A Map implementation with a fixed maximum size which removes the least recently used entry if an entry is added when full.

The least recently used algorithm works on the get and put operations only. Iteration of any kind, including setting the value by iteration, does not change the order. Queries such as containsKey and containsValue or access via views also do not change the order.

The map implements OrderedMap and entries may be queried using the bidirectional OrderedMapIterator. The order returned is least recently used to most recently used. Iterators from map views can also be cast to OrderedIterator if required.

All the available iterators can be reset back to the start by casting to ResettableIterator and calling reset().

Note that LRUMap 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<Object,Object>). This class may throw NullPointerException's when accessed by concurrent threads.

Adds a new key-value mapping into this map.

This implementation checks the LRU size and determines whether to discard an entry or not using removeLRU(LinkEntry).

Reuses an entry by removing it and moving it to a new place in the map.

Subclass method to control removal of the least recently used entry from the map.

This method exists for subclasses to override. A subclass may wish to provide cleanup of resources when an entry is removed. For example:

protected boolean removeLRU(LinkEntry entry) {
  releaseResources(entry.getValue());  // release resources held by entry
  return true;  // actually delete entry
}

Alternatively, a subclass may choose to not remove the entry or selectively keep certain LRU entries. For example:

protected boolean removeLRU(LinkEntry entry) {
  if (entry.getKey().toString().startsWith("System.")) {
    return false;  // entry not removed from LRUMap
  } else {
    return true;  // actually delete entry
  }
}
The effect of returning false is dependent on the scanUntilRemovable flag. If the flag is true, the next LRU entry will be passed to this method and so on until one returns false and is removed, or every entry in the map has been passed. If the scanUntilRemovable flag is false, the map will exceed the maximum size.

NOTE: Commons Collections 3.0 passed the wrong entry to this method. This is fixed in version 3.1 onwards.

  • entry – the entry to be removed
