Class WebMap

java.lang.Object

java.util.AbstractMap<K,V>

java.util.HashMap

com.openmarket.directory.common.WebMap

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, java.util.Map

public class WebMap
extends java.util.HashMap
implements java.util.Map

Modeled on post strings and the Transact TWebData class, WebData is a hashtable of String Lists. Lists are required for the 'value' side of the 'name/value' set because a particular name may have more than one value (in concordance with the post string data format). Each of the name and values must be url-encoded prior to creating the WebMap object. Order of name/value pairs is not guarenteed.
