What is the closest implementation of Objective-C’s NSDictionary in Java? To me, it looks like HashMap<String, Object>, but I’m very new to Objective-C.
Thanks
NSDictionaryis a class cluster (see the “Class Cluster” section in The Cocoa Fundamentals Guide), meaning that the actual implementation is hidden from you, the API user. In fact, the Foundation framework will choose the appropriate implementation at run time based on amount of data etc. In addition,NSDictionarycan take anyidas a key, not justNSString(of course, the-hashof the key object must be constant).Thus, closest analog is probably
Map<Object,Object>.
