Abstract Pair class to assist with creating correct Map.Entry implementations.
Type parameters:
  • <K> – the type of keys
  • <V> – the type of mapped values
Since:3.0
/** * Abstract Pair class to assist with creating correct * {@link java.util.Map.Entry Map.Entry} implementations. * * @param <K> the type of keys * @param <V> the type of mapped values * @since 3.0 */
public abstract class AbstractMapEntry<K, V> extends AbstractKeyValue<K, V> implements Map.Entry<K, V> {
Constructs a new entry with the given 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 entry with the given key and given value. * * @param key the key for the entry, may be null * @param value the value for the entry, may be null */

Sets the value stored in this Map.Entry.

This Map.Entry is not connected to a Map, so only the local data is changed.

Params:
  • value – the new value
Returns:the previous value
/** * Sets the value stored in this <code>Map.Entry</code>. * <p> * This <code>Map.Entry</code> is not connected to a Map, so only the * local data is changed. * * @param value the new value * @return the previous value */
@Override public V setValue(final V value) { // NOPMD return super.setValue(value); }
Compares this Map.Entry with another Map.Entry.

Implemented per API documentation of Entry.equals(Object)

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> * Implemented per API documentation of {@link java.util.Map.Entry#equals(Object)} * * @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()

Returns:a suitable hash code
/** * Gets a hashCode compatible with the equals method. * <p> * Implemented per API documentation of {@link java.util.Map.Entry#hashCode()} * * @return a suitable hash code */
@Override public int hashCode() { return (getKey() == null ? 0 : getKey().hashCode()) ^ (getValue() == null ? 0 : getValue().hashCode()); } }
