从哈希图中删除元素时出现 java.util.ConcurrentModificationException

Question

I am learning about HashMap class and wrote this simple program. this code works good for adding elements to the hashmap and while removing elements from the hashmap , I am encountering java.util.ConcurrentModificationException for example here is a copy of my terminal,

[ravi@doom test]$ java TestHashMap

Answer 1

Your for-loop gets the map.entrySet and uses the iterator on it to work through the map entries (this version of the for-loop requires an Iterable, it gets the iterator from the Iterable). When you are using an iterator on a map, but remove things from the map without using that iterator, you get the ConcurrentModificationException. That is the map telling the iterator that it's out of date.

You can write a for loop using the iterator explicitly, like this:

for (Iterator<Map.Entry<String, Integer> it = map.entrySet().iterator();
it.hasNext();) {

and use the iterator's remove method when you need to delete an entry.

Answer 2

You are calling remove while you're iterating over the Map . This line, the enhanced for loop, runs an Iterator implicitly:

for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : map.entrySet() )

When an Iterator detects that its collection is modified, it throws a ConcurrentModificationException . However, you can call remove() on the Iterator itself without that exception being thrown. Use an Iterator explicitly:

Iterator<Map.Entry<String, Integer>> itr = map.entrySet().iterator();
while(itr.hasNext())
{
   Map.Entry<String, Integer> entry = itr.next();
   if(entry.getValue().intValue() == 2)
   {
      System.out.println("Key : "+entry.getKey()+" Removed.");
      itr.remove();  // Call Iterator's remove method.
   }
}

Answer 3

You cannot remove an element from a map which you are currently iterating over. You could define an iterator, or you could make a few simple modifications to your code within the block for case 3.

case 3:
    System.out.print("Enter Value to remove : ");
    value = input.nextInt();
    if(map.containsValue(new Integer(value)))
    {
        Map.Entry<String,Integer> foo = null;
        for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : map.entrySet() )
            if(entry.getValue().intValue() == value)
                foo = entry;

        System.out.println("Key : "+foo.getKey()+" Removed.");
        map.remove(foo.getKey());
    }
    break;

Answer 4

Just Use Iterator class to remove the Iterating Element as

for (Iterator<Map.Entry<String, Integer> it = map.entrySet().iterator();
while(it.hasNext()) {
  Map.Entry<String, Integer> e= itr.next();
  key = e.getKey();
  Value = e.getValue();

  //Your Other Code Here

   it.remove();                    //It removes the current Itertaion from Map


}

Answer 5

可以使用Collections类的 removeIf。

map.keySet().removeIf(key -> key.equals("someThing"));
