The Java IdentityHashMap equals(Object o) method is used to compare the specified object with this map for equality.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.IdentityHashMap.equals() method.
public boolean equals(Object o)Parameters
o − This is the object to be compared for equality with this map.
Return ValueThe method call returns 'true' if the specified object is equal to this map.
ExceptionNA
Checking Equality of IdentityHashMap Objects of Integer, Integer Pair ExampleThe following example shows the usage of Java IdentityHashMap equals() method to check if map objects are same or not. We've created two Map objects of Integer,Integer pairs. Then few entries are added, maps are compared using equals() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.IdentityHashMap; public class IdentityHashMapDemo { public static void main(String args[]) { // create identity map IdentityHashMap<Integer,Integer> newmap = new IdentityHashMap<>(); IdentityHashMap<Integer,Integer> newmap2 = new IdentityHashMap<>(); // populate identity map newmap.put(1, 1); newmap.put(2, 2); newmap.put(3, 3); // populate identity map newmap2.put(1, 4); newmap2.put(2, 5); newmap2.put(3, 6); System.out.println("Maps are equal: " + newmap.equals(newmap2)); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.
