protected ForwardingMultimap()
```
    Constructor for use by subclasses.
- Method Detail
  - delegate
```
protected abstract Multimap<K,V> delegate()
```
    Description copied from class: ForwardingObject
    
    Returns the backing delegate instance that methods are forwarded to. Abstract subclasses generally override this method with an abstract method that has a more specific return type, such as ForwardingSet.delegate(). Concrete subclasses override this method to supply the instance being decorated.
    
    Specified by:
    
    delegate in class ForwardingObject
  - asMap
```
public java.util.Map<K,java.util.Collection<V>> asMap()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns a map view that associates each key with the corresponding values in the multimap. Changes to the returned map, such as element removal, will update the underlying multimap. The map does not support setValue() on its entries, put, or putAll.
    When passed a key that is present in the map, asMap().get(Object) has the same behavior as Multimap.get(K), returning a live collection. When passed a key that is not present, however, asMap().get(Object) returns null instead of an empty collection.
    
    Specified by:
    
    asMap in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    a map view from a key to its collection of values
  - clear
```
public void clear()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Removes all key-value pairs from the multimap.
    
    Specified by:
    
    clear in interface Multimap<K,V>

public java.util.Collection<java.util.Map.Entry<K,V>> entries()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns a collection of all key-value pairs. Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa. The entries collection does not support the add or addAll operations.

    Returns:
    collection of map entries consisting of key-value pairs
  - get
```
public java.util.Collection<V> get(@Nullable
                          K key)
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns a collection view containing the values associated with key in this multimap, if any. Note that even when (containsKey(key) is false, get(key) still returns an empty collection, not null.
    Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.
    
    Specified by:
    
    get in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    key - key to search for in multimap

  - isEmpty
```
public boolean isEmpty()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns true if the multimap contains no key-value pairs.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isEmpty in interface Multimap<K,V>
  - keys
```
public Multiset<K> keys()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns a collection, which may contain duplicates, of all keys. The number of times of key appears in the returned multiset equals the number of mappings the key has in the multimap. Changes to the returned multiset will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.
    
    Specified by:
    
    keys in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    a multiset with keys corresponding to the distinct keys of the multimap and frequencies corresponding to the number of values that each key maps to
  - keySet
```
public java.util.Set<K> keySet()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns the set of all keys, each appearing once in the returned set. Changes to the returned set will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.
    
    Specified by:
    
    keySet in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    the collection of distinct keys
  - put
```
public boolean put(K key,
          V value)
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Stores a key-value pair in the multimap.
    Some multimap implementations allow duplicate key-value pairs, in which case put always adds a new key-value pair and increases the multimap size by 1. Other implementations prohibit duplicates, and storing a key-value pair that's already in the multimap has no effect.
    
    Specified by:
    
    put in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    key - key to store in the multimap
    value - value to store in the multimap
    
    Returns:
    true if the method increased the size of the multimap, or false if the multimap already contained the key-value pair and doesn't allow duplicates
  - putAll
```
public boolean putAll(K key,
             java.lang.Iterable<? extends V> values)
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Stores a collection of values with the same key.
    
    Specified by:
    
    putAll in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    key - key to store in the multimap
    values - values to store in the multimap
    
    Returns:
    true if the multimap changed
  - putAll
```
public boolean putAll(Multimap<? extends K,? extends V> multimap)
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Copies all of another multimap's key-value pairs into this multimap. The order in which the mappings are added is determined by multimap.entries().
    
    Specified by:
    
    putAll in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    multimap - mappings to store in this multimap
    
    Returns:
    true if the multimap changed
  - remove

public boolean remove(@Nullable
             java.lang.Object key,
             @Nullable
             java.lang.Object value)
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap

    Parameters:
    key - key of entries to remove from the multimap
    
    Returns:
    the collection of removed values, or an empty collection if no values were associated with the provided key. The collection may be modifiable, but updating it will have no effect on the multimap.
  - replaceValues
```
public java.util.Collection<V> replaceValues(K key,
                                    java.lang.Iterable<? extends V> values)

    replaceValues in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Parameters:
    key - key to store in the multimap
    values - values to store in the multimap
    
    Returns:
    the collection of replaced values, or an empty collection if no values were previously associated with the key. The collection may be modifiable, but updating it will have no effect on the multimap.

public java.util.Collection<V> values()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns a collection of all values in the multimap. Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.
    
    Specified by:
    
    values in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Returns:
    collection of values, which may include the same value multiple times if it occurs in multiple mappings
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(@Nullable
             java.lang.Object object)
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Compares the specified object with this multimap for equality. Two multimaps are equal when their map views, as returned by Multimap.asMap(), are also equal.
    In general, two multimaps with identical key-value mappings may or may not be equal, depending on the implementation. For example, two SetMultimap instances with the same key-value mappings are equal, but equality of two ListMultimap instances depends on the ordering of the values for each key.
    A non-empty SetMultimap cannot be equal to a non-empty ListMultimap, since their Multimap.asMap() views contain unequal collections as values. However, any two empty multimaps are equal, because they both have empty Multimap.asMap() views.
    
    Specified by:
    
    equals in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class java.lang.Object
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Description copied from interface: Multimap
    
    Returns the hash code for this multimap.
    The hash code of a multimap is defined as the hash code of the map view, as returned by Multimap.asMap().
    
    Specified by:
    
    hashCode in interface Multimap<K,V>
    
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class java.lang.Object
