Interface TypeSafeMultiMap

  • All Superinterfaces:
    java.lang.Iterable<java.util.Map.Entry<Key<?>,​java.util.Collection<?>>>
    public interface TypeSafeMultiMap
extends java.lang.Iterable<java.util.Map.Entry<Key<?>,​java.util.Collection<?>>>
    A map that is type safe, i.e. the pairs (key, value) are type-checked, and can contain multiple values, i.e. it's associated to collections (key, collection of values). It's immutable.
