A hash table supporting full concurrency of retrievals and high expected concurrency for updates. This class obeys the same functional specification as Hashtable, and includes versions of methods corresponding to each method of Hashtable. However, even though all operations are thread-safe, retrieval operations do not entail locking, and there is not any support for locking the entire table in a way that prevents all access. This class is fully interoperable with Hashtable in programs that rely on its thread safety but not on its synchronization details.

Retrieval operations (including get) generally do not block, so may overlap with update operations (including put and remove). Retrievals reflect the results of the most recently completed update operations holding upon their onset. (More formally, an update operation for a given key bears a happens-before relation with any (non-null) retrieval for that key reporting the updated value.) For aggregate operations such as putAll and clear, concurrent retrievals may reflect insertion or removal of only some entries. Similarly, Iterators, Spliterators and Enumerations return elements reflecting the state of the hash table at some point at or since the creation of the iterator/enumeration. They do not throw ConcurrentModificationException. However, iterators are designed to be used by only one thread at a time. Bear in mind that the results of aggregate status methods including size, isEmpty, and containsValue are typically useful only when a map is not undergoing concurrent updates in other threads. Otherwise the results of these methods reflect transient states that may be adequate for monitoring or estimation purposes, but not for program control.

The table is dynamically expanded when there are too many collisions (i.e., keys that have distinct hash codes but fall into the same slot modulo the table size), with the expected average effect of maintaining roughly two bins per mapping (corresponding to a 0.75 load factor threshold for resizing). There may be much variance around this average as mappings are added and removed, but overall, this maintains a commonly accepted time/space tradeoff for hash tables. However, resizing this or any other kind of hash table may be a relatively slow operation. When possible, it is a good idea to provide a size estimate as an optional initialCapacity constructor argument. An additional optional loadFactor constructor argument provides a further means of customizing initial table capacity by specifying the table density to be used in calculating the amount of space to allocate for the given number of elements. Also, for compatibility with previous versions of this class, constructors may optionally specify an expected concurrencyLevel as an additional hint for internal sizing. Note that using many keys with exactly the same hashCode() is a sure way to slow down performance of any hash table. To ameliorate impact, when keys are Comparable, this class may use comparison order among keys to help break ties.

A Set projection of a ConcurrentHashMap may be created (using newKeySet() or newKeySet(int)), or viewed (using keySet(java.lang.Object) when only keys are of interest, and the mapped values are (perhaps transiently) not used or all take the same mapping value.

A ConcurrentHashMap can be used as a scalable frequency map (a form of histogram or multiset) by using LongAdder values and initializing via computeIfAbsent. For example, to add a count to a ConcurrentHashMap<String,LongAdder> freqs, you can use freqs.computeIfAbsent(key, k -> new LongAdder()).increment();

This class and its views and iterators implement all of the optional methods of the Map and Iterator interfaces.

Like Hashtable but unlike HashMap, this class does not allow null to be used as a key or value.

ConcurrentHashMaps support a set of sequential and parallel bulk operations that, unlike most Stream methods, are designed to be safely, and often sensibly, applied even with maps that are being concurrently updated by other threads; for example, when computing a snapshot summary of the values in a shared registry. There are three kinds of operation, each with four forms, accepting functions with keys, values, entries, and (key, value) pairs as arguments and/or return values. Because the elements of a ConcurrentHashMap are not ordered in any particular way, and may be processed in different orders in different parallel executions, the correctness of supplied functions should not depend on any ordering, or on any other objects or values that may transiently change while computation is in progress; and except for forEach actions, should ideally be side-effect-free. Bulk operations on Map.Entry objects do not support method setValue.

  • forEach: Performs a given action on each element. A variant form applies a given transformation on each element before performing the action.
  • search: Returns the first available non-null result of applying a given function on each element; skipping further search when a result is found.
  • reduce: Accumulates each element. The supplied reduction function cannot rely on ordering (more formally, it should be both associative and commutative). There are five variants:
    • Plain reductions. (There is not a form of this method for (key, value) function arguments since there is no corresponding return type.)
    • Mapped reductions that accumulate the results of a given function applied to each element.
    • Reductions to scalar doubles, longs, and ints, using a given basis value.

