33/**
34 * An object that maps keys to values.  A map cannot contain duplicate keys;
35 * each key can map to at most one value.
36 *
37 * <p>This interface takes the place of the {@code Dictionary} class, which
38 * was a totally abstract class rather than an interface.
39 *
40 * <p>The {@code Map} interface provides three <i>collection views</i>, which
41 * allow a map's contents to be viewed as a set of keys, collection of values,
42 * or set of key-value mappings.  The <i>order</i> of a map is defined as
43 * the order in which the iterators on the map's collection views return their
44 * elements.  Some map implementations, like the {@code TreeMap} class, make
45 * specific guarantees as to their order; others, like the {@code HashMap}
46 * class, do not.
47 *
48 * <p>Note: great care must be exercised if mutable objects are used as map
49 * keys.  The behavior of a map is not specified if the value of an object is
50 * changed in a manner that affects {@code equals} comparisons while the
51 * object is a key in the map.  A special case of this prohibition is that it
52 * is not permissible for a map to contain itself as a key.  While it is
53 * permissible for a map to contain itself as a value, extreme caution is
54 * advised: the {@code equals} and {@code hashCode} methods are no longer
55 * well defined on such a map.
56 *
57 * <p>All general-purpose map implementation classes should provide two
58 * "standard" constructors: a void (no arguments) constructor which creates an
59 * empty map, and a constructor with a single argument of type {@code Map},
60 * which creates a new map with the same key-value mappings as its argument.
61 * In effect, the latter constructor allows the user to copy any map,
62 * producing an equivalent map of the desired class.  There is no way to
63 * enforce this recommendation (as interfaces cannot contain constructors) but
64 * all of the general-purpose map implementations in the JDK comply.
65 *
66 * <p>The "destructive" methods contained in this interface, that is, the
67 * methods that modify the map on which they operate, are specified to throw
68 * {@code UnsupportedOperationException} if this map does not support the
69 * operation.  If this is the case, these methods may, but are not required
70 * to, throw an {@code UnsupportedOperationException} if the invocation would
71 * have no effect on the map.  For example, invoking the {@link #putAll(Map)}
72 * method on an unmodifiable map may, but is not required to, throw the
73 * exception if the map whose mappings are to be "superimposed" is empty.
74 *
75 * <p>Some map implementations have restrictions on the keys and values they
76 * may contain.  For example, some implementations prohibit null keys and
77 * values, and some have restrictions on the types of their keys.  Attempting
78 * to insert an ineligible key or value throws an unchecked exception,
79 * typically {@code NullPointerException} or {@code ClassCastException}.
80 * Attempting to query the presence of an ineligible key or value may throw an
81 * exception, or it may simply return false; some implementations will exhibit
82 * the former behavior and some will exhibit the latter.  More generally,
83 * attempting an operation on an ineligible key or value whose completion
84 * would not result in the insertion of an ineligible element into the map may
85 * throw an exception or it may succeed, at the option of the implementation.
86 * Such exceptions are marked as "optional" in the specification for this
87 * interface.
88 *
89 * <p>Many methods in Collections Framework interfaces are defined
90 * in terms of the {@link Object#equals(Object) equals} method.  For
91 * example, the specification for the {@link #containsKey(Object)
92 * containsKey(Object key)} method says: "returns {@code true} if and
93 * only if this map contains a mapping for a key {@code k} such that
94 * {@code (key==null ? k==null : key.equals(k))}." This specification should
95 * <i>not</i> be construed to imply that invoking {@code Map.containsKey}
96 * with a non-null argument {@code key} will cause {@code key.equals(k)} to
97 * be invoked for any key {@code k}.  Implementations are free to
98 * implement optimizations whereby the {@code equals} invocation is avoided,
99 * for example, by first comparing the hash codes of the two keys.  (The
100 * {@link Object#hashCode()} specification guarantees that two objects with
101 * unequal hash codes cannot be equal.)  More generally, implementations of
102 * the various Collections Framework interfaces are free to take advantage of
103 * the specified behavior of underlying {@link Object} methods wherever the
104 * implementor deems it appropriate.
105 *
106 * <p>Some map operations which perform recursive traversal of the map may fail
107 * with an exception for self-referential instances where the map directly or
108 * indirectly contains itself. This includes the {@code clone()},
109 * {@code equals()}, {@code hashCode()} and {@code toString()} methods.
110 * Implementations may optionally handle the self-referential scenario, however
111 * most current implementations do not do so.
112 *
113 * <h2><a id="immutable">Immutable Map Static Factory Methods</a></h2>
114 * <p>The {@link Map#of() Map.of()} and
115 * {@link Map#ofEntries(Map.Entry...) Map.ofEntries()}
116 * static factory methods provide a convenient way to create immutable maps.
117 * The {@code Map}
118 * instances created by these methods have the following characteristics:
119 *
120 * <ul>
121 * <li>They are <em>structurally immutable</em>. Keys and values cannot be added,
122 * removed, or updated. Calling any mutator method will always cause
123 * {@code UnsupportedOperationException} to be thrown.
124 * However, if the contained keys or values are themselves mutable, this may cause the
125 * Map to behave inconsistently or its contents to appear to change.
126 * <li>They disallow {@code null} keys and values. Attempts to create them with
127 * {@code null} keys or values result in {@code NullPointerException}.
128 * <li>They are serializable if all keys and values are serializable.
129 * <li>They reject duplicate keys at creation time. Duplicate keys
130 * passed to a static factory method result in {@code IllegalArgumentException}.
131 * <li>The iteration order of mappings is unspecified and is subject to change.
132 * <li>They are <a href="../lang/doc-files/ValueBased.html">value-based</a>.
133 * Callers should make no assumptions about the identity of the returned instances.
134 * Factories are free to create new instances or reuse existing ones. Therefore,
135 * identity-sensitive operations on these instances (reference equality ({@code ==}),
136 * identity hash code, and synchronization) are unreliable and should be avoided.
137 * <li>They are serialized as specified on the
138 * <a href="{@docRoot}/serialized-form.html#java.util.CollSer">Serialized Form</a>
139 * page.
140 * </ul>
