HashMap.containsKey 由于某种原因无法正常工作

HashMap.containsKey not working for some reason

我想知道为什么逻辑 if (!map.containsKey("Africa")) 既不去 if block (XX) 也不去 else block (YY)

public class HashMapWithListTest {

public static void main (String args[]) {
    HashMap<String,List<String>> map=new HashMap<String,List<String>>();

    //to put data firs time
    String country="USA";
    //create list for cities
    List<String> cityList=new ArrayList<String>();
    //then fill list
    cityList.add("New York");
    cityList.add("Los Angeles ");
    cityList.add("Chicago");

    //lets put this data to map
    map.put(country, cityList);

    //same thind with other data
    country="Pakistan";
    cityList=new ArrayList<String>();
    cityList.add("Lahore");
    cityList.add("Karachi");
    map.put(country, cityList);

    country="Malaysia";
    cityList=new ArrayList<String>();
    cityList.add("Kuala Lumpur");
    cityList.add("Johor Baru");
    map.put(country, cityList);

    country="Indonesia";
    cityList=new ArrayList<String>();
    cityList.add("Jakarta");
    cityList.add("Bandung");
    map.put(country, cityList);

    //now lets check what is in map
    System.out.println(map);

    //to add city in USA
    //you need to get List of cities and add new one 
    map.get("USA").add("Washington");

    //to get all values from USA
    System.out.println("city in USA:");
    List<String> tmp=map.get("USA");
    for (String city:tmp)
        System.out.println(city);

    System.out.println("x------------------x");
    map.remove("USA");
    System.out.println(map);
    System.out.println("x------------------x");
    map.get("Indonesia").add("Lembang");
    System.out.println(map.get("Indonesia"));
    System.out.println("x------------------x");
    country="Indonesia";
    cityList=new ArrayList<String>();
    cityList.add("Semarang");
    cityList.add("Bali");
    map.putIfAbsent(country, cityList);

    if (!map.containsKey("Africa")) {
        System.out.println(map.get("XX"));
    } else {
        System.out.println(map.get("YY"));
    }
}

}

map.containsKey("Africa") returns false 在你的代码中(因为你的 HashMap 中没有这样的键)然后 map.get("XX") 产生 null 值(没有与 HashMap 中的 "XX" 键关联的值),由 System.out.println.

打印

代码正确,可能存在语义问题

检查密钥是否存在的最佳方法:

Myobject value = map.get(key);
if (value != null) {
...
} else {
if (map.containsKey(key)) {
   // key exists but it's null
} else {
   // No such key
}
}

因为这是 HashMap.containsKey 的工作方式:

@Override
public boolean containsKey(Object key) {
Entry<K, V> m = getEntry(key);
return m != null;
}

它进入 if 循环..如果你想检查,用 System.out.println("XX");

替换 System.out.println(map.get("XX"));
