| 29 | +/** | |
| 30 | + * <p>Hash table and linked list implementation of the <tt>Map</tt> interface, | |
| 31 | + * with predictable iteration order. This implementation differs from | |
| 32 | + * <tt>HashMap</tt> in that it maintains a doubly-linked list running through | |
| 33 | + * all of its entries. This linked list defines the iteration ordering, | |
| 34 | + * which is normally the order in which keys were inserted into the map | |
| 35 | + * (<i>insertion-order</i>). Note that insertion order is not affected | |
| 36 | + * if a key is <i>re-inserted</i> into the map. (A key <tt>k</tt> is | |
| 37 | + * reinserted into a map <tt>m</tt> if <tt>m.put(k, v)</tt> is invoked when | |
| 38 | + * <tt>m.containsKey(k)</tt> would return <tt>true</tt> immediately prior to | |
| 39 | + * the invocation.) | |
| 40 | + * | |
| 41 | + * <p>This implementation spares its clients from the unspecified, generally | |
| 42 | + * chaotic ordering provided by {@link HashMap} (and {@link Hashtable}), | |
| 43 | + * without incurring the increased cost associated with {@link TreeMap}. It | |
| 44 | + * can be used to produce a copy of a map that has the same order as the | |
| 45 | + * original, regardless of the original map's implementation: | |
| 46 | + * <pre> | |
| 47 | + * void foo(Map m) { | |
| 48 | + * Map copy = new LinkedHashMap(m); | |
| 49 | + * ... | |
| 50 | + * } | |
| 51 | + * </pre> | |
| 52 | + * This technique is particularly useful if a module takes a map on input, | |
| 53 | + * copies it, and later returns results whose order is determined by that of | |
| 54 | + * the copy. (Clients generally appreciate having things returned in the same | |
| 55 | + * order they were presented.) | |
| 56 | + * | |
| 57 | + * <p>A special {@link #LinkedHashMap(int,float,boolean) constructor} is | |
| 58 | + * provided to create a linked hash map whose order of iteration is the order | |
| 59 | + * in which its entries were last accessed, from least-recently accessed to | |
| 60 | + * most-recently (<i>access-order</i>). This kind of map is well-suited to | |
| 61 | + * building LRU caches. Invoking the <tt>put</tt> or <tt>get</tt> method | |
| 62 | + * results in an access to the corresponding entry (assuming it exists after | |
| 63 | + * the invocation completes). The <tt>putAll</tt> method generates one entry | |
| 64 | + * access for each mapping in the specified map, in the order that key-value | |
| 65 | + * mappings are provided by the specified map's entry set iterator. <i>No | |
| 66 | + * other methods generate entry accesses.</i> In particular, operations on | |
| 67 | + * collection-views do <i>not</i> affect the order of iteration of the backing | |
| 68 | + * map. | |
| 69 | + * | |
| 70 | + * <p>The {@link #removeEldestEntry(Map.Entry)} method may be overridden to | |
| 71 | + * impose a policy for removing stale mappings automatically when new mappings | |
| 72 | + * are added to the map. | |
| 73 | + * | |
| 74 | + * <p>This class provides all of the optional <tt>Map</tt> operations, and | |
| 75 | + * permits null elements. Like <tt>HashMap</tt>, it provides constant-time | |
| 76 | + * performance for the basic operations (<tt>add</tt>, <tt>contains</tt> and | |
| 77 | + * <tt>remove</tt>), assuming the hash function disperses elements | |
| 78 | + * properly among the buckets. Performance is likely to be just slightly | |
| 79 | + * below that of <tt>HashMap</tt>, due to the added expense of maintaining the | |
| 80 | + * linked list, with one exception: Iteration over the collection-views | |
| 81 | + * of a <tt>LinkedHashMap</tt> requires time proportional to the <i>size</i> | |
| 82 | + * of the map, regardless of its capacity. Iteration over a <tt>HashMap</tt> | |
| 83 | + * is likely to be more expensive, requiring time proportional to its | |
| 84 | + * <i>capacity</i>. | |
| 85 | + * | |
| 86 | + * <p>A linked hash map has two parameters that affect its performance: | |
| 87 | + * <i>initial capacity</i> and <i>load factor</i>. They are defined precisely | |
| 88 | + * as for <tt>HashMap</tt>. Note, however, that the penalty for choosing an | |
| 89 | + * excessively high value for initial capacity is less severe for this class | |
| 90 | + * than for <tt>HashMap</tt>, as iteration times for this class are unaffected | |
| 91 | + * by capacity. | |
| 92 | + * | |
| 93 | + * <p><strong>Note that this implementation is not synchronized.</strong> | |
| 94 | + * If multiple threads access a linked hash map concurrently, and at least | |
| 95 | + * one of the threads modifies the map structurally, it <em>must</em> be | |
| 96 | + * synchronized externally. This is typically accomplished by | |
| 97 | + * synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the map. | |
| 98 | + * | |
| 99 | + * If no such object exists, the map should be "wrapped" using the | |
| 100 | + * {@link Collections#synchronizedMap Collections.synchronizedMap} | |
| 101 | + * method. This is best done at creation time, to prevent accidental | |
| 102 | + * unsynchronized access to the map:<pre> | |
| 103 | + * Map m = Collections.synchronizedMap(new LinkedHashMap(...));</pre> | |
| 104 | + * | |
| 105 | + * A structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more | |
| 106 | + * mappings or, in the case of access-ordered linked hash maps, affects | |
| 107 | + * iteration order. In insertion-ordered linked hash maps, merely changing | |
| 108 | + * the value associated with a key that is already contained in the map is not | |
| 109 | + * a structural modification. <strong>In access-ordered linked hash maps, | |
| 110 | + * merely querying the map with <tt>get</tt> is a structural | |
| 111 | + * modification.</strong>) | |
| 112 | + * | |
| 113 | + * <p>The iterators returned by the <tt>iterator</tt> method of the collections | |
| 114 | + * returned by all of this class's collection view methods are | |
| 115 | + * <em>fail-fast</em>: if the map is structurally modified at any time after | |
| 116 | + * the iterator is created, in any way except through the iterator's own | |
| 117 | + * <tt>remove</tt> method, the iterator will throw a {@link | |
| 118 | + * ConcurrentModificationException}. Thus, in the face of concurrent | |
| 119 | + * modification, the iterator fails quickly and cleanly, rather than risking | |
| 120 | + * arbitrary, non-deterministic behavior at an undetermined time in the future. | |
| 121 | + * | |
| 122 | + * <p>Note that the fail-fast behavior of an iterator cannot be guaranteed | |
| 123 | + * as it is, generally speaking, impossible to make any hard guarantees in the | |
| 124 | + * presence of unsynchronized concurrent modification. Fail-fast iterators | |
| 125 | + * throw <tt>ConcurrentModificationException</tt> on a best-effort basis. | |
| 126 | + * Therefore, it would be wrong to write a program that depended on this | |
| 127 | + * exception for its correctness: <i>the fail-fast behavior of iterators | |
| 128 | + * should be used only to detect bugs.</i> | |
| 129 | + * | |

| 453 | + * the map to reduce memory consumption by deleting stale entries. | |
| 454 | + * | |
| 455 | + * <p>Sample use: this override will allow the map to grow up to 100 | |
| 456 | + * entries and then delete the eldest entry each time a new entry is | |
| 457 | + * added, maintaining a steady state of 100 entries. | |

| 472 | + * after modifying the map from within this method are unspecified. | |
| 473 | + * | |
