    public abstract class AbstractLinkedMap<K,​V>
    extends AbstractHashedMap<K,​V>
    implements OrderedMap<K,​V>
    An abstract implementation of a hash-based map that links entries to create an ordered map and which provides numerous points for subclasses to override.

    This class implements all the features necessary for a subclass linked hash-based map. Key-value entries are stored in instances of the LinkEntry class which can be overridden and replaced. The iterators can similarly be replaced, without the need to replace the KeySet, EntrySet and Values view classes.

    Overridable methods are provided to change the default hashing behaviour, and to change how entries are added to and removed from the map. Hopefully, all you need for unusual subclasses is here.

    This implementation maintains order by original insertion, but subclasses may work differently. The OrderedMap interface is implemented to provide access to bidirectional iteration and extra convenience methods.

    The orderedMapIterator() method provides direct access to a bidirectional iterator. The iterators from the other 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().

    The implementation is also designed to be subclassed, with lots of useful methods exposed.

        Description copied from class: AbstractHashedMap
        Gets the entry mapped to the key specified.

        This method exists for subclasses that may need to perform a multi-step process accessing the entry. The public methods in this class don't use this method to gain a small performance boost.

        Overrides:
        getEntry in class AbstractHashedMap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - the key

        Parameters:
        key - the key to get before
        Returns:
        the previous key

      • removeEntry

        protected void removeEntry​(AbstractHashedMap.HashEntry<K,​V> entry,
                                   int hashIndex,
                                   AbstractHashedMap.HashEntry<K,​V> previous)
        Removes an entry from the map and the linked list.

        This implementation removes the entry from the linked list chain, then calls the superclass implementation.

        Overrides:
        removeEntry in class AbstractHashedMap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        entry - the entry to remove

        previous - the previous entry in the chain
      • mapIterator

        public OrderedMapIterator<K,​V> mapIterator()
        Gets an iterator over the map. Changes made to the iterator affect this map.

        A MapIterator returns the keys in the map. It also provides convenient methods to get the key and value, and set the value. It avoids the need to create an entrySet/keySet/values object. It also avoids creating the Map.Entry object.

        Specified by:
        mapIterator in interface IterableGet<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        mapIterator in interface OrderedMap<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        mapIterator in class AbstractHashedMap<K,​V>
        Returns:
        the map iterator
      • createKeySetIterator

        protected Iterator<K> createKeySetIterator()
        Creates a key set iterator. Subclasses can override this to return iterators with different properties.
        Overrides:
        createKeySetIterator in class AbstractHashedMap<K,​V>
        Returns:
        the keySet iterator

        Returns:
        the values iterator
