Program: How to find user defined objects from LinkedHashSet?


Description:

Below example shows how to search 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 MyLhsUdObjSearch {

	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("Does set contains key? "+lhs.contains(key));
	}
}

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
In hashcode
In equals
Does set contains key? true

What is wrapper class?
Everything in java is an object, except primitives. Primitives are int, short, long, boolean, etc. Since they are not objects, they cannot return as objects, and collection of objects. To support this, java provides wrapper classes to move primitives to objects. Some of the wrapper classes are Integer, Long, Boolean, etc.
