Class ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,​V>

java.lang.Object
java.util.AbstractMap<K,​V>
java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,​V>
Type Parameters:
K - the type of keys maintained by this map
V - the type of mapped values
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, ConcurrentMap<K,​V>, ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,​V>, Map<K,​V>, NavigableMap<K,​V>, SortedMap<K,​V>
public class ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,​V>
extends AbstractMap<K,​V>
implements ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,​V>, Cloneable, Serializable
A scalable concurrent ConcurrentNavigableMap implementation. The map is sorted according to the natural ordering of its keys, or by a Comparator provided at map creation time, depending on which constructor is used.

This class implements a concurrent variant of SkipLists providing expected average log(n) time cost for the containsKey, get, put and remove operations and their variants. Insertion, removal, update, and access operations safely execute concurrently by multiple threads.

Iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

Ascending key ordered views and their iterators are faster than descending ones.

All Map.Entry pairs returned by methods in this class and its views represent snapshots of mappings at the time they were produced. They do not support the Entry.setValue method. (Note however that it is possible to change mappings in the associated map using put, putIfAbsent, or replace, depending on exactly which effect you need.)

Beware that bulk operations putAll, equals, toArray, containsValue, and clear are not guaranteed to be performed atomically. For example, an iterator operating concurrently with a putAll operation might view only some of the added elements.

This class and its views and iterators implement all of the optional methods of the Map and Iterator interfaces. Like most other concurrent collections, this class does not permit the use of null keys or values because some null return values cannot be reliably distinguished from the absence of elements.

This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

    • keySet

      public NavigableSet<K> keySet()
      Returns a NavigableSet view of the keys contained in this map.

      The set's iterator returns the keys in ascending order. The set's spliterator additionally reports Spliterator.CONCURRENT, Spliterator.NONNULL, Spliterator.SORTED and Spliterator.ORDERED, with an encounter order that is ascending key order.

      The spliterator's comparator is null if the map's comparator is null. Otherwise, the spliterator's comparator is the same as or imposes the same total ordering as the map's comparator.

      The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

      The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

      This method is equivalent to method navigableKeySet.

      Specified by:
      keySet in interface ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,​V>

      Returns:
      a navigable set view of the keys in this map

    • values

      public Collection<V> values()
      Returns a Collection view of the values contained in this map.

      The collection's iterator returns the values in ascending order of the corresponding keys. The collections's spliterator additionally reports Spliterator.CONCURRENT, Spliterator.NONNULL and Spliterator.ORDERED, with an encounter order that is ascending order of the corresponding keys.

      The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Collection.remove, removeAll, retainAll and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

      The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

      Specified by:
      values in interface Map<K,​V>
      Specified by:
      values in interface SortedMap<K,​V>
      Overrides:

      Returns:
      a collection view of the values contained in this map

    • entrySet

      public Set<Map.Entry<K,​V>> entrySet()
      Returns a Set view of the mappings contained in this map.

      The set's iterator returns the entries in ascending key order. The set's spliterator additionally reports Spliterator.CONCURRENT, Spliterator.NONNULL, Spliterator.SORTED and Spliterator.ORDERED, with an encounter order that is ascending key order.

      The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

      The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

      The Map.Entry elements traversed by the iterator or spliterator do not support the setValue operation.

      Specified by:
      entrySet in interface Map<K,​V>
      Specified by:
      entrySet in interface SortedMap<K,​V>
      Returns:
      a set view of the mappings contained in this map, sorted in ascending key order

    • equals

      public boolean equals​(Object o)
      Compares the specified object with this map for equality. Returns true if the given object is also a map and the two maps represent the same mappings. More formally, two maps m1 and m2 represent the same mappings if m1.entrySet().equals(m2.entrySet()). This operation may return misleading results if either map is concurrently modified during execution of this method.
      Specified by:
      equals in interface Map<K,​V>
      Overrides:
      equals in class AbstractMap<K,​V>
      Parameters:

    • putIfAbsent

      public V putIfAbsent​(K key, V value)
      If the specified key is not already associated with a value, associates it with the given value. This is equivalent to, for this map: 
       
 if (!map.containsKey(key))
   return map.put(key, value);
 else
   return map.get(key);
      except that the action is performed atomically.

      NullPointerException - if the specified key or value is null

    • remove

      public boolean remove​(Object key, Object value)
      Removes the entry for a key only if currently mapped to a given value. This is equivalent to, for this map: 
       
 if (map.containsKey(key)
     && Objects.equals(map.get(key), value)) {
   map.remove(key);
   return true;

     && Objects.equals(map.get(key), oldValue)) {
   map.put(key, newValue);
   return true;

    • replace

      public V replace​(K key, V value)
      Replaces the entry for a key only if currently mapped to some value. This is equivalent to, for this map: 
       
 if (map.containsKey(key))
   return map.put(key, value);
 else
   return null;

      public ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,​V> subMap​(K fromKey, boolean fromInclusive, K toKey, boolean toInclusive)
      Description copied from interface: NavigableMap
      Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys range from fromKey to toKey. If fromKey and toKey are equal, the returned map is empty unless fromInclusive and toInclusive are both true. The returned map is backed by this map, so changes in the returned map are reflected in this map, and vice-versa. The returned map supports all optional map operations that this map supports.

      The returned map will throw an IllegalArgumentException on an attempt to insert a key outside of its range, or to construct a submap either of whose endpoints lie outside its range.

      Specified by:
      subMap in interface ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,​V>
      Specified by:
      subMap in interface NavigableMap<K,​V>
      Parameters:
      fromKey - low endpoint of the keys in the returned map
      fromInclusive - true if the low endpoint is to be included in the returned view

      toInclusive - true if the high endpoint is to be included in the returned view
      Returns:
      a view of the portion of this map whose keys range from fromKey to toKey
      Throws:
      ClassCastException - if fromKey and toKey cannot be compared to one another using this map's comparator (or, if the map has no comparator, using natural ordering). Implementations may, but are not required to, throw this exception if fromKey or toKey cannot be compared to keys currently in the map.
      NullPointerException - if fromKey or toKey is null
      IllegalArgumentException - if fromKey is greater than toKey; or if this map itself has a restricted range, and fromKey or toKey lies outside the bounds of the range
