          @CheckReturnValue
          public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> split(java.lang.CharSequence sequence)

      Splits `sequence` into substrings, splits each substring into an entry, and returns an unmodifiable map with each of the entries. For example, `Splitter.on(';').trimResults().withKeyValueSeparator("=>") .split("a=>b ; c=>b")` will return a mapping from `"a"` to `"b"` and `"c"` to `b`.

      The returned map preserves the order of the entries from `sequence`.

      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the specified sequence does not split into valid map entries, or if there are duplicate keys
