Constructor Detail

SimpleElement.AttributeMap

public SimpleElement.AttributeMap()

Method Detail

size

public int size()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Returns the number of key-value mappings in this map. If the map contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements, returns Integer.MAX_VALUE.

This implementation returns entrySet().size().

Specified by:
size in interface Map
Overrides:
size in class AbstractMap
Returns:
the number of key-value mappings in this map.

containsKey

public boolean containsKey(Object key)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Returns true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key.

This implementation iterates over entrySet() searching for an entry with the specified key. If such an entry is found, true is returned. If the iteration terminates without finding such an entry, false is returned. Note that this implementation requires linear time in the size of the map; many implementations will override this method.

Specified by:
containsKey in interface Map
Overrides:
containsKey in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - key whose presence in this map is to be tested.
Returns:
true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key.

get

public Object get(Object key)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Returns the value to which this map maps the specified key. Returns null if the map contains no mapping for this key. A return value of null does not necessarily indicate that the map contains no mapping for the key; it's also possible that the map explicitly maps the key to null. The containsKey operation may be used to distinguish these two cases.

This implementation iterates over entrySet() searching for an entry with the specified key. If such an entry is found, the entry's value is returned. If the iteration terminates without finding such an entry, null is returned. Note that this implementation requires linear time in the size of the map; many implementations will override this method.

Specified by:
get in interface Map
Overrides:
get in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - key whose associated value is to be returned.
Returns:
the value to which this map maps the specified key.
See Also:
AbstractMap.containsKey(Object)

put

public Object put(Object key,
                  Object value)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Associates the specified value with the specified key in this map (optional operation). If the map previously contained a mapping for this key, the old value is replaced.

This implementation always throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Specified by:
put in interface Map
Overrides:
put in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - key with which the specified value is to be associated.
value - value to be associated with the specified key.
Returns:
previous value associated with specified key, or null if there was no mapping for key. (A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with the specified key, if the implementation supports null values.)

remove

public Object remove(Object key)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Removes the mapping for this key from this map if present (optional operation).

This implementation iterates over entrySet() searching for an entry with the specified key. If such an entry is found, its value is obtained with its getValue operation, the entry is removed from the Collection (and the backing map) with the iterator's remove operation, and the saved value is returned. If the iteration terminates without finding such an entry, null is returned. Note that this implementation requires linear time in the size of the map; many implementations will override this method.

Note that this implementation throws an UnsupportedOperationException if the entrySet iterator does not support the remove method and this map contains a mapping for the specified key.

Specified by:
remove in interface Map
Overrides:
remove in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
key - key whose mapping is to be removed from the map.
Returns:
previous value associated with specified key, or null if there was no entry for key. (A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with the specified key, if the implementation supports null values.)

clear

public void clear()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Removes all mappings from this map (optional operation).

This implementation calls entrySet().clear(). Note that this implementation throws an UnsupportedOperationException if the entrySet does not support the clear operation.

Specified by:
clear in interface Map
Overrides:
clear in class AbstractMap

entrySet

public Set entrySet()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Returns a set view of the mappings contained in this map. Each element in this set is a Map.Entry. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. (If the map is modified while an iteration over the set is in progress, the results of the iteration are undefined.) The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding entry from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.
Specified by:
entrySet in interface Map
Specified by:
entrySet in class AbstractMap
Returns:
a set view of the mappings contained in this map.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Compares the specified object with this map for equality. Returns true if the given object is also a map and the two maps represent the same mappings. More formally, two maps t1 and t2 represent the same mappings if t1.keySet().equals(t2.keySet()) and for every key k in t1.keySet(), (t1.get(k)==null ? t2.get(k)==null : t1.get(k).equals(t2.get(k))) . This ensures that the equals method works properly across different implementations of the map interface.

This implementation first checks if the specified object is this map; if so it returns true. Then, it checks if the specified object is a map whose size is identical to the size of this set; if not, it returns false. If so, it iterates over this map's entrySet collection, and checks that the specified map contains each mapping that this map contains. If the specified map fails to contain such a mapping, false is returned. If the iteration completes, true is returned.

Specified by:
equals in interface Map
Overrides:
equals in class AbstractMap
Parameters:
o - object to be compared for equality with this map.
Returns:
true if the specified object is equal to this map.

clone

public Object clone()
Description copied from class: java.util.AbstractMap
Returns a shallow copy of this AbstractMap instance: the keys and values themselves are not cloned.
Overrides:
clone in class AbstractMap
Returns:
a shallow copy of this map.

readExternal

public void readExternal(DataInput in)
                  throws IOException
Restore the contents of this object by loading the object's state from the passed DataInput object.
Specified by:
readExternal in interface ExternalizableLite
Parameters:
in - the DataInput stream to read data from in order to restore the state of this object
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O exception occurs
NotActiveException - if the object is not in its initial state, and therefore cannot be deserialized into

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(DataOutput out)
                   throws IOException
Save the contents of this object by storing the object's state into the passed DataOutput object.
Specified by:
writeExternal in interface ExternalizableLite
Parameters:
out - the DataOutput stream to write the state of this object to
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O exception occurs

instantiateEntry

protected SimpleElement.AttributeMap.Entry instantiateEntry(Object oKey,
                                                            Object oVal)
Instantiate an Entry instance. This method permits inheriting classes to easily override the implementation of Entity.

findEntry

protected SimpleElement.AttributeMap.Entry findEntry(Object oKey)
Find an entry with the specified key.
Parameters:
oKey - the key to search for
Returns:
the entry with the specified key or null if the key could not be found

getFirstEntry

protected SimpleElement.AttributeMap.Entry getFirstEntry()
Return the first entry in the list..
Returns:
the first entry in the list

instantiateEntrySet

protected Set instantiateEntrySet()
Instantiate an Entry Set. This method permits inheriting classes to easily override the implementation of the Entity Set.