These bulk operations accept a parallelismThreshold argument. Methods proceed sequentially if the current map size is estimated to be less than the given threshold. Using a value of Long.MAX_VALUE suppresses all parallelism. Using a value of 1 results in maximal parallelism by partitioning into enough subtasks to fully utilize the ForkJoinPool.commonPool() that is used for all parallel computations. Normally, you would initially choose one of these extreme values, and then measure performance of using in-between values that trade off overhead versus throughput.

The concurrency properties of bulk operations follow from those of ConcurrentHashMap: Any non-null result returned from get(key) and related access methods bears a happens-before relation with the associated insertion or update. The result of any bulk operation reflects the composition of these per-element relations (but is not necessarily atomic with respect to the map as a whole unless it is somehow known to be quiescent). Conversely, because keys and values in the map are never null, null serves as a reliable atomic indicator of the current lack of any result. To maintain this property, null serves as an implicit basis for all non-scalar reduction operations. For the double, long, and int versions, the basis should be one that, when combined with any other value, returns that other value (more formally, it should be the identity element for the reduction). Most common reductions have these properties; for example, computing a sum with basis 0 or a minimum with basis MAX_VALUE.

Search and transformation functions provided as arguments should similarly return null to indicate the lack of any result (in which case it is not used). In the case of mapped reductions, this also enables transformations to serve as filters, returning null (or, in the case of primitive specializations, the identity basis) if the element should not be combined. You can create compound transformations and filterings by composing them yourself under this "null means there is nothing there now" rule before using them in search or reduce operations.

Methods accepting and/or returning Entry arguments maintain key-value associations. They may be useful for example when finding the key for the greatest value. Note that "plain" Entry arguments can be supplied using new AbstractMap.SimpleEntry(k,v).

Bulk operations may complete abruptly, throwing an exception encountered in the application of a supplied function. Bear in mind when handling such exceptions that other concurrently executing functions could also have thrown exceptions, or would have done so if the first exception had not occurred.

Speedups for parallel compared to sequential forms are common but not guaranteed. Parallel operations involving brief functions on small maps may execute more slowly than sequential forms if the underlying work to parallelize the computation is more expensive than the computation itself. Similarly, parallelization may not lead to much actual parallelism if all processors are busy performing unrelated tasks.

All arguments to all task methods must be non-null.

This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

Returns
V the new value associated with the specified key, or null if none

Parameters
key K: key with which a value may be associated

remappingFunction BiFunction: the function to compute a value

Returns
V the new value associated with the specified key, or null if none

contains

Added in API level 1
public boolean contains (Object value)

Tests if some key maps into the specified value in this table.

Note that this method is identical in functionality to containsValue(java.lang.Object), and exists solely to ensure full compatibility with class Hashtable, which supported this method prior to introduction of the Java Collections Framework.

Parameters
value Object: a value to search for

Returns
boolean true if and only if some key maps to the value argument in this table as determined by the equals method; false otherwise

Throws

Throws
NullPointerException if the specified key is null

Throws
NullPointerException if the specified value is null

The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations.

The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

The view's spliterator reports Spliterator#CONCURRENT, Spliterator#DISTINCT, and Spliterator#NONNULL.

get

Added in API level 1
public V get (Object key)

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.equals(k), then this method returns v; otherwise it returns null. (There can be at most one such mapping.)

Parameters
key Object: the key whose associated value is to be returned

Returns
V the value to which the specified key is mapped, or null if this map contains no mapping for the key

Throws
NullPointerException if the specified key is null

getOrDefault

Added in API level 24
public V getOrDefault (Object key, 
                V defaultValue)

Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped, or the given default value if this map contains no mapping for the key.

