Class ArrayListMultimap<K,​V>

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ListMultimap<K,​V>, Multimap<K,​V>, java.io.Serializable
    @GwtCompatible(serializable=true,
               emulated=true)
public final class ArrayListMultimap<K,​V>
extends java.lang.Object
    Implementation of Multimap that uses an ArrayList to store the values for a given key. A HashMap associates each key with an ArrayList of values.

    When iterating through the collections supplied by this class, the ordering of values for a given key agrees with the order in which the values were added.

    This multimap allows duplicate key-value pairs. After adding a new key-value pair equal to an existing key-value pair, the ArrayListMultimap will contain entries for both the new value and the old value.

    Keys and values may be null. All optional multimap methods are supported, and all returned views are modifiable.

    The lists returned by ListMultimap.get(K), ListMultimap.removeAll(java.lang.Object), and ListMultimap.replaceValues(K, java.lang.Iterable<? extends V>) all implement RandomAccess.

    This class is not threadsafe when any concurrent operations update the multimap. Concurrent read operations will work correctly. To allow concurrent update operations, wrap your multimap with a call to Multimaps.synchronizedListMultimap(com.google.common.collect.ListMultimap<K, V>).

    See the Guava User Guide article on Multimap.

      • trimToSize

        public void trimToSize()
        Reduces the memory used by this ArrayListMultimap, if feasible.

      • get

        public java.util.List<V> get​(@Nullable
                             K key)
        Returns a collection view containing the values associated with key in this multimap, if any. Note that even when (containsKey(key) is false, get(key) still returns an empty collection, not null.

        Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.

        The returned collection is not serializable.

        Because the values for a given key may have duplicates and follow the insertion ordering, this method returns a List, instead of the Collection specified in the Multimap interface.

        Specified by:
        get in interface ListMultimap<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        get in interface Multimap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - key to search for in multimap
        Returns:
        a view collection containing the zero or more values that the key maps to

      • removeAll

        public java.util.List<V> removeAll​(@Nullable
                                   java.lang.Object key)
        Removes all values associated with a given key.

        Once this method returns, key will not be mapped to any values, so it will not appear in Multimap.keySet(), Multimap.asMap(), or any other views.

        The returned collection is immutable.

        Because the values for a given key may have duplicates and follow the insertion ordering, this method returns a List, instead of the Collection specified in the Multimap interface.

        Specified by:
        removeAll in interface ListMultimap<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        removeAll in interface Multimap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - key of entries to remove from the multimap
        Returns:
        the collection of removed values, or an empty collection if no values were associated with the provided key. The collection may be modifiable, but updating it will have no effect on the multimap.

      • replaceValues

        public java.util.List<V> replaceValues​(@Nullable
                                       K key,
                                       java.lang.Iterable<? extends V> values)
        Stores a collection of values with the same key, replacing any existing values for that key.

        If values is empty, this is equivalent to removeAll(key).

        The returned collection is immutable.

        Because the values for a given key may have duplicates and follow the insertion ordering, this method returns a List, instead of the Collection specified in the Multimap interface.

        Specified by:
        replaceValues in interface ListMultimap<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        replaceValues in interface Multimap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - key to store in the multimap
        values - values to store in the multimap
        Returns:
        the collection of replaced values, or an empty collection if no values were previously associated with the key. The collection may be modifiable, but updating it will have no effect on the multimap.

      • put

        public boolean put​(@Nullable
                   K key,
                   @Nullable
                   V value)
        Stores a key-value pair in the multimap.
        Specified by:
        put in interface Multimap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - key to store in the multimap
        value - value to store in the multimap
        Returns:
        true always

      • asMap

        public java.util.Map<K,​java.util.Collection<V>> asMap()
        Returns a map view that associates each key with the corresponding values in the multimap. Changes to the returned map, such as element removal, will update the underlying multimap. The map does not support setValue() on its entries, put, or putAll.

        When passed a key that is present in the map, asMap().get(Object) has the same behavior as Multimap.get(K), returning a live collection. When passed a key that is not present, however, asMap().get(Object) returns null instead of an empty collection.

        Though the method signature doesn't say so explicitly, the returned map has List values.

        Specified by:
        asMap in interface ListMultimap<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        asMap in interface Multimap<K,​V>
        Returns:
        a map view from a key to its collection of values

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(@Nullable
                      java.lang.Object object)
        Compares the specified object to this multimap for equality.

        Two ListMultimap instances are equal if, for each key, they contain the same values in the same order. If the value orderings disagree, the multimaps will not be considered equal.

        Specified by:
        equals in interface ListMultimap<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        equals in interface Multimap<K,​V>

      • values

        public java.util.Collection<V> values()
        Returns a collection of all values in the multimap. Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.

        The iterator generated by the returned collection traverses the values for one key, followed by the values of a second key, and so on.

        Specified by:
        values in interface Multimap<K,​V>
        Returns:
        collection of values, which may include the same value multiple times if it occurs in multiple mappings

      • entries

        public java.util.Collection<java.util.Map.Entry<K,​V>> entries()
        Returns a collection of all key-value pairs. Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa. The entries collection does not support the add or addAll operations.

        The iterator generated by the returned collection traverses the values for one key, followed by the values of a second key, and so on.

        Each entry is an immutable snapshot of a key-value mapping in the multimap, taken at the time the entry is returned by a method call to the collection or its iterator.

      • putAll

        public boolean putAll​(@Nullable
                      K key,
                      java.lang.Iterable<? extends V> values)
        Description copied from interface: Multimap
        Stores key-value pairs in this multimap with one key and multiple values.

        This is equivalent to 

           
 
   for (V value : values) {
     put(key, value);
   }

        In particular, this is a no-op if values is empty.

        Description copied from interface: Multimap
        Returns the set of all keys, each appearing once in the returned set. Changes to the returned set will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.

        Note that the key set contains a key if and only if this multimap maps that key to at least one value.

        Specified by:
        keySet in interface Multimap<K,​V>
