Constructs a new pair with a null key and null value.
/** * Constructs a new pair with a null key and null value. */
public DefaultKeyValue() { super(null, null); }
Constructs a new pair with the specified key and given value.
Params:
  • key – the key for the entry, may be null
  • value – the value for the entry, may be null
/** * Constructs a new pair with the specified key and given value. * * @param key the key for the entry, may be null * @param value the value for the entry, may be null */

Constructs a new pair from the specified KeyValue.
Params:
  • pair – the pair to copy, must not be null
Throws:
/** * Constructs a new pair from the specified <code>KeyValue</code>. * * @param pair the pair to copy, must not be null * @throws NullPointerException if the entry is null */

Constructs a new pair from the specified Map.Entry.
Params:

Sets the key.
Params:

Returns:the old key

Sets the value.
Params:
  • value – the new value
Throws:
Returns:the old value of the value
/** * Sets the value. * * @return the old value of the value * @param value the new value * @throws IllegalArgumentException if value is this object */

Compares this Map.Entry with another Map.Entry.

Returns true if the compared object is also a DefaultKeyValue, and its key and value are equal to this object's key and value.

Params:
  • obj – the object to compare to
Returns:true if equal key and value
/** * Compares this <code>Map.Entry</code> with another <code>Map.Entry</code>. * <p> * Returns true if the compared object is also a <code>DefaultKeyValue</code>, * and its key and value are equal to this object's key and value. * * @param obj the object to compare to * @return true if equal key and value */

Gets a hashCode compatible with the equals method.

Implemented per API documentation of Entry.hashCode(), however subclasses may override this.

Returns:a suitable hash code
