Method Detail

subMap

NavigableMap subMap(java.lang.Object fromKey,
                    boolean fromInclusive,
                    java.lang.Object toKey,
                    boolean toInclusive)
Description copied from interface: NavigableMap
Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys range from fromKey to toKey. If fromKey and toKey are equal, the returned map is empty unless fromExclusive and toExclusive are both true. The returned map is backed by this map, so changes in the returned map are reflected in this map, and vice-versa. The returned map supports all optional map operations that this map supports.

The returned map will throw an IllegalArgumentException on an attempt to insert a key outside of its range, or to construct a submap either of whose endpoints lie outside its range.

Specified by:
subMap in interface NavigableMap
Parameters:
fromKey - low endpoint of the keys in the returned map
fromInclusive - true if the low endpoint is to be included in the returned view
toKey - high endpoint of the keys in the returned map
toInclusive - true if the high endpoint is to be included in the returned view
Returns:
a view of the portion of this map whose keys range from fromKey to toKey
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException - if fromKey and toKey cannot be compared to one another using this map's comparator (or, if the map has no comparator, using natural ordering). Implementations may, but are not required to, throw this exception if fromKey or toKey cannot be compared to keys currently in the map.
java.lang.NullPointerException - if fromKey or toKey is null and this map does not permit null keys
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if fromKey is greater than toKey; or if this map itself has a restricted range, and fromKey or toKey lies outside the bounds of the range

headMap

NavigableMap headMap(java.lang.Object toKey,
                     boolean inclusive)
Description copied from interface: NavigableMap
Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys are less than (or equal to, if inclusive is true) toKey. The returned map is backed by this map, so changes in the returned map are reflected in this map, and vice-versa. The returned map supports all optional map operations that this map supports.

The returned map will throw an IllegalArgumentException on an attempt to insert a key outside its range.

Specified by:
headMap in interface NavigableMap
Parameters:
toKey - high endpoint of the keys in the returned map
inclusive - true if the high endpoint is to be included in the returned view
Returns:
a view of the portion of this map whose keys are less than (or equal to, if inclusive is true) toKey
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException - if toKey is not compatible with this map's comparator (or, if the map has no comparator, if toKey does not implement Comparable). Implementations may, but are not required to, throw this exception if toKey cannot be compared to keys currently in the map.
java.lang.NullPointerException - if toKey is null and this map does not permit null keys
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this map itself has a restricted range, and toKey lies outside the bounds of the range

tailMap

NavigableMap tailMap(java.lang.Object fromKey,
                     boolean inclusive)
Description copied from interface: NavigableMap
Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys are greater than (or equal to, if inclusive is true) fromKey. The returned map is backed by this map, so changes in the returned map are reflected in this map, and vice-versa. The returned map supports all optional map operations that this map supports.

The returned map will throw an IllegalArgumentException on an attempt to insert a key outside its range.

Specified by:
tailMap in interface NavigableMap
Parameters:
fromKey - low endpoint of the keys in the returned map
inclusive - true if the low endpoint is to be included in the returned view
Returns:
a view of the portion of this map whose keys are greater than (or equal to, if inclusive is true) fromKey
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException - if fromKey is not compatible with this map's comparator (or, if the map has no comparator, if fromKey does not implement Comparable). Implementations may, but are not required to, throw this exception if fromKey cannot be compared to keys currently in the map.
java.lang.NullPointerException - if fromKey is null and this map does not permit null keys
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this map itself has a restricted range, and fromKey lies outside the bounds of the range

subMap

java.util.SortedMap subMap(java.lang.Object fromKey,
                           java.lang.Object toKey)
Description copied from interface: NavigableMap

Equivalent to subMap(fromKey, true, toKey, false).

Specified by:
subMap in interface NavigableMap
Specified by:
subMap in interface java.util.SortedMap
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException
java.lang.NullPointerException
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

headMap

java.util.SortedMap headMap(java.lang.Object toKey)
Description copied from interface: NavigableMap

Equivalent to headMap(toKey, false).

Specified by:
headMap in interface NavigableMap
Specified by:
headMap in interface java.util.SortedMap
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException
java.lang.NullPointerException
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

tailMap

java.util.SortedMap tailMap(java.lang.Object fromKey)
Description copied from interface: NavigableMap

Equivalent to tailMap(fromKey, true).

Specified by:
tailMap in interface NavigableMap
Specified by:
tailMap in interface java.util.SortedMap
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException
java.lang.NullPointerException
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

descendingMap

NavigableMap descendingMap()
Returns a reverse order view of the mappings contained in this map. The descending map is backed by this map, so changes to the map are reflected in the descending map, and vice-versa.

The returned map has an ordering equivalent to Collections.reverseOrder(comparator()). The expression m.descendingMap().descendingMap() returns a view of m essentially equivalent to m.

Specified by:
descendingMap in interface NavigableMap
Returns:
a reverse order view of this map

navigableKeySet

NavigableSet navigableKeySet()
Returns a NavigableSet view of the keys contained in this map. The set's iterator returns the keys in ascending order. 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.

Specified by:
navigableKeySet in interface NavigableMap
Returns:
a navigable set view of the keys in this map

keySet

java.util.Set keySet()
Returns a NavigableSet view of the keys contained in this map. The set's iterator returns the keys in ascending order. 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.

This method is equivalent to method navigableKeySet.

Specified by:
keySet in interface java.util.Map
Specified by:
keySet in interface java.util.SortedMap
Returns:
a navigable set view of the keys in this map

descendingKeySet

NavigableSet descendingKeySet()
Returns a reverse order NavigableSet view of the keys contained in this map. The set's iterator returns the keys in descending order. 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.

Specified by:
descendingKeySet in interface NavigableMap
Returns:
a reverse order navigable set view of the keys in this map
