Why final is not applied for Map ?

	Hi,  Map hm= new HashMap();  hm.put("hash","test");  ok  final Map hm= new HashMap();  hm.put("hash","test");// this should not allow here as Map i have declared as final.  ko  but Map hms = Collections.unmodifiable(hm) is working fine.

	hm.put("hash","test");// this should not allow here as Map i have declared as final. [  Final does not imply unmodifiable, unless the object is immutable. If you want an unmodifiable map have a look at the Collections class, or alternatively wrap the map in your own custom immutable class.

 

 

如果要实现HashMap不可被修改，即如果不可变类的成员变量是可变的（譬如HashMap），我们需要使用深拷贝(deep copy)或者克隆来防止成员变量被更改：

     private final HashMap testMap;

 

……

……

 

     /**

      * 可变对象的访问方法

      */

     public HashMap getTestMap() {

         //return testMap;

         return (HashMap) testMap.clone();

     }
