Class MapToByteKeyMapAdapter

java.lang.Object
  bak.pcj.map.AbstractByteKeyMap
      bak.pcj.adapter.MapToByteKeyMapAdapter

All Implemented Interfaces:: ByteKeyMap

public class MapToByteKeyMapAdapter
extends AbstractByteKeyMap
implements ByteKeyMap

This class represents adaptions of Java Collections Framework maps to primitive maps from byte values to objects. The adapter is implemented as a wrapper around the map. Thus, changes to the underlying map are reflected by this map and vice versa.

Adapters from JCF maps to primitive map will fail if the JCF collection contains null keys or keys of the wrong class. However, adapters are not fast failing in the case that the underlying map should contain illegal keys. To implement fast failure would require every operation to check every key of the underlying map before doing anything. Instead validation methods are provided. They can be called using the assertion facility in the client code:

      MapToByteKeyMapAdapter s;
      ...
      assert s.validate();

or by letting the adapter throw an exception on illegal values:

      MapToByteKeyMapAdapter s;
      ...
      s.evalidate();  // Throws an exception on illegal values

Either way, validation must be invoked directly by the client code.

Field Summary
`protected Map`	`map` The underlying map.

Constructor Summary
`MapToByteKeyMapAdapter(Map map)` Creates a new adaption to a map from byte values to objects.
`MapToByteKeyMapAdapter(Map map, boolean validate)` Creates a new adaption to a map from byte values to objects.

Method Summary
`void`	`clear()` Clears this map.

`ByteKeyMapIterator`	`entries()` Returns an iterator over the entries of this map.
`void`	`evalidate()` Validates the map underlying this adapter and throws an exception if it is invalid.
`Object`	`get(byte key)` Maps a specified key to a value.
`ByteSet`	`keySet()` Returns a set view of the keys of this map.
`Object`	`put(byte key, Object value)` Adds a mapping from a specified key to a specified value to this map.
`Object`	`remove(byte key)` Removes the mapping from a specified key from this map.
`int`	`size()` Returns the size of this map.
`boolean`	`validate()` Indicates whether the underlying map is valid for this adapter.

Constructor Detail

MapToByteKeyMapAdapter

public MapToByteKeyMapAdapter(Map map)

Creates a new adaption to a map from byte values to objects.
Parameters:: map - the underlying map. This map must consist of keys of class Byte. Otherwise a ClassCastException will be thrown by some methods.
Throws:: NullPointerException - if map is null.

MapToByteKeyMapAdapter

public MapToByteKeyMapAdapter(Map map,
                              boolean validate)

Creates a new adaption to a map from byte values to objects. The map to adapt is optionally validated.
Parameters:: map - the underlying map. This map must consist of keys of class Byte. Otherwise a ClassCastException will be thrown by some methods.; validate - indicates whether map should be checked for illegal keys.
Throws:: NullPointerException - if map is null.; IllegalStateException - if validate is true and map contains a null key or a key that is not of class Byte.
