HashMap<K, V> class

A hash-table based implementation of Map.

A hash-table based implementation of Map.

The keys of a HashMap must have consistent Object.operator== and Object.hashCode implementations. This means that the == operator must define a stable equivalence relation on the keys (reflexive, symmetric, transitive, and consistent over time), and that hashCode must be the same for objects that are considered equal by ==.

The map allows null as a key.

Iterating the map's keys, values or entries (through forEach) may happen in any order. The itearation order only changes when the map is modified. Values are iterated in the same order as their associated keys, so iterating the keys and values in parallel will give matching key and value pairs.

Constructors

HashMap ( {bool equals(K key1, K key2), int hashCode(K key), bool isValidKey(potentialKey)} )
Creates an unordered hash-table based Map.
HashMap.identity ( )
Creates an unordered identity-based map.
HashMap.from ( Map other )
Creates a HashMap that contains all key/value pairs of other.
HashMap.fromIterable ( Iterable iterable, {K key(element), V value(element)} )
Creates a HashMap where the keys and values are computed from the iterable.
HashMap.fromIterables ( Iterable<K> keys, Iterable<V> values )
Creates a HashMap associating the given keys to values.

Instance Methods

containsValue Inherited ( Object value ) → bool
Returns true if this map contains the given value.
remove Inherited ( Object key ) → V
Removes key and its associated value, if present, from the map.
clear Inherited ( ) → void
Removes all pairs from the map.
containsKey Inherited ( Object key ) → bool
Returns true if this map contains the given key.
addAll Inherited ( Map<K,V> other ) → void
Adds all key-value pairs of other to this map.
forEach Inherited ( void f(K key, V value) ) → void
Applies f to each key-value pair of the map.
putIfAbsent Inherited ( K key, V ifAbsent() ) → V
Look up the value of key, or add a new value if it isn't there.

Operators

operator []= Inherited ( K key, V value ) → void
Associates the key with the given value.
operator [] Inherited ( Object key ) → V
Returns the value for the given key or null if key is not in the map.
