Program: How to search a value in Hashtable?


Description:

Below example shows how to search a value from the Hashtable. The method containsValue() helps us to find whether the specified value exists or not.


Code:
package com.java2novice.hashtable;

import java.util.Hashtable;

public class MyHashtableValueSearch {

	public static void main(String a[]){
		Hashtable<String, String> hm = new Hashtable<String, String>();
		//add key-value pair to Hashtable
		hm.put("first", "FIRST INSERTED");
		hm.put("second", "SECOND INSERTED");
		hm.put("third","THIRD INSERTED");
		System.out.println(hm);
		if(hm.containsValue("SECOND INSERTED")){
			System.out.println("The Hashtable contains value SECOND INSERTED");
		} else {
			System.out.println("The Hashtable does not contains value SECOND INSERTED");
		}
		if(hm.containsValue("first")){
			System.out.println("The Hashtable contains value first");
		} else {
			System.out.println("The Hashtable does not contains value first");
		}
	}
}

Output:
{third=THIRD INSERTED, second=SECOND INSERTED, first=FIRST INSERTED}
The Hashtable contains value SECOND INSERTED
The Hashtable does not contains value first

Can we call servlet destory() from service()?
As you know, destory() is part of servlet life cycle methods, it is used to kill the servlet instance. Servlet Engine is used to call destory(). In case, if you call destory method from service(), it just execute the code written in the destory(), but it wont kill the servlet instance. destroy() will be called before killing the servlet instance by servlet engine.
