Class FixedSizeMap<K,V>

Type Parameters:
K - the type of the keys in this map
V - the type of the values in this map
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Map<K,V>, BoundedMap<K,V>, Get<K,V>, IterableGet<K,V>, IterableMap<K,V>, Put<K,V>

public class FixedSizeMap<K,V> extends AbstractMapDecorator<K,V> implements BoundedMap<K,V>, Serializable
Decorates another Map to fix the size, preventing add/remove.

Any action that would change the size of the map is disallowed. The put method is allowed to change the value associated with an existing key however.

If trying to remove or clear the map, an UnsupportedOperationException is thrown. If trying to put a new mapping into the map, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown. This is because the put method can succeed if the mapping's key already exists in the map, so the put method is not always unsupported.

Note that FixedSizeMap is not synchronized and is not thread-safe. If you wish to use this map from multiple threads concurrently, you must use appropriate synchronization. The simplest approach is to wrap this map using Collections.synchronizedMap(Map). This class may throw exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.

This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

    • put

      public V put(K key, V value)
      Description copied from interface: Put
      Note that the return type is Object, rather than V as in the Map interface. See the class Javadoc for further info.
      Specified by:
      put in interface Map<K,V>
      Specified by:
      put in interface Put<K,V>

      put in class AbstractMapDecorator<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - key with which the specified value is to be associated
      value - value to be associated with the specified key
      Returns:
      the previous value associated with key, or null if there was no mapping for key. (A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with key, if the implementation supports null values.)
