java.util.HashMapClass

The HashMap is the most commonly used implementation of the Map interface. It provides a basic key−valuemap where the elements are unordered. If you need to maintain map keys in an ordered fashion, that's wherethe TreeMap comes in handy.

The default initial capacity of the internal data structure is16 and the default load factor is 0.75. Unlike a Hashtable, both the key and the value for a HashMap can be null. If the key happens to already be inthe map, the old value is replaced and returned. Otherwise, null is returned. The map uses the key's hash codeto determine where to store the key−value pair internally.

Similar to the other collection classes, the toString() returned value will be a comma−delimited list of the collectionelements within braces ({}). For the HashMap, each key−value element is displayed separated by an equalsign. The listed order does not reflect the order in which the elements are added to the HashMap. Instead, the orderreflects the range conversion of the hash codes generated from the keys. Removing all elements from a map does not return the space used by the internal data structure. Thecapacity of the structure remains the same. Only the entries of the structure are nulled out.

HashMap class has following constructors.

HashMap()

Constructs an empty HashMap with the default initial capacity (16) and the default load factor (0.75).

HashMap(int initialCapacity)

Constructs an empty HashMap with the specified initial capacity and the default load factor (0.75).

HashMap(int initialCapacity, float loadFactor)

Constructs an empty HashMap with the specified initial capacity and load factor.

HashMap(Map<? extends K,? extends V> m)

Constructs a new HashMap with the same mappings as the specified Map.

The following example shows how to save HashMap into file.

/* java.util.HashMap class Example 5 */

/* Save with file name HashMapExample5.java */

import java.util.HashMap;

import java.io.FileOutputStream;

import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;

public class HashMapExample5

{

public static void main(String args[])

{

try

{

//java.util.HashMap DECLARATION

HashMap<String,Integer> h;

//java.util.HashMap OBJECT CREATION

//USING DEFAULT CONSTRUCTOR

h = new HashMap<String,Integer>();

//ADD AN ELEMENTS

h.put("ONE", new Integer(1));

h.put("TWO", new Integer(2));

h.put("THREE", new Integer(3));

//FileOutputStream CREATION

FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("hashmap.set");

//ObjectOutputStream CREATION

ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);

//WRITE Set OBJECT TO ObjectOutputStream

oos.writeObject(h);

//CLOSE THE ObjectOutputStream

oos.close();

System.out.println("HashMap Saved into File Sucessfully");

}

catch(Exception e)

{

System.out.println("Error Occurred : " + e.getMessage());

}

The following example shows how to retrieve HashMap from file.

/* java.util.HashMap class Example 6 */

/* Save with file name HashMapExample6.java */

import java.util.HashMap;

import java.io.FileInputStream;

import java.io.ObjectInputStream;

public class HashMapExample6

{

public static void main(String args[])

{

try

{

//java.util.HashMap DECLARATION

HashMap<String,Integer> h;

//FileInputStream CREATION

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("hashmap.set");

//ObjectInputStream CREATION

ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(fis);

//READ HashMap OBJECT FROM ObjectInputStream

h = (HashMap) ois.readObject();

ois.close();

System.out.println(h);

}

catch(Exception e)

{

System.out.println("Error Occurred : " + e.getMessage());

}
