Class DataMap<K>

  • Type Parameters:
    K - Type of keys in this map.

    public final class DataMap<K>
    extends Object
    An opaque, strongly typed heterogeneous data container. Data maps can be set to accept only a certain type of key, with the type parameter. The key can itself constrain the type of values, using its own type parameter T.
