procesing HashMap

Say you want String 'X':


String X = (String)map.get("X");

Hi jaipur07

you simply do Object o = hashmap.get("key"); and this should give you the object that is identified by the key "key"

Cheers

If you have declared HashMap as

Map map = new HashMap();
map.put("Name", "ABC"); // Puts Name to hashmap
String value = (String) map.get("Name"); //Returns the value of Name

no no i don't want value based on a key...i want to get all key value pairs from hashmap

Iterator iter = HashMap.keySet().iterator();
while(iter.hasNext()) {
    System.out.println(iter.next());
}

Iterator iter = HashMap.keySet().iterator();
while(iter.hasNext()) {
    String s = iter.next();
    System.out.println(s);
    System.out.println(HashMap.get(s));
}

:)

Hi jaipur07,

You can get keys and values using entrySet() :

Iterator it=hashmap.entrySet().iterator();
while (it.hasNext())
{
     Map.Entry entry=(Map.Entry)it.next();
      ...  entry.getKey()         // is the key
      ...  entry.getValue()      // is the value associated to the key
}

thanks!!
you guys are awsome...i wish i could award 10000000 points

jaipur07, please try to be more precise in your questions - it will save time.

For getting the pairs, Webstorm's approach is preferable
