The java.util.IdentityHashMap.entrySet() method in Java is used to create a set out of the same elements contained in the map. It basically returns a set view of the identity hash map or we can create a new set and store the map elements into them.
Syntax:
Identity_HashMap.entrySet()
Parameters: The method does not take any parameter.
Return Value: The method returns a set having same elements as the map.
Below programs illustrate the java.util.IdentityHashMap.entrySet() Method:
Program 1: Mapping String Values to Integer Keys.
// Java code to illustrate the entrySet() methodimport java.util.*; public class Identity_Hash_Map_Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating an empty IdentityHashMap IdentityHashMap<Integer, String> identity_hash = new IdentityHashMap<Integer, String>(); // Mapping string values to int keys identity_hash.put(10, "Geeks"); identity_hash.put(15, "4"); identity_hash.put(20, "Geeks"); identity_hash.put(25, "Welcomes"); identity_hash.put(30, "You"); // Displaying the IdentityHashMap System.out.println("Initial Mappings are: " + identity_hash); // Using entrySet() to get the set view System.out.println("The set is: " + identity_hash.entrySet()); }} |
Output:
Initial Mappings are: {10=Geeks, 30=You, 20=Geeks, 25=Welcomes, 15=4}
The set is: [10=Geeks, 30=You, 20=Geeks, 25=Welcomes, 15=4]
Program 2: Mapping Integer Values to String Keys.
// Java code to illustrate the entrySet() methodimport java.util.*; public class Identity_Hash_Map_Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { // Creating an empty IdentityHashMap IdentityHashMap<String, Integer> identity_hash = new IdentityHashMap<String, Integer>(); // Mapping int values to string keys identity_hash.put("Geeks", 10); identity_hash.put("4", 15); identity_hash.put("Geeks", 20); identity_hash.put("Welcomes", 25); identity_hash.put("You", 30); // Displaying the IdentityHashMap System.out.println("Initial Mappings are: " + identity_hash); // Using entrySet() to get the set view System.out.println("The set is: " + identity_hash.entrySet()); }} |
Output:
Initial Mappings are: {Geeks=20, Welcomes=25, You=30, 4=15}
The set is: [Geeks=20, Welcomes=25, You=30, 4=15]
Note: The same operation can be performed with any type of Mappings with variation and combination of different data types.
