I basically need a slightly modified version of a HashMap
where whenever a value is read or written it needs to be converted. So far I have tried the following:
public class MyMap implements Map<String, Object> {
private HashMap<String, MyType> map;
public Object get(Object key) {
return map.get(key).getValue();
}
public Object put(String key, Object value) {
return map.put(key, MyType.wrap(value)).getValue();
}
... all other methods of the Map interface are handled by map
}
I was hoping that was all I needed to do, but I am struggling with those two methods:
Set<Entry<String,Object>> entrySet()
Collection<Object> values()
Those I can't just forward to map as the values need to be converted one by one. Of course I could basically copy the implementation from HashMap and modify it to fit my needs, but that seemed to be rather ugly solution and I before I do that I wanted to make sure I am not missing a much nicer solution.
Is there any better way?
you can wrap the hashmap in a class and expose method on that class to add or remove.
like this
Class MyHashmap {
private Map map = new HashMap();
//methods for add/remove to wrap and put in HashMap
public void add(String ,Object) {
map.put(key, MyType.wrap(value)).getValue();
}
//same way you can add method for remove.
Take a look at Apache Commons TransformedMap and see if it fits your needs.
What you're doing is per se quite ugly, so I wouldn't worry to death about a slightly ugly implementation. Either do what you're suggesting, or else make the get/put methods put the converted values in the map, and then the other methods are just simple wrappers.
