Class MultiValueMap<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:
    java.io.Serializable, java.util.Map<K,​java.lang.Object>, Get<K,​java.lang.Object>, IterableGet<K,​java.lang.Object>, IterableMap<K,​java.lang.Object>, MultiMap<K,​V>, Put<K,​java.lang.Object>
    @Deprecated
public class MultiValueMap<K,​V>
extends AbstractMapDecorator<K,​java.lang.Object>
implements MultiMap<K,​V>, java.io.Serializable
    Deprecated.
    since 4.1, use MultiValuedMap instead
    A MultiValueMap decorates another map, allowing it to have more than one value for a key.

    A MultiMap is a Map with slightly different semantics. Putting a value into the map will add the value to a Collection at that key. Getting a value will return a Collection, holding all the values put to that key.

    This implementation is a decorator, allowing any Map implementation to be used as the base.

    In addition, this implementation allows the type of collection used for the values to be controlled. By default, an ArrayList is used, however a Class to instantiate may be specified, or a factory that returns a Collection instance.

    Note that MultiValueMap is not synchronized and is not thread-safe. If you wish to use this map from multiple threads concurrently, you must use appropriate synchronization. This class may throw exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.

        Deprecated.
        Adds the value to the collection associated with the specified key.

        Unlike a normal Map the previous value is not replaced. Instead the new value is added to the collection stored against the key.

        key - the key to store against
        value - the value to add to the collection at the key
        Returns:
        the value added if the map changed and null if the map did not change

        public void putAll​(java.util.Map<? extends K,​?> map)
        Deprecated.
        Override superclass to ensure that MultiMap instances are correctly handled.

        If you call this method with a normal map, each entry is added using put(Object,Object). If you call this method with a multi map, each entry is added using putAll(Object,Collection).

        Specified by:

        Specified by:
        putAll in interface Put<K,​V>

        Deprecated.

        NOTE: the returned Entry objects will contain as value a Collection of all values that are mapped to the given key. To get a "flattened" version of all mappings contained in this map, use iterator().
