Interface BasicEMap.Entry<K,V>

All Superinterfaces:

java.util.Map.Entry<K,V>

All Known Implementing Classes:

BasicEMap.EntryImpl

Enclosing class:

BasicEMap<K,V>

public static interface BasicEMap.Entry<K,V>
extends java.util.Map.Entry<K,V>

An extended implementation interface for caching hash values and for updating an entry that may be manufactured as a uninitialized instance by a factory. No client is expected to use this interface, other than to implement it in conjunction with a map implementation.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	getHash() Returns the hash code of the key.
void	setHash(int hash) Sets the hash code of the key.
void	setKey(K key) Sets the key.

Method Detail

setKey

void setKey(K key)

Sets the key. This should only be called by the map implementation, since the key of an entry already in the map must be immutable.

Parameters:

key - the key.

getHash

int getHash()

Returns the hash code of the key. Only the map implementation would really care.

setHash

void setHash(int hash)

Sets the hash code of the key. This should only be called by the map implementation, since the hash code of the key of an entry already in the map must be immutable.

Parameters:

hash - the hash.
