public class TreeBidiMap<K extends Comparable,V extends Comparable>
extends Object
implements OrderedBidiMap<K,V>

Red-Black tree-based implementation of BidiMap where all objects added implement the Comparable interface.

This class guarantees that the map will be in both ascending key order and ascending value order, sorted according to the natural order for the key's and value's classes.

This Map is intended for applications that need to be able to look up a key-value pairing by either key or value, and need to do so with equal efficiency.

While that goal could be accomplished by taking a pair of TreeMaps and redirecting requests to the appropriate TreeMap (e.g., containsKey would be directed to the TreeMap that maps values to keys, containsValue would be directed to the TreeMap that maps keys to values), there are problems with that implementation. If the data contained in the TreeMaps is large, the cost of redundant storage becomes significant. The DualTreeBidiMap and DualHashBidiMap implementations use this approach.

This solution keeps minimizes the data storage by holding data only once. The red-black algorithm is based on java util TreeMap, but has been modified to simultaneously map a tree node by key and by value. This doubles the cost of put operations (but so does using two TreeMaps), and nearly doubles the cost of remove operations (there is a savings in that the lookup of the node to be removed only has to be performed once). And since only one node contains the key and value, storage is significantly less than that required by two TreeMaps.

The Map.Entry instances returned by the appropriate methods will not allow setValue() and will throw an UnsupportedOperationException on attempts to call that method.

Constructor Detail

TreeBidiMap

public TreeBidiMap()
Constructs a new empty TreeBidiMap.


TreeBidiMap

public TreeBidiMap(Map map)
Constructs a new TreeBidiMap by copying an existing Map.

Parameters:
map - the map to copy

the number of key-value mappings in this map

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Checks whether the map is empty or not.

Specified by:

Returns:
true if the map is empty

containsKey

public boolean containsKey(Object key)
Checks whether this map contains the a mapping for the specified key.

The key must implement Comparable.

Specified by:
containsKey in interface Map<K extends Comparable,V extends Comparable>
Parameters:
key - key whose presence in this map is to be tested
Returns:
true if this map contains a mapping for the specified key
Throws:
ClassCastException - if the key is of an inappropriate type
NullPointerException - if the key is null

containsValue

public boolean containsValue(Object value)
Checks whether this map contains the a mapping for the specified value.

The value must implement Comparable.

Specified by:
containsValue in interface Map<K extends Comparable,V extends Comparable>
Parameters:
value - value whose presence in this map is to be tested
Returns:
true if this map contains a mapping for the specified value
Throws:
ClassCastException - if the value is of an inappropriate type
NullPointerException - if the value is null

get

public V get(Object key)
Gets the value to which this map maps the specified key. Returns null if the map contains no mapping for this key.

The key must implement Comparable.

Specified by:

put

public V put(K key,

When adding a key-value pair, the value may already exist in the map against a different key. That mapping is removed, to ensure that the value only occurs once in the inverse map.

  BidiMap map1 = new TreeBidiMap();
  map.put("A","B");  // contains A mapped to B, as per Map
  map.put("A","C");  // contains A mapped to C, as per Map
 

BidiMap map2 = new TreeBidiMap(); map.put("A","B"); // contains A mapped to B, as per Map map.put("C","B"); // contains C mapped to B, key A is removed

The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. If the map is modified while an iteration over the set is in progress, the results of the iteration are undefined.

The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map. It does not support the add or addAll operations.
