Class TransformedMap<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:
    java.io.Serializable, java.util.Map<K,​V>, Get<K,​V>, IterableGet<K,​V>, IterableMap<K,​V>, Put<K,​V>
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    TransformedSortedMap

    public class TransformedMap<K,​V>
    extends AbstractMapDecorator<K,​V>
    implements java.io.Serializable
    Decorates another Map to transform objects that are added.

    The Map put methods and Map.Entry setValue method are affected by this class. Thus objects must be removed or searched for using their transformed form. For example, if the transformation converts Strings to Integers, you must use the Integer form to remove objects.

    Note that TransformedMap 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.

    This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

        public static <K,​V> TransformedMap<K,​V> transformingMap​(java.util.Map<K,​V> map,
                                                                            Transformer<? super K,​? extends K> keyTransformer,
                                                                            Transformer<? super V,​? extends V> valueTransformer)
        Factory method to create a transforming map.

        If there are any elements already in the map being decorated, they are NOT transformed. Contrast this with transformedMap(Map, Transformer, Transformer).

        Type Parameters:
        K - the key type
        V - the value type
        Parameters:
        map - the map to decorate, must not be null
        keyTransformer - the transformer to use for key conversion, null means no transformation
        valueTransformer - the transformer to use for value conversion, null means no transformation
        Returns:
        a new transformed map
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if map is null

                                                                           Transformer<? super K,​? extends K> keyTransformer,

        Factory method to create a transforming map that will transform existing contents of the specified map.

        If there are any elements already in the map being decorated, they will be transformed by this method. Contrast this with transformingMap(Map, Transformer, Transformer).

        Type Parameters:
        K - the key type
        V - the value type
        Parameters:
        map - the map to decorate, must not be null
        keyTransformer - the transformer to use for key conversion, null means no transformation
        valueTransformer - the transformer to use for value conversion, null means no transformation
        Returns:
        a new transformed map
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if map is null

      • put

        public V put​(K key,
                     V value)
        Description copied from interface: Put
        Note that the return type is Object, rather than V as in the Map interface. See the class Javadoc for further info.
        Specified by:
        put in interface java.util.Map<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        put in interface Put<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        put in class AbstractMapDecorator<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - key with which the specified value is to be associated
        value - value to be associated with the specified key
        Returns:
        the previous value associated with key, or null if there was no mapping for key. (A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with key, if the implementation supports null values.)