Parameters
key Object: the key whose associated value is to be returned

defaultValue V: the value to return if this map contains no mapping for the given key

Returns
V the mapping for the key, if present; else the default value

Throws
NullPointerException if the specified key is null

hashCode

Added in API level 1
public int hashCode ()

Returns the hash code value for this Map, i.e., the sum of, for each key-value pair in the map, key.hashCode() ^ value.hashCode().

Returns
int the hash code value for this map

Added in API level 1
public boolean isEmpty ()

Returns true if this map contains no key-value mappings.

Returns
boolean true if this map contains no key-value mappings

keySet

Added in API level 1
public Set<K> keySet ()

Returns a 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. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the Iterator.remove, Set.remove, removeAll, retainAll, and clear operations. It does not support the add or addAll operations.

The set returned by this method is guaranteed to an instance of KeySetView.

The view's iterators and spliterators are weakly consistent.

The view's spliterator reports Spliterator#CONCURRENT, Spliterator#DISTINCT, and Spliterator#NONNULL.

Returns
Set<K> the set view

keySet

Added in API level 24
public KeySetView<K, V> keySet (V mappedValue)

Returns a Set view of the keys in this map, using the given common mapped value for any additions (i.e., Collection.add(E) and Collection#addAll(Collection)). This is of course only appropriate if it is acceptable to use the same value for all additions from this view.

Parameters
mappedValue V: the mapped value to use for any additions

Returns
KeySetView<K, V> the set view

Throws
NullPointerException if the mappedValue is null

keys

Added in API level 1
public Enumeration<K> keys ()

Returns an enumeration of the keys in this table.

Returns
Enumeration<K> an enumeration of the keys in this table

See also:

mappingCount

Added in API level 24
public long mappingCount ()

Returns the number of mappings. This method should be used instead of size() because a ConcurrentHashMap may contain more mappings than can be represented as an int. The value returned is an estimate; the actual count may differ if there are concurrent insertions or removals.

Returns
long the number of mappings

merge

Added in API level 24
public V merge (K key, 
                V value, 
                BiFunction<? super V, ? super V, ? extends V> remappingFunction)

If the specified key is not already associated with a (non-null) value, associates it with the given value. Otherwise, replaces the value with the results of the given remapping function, or removes if null. The entire method invocation is performed atomically. Some attempted update operations on this map by other threads may be blocked while computation is in progress, so the computation should be short and simple, and must not attempt to update any other mappings of this Map.

Parameters
key K: key with which the specified value is to be associated

value V: the value to use if absent

remappingFunction BiFunction: the function to recompute a value if present

Returns
V the new value associated with the specified key, or null if none

Throws
NullPointerException if the specified key or the remappingFunction is null
RuntimeException or Error if the remappingFunction does so, in which case the mapping is unchanged

Returns
KeySetView<K, Boolean> the new set

Throws
IllegalArgumentException if the initial capacity of elements is negative

put

Added in API level 1
public V put (K key, 
                V value)

Maps the specified key to the specified value in this table. Neither the key nor the value can be null.

The value can be retrieved by calling the get method with a key that is equal to the original key.

Parameters
key K: key with which the specified value is to be associated

value V: value to be associated with the specified key

Returns
V the previous value associated with key, or null if there was no mapping for key

Throws
NullPointerException if the specified key or value is null

putAll

Added in API level 1
public void putAll (Map<? extends K, ? extends V> m)

Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to this one. These mappings replace any mappings that this map had for any of the keys currently in the specified map.

Parameters
m Map: mappings to be stored in this map

putIfAbsent

Added in API level 1
public V putIfAbsent (K key, 
                V value)

If the specified key is not already associated with a value, associates it with the given value. This is equivalent to, for this map:

 if (!map.containsKey(key))
   return map.put(key, value);
 else
   return map.get(key);
except that the action is performed atomically.

Parameters
key K: key with which the specified value is to be associated

value V: value to be associated with the specified key

Returns
V the previous value associated with the specified key, or null if there was no mapping for the key
