Class OtpErlangMap

    java.lang.Object
      com.ericsson.otp.erlang.OtpErlangObject

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

    public class OtpErlangMap

extends OtpErlangObject

Provides a Java representation of Erlang maps. Maps are created from one or more arbitrary Erlang terms.

The arity of the map is the number of elements it contains. The keys and values can be retrieved as arrays and the value for a key can be queried.

Constructor Detail

### OtpErlangMap

    public OtpErlangMap()

  Create an empty map.

### OtpErlangMap

    public OtpErlangMap(OtpErlangObject[] keys,
                        OtpErlangObject[] values)

  Create a map from an array of keys and an array of values.

  Parameters:
    `keys` - the array of terms to create the map keys from.
    `values` - the array of terms to create the map values from.
  Throws:
    `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if any array is empty (null) or contains null elements.

### OtpErlangMap

    public OtpErlangMap(OtpErlangObject[] keys,
                        int kstart,
                        int kcount,
                        OtpErlangObject[] values,
                        int vstart,
                        int vcount)

  Create a map from an array of terms.

  Parameters:
    `keys` - the array of terms to create the map from.
    `kstart` - the offset of the first key to insert.
    `kcount` - the number of keys to insert.
    `values` - the array of values to create the map from.
    `vstart` - the offset of the first value to insert.
    `vcount` - the number of values to insert.
  Throws:
    `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if any array is empty (null) or contains null elements.
    `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if kcount and vcount differ.

### OtpErlangMap

    public OtpErlangMap(OtpInputStream buf)
                 throws OtpErlangDecodeException

  Create a map from a stream containing a map encoded in Erlang external format.

  Parameters:
    `buf` - the stream containing the encoded map.
  Throws:
    `OtpErlangDecodeException` - if the buffer does not contain a valid external representation of an Erlang map.

Method Detail

### arity

    public int arity()

  Get the arity of the map.

  Returns:
    the number of elements contained in the map.

### put

    public OtpErlangObject put(OtpErlangObject key,
                               OtpErlangObject value)

  Put value corresponding to key into the map. For detailed behavior description see `Map.put(Object, Object)`.

  Parameters:
    `key` - key to associate value with
    `value` - value to associate with key
  Returns:
    previous value associated with key or null

### remove

    public OtpErlangObject remove(OtpErlangObject key)

  removes mapping for the key if present.

  Parameters:
    `key` - key for which mapping is to be remove
  Returns:
    value associated with key or null

### get

    public OtpErlangObject get(OtpErlangObject key)

  Get the specified value from the map.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key of the requested value.
