Program: How to get last key element from TreeMap (Sorted Map)?


Description:

Below example shows how to get last key from TreeMap based on sorting. To get last element, you have to sort the TreeMap based on user defined objects by using comparator object. You can include you own custom sorting logic with compare method. By passing comparator object to the TreeMap, you can sort the keys based on the logic provided inside the compare method. Once the TreeMap keys are in sorting order, you can call lastKey() method to get the last key, then you can get the corresponding value object.


Code:
package com.java2novice.treemap;

import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.Map.Entry;
import java.util.TreeMap;

public class MyTreeLastElement {

	public static void main(String a[]){
		//By using salary comparator (int comparison)
		TreeMap<Emp,String> trmap = new TreeMap<Emp, String>(new MySalaryCompr());
		trmap.put(new Emp("Ram",3000), "RAM");
		trmap.put(new Emp("John",6000), "JOHN");
		trmap.put(new Emp("Crish",2000), "CRISH");
		trmap.put(new Emp("Tom",2400), "TOM");
		Emp em = trmap.lastKey();
		System.out.println("Least salary emp: "+em);
		Entry<Emp,String> ent = trmap.lastEntry();
		System.out.println("Entry set values: ");
		System.out.println(ent.getKey()+" ==> "+ent.getValue());
	}
}

class MySalaryCompr implements Comparator<Emp>{

	@Override
	public int compare(Emp e1, Emp e2) {
		if(e1.getSalary() < e2.getSalary()){
			return 1;
		} else {
			return -1;
		}
	}
}

class Emp{
	
	private String name;
	private int salary;
	
	public Emp(String n, int s){
		this.name = n;
		this.salary = s;
	}
	
	public String getName() {
		return name;
	}
	public void setName(String name) {
		this.name = name;
	}
	public int getSalary() {
		return salary;
	}
	public void setSalary(int salary) {
		this.salary = salary;
	}
	public String toString(){
		return "Name: "+this.name+"-- Salary: "+this.salary;
	}
}

Output:
Least salary emp: Name: Crish-- Salary: 2000
Entry set values: 
Name: Crish-- Salary: 2000 ==> CRISH

Knowledge Centre
Where can we use serialization?
Whenever an object has to sent over the network, those objects should be serialized. Also if the state of an object is to be saved, objects need to be serilazed.

Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.
