Program: How to delete user defined objects from LinkedHashSet?


Description:

Below example shows how to delete user defined objects from LinkedHashSet. You can achieve this by implementing equals and hashcode methods at the user defined objects.


Code:
package com.java2novice.linkedhashset;

import java.util.LinkedHashSet;

public class MylhsDeleteObject {

	public static void main(String a[]){
		
		LinkedHashSet<Price> lhs = new LinkedHashSet<Price>();
		lhs.add(new Price("Banana", 20));
		lhs.add(new Price("Apple", 40));
		lhs.add(new Price("Orange", 30));
		for(Price pr:lhs){
			System.out.println(pr);
		}
		Price key = new Price("Banana", 20);
		System.out.println("deleting key from set...");
		lhs.remove(key);
		System.out.println("Elements after delete:");
		for(Price pr:lhs){
			System.out.println(pr);
		}
	}
}

class Price{
	
	private String item;
	private int price;
	
	public Price(String itm, int pr){
		this.item = itm;
		this.price = pr;
	}
	
	public int hashCode(){
		System.out.println("In hashcode");
		int hashcode = 0;
		hashcode = price*20;
		hashcode += item.hashCode();
		return hashcode;
	}
	
	public boolean equals(Object obj){
		System.out.println("In equals");
		if (obj instanceof Price) {
			Price pp = (Price) obj;
			return (pp.item.equals(this.item) && pp.price == this.price);
		} else {
			return false;
		}
	}
	
	public String getItem() {
		return item;
	}
	public void setItem(String item) {
		this.item = item;
	}
	public int getPrice() {
		return price;
	}
	public void setPrice(int price) {
		this.price = price;
	}
	
	public String toString(){
		return "item: "+item+"  price: "+price;
	}
}

Output:
In hashcode
In hashcode
In hashcode
item: Banana  price: 20
item: Apple  price: 40
item: Orange  price: 30
deleting key from set...
In hashcode
In equals
Elements after delete:
item: Apple  price: 40
item: Orange  price: 30

Knowledge Centre
String Vs StringBuffer
We know that String is immutable object. We can not change the value of a String object once it is initiated. If we try to change the value of the existing String object then it creates new object rather than changing the value of the existing object. So incase, we are going to do more modificatios on String, then use StringBuffer. StringBuffer updates the existing objects value, rather creating new object.
Famous Quotations
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
-- William Shakespeare
