Class ImmutableSortedMap<K,​V>

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.util.Map<K,​V>, java.util.NavigableMap<K,​V>, java.util.SortedMap<K,​V>

    @GwtCompatible(serializable=true,
                   emulated=true)
    public final class ImmutableSortedMap<K,​V>
    extends ImmutableMap<K,​V>
    implements java.util.NavigableMap<K,​V>
    A NavigableMap whose contents will never change, with many other important properties detailed at ImmutableCollection.

    Warning: as with any sorted collection, you are strongly advised not to use a Comparator or Comparable type whose comparison behavior is inconsistent with equals. That is, a.compareTo(b) or comparator.compare(a, b) should equal zero if and only if a.equals(b). If this advice is not followed, the resulting map will not correctly obey its specification.

    See the Guava User Guide article on immutable collections.

    2.0 (implements NavigableMap since 12.0)

        Returns an immutable map containing the same entries as map, sorted by the natural ordering of the keys.

        Despite the method name, this method attempts to avoid actually copying the data when it is safe to do so. The exact circumstances under which a copy will or will not be performed are undocumented and subject to change.

        This method is not type-safe, as it may be called on a map with keys that are not mutually comparable.

        Throws:
        java.lang.ClassCastException - if the keys in map are not mutually comparable
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if any key or value in map is null
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if any two keys are equal according to their natural ordering

        public static <K,​V> ImmutableSortedMap<K,​V> copyOfSorted​(java.util.SortedMap<K,​? extends V> map)
        Returns an immutable map containing the same entries as the provided sorted map, with the same ordering.

        Despite the method name, this method attempts to avoid actually copying the data when it is safe to do so. The exact circumstances under which a copy will or will not be performed are undocumented and subject to change.

        public static <K,​V> ImmutableSortedMap.Builder<K,​V> orderedBy​(java.util.Comparator<K> comparator)
        Returns a builder that creates immutable sorted maps with an explicit comparator. If the comparator has a more general type than the map's keys, such as creating a SortedMap<Integer, String> with a Comparator<Number>, use the ImmutableSortedMap.Builder constructor instead.
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if comparator is null
      • reverseOrder

        This method returns a ImmutableSortedMap, consisting of the entries whose keys are less than toKey.

        The SortedMap.headMap(K) documentation states that a submap of a submap throws an IllegalArgumentException if passed a toKey greater than an earlier toKey. However, this method doesn't throw an exception in that situation, but instead keeps the original toKey.

        This method returns a ImmutableSortedMap, consisting of the entries whose keys are less than (or equal to, if inclusive) toKey.

        The SortedMap.headMap(K) documentation states that a submap of a submap throws an IllegalArgumentException if passed a toKey greater than an earlier toKey. However, this method doesn't throw an exception in that situation, but instead keeps the original toKey.

        This method returns a ImmutableSortedMap, consisting of the entries whose keys ranges from fromKey, inclusive, to toKey, exclusive.

        The SortedMap.subMap(K, K) documentation states that a submap of a submap throws an IllegalArgumentException if passed a fromKey less than an earlier fromKey. However, this method doesn't throw an exception in that situation, but instead keeps the original fromKey. Similarly, this method keeps the original toKey, instead of throwing an exception, if passed a toKey greater than an earlier toKey.

        This method returns a ImmutableSortedMap, consisting of the entries whose keys ranges from fromKey to toKey, inclusive or exclusive as indicated by the boolean flags.

        The SortedMap.subMap(K, K) documentation states that a submap of a submap throws an IllegalArgumentException if passed a fromKey less than an earlier fromKey.
