GroupAwareMap (Core XMPP Server 4.8.2 API)

All Superinterfaces:

Map<K,V>

All Known Implementing Classes:

ConcurrentGroupMap
```
public interface GroupAwareMap<K,V>
extends Map<K,V>
```
This map specifies additional methods that understand groups among the entries in the map.

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`Set<Group>`	`getGroupsFromKeys()`	Returns the groups that are implied (resolvable) from the keys in the map.
`Set<Group>`	`getGroupsFromValues()`	Returns the groups that are implied (resolvable) from the values in the map.
`boolean`	`includesKey(Object key)`	Returns true if the map's keySet contains the given JID.

- Method Detail
  - includesKey
```
boolean includesKey(Object key)
```
    Returns true if the map's keySet contains the given JID. If the JID is not found explicitly, search the keySet for groups and look for the JID in each of the corresponding groups.
    
    Parameters:
    
    key - The target, presumably a JID
    
    Returns:
    
    True if the target is in the key list, or in any groups in the key list
  - includesValue
```
boolean includesValue(Object value)
```
    Returns true if the map contains a value referencing the given JID. If the JID is not found explicitly, search the values for groups and look for the JID in each of the corresponding groups.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - The target, presumably a JID
    
    Returns:
    
    True if the target is in the key list, or in any groups in the key list
  - getGroupsFromKeys
```
Set<Group> getGroupsFromKeys()
```
    Returns the groups that are implied (resolvable) from the keys in the map.
    
    Returns:
    
    A new Set containing the groups in the keySet
  - getGroupsFromValues
```
Set<Group> getGroupsFromValues()
```
    Returns the groups that are implied (resolvable) from the values in the map.
    
    Returns:
    
    A new Set containing the groups among the mapped values
