This class implements the Map
interface with a hash table, using reference-equality in place of object-equality when comparing keys (and values). In other words, in an IdentityHashMap
, two keys k1
and k2
are considered equal if and only if (k1==k2)
. (In normal Map
implementations (like HashMap
) two keys k1
and k2
are considered equal if and only if (k1==null ? k2==null : k1.equals(k2))
.)
This class is not a general-purpose Map
implementation! While this class implements the Map
interface, it intentionally violates Map's
general contract, which mandates the use of the equals
method when comparing objects. This class is designed for use only in the rare cases wherein reference-equality semantics are required.
A typical use of this class is topology-preserving object graph transformations, such as serialization or deep-copying. To perform such a transformation, a program must maintain a "node table" that keeps track of all the object references that have already been processed. The node table must not equate distinct objects even if they happen to be equal. Another typical use of this class is to maintain proxy objects. For example, a debugging facility might wish to maintain a proxy object for each object in the program being debugged.
This class provides all of the optional map operations, and permits null
values and the null
key. This class makes no guarantees as to the order of the map; in particular, it does not guarantee that the order will remain constant over time.
This class provides constant-time performance for the basic operations (get
and put
), assuming the system identity hash function (System#identityHashCode(Object)
) disperses elements properly among the buckets.
This class has one tuning parameter (which affects performance but not semantics): expected maximum size. This parameter is the maximum number of key-value mappings that the map is expected to hold. Internally, this parameter is used to determine the number of buckets initially comprising the hash table. The precise relationship between the expected maximum size and the number of buckets is unspecified.
If the size of the map (the number of key-value mappings) sufficiently exceeds the expected maximum size, the number of buckets is increased. Increasing the number of buckets ("rehashing") may be fairly expensive, so it pays to create identity hash maps with a sufficiently large expected maximum size. On the other hand, iteration over collection views requires time proportional to the number of buckets in the hash table, so it pays not to set the expected maximum size too high if you are especially concerned with iteration performance or memory usage.
Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access an identity hash map concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies the map structurally, it must be synchronized externally. (A structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more mappings; merely changing the value associated with a key that an instance already contains is not a structural modification.) This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the map. If no such object exists, the map should be "wrapped" using the Collections.synchronizedMap
method. This is best done at creation time, to prevent accidental unsynchronized access to the map:
Map m = Collections.synchronizedMap(new IdentityHashMap(...));
The iterators returned by the iterator
method of the collections returned by all of this class's "collection view methods" are fail-fast: if the map is structurally modified at any time after the iterator is created, in any way except through the iterator's own remove
method, the iterator will throw a ConcurrentModificationException
. Thus, in the face of concurrent modification, the iterator fails quickly and cleanly, rather than risking arbitrary, non-deterministic behavior at an undetermined time in the future.
Note that the fail-fast behavior of an iterator cannot be guaranteed as it is, generally speaking, impossible to make any hard guarantees in the presence of unsynchronized concurrent modification. Fail-fast iterators throw ConcurrentModificationException
on a best-effort basis. Therefore, it would be wrong to write a program that depended on this exception for its correctness: fail-fast iterators should be used only to detect bugs.
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

Constructs a new, empty identity hash map with a default expected maximum size (21).
IdentityHashMap
IdentityHashMap(expectedMaxSize: Int)
Constructs a new, empty map with the specified expected maximum size. Putting more than the expected number of key-value mappings into the map may cause the internal data structure to grow, which may be somewhat time-consuming.

Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
if expectedMaxSize is negative |
IdentityHashMap
IdentityHashMap(m: MutableMap<out K, out V>!)
Constructs a new identity hash map containing the keys-value mappings in the specified map.
Parameters | |
---|---|
m |
MutableMap<out K, out V>!: the map whose mappings are to be placed into this map |
Exceptions | |

equals
open fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean
Compares the specified object with this map for equality. Returns true
if the given object is also a map and the two maps represent identical object-reference mappings. More formally, this map is equal to another map m
if and only if this.entrySet().equals(m.entrySet())
.
Owing to the reference-equality-based semantics of this map it is possible that the symmetry and transitivity requirements of the Object.equals
contract may be violated if this map is compared to a normal map. However, the Object.equals
contract is guaranteed to hold among IdentityHashMap
instances.
Parameters | |
---|---|
obj |
the reference object with which to compare. |
o |
object to be compared for equality with this map |
Return | |
---|---|
Boolean |
true if the specified object is equal to this map |

forEach
open fun forEach(action: BiConsumer<in K, in V>): Unit
Parameters | |
---|---|
action |
BiConsumer<in K, in V>: The action to be performed for each entry |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if the specified action is null |
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException |
if an entry is found to be removed during iteration |
get
open fun get(key: K?): V?
Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped, or null
if this map contains no mapping for the key.
More formally, if this map contains a mapping from a key k
to a value v
such that (key == k)
, then this method returns v
; otherwise it returns null
. (There can be at most one such mapping.)
A return value of null
does not necessarily indicate that the map contains no mapping for the key; it's also possible that the map explicitly maps the key to null
. The containsKey
operation may be used to distinguish these two cases.
Parameters | |
---|---|
key |
K?: the key whose associated value is to be returned |
Return | |
---|---|
V? |
the value to which the specified key is mapped, or null if this map contains no mapping for the key |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.ClassCastException |
if the key is of an inappropriate type for this map (optional) |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if the specified key is null and this map does not permit null keys (optional) |

