Class BoundedConcurrentHashMap<K,​V>

  • Type Parameters:
    K - the type of keys maintained by this map
    V - the type of mapped values
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, ConcurrentMap<K,​V>, Map<K,​V>

    public class BoundedConcurrentHashMap<K,​V>
    extends AbstractMap<K,​V>
    implements ConcurrentMap<K,​V>, Serializable
    A hash table supporting full concurrency of retrievals and adjustable expected concurrency for updates. This class obeys the same functional specification as Hashtable, and includes versions of methods corresponding to each method of Hashtable. However, even though all operations are thread-safe, retrieval operations do not entail locking, and there is not any support for locking the entire table in a way that prevents all access. This class is fully interoperable with Hashtable in programs that rely on its thread safety but not on its synchronization details.

    Retrieval operations (including get) generally do not block, so may overlap with update operations (including put and remove). Retrievals reflect the results of the most recently completed update operations holding upon their onset. For aggregate operations such as putAll and clear, concurrent retrievals may reflect insertion or removal of only some entries. Similarly, Iterators and Enumerations return elements reflecting the state of the hash table at some point at or since the creation of the iterator/enumeration. They do not throw ConcurrentModificationException. However, iterators are designed to be used by only one thread at a time.

    The allowed concurrency among update operations is guided by the optional concurrencyLevel constructor argument (default 16), which is used as a hint for internal sizing. The table is internally partitioned to try to permit the indicated number of concurrent updates without contention. Because placement in hash tables is essentially random, the actual concurrency will vary. Ideally, you should choose a value to accommodate as many threads as will ever concurrently modify the table. Using a significantly higher value than you need can waste space and time, and a significantly lower value can lead to thread contention. But overestimates and underestimates within an order of magnitude do not usually have much noticeable impact. A value of one is appropriate when it is known that only one thread will modify and all others will only read. Also, resizing this or any other kind of hash table is a relatively slow operation, so, when possible, it is a good idea to provide estimates of expected table sizes in constructors.

    This class and its views and iterators implement all of the optional methods of the Map and Iterator interfaces.

    Like Hashtable but unlike HashMap, this class does not allow null to be used as a key or value.

      • isEmpty

        public boolean isEmpty()
        Specified by:
        isEmpty in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        isEmpty in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
        Returns:
        true if this map contains no key-value mappings
      • size

        public int size()
        Returns the number of key-value mappings in this map. If the map contains more than Integer.MAX_VALUE elements, returns Integer.MAX_VALUE.
        Specified by:
        size in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        size in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
        Returns:
        the number of key-value mappings in this map
      • get

        public V get​(Object key)
        Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped, or null if this map contains no mapping for the key.

        More formally, if this map contains a mapping from a key k to a value v such that key.equals(k), then this method returns v; otherwise it returns null. (There can be at most one such mapping.)

        Specified by:
        get in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        get in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the specified key is null
      • containsKey

        public boolean containsKey​(Object key)
        Tests if the specified object is a key in this table.
        Specified by:
        containsKey in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        containsKey in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - possible key
        Returns:
        true if and only if the specified object is a key in this table, as determined by the equals method; false otherwise.
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the specified key is null
      • containsValue

        public boolean containsValue​(Object value)
        Returns true if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value. Note: This method requires a full internal traversal of the hash table, and so is much slower than method containsKey.
        Specified by:
        containsValue in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        containsValue in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        value - value whose presence in this map is to be tested
        Returns:
        true if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the specified value is null
      • contains

        public boolean contains​(Object value)
        Legacy method testing if some key maps into the specified value in this table. This method is identical in functionality to containsValue(java.lang.Object), and exists solely to ensure full compatibility with class Hashtable, which supported this method prior to introduction of the Java Collections framework.
        Parameters:
        value - a value to search for
        Returns:
        true if and only if some key maps to the value argument in this table as determined by the equals method; false otherwise
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the specified value is null
      • put

        public V put​(K key,
                     V value)
        Maps the specified key to the specified value in this table. Neither the key nor the value can be null.

        The value can be retrieved by calling the get method with a key that is equal to the original key.

        Specified by:
        put in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        put in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - key with which the specified value is to be associated
        value - value to be associated with the specified key
        Returns:
        the previous value associated with key, or null if there was no mapping for key
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the specified key or value is null

        public V putIfAbsent​(K key,
                             V value)
        Specified by:
        putIfAbsent in interface ConcurrentMap<K,​V>
        Specified by:
        putIfAbsent in interface Map<K,​V>

      • putAll

        public void putAll​(Map<? extends K,​? extends V> m)
        Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to this one. These mappings replace any mappings that this map had for any of the keys currently in the specified map.
        Specified by:
        putAll in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        putAll in class AbstractMap<K,​V>

      • remove

        public V remove​(Object key)
        Removes the key (and its corresponding value) from this map. This method does nothing if the key is not in the map.

        NullPointerException - if the specified key or value is null
      • clear

        public void clear()
        Removes all of the mappings from this map.
        Specified by:
        clear in interface Map<K,​V>

      • keySet

        public Set<K> keySet()
        Returns a Set view of the keys contained in this map. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

        The view's iterator is a "weakly consistent" iterator that will never throw ConcurrentModificationException, and guarantees to traverse elements as they existed upon construction of the iterator, and may (but is not guaranteed to) reflect any modifications subsequent to construction.

        Specified by:
        keySet in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        keySet in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
      • values

        public Collection<V> values()
        Returns a Collection view of the values contained in this map. The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the Iterator.remove, Collection.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

        The view's iterator is a "weakly consistent" iterator that will never throw ConcurrentModificationException, and guarantees to traverse elements as they existed upon construction of the iterator, and may (but is not guaranteed to) reflect any modifications subsequent to construction.

        Specified by:
        values in interface Map<K,​V>
        Overrides:
        values in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
      • entrySet

        public Set<Map.Entry<K,​V>> entrySet()
        Returns a Set view of the mappings contained in this map. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. 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.

        The view's iterator is a "weakly consistent" iterator that will never throw ConcurrentModificationException, and guarantees to traverse elements as they existed upon construction of the iterator, and may (but is not guaranteed to) reflect any modifications subsequent to construction.
