collection view of the mappings contained in this map.