hashCode
open fun hashCode(): Int
Returns the hash code value for this map. The hash code of a map is defined to be the sum of the hash codes of each entry in the map's entrySet()
view. This ensures that m1.equals(m2)
implies that m1.hashCode()==m2.hashCode()
for any two IdentityHashMap
instances m1
and m2
, as required by the general contract of Object#hashCode
.
Owing to the reference-equality-based semantics of the Map.Entry
instances in the set returned by this map's entrySet
method, it is possible that the contractual requirement of Object.hashCode
mentioned in the previous paragraph will be violated if one of the two objects being compared is an IdentityHashMap
instance and the other is a normal map.
Return | |
---|---|
Int |
the hash code value for this map |
isEmpty
open fun isEmpty(): Boolean
Returns true
if this identity hash map contains no key-value mappings.
Return | |
---|---|
Boolean |
true if this identity hash map contains no key-value mappings |
put
open fun put(
key: K,
value: V
): V?
Associates the specified value with the specified key in this identity hash map. If the map previously contained a mapping for the key, the old value is replaced.
Parameters | |
---|---|
key |
K: the key with which the specified value is to be associated |
value |
V: the value to be associated with the specified key |
Return | |
---|---|
V? |
the previous value associated with key , or null if there was no mapping for key . (A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with key .) |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException |
if the put operation is not supported by this map |
java.lang.ClassCastException |
if the class of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if the specified key or value is null and this map does not permit null keys or values |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
if some property of the specified key or value prevents it from being stored in this map |
putAll
open fun putAll(from: Map<out K, V>): Unit
Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to this map. These mappings will replace any mappings that this map had for any of the keys currently in the specified map.
Parameters | |
---|---|
m |
mappings to be stored in this map |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException |
if the putAll operation is not supported by this map |
java.lang.ClassCastException |
if the class of a key or value in the specified map prevents it from being stored in this map |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if the specified map is null |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
if some property of a key or value in the specified map prevents it from being stored in this map |
remove
open fun remove(key: K?): V?
Removes the mapping for this key from this map if present.
Parameters | |
---|---|
key |
K?: key whose mapping is to be removed from the map |
Return | |
---|---|
V? |
the previous value associated with key , or null if there was no mapping for key . (A null return can also indicate that the map previously associated null with key .) |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException |
if the remove operation is not supported by this map |
java.lang.ClassCastException |
if the key is of an inappropriate type for this map (optional) |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if the specified key is null and this map does not permit null keys (optional) |
replaceAll
open fun replaceAll(function: BiFunction<in K, in V, out V>): Unit
Parameters | |
---|---|
function |
BiFunction<in K, in V, out V>: the function to apply to each entry |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException |
if the set operation is not supported by this map's entry set iterator. |
java.lang.ClassCastException |
if a replacement value is of an inappropriate type for this map (optional) |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if function or a replacement value is null, and this map does not permit null keys or values (optional) |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
if some property of a replacement value prevents it from being stored in this map (optional) |
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException |
if an entry is found to be removed during iteration |
Properties
entries
open val entries: MutableSet<MutableEntry<K, V>>
Returns a Set
view of the mappings contained in this map. Each element in the returned set is a reference-equality-based Map.Entry
. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. If the map is modified while an iteration over the set is in progress, the results of the iteration are undefined. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove
, Set.remove
, removeAll
, retainAll
and clear
methods. It does not support the add
or addAll
methods.
Like the backing map, the Map.Entry
objects in the set returned by this method define key and value equality as reference-equality rather than object-equality. This affects the behavior of the equals
and hashCode
methods of these Map.Entry
objects. A reference-equality based Map.Entry e
is equal to an object o
if and only if o
is a Map.Entry
and e.getKey()==o.getKey() && e.getValue()==o.getValue()
. To accommodate these equals semantics, the hashCode
method returns System.identityHashCode(e.getKey()) ^ System.identityHashCode(e.getValue())
.
Owing to the reference-equality-based semantics of the Map.Entry
instances in the set returned by this method, it is possible that the symmetry and transitivity requirements of the Object#equals(Object)
contract may be violated if any of the entries in the set is compared to a normal map entry, or if the set returned by this method is compared to a set of normal map entries (such as would be returned by a call to this method on a normal map). However, the Object.equals
contract is guaranteed to hold among identity-based map entries, and among sets of such entries.
Return | |
---|---|
MutableSet<MutableEntry<K, V>> |
a set view of the identity-mappings contained in this map |
keys
open val keys: MutableSet<K>
Returns an identity-based set view of the keys contained in this map. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. If the map is modified while an iteration over the set is in progress, the results of the iteration are undefined. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove
, Set.remove
, removeAll
, retainAll
, and clear
methods. It does not support the add
or addAll
methods.
While the object returned by this method implements the Set
interface, it does not obey Set's
general contract. Like its backing map, the set returned by this method defines element equality as reference-equality rather than object-equality. This affects the behavior of its contains
, remove
, containsAll
, equals
, and hashCode
methods.
The equals
method of the returned set returns true
only if the specified object is a set containing exactly the same object references as the returned set. The symmetry and transitivity requirements of the Object.equals
contract may be violated if the set returned by this method is compared to a normal set. However, the Object.equals
contract is guaranteed to hold among sets returned by this method.
The hashCode
method of the returned set returns the sum of the identity hashcodes of the elements in the set, rather than the sum of their hashcodes. This is mandated by the change in the semantics of the equals
method, in order to enforce the general contract of the Object.hashCode
method among sets returned by this method.
Return | |
---|---|
MutableSet<K> |
an identity-based set view of the keys contained in this map |
size
open val size: Int
Returns the number of key-value mappings in this identity hash map.
Return | |
---|---|
Int |
the number of key-value mappings in this map |
values
open val values: MutableCollection<V>
Returns a Collection
view of the values contained in this map. The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. If the map is modified while an iteration over the collection is in progress, the results of the iteration are undefined. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove
, Collection.remove
, removeAll
, retainAll
and clear
methods. It does not support the add
or addAll
methods.
While the object returned by this method implements the Collection
interface, it does not obey Collection's
general contract. Like its backing map, the collection returned by this method defines element equality as reference-equality rather than object-equality. This affects the behavior of its contains
, remove
and containsAll
methods.
Return | |
---|---|
MutableCollection<V> |
a collection view of the values contained in this map |
