Direct Known Subclasses:

ForwardingSortedSetMultimap

@GwtCompatible
public abstract class ForwardingSetMultimap<K,V>
extends ForwardingMultimap<K,V>
implements SetMultimap<K,V>

A set multimap which forwards all its method calls to another set multimap. Subclasses should override one or more methods to modify the behavior of the backing multimap as desired per the decorator pattern.

public ForwardingSetMultimap()

Method Detail

delegate

protected abstract SetMultimap<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 ForwardingMultimap<K,V>

entries

public java.util.Set<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.

Specified by:

entries in interface Multimap<K,V>

Specified by:

entries in interface SetMultimap<K,V>

Overrides:

entries in class ForwardingMultimap<K,V>

Returns:

collection of map entries consisting of key-value pairs

get

public java.util.Set<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>

Specified by:

get in interface SetMultimap<K,V>

Overrides:

get in class ForwardingMultimap<K,V>

Parameters:

key - key to search for in multimap

Returns:

a view collection containing the zero or more values that the key maps to

removeAll

public java.util.Set<V> removeAll(@Nullable
                         java.lang.Object key)

Description copied from interface: Multimap

Removes all values associated with a given key.

Specified by:

removeAll in interface Multimap<K,V>

Specified by:

removeAll in interface SetMultimap<K,V>

Overrides:

removeAll in class ForwardingMultimap<K,V>

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.Set<V> replaceValues(K key,
                             java.lang.Iterable<? extends V> values)

Description copied from interface: Multimap

Stores a collection of values with the same key, replacing any existing values for that key.

Specified by:

replaceValues in interface Multimap<K,V>

Specified by:

replaceValues in interface SetMultimap<K,V>

Overrides:

replaceValues in class ForwardingMultimap<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.
