- java.lang.Object
- - com.google.common.collect.ForwardingObject
  - - com.google.common.collect.ForwardingMap<K,V>
    - - com.google.common.collect.ForwardingConcurrentMap<K,V>

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V>, java.util.Map<K,V>

      @GwtCompatible
      public abstract class ForwardingConcurrentMap<K,V>
      extends ForwardingMap<K,V>
      implements java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V>

  A concurrent map which forwards all its method calls to another concurrent map. Subclasses should override one or more methods to modify the behavior of the backing map as desired per the decorator pattern.
  Since:
    2.0

          protected ForwardingConcurrentMap()

      Constructor for use by subclasses.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### delegate

          protected abstract java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V> delegate()

      Description copied from class: `ForwardingObject`
      Returns the backing delegate instance that methods are forwarded to. Abstract subclasses generally override this method with an abstract method that has a more specific return type, such as `ForwardingSet.delegate()`. Concrete subclasses override this method to supply the instance being decorated.
      Specified by:
        `delegate` in class `ForwardingMap<K,V>`

    - #### putIfAbsent

          public V putIfAbsent(K key,
                      V value)

      Specified by:
        `putIfAbsent` in interface `java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V>`

    - #### remove

          public boolean remove(java.lang.Object key,
                       java.lang.Object value)

      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V>`

    - #### replace

          public V replace(K key,
                  V value)

      Specified by:
