public interface ConcurrentMap<K,V> extends Map<K,V>
AMap
providing thread safety and atomicity guarantees.Memory consistency effects: As with other concurrent collections, actions in a thread prior to placing an object into a
ConcurrentMap
as a key or value happen-before actions subsequent to the access or removal of that object from theConcurrentMap
in another thread.This interface is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

Method Detail
getOrDefault
default V getOrDefault(Object key, V defaultValue)
Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped, ordefaultValue
if this map contains no mapping for the key.- Specified by:
-
getOrDefault
in interfaceMap<K,V>
- Implementation Note:
-
This implementation assumes that the ConcurrentMap cannot contain null values and
get()
returning null unambiguously means the key is absent. Implementations which support null values must override this default implementation. - Parameters:
-
key
- the key whose associated value is to be returned -
defaultValue
- the default mapping of the key - Returns:
-
the value to which the specified key is mapped, or
defaultValue
if this map contains no mapping for the key - Throws:
-
ClassCastException
- if the key is of an inappropriate type for this map (optional) -
NullPointerException
- if the specified key is null and this map does not permit null keys (optional) - Since:
- 1.8
forEach
default void forEach(BiConsumer<? super K,? super V> action)
Performs the given action for each entry in this map until all entries have been processed or the action throws an exception. Unless otherwise specified by the implementing class, actions are performed in the order of entry set iteration (if an iteration order is specified.) Exceptions thrown by the action are relayed to the caller.- Specified by:
-
forEach
in interfaceMap<K,V>
- Implementation Requirements:
-
The default implementation is equivalent to, for this
map
:for ((Map.Entry<K, V> entry : map.entrySet()) action.accept(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
- Implementation Note:
-
The default implementation assumes that
IllegalStateException
thrown bygetKey()
orgetValue()
indicates that the entry has been removed and cannot be processed. Operation continues for subsequent entries. - Parameters:
-
action
- The action to be performed for each entry - Throws:
-
NullPointerException
- if the specified action is null - Since:
- 1.8
putIfAbsent
V putIfAbsent(K key, V value)
If the specified key is not already associated with a value, associate it with the given value. This is equivalent toif (!map.containsKey(key)) return map.put(key, value); else return map.get(key);
- Specified by:
-
putIfAbsent
in interfaceMap<K,V>

key
- key with which the specified value is to be associated -
value
- value to be associated with the specified key - Returns:
-
the previous value associated with the specified key, or

if there was no mapping for the key. (Anull
return can also indicate that the map previously associatednull
with the key, if the implementation supports null values.) - Throws:
-
UnsupportedOperationException
- if theput
operation is not supported by this map -
ClassCastException
- if the class of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map -

computeIfAbsent
default V computeIfAbsent(K key, Function<? super K,? extends V> mappingFunction)
If the specified key is not already associated with a value (or is mapped tonull
), attempts to compute its value using the given mapping function and enters it into this map unlessnull
.If the function returns
null
no mapping is recorded. If the function itself throws an (unchecked) exception, the exception is rethrown, and no mapping is recorded. The most common usage is to construct a new object serving as an initial mapped value or memoized result, as in:map.computeIfAbsent(key, k -> new Value(f(k)));
Or to implement a multi-value map,
Map<K,Collection<V>>
, supporting multiple values per key:map.computeIfAbsent(key, k -> new HashSet<V>()).add(v);
- Specified by:
-
computeIfAbsent
in interfaceMap<K,V>
- Implementation Requirements:
-
The default implementation is equivalent to the following steps for this
map
, then returning the current value ornull
if now absent:if (map.get(key) == null) { V newValue = mappingFunction.apply(key); if (newValue != null) return map.putIfAbsent(key, newValue); }
This implementation assumes that the ConcurrentMap cannot contain null values and
get()
returning null unambiguously means the key is absent. Implementations which support null values must override this default implementation. - Parameters:
-
key
- key with which the specified value is to be associated -
mappingFunction
- the function to compute a value - Returns:
- the current (existing or computed) value associated with the specified key, or null if the computed value is null
- Throws:
-
UnsupportedOperationException
- if theput
operation is not supported by this map (optional) -
ClassCastException
- if the class of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map (optional) -
NullPointerException
- if the specified key is null and this map does not support null keys, or the mappingFunction is null - Since:
- 1.8
computeIfPresent
default V computeIfPresent(K key, BiFunction<? super K,? super V,? extends V> remappingFunction)
If the value for the specified key is present and non-null, attempts to compute a new mapping given the key and its current mapped value.If the function returns
null
, the mapping is removed. If the function itself throws an (unchecked) exception, the exception is rethrown, and the current mapping is left unchanged.- Specified by:
-
computeIfPresent
in interfaceMap<K,V>
- Implementation Requirements:
-
The default implementation is equivalent to performing the following steps for this
map
, then returning the current value ornull
if now absent. :if (map.get(key) != null) { V oldValue = map.get(key); V newValue = remappingFunction.apply(key, oldValue); if (newValue != null) map.replace(key, oldValue, newValue); else map.remove(key, oldValue); }
This implementation assumes that the ConcurrentMap cannot contain null values and
get()
returning null unambiguously means the key is absent. Implementations which support null values must override this default implementation. - Parameters:
-
key
- key with which the specified value is to be associated -
remappingFunction
- the function to compute a value - Returns:
- the new value associated with the specified key, or null if none
- Throws:
-
UnsupportedOperationException
- if theput
operation is not supported by this map (optional) -
ClassCastException
- if the class of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map (optional) -
NullPointerException
- if the specified key is null and this map does not support null keys, or the remappingFunction is null - Since:
- 1.8
compute
default V compute(K key, BiFunction<? super K,? super V,? extends V> remappingFunction)
Attempts to compute a mapping for the specified key and its current mapped value (ornull
if there is no current mapping). For example, to either create or append aString
msg to a value mapping:map.compute(key, (k, v) -> (v == null) ? msg : v.concat(msg))
merge()
is often simpler to use for such purposes.)If the function returns
null
, the mapping is removed (or remains absent if initially absent). If the function itself throws an (unchecked) exception, the exception is rethrown, and the current mapping is left unchanged.- Specified by:
-
compute
in interfaceMap<K,V>
- Implementation Requirements:
-
The default implementation is equivalent to performing the following steps for this
map
, then returning the current value ornull
if absent:V oldValue = map.get(key); V newValue = remappingFunction.apply(key, oldValue); if (oldValue != null ) { if (newValue != null) map.replace(key, oldValue, newValue); else map.remove(key, oldValue); } else { if (newValue != null) map.putIfAbsent(key, newValue); else return null; }
This implementation assumes that the ConcurrentMap cannot contain null values and
get()
returning null unambiguously means the key is absent. Implementations which support null values must override this default implementation. - Parameters:
-
key
- key with which the specified value is to be associated -
remappingFunction
- the function to compute a value - Returns:
- the new value associated with the specified key, or null if none
- Throws:
-
UnsupportedOperationException
- if theput
operation is not supported by this map (optional) -
ClassCastException
- if the class of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map (optional) -
NullPointerException
- if the specified key is null and this map does not support null keys, or the remappingFunction is null - Since:
- 1.8
merge
default V merge(K key, V value, BiFunction<? super V,? super V,? extends V> remappingFunction)
If the specified key is not already associated with a value or is associated with null, associates it with the given non-null value. Otherwise, replaces the associated value with the results of the given remapping function, or removes if the result isnull
. This method may be of use when combining multiple mapped values for a key. For example, to either create or append aString msg
to a value mapping:map.merge(key, msg, String::concat)
If the function returns
null
the mapping is removed. If the function itself throws an (unchecked) exception, the exception is rethrown, and the current mapping is left unchanged.- Specified by:
-
merge
in interfaceMap<K,V>
- Implementation Requirements:
-
The default implementation is equivalent to performing the following steps for this
map
, then returning the current value ornull
if absent:V oldValue = map.get(key); V newValue = (oldValue == null) ? value : remappingFunction.apply(oldValue, value); if (newValue == null) map.remove(key); else map.put(key, newValue);
The default implementation may retry these steps when multiple threads attempt updates including potentially calling the remapping function multiple times.
This implementation assumes that the ConcurrentMap cannot contain null values and
get()
returning null unambiguously means the key is absent. Implementations which support null values must override this default implementation. - Parameters:
-
key
- key with which the resulting value is to be associated -
value
- the non-null value to be merged with the existing value associated with the key or, if no existing value or a null value is associated with the key, to be associated with the key -
remappingFunction
- the function to recompute a value if present - Returns:
- the new value associated with the specified key, or null if no value is associated with the key
- Throws:
-
UnsupportedOperationException
- if theput
operation is not supported by this map (optional) -
ClassCastException
- if the class of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map (optional) -
