scala.collection.generic.GenMapFactory

abstract class GenMapFactory[CC[A, B] <: GenMap[A, B] with GenMapLike[A, B, CC[A, B]]] extends AnyRef

A template for companion objects of Map and subclasses thereof.

Type Members

type Coll = CC[_, _]

The type constructor of the collection that can be built by this factory

class MapCanBuildFrom[A, B] extends CanBuildFrom[Coll, (A, B), CC[A, B]]

The standard CanBuildFrom class for maps.

Concrete Value Members From scala.collection.generic.GenMapFactory

abstract def empty[A, B]: CC[A, B]

An empty Map

(defined at scala.collection.generic.GenMapFactory)

def apply[A, B](elems: (A, B)*): CC[A, B]

A collection of type Map that contains given key/value bindings.

  • A
    • the type of the keys
  • B
    • the type of the associated values
  • elems
    • the key/value pairs that make up the map
  • returns
    • a new map consisting key/value pairs given by elems .

(defined at scala.collection.generic.GenMapFactory)

def newBuilder[A, B]: Builder[(A, B), CC[A, B]]

The default builder for Map objects.

  • A
    • the type of the keys
  • B
    • the type of the associated values
