get

public String get(String key)

Description copied from interface: Dictionary

Retrieves the value for the given key.

Specified by:

get in interface Dictionary<String,String>

key - The key whose value is to be returned.

Returns:

The value corresponding to key, or null if the key does not exist. Will also return null if the key refers to a null value. Use containsKey() to distinguish between these two cases.

put

public String put(String key,

The value that was removed.

containsKey

public boolean containsKey(String key)

Description copied from interface: Dictionary

Tests the existence of a key in the dictionary.

Specified by:

containsKey in interface Dictionary<String,String>

Parameters:

key - The key whose presence in the dictionary is to be tested.

Returns:

true if the key exists in the dictionary; false, otherwise.
