@Deprecated(since="2021-04-30")
public interface OrderedMap
extends IterableMap

Deprecated.

Commons Collections 3 is in maintenance mode. Commons Collections 4 should be used instead.

Defines a map that maintains order and allows both forward and backward iteration through that order.

Since:

Commons Collections 3.0

Method Detail

orderedMapIterator

OrderedMapIterator orderedMapIterator()

Deprecated.

Obtains an OrderedMapIterator over the map.

A ordered map iterator is an efficient way of iterating over maps in both directions.

 BidiMap map = new TreeBidiMap();
 MapIterator it = map.mapIterator();
 while (it.hasNext()) {
   Object key = it.next();
   Object value = it.getValue();
   it.setValue("newValue");
   Object previousKey = it.previous();
 }
 

Returns:

a map iterator

firstKey

java.lang.Object firstKey()

Deprecated.

Gets the first key currently in this map.

Returns:

the first key currently in this map

Throws:

java.util.NoSuchElementException - if this map is empty

lastKey

java.lang.Object lastKey()

Deprecated.

Gets the last key currently in this map.

Returns:

the last key currently in this map

Throws:

java.util.NoSuchElementException - if this map is empty

nextKey

java.lang.Object nextKey(java.lang.Object key)

Deprecated.

Gets the next key after the one specified.

Parameters:

key - the key to search for next from

Returns:

the next key, null if no match or at end

previousKey

java.lang.Object previousKey(java.lang.Object key)

Deprecated.

Gets the previous key before the one specified.

Parameters:

key - the key to search for previous from

Returns:

the previous key, null if no match or at start
