orderedMapIterator
OrderedMapIterator orderedMapIterator()
Obtains anOrderedMapIterator
over the map.A ordered map iterator is an efficient way of iterating over maps in both directions.
BidiMap map = new TreeBidiMap(); MapIterator it = map.mapIterator(); while (it.hasNext()) { Object key = it.next(); Object value = it.getValue(); it.setValue("newValue"); Object previousKey = it.previous(); }
- Returns:
- a map iterator
-
firstKey
Object firstKey()
Gets the first key currently in this map.- Returns:
- the first key currently in this map
- Throws:
NoSuchElementException
- if this map is empty
-
lastKey
Object lastKey()
Gets the last key currently in this map.- Returns:
- the last key currently in this map
- Throws:
NoSuchElementException
- if this map is empty
-
nextKey
Object nextKey(Object key)
Gets the next key after the one specified.- Parameters:
key
- the key to search for next from- Returns:
- the next key, null if no match or at end
