    • asMap

      public Map<K,Collection<V>> asMap()
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Returns a view of this multivalued map as a Map from each distinct key to the non-empty collection of that key's associated values.

      Note that this.asMap().get(k) is equivalent to this.get(k) only when k is a key contained in the multivalued map; otherwise it returns null as opposed to an empty collection.

      Changes to the returned map or the collections that serve as its values will update the underlying multivalued map, and vice versa. The map does not support put or putAll, nor do its entries support setValue.

      Specified by:
      asMap in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      a map view of the mappings in this multivalued map

    • clear

      public void clear()
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Removes all of the mappings from this map (optional operation).

      The map will be empty after this call returns.

      Specified by:
      clear in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>

    • containsKey

      public boolean containsKey(Object key)
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Returns true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key. More formally, returns true if and only if this map contains a mapping for a key k such that (key==null ? k==null : key.equals(k)). (There can be at most one such mapping.)
      Specified by:
      containsKey in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - key whose presence in this map is to be tested
      Returns:
      true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key

    • containsMapping

      public boolean containsMapping(Object key, Object value)
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap

    • entries

      public Collection<Map.Entry<K,V>> entries()
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Returns a Collection view of the mappings contained in this multivalued map.

      The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa.

      Specified by:
      entries in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      a set view of the mappings contained in this map

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object

    • get

      public Collection<V> get(K key)
      Gets the collection of values associated with the specified key. This would return an empty collection in case the mapping is not present
      Specified by:
      get in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - the key to retrieve
      Returns:
      the Collection of values, will return an empty Collection for no mapping

    • getMap

      protected Map<K,? extends Collection<V>> getMap()
      Gets the map being wrapped.
      Returns:
      the wrapped map

    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object

    • isEmpty

      public boolean isEmpty()
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Returns true if this map contains no key-value mappings.
      Specified by:
      isEmpty in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      true if this map contains no key-value mappings

    • keys

      public MultiSet<K> keys()
      Returns a MultiSet view of the key mapping contained in this map.

      Returns a MultiSet of keys with its values count as the count of the MultiSet. This multiset is backed by the map, so any changes in the map is reflected here. Any method which modifies this multiset like add, remove, Iterator.remove() etc throws UnsupportedOperationException.

      Specified by:
      keys in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      a bag view of the key mapping contained in this map

    • keySet

      public Set<K> keySet()
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Returns a Set view of the keys contained in this multivalued map.

      The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa.

      If the map is modified while an iteration over the set is in progress (except through the iterator's own remove operation), the result of the iteration is undefined. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

      Specified by:
      keySet in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      a set view of the keys contained in this map

    • mapIterator

      public MapIterator<K,V> mapIterator()
      Description copied from interface: MultiValuedMap
      Obtains a MapIterator over this multivalued map.

      A map iterator is an efficient way of iterating over maps. There is no need to access the entries collection or use Map.Entry objects.

      Specified by:
      mapIterator in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      a map iterator

    • put

      public boolean put(K key, V value)
      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.

      Specified by:
      put in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      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

    • putAll

      public boolean putAll(K key, Iterable<? extends V> values)
      Adds Iterable values to the collection associated with the specified key.
      Specified by:
      putAll in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - the key to store against
      values - the values to add to the collection at the key, may not be null
      Returns:
      true if this map changed
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if values is null

    • putAll

      public boolean putAll(Map<? extends K,? extends V> map)
      Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to this map. The effect of this call is equivalent to that of calling put(k, v) on this map once for each mapping from key k to value v in the specified map. The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified map is modified while the operation is in progress.
      Specified by:
      putAll in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      map - mappings to be stored in this map, may not be null
      Returns:
      true if the map changed as a result of this operation
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if map is null

    • putAll

      public boolean putAll(MultiValuedMap<? extends K,? extends V> map)
      Copies all of the mappings from the specified MultiValuedMap to this map. The effect of this call is equivalent to that of calling put(k, v) on this map once for each mapping from key k to value v in the specified map. The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified map is modified while the operation is in progress.
      Specified by:
      putAll in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      map - mappings to be stored in this map, may not be null
      Returns:
      true if the map changed as a result of this operation
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if map is null

    • remove

      public Collection<V> remove(Object key)
      Removes all values associated with the specified key.

      A subsequent get(Object) would return an empty collection.

      Specified by:
      remove in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - the key to remove values from
      Returns:
      the Collection of values removed, will return an empty, unmodifiable collection for no mapping found

    • removeMapping

      public boolean removeMapping(Object key, Object value)
      Removes a specific key/value mapping from the multivalued map.

      The value is removed from the collection mapped to the specified key. Other values attached to that key are unaffected.

      If the last value for a key is removed, an empty collection would be returned from a subsequent get(Object).

      Specified by:
      removeMapping in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Parameters:
      key - the key to remove from
      value - the value to remove
      Returns:
      true if the mapping was removed, false otherwise

    • setMap

      protected void setMap(Map<K,? extends Collection<V>> map)
      Sets the map being wrapped.

      NOTE: this method should only be used during deserialization

      Parameters:
      map - the map to wrap

    • size

      public int size()
      Gets the total size of the map.

      Implementations would return the total size of the map which is the count of the values from all keys.

      This implementation does not cache the total size of the multivalued map, but rather calculates it by iterating over the entries of the underlying map.

      Specified by:
      size in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      the total size of the map

    • toString

      public String toString()
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object

    • values

      public Collection<V> values()
      Gets a collection containing all the values in the map.

      Returns a collection containing all the values from all keys.

      Specified by:
      values in interface MultiValuedMap<K,V>
      Returns:
      a collection view of the values contained in this map
