Constructor Detail

### KeyToGroupMap

    public KeyToGroupMap()

  Creates a new map with a default group named 'Default Group'.

### KeyToGroupMap

    public KeyToGroupMap(java.lang.Comparable defaultGroup)

  Creates a new map with the specified default group.

  Parameters:
    `defaultGroup` - the default group (`null` not permitted).

Method Detail

### getGroupCount

    public int getGroupCount()

  Returns the number of groups in the map.

  Returns:
    The number of groups in the map.

### getGroups

    public java.util.List getGroups()

  Returns a list of the groups (always including the default group) in the map. The returned list is independent of the map, so altering the list will have no effect.

  Returns:
    The groups (never `null`).

### getGroupIndex

    public int getGroupIndex(java.lang.Comparable group)

  Returns the index for the group.

  Parameters:
    `group` - the group.
  Returns:
    The group index (or -1 if the group is not represented within the map).

### getGroup

    public java.lang.Comparable getGroup(java.lang.Comparable key)

  Returns the group that a key is mapped to.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key (`null` not permitted).
  Returns:
    The group (never `null`, returns the default group if there is no mapping for the specified key).

### mapKeyToGroup

    public void mapKeyToGroup(java.lang.Comparable key,
                              java.lang.Comparable group)

  Maps a key to a group.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key (`null` not permitted).
    `group` - the group (`null` permitted, clears any existing mapping).

### getKeyCount

    public int getKeyCount(java.lang.Comparable group)

  Returns the number of keys mapped to the specified group. This method won't always return an accurate result for the default group, since explicit mappings are not required for this group.

  Parameters:
    `group` - the group (`null` not permitted).
  Returns:
    The key count.

### equals

    public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

  Tests the map for equality against an arbitrary object.

  Overrides:
    `equals` in class `java.lang.Object`
  Parameters:
    `obj` - the object to test against (`null` permitted).
  Returns:
    A boolean.

### clone

    public java.lang.Object clone()
                           throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

  Returns a clone of the map.

  Specified by:
    `clone` in interface `org.jfree.util.PublicCloneable`
  Overrides:
    `clone` in class `java.lang.Object`
  Returns:
    A clone.
  Throws:
    `java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException` - if there is a problem cloning the map.
