This Map wraps another Map implementation, using the wrapped instance for its default implementation. This class is used as a framework on which to build to extensions for its wrapped Map object which would be unavailable or inconvenient via sub-classing (but usable via composition).

This implementation does not perform any special processing with entrySet(), keySet() or values(). Instead it simply returns the set/collection from the wrapped map. This may be undesirable, for example if you are trying to write a validating implementation it would provide a loophole around the validation. But, you might want that loophole, so this class is kept simple.

Deprecated:Moved to map subpackage as AbstractMapDecorator. It will be removed in v4.0.
Since:Commons Collections 2.0
