Class PredicatedMap<K,V>

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.commons.collections.map.AbstractMapDecorator<K,V>
      extended by org.apache.commons.collections.map.PredicatedMap<K,V>
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Map<K,V>
Direct Known Subclasses:
PredicatedSortedMap

public class PredicatedMap<K,V>
extends AbstractMapDecorator<K,V>
implements Serializable

Decorates another Map to validate that additions match a specified predicate.

This map exists to provide validation for the decorated map. It is normally created to decorate an empty map. If an object cannot be added to the map, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

One usage would be to ensure that no null keys are added to the map.

Map map = PredicatedSet.decorate(new HashMap(), NotNullPredicate.INSTANCE, null);

This class is Serializable from Commons Collections 3.1.

Field Detail

keyPredicate

protected final Predicate<? super K> keyPredicate
The key predicate to use


valuePredicate

protected final Predicate<? super V> valuePredicate
The value predicate to use

Constructor Detail

PredicatedMap

protected PredicatedMap(Map<K,V> map,
                        Predicate<? super K> keyPredicate,
                        Predicate<? super V> valuePredicate)
Constructor that wraps (not copies).

Parameters:
map - the map to decorate, must not be null
keyPredicate - the predicate to validate the keys, null means no check
valuePredicate - the predicate to validate to values, null means no check
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the map is null
Method Detail

decorate

public static <K,V> Map<K,V> decorate(Map<K,V> map,
                                      Predicate<? super K> keyPredicate,
                                      Predicate<? super V> valuePredicate)
Factory method to create a predicated (validating) map.

If there are any elements already in the list being decorated, they are validated.

Parameters:
map - the map to decorate, must not be null
keyPredicate - the predicate to validate the keys, null means no check
valuePredicate - the predicate to validate to values, null means no check
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the map is null

validate

protected void validate(K key,
                        V value)
Validates a key value pair.

Parameters:
key - the key to validate
value - the value to validate
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if invalid

checkSetValue

protected V checkSetValue(V value)
Override to validate an object set into the map via setValue.

Parameters:
value - the value to validate
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if invalid
Since:
Commons Collections 3.1

isSetValueChecking

protected boolean isSetValueChecking()
Override to only return true when there is a value transformer.

Returns:
true if a value predicate is in use
Since:
Commons Collections 3.1

public V put(K key,
             V value)
Specified by:

putAll

public void putAll(Map<? extends K,? extends V> mapToCopy)
Specified by:
putAll in interface Map<K,V>
Overrides:
putAll in class AbstractMapDecorator<K,V>

entrySet

public Set<Map.Entry<K,V>> entrySet()
Specified by:
entrySet in interface Map<K,V>
Overrides:
entrySet in class AbstractMapDecorator<K,V>
