Methods

Modifier and Type Method and Description
Map<String,DataFlavor> getFlavorsForNatives(String[] natives)

Returns a Map of the specified String natives to their corresponding DataFlavor.
Map<DataFlavor,String> getNativesForFlavors(DataFlavor[] flavors)

Returns a Map of the specified DataFlavors to their corresponding String native.

Methods

getNativesForFlavors

Map<DataFlavor,String> getNativesForFlavors(DataFlavor[] flavors)

Returns a Map of the specified DataFlavors to their corresponding String native. The returned Map is a modifiable copy of this FlavorMap's internal data. Client code is free to modify the Map without affecting this object.

Parameters:
flavors - an array of DataFlavors which will be the key set of the returned Map. If null is specified, a mapping of all DataFlavors currently known to this FlavorMap to their corresponding String natives will be returned.
Returns:
a java.util.Map of DataFlavors to String natives

getFlavorsForNatives

Map<String,DataFlavor> getFlavorsForNatives(String[] natives)

Returns a Map of the specified String natives to their corresponding DataFlavor. The returned Map is a modifiable copy of this FlavorMap's internal data. Client code is free to modify the Map without affecting this object.

Parameters:
natives - an array of Strings which will be the key set of the returned Map. If null is specified, a mapping of all String natives currently known to this FlavorMap to their corresponding DataFlavors will be returned.
Returns:
a java.util.Map of String natives to DataFlavors
