Compares the specified object with this entry for equality.

Method Detail

equalsback to summary
public boolean equals(Object that)

Overrides java.lang.Object.equals.

Implements java.util.Map.Entry.equals.

Doc from java.util.Map.Entry.equals.

Compares the specified object with this entry for equality. Returns true if the given object is also a map entry and the two entries represent the same mapping. More formally, two entries e1 and e2 represent the same mapping if

    (e1.getKey()==null ?
     e2.getKey()==null : e1.getKey().equals(e2.getKey()))  &&
    (e1.getValue()==null ?
     e2.getValue()==null : e1.getValue().equals(e2.getValue()))
This ensures that the equals method works properly across different implementations of the Map.Entry interface.
Parameters
that:Object

object to be compared for equality with this map entry

Returns:boolean

true if the specified object is equal to this map entry

equalsback to summary
public boolean equals(MapEntry that)
getKeyback to summary
public Object getKey()

Implements java.util.Map.Entry.getKey.

Doc from java.util.Map.Entry.getKey.

Returns the key corresponding to this entry.

Returns:Object

the key corresponding to this entry

getValueback to summary
public Object getValue()

Implements java.util.Map.Entry.getValue.

Doc from java.util.Map.Entry.getValue.

Returns the value corresponding to this entry. If the mapping has been removed from the backing map (by the iterator's remove operation), the results of this call are undefined.

Returns:Object

the value corresponding to this entry

hashback to summary
protected int hash(Object object)

Helper method to handle object hashes for possibly null values

hashCodeback to summary
public int hashCode()

Overrides java.lang.Object.hashCode.

Implements java.util.Map.Entry.hashCode.

Doc from java.util.Map.Entry.hashCode.

Returns the hash code value for this map entry. The hash code of a map entry e is defined to be:

    (e.getKey()==null   ? 0 : e.getKey().hashCode()) ^
    (e.getValue()==null ? 0 : e.getValue().hashCode())
This ensures that e1.equals(e2) implies that e1.hashCode()==e2.hashCode() for any two Entries e1 and e2, as required by the general contract of Object.hashCode.
Returns:int

the hash code value for this map entry

setKeyback to summary
public void setKey(Object key)
setValueback to summary
public Object setValue(Object value)

Implements java.util.Map.Entry.setValue.

Doc from java.util.Map.Entry.setValue.

Replaces the value corresponding to this entry with the specified value (optional operation). (Writes through to the map.) The behavior of this call is undefined if the mapping has already been removed from the map (by the iterator's remove operation).

Parameters
value:Object

new value to be stored in this entry

Returns:Object

old value corresponding to the entry

toStringback to summary
public String toString()

Overrides java.lang.Object.toString.

Doc from java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns:String

a string representation of the object.
