LinkedHashMap (Java SE 18 & JDK 18) API Examples.
You will find code examples on most LinkedHashMap methods.


Summary

Hash table and linked list implementation of the Map interface, with predictable iteration order. This implementation differs from HashMap in that it maintains a doubly-linked list running through all of its entries.

LinkedHashMap (Java SE 18 & JDK 18)

Class diagram

final var map = new LinkedHashMap<String, Integer>();
System.out.println(map); // {}

map.put("a", 10);
map.put("b", 20);
map.put("c", 30);
System.out.println(map); // {a=10, b=20, c=30}

System.out.println(map.get("a")); // 10
System.out.println(map.get("b")); // 20
System.out.println(map.get("X")); // null

map.remove("b");
System.out.println(map); // {a=10, c=30}

final var linkedHashMap = new LinkedHashMap<String, Integer>();
linkedHashMap.put("xxx", 10);
linkedHashMap.put("yyy", 20);
linkedHashMap.put("aaa", 30);
linkedHashMap.put("bbb", 40);

System.out.println(linkedHashMap); // {xxx=10, yyy=20, aaa=30, bbb=40}

final var hashMap = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
hashMap.put("xxx", 10);
hashMap.put("yyy", 20);
hashMap.put("aaa", 30);
hashMap.put("bbb", 40);

System.out.println(hashMap); // {aaa=30, bbb=40, yyy=20, xxx=10}

Constructors

LinkedHashMap ()

Constructs an empty insertion-ordered LinkedHashMap instance with the default initial capacity (16) and load factor (0.75).

LinkedHashMap (Java SE 18 & JDK 18) 
final var map = new LinkedHashMap<String, Integer>();
System.out.println(map); // {}
System.out.println(map.isEmpty()); // true

System.out.println(map); // {a=10, b=20, c=30}
System.out.println(map.size()); // 3
