public class LinkedHashMap4D<K,V> extends HashMap4D<K,V>
It uses a hash-bucket approach; that is, hash collisions are handled by linking the new node off of the pre-existing node (or list of nodes). In this manner, techniques such as linear probing (which can cause primary clustering) and rehashing (which does not fit very well with Java's method of precomputing hash codes) are avoided. In addition, this maintains a doubly-linked list which tracks either insertion or access order.
In insertion order, calling put adds the key to the end of
traversal, unless the key was already in the map; changing traversal order
requires removing and reinserting a key. On the other hand, in access
order, all calls to put and get cause the
accessed key to move to the end of the traversal list. Note that any
accesses to the map's contents via its collection views and iterators do
not affect the map's traversal order, since the collection views do not
call put or get.
One of the nice features of tracking insertion order is that you can
copy a hashtable, and regardless of the implementation of the original,
produce the same results when iterating over the copy. This is possible
without needing the overhead of TreeMap.
When using this constructor,
you can build an access-order mapping. This can be used to implement LRU
caches, for example. By overriding removeEldestEntry(Map.Entry),
you can also control the removal of the oldest entry, and thereby do
things like keep the map at a fixed size.
Under ideal circumstances (no collisions), LinkedHashMap offers O(1)
performance on most operations (containsValue() is,
of course, O(n)). In the worst case (all keys map to the same
hash code -- very unlikely), most operations are O(n). Traversal is
faster than in HashMap (proportional to the map size, and not the space
allocated for the map), but other operations may be slower because of the
overhead of the maintaining the traversal order list.
LinkedHashMap accepts the null key and null values. It is not
synchronized, so if you need multi-threaded access, consider using:
Map m = Collections.synchronizedMap(new LinkedHashMap(...));
The iterators are fail-fast, meaning that any structural
modification, except for remove() called on the iterator
itself, cause the iterator to throw a
ConcurrentModificationException rather than exhibit
non-deterministic behavior.

true if this map should remove the eldest entry.
This method is invoked by all calls to put and
putAll which place a new entry in the map, providing
the implementer an opportunity to remove the eldest entry any time
a new one is added. This can be used to save memory usage of the
hashtable, as well as emulating a cache, by deleting stale entries.
For example, to keep the Map limited to 100 entries, override as follows:
private static final int MAX_ENTRIES = 100;
protected boolean removeEldestEntry(Map.Entry eldest)
{
return size() > MAX_ENTRIES;
}
Typically, this method does not modify the map, but just uses the
return value as an indication to put whether to proceed.
However, if you override it to modify the map, you must return false
(indicating that put should leave the modified map alone),
or you face unspecified behavior. Remember that in access-order mode,
even calling get is a structural modification, but using
the collections views (such as keySet) is not.
This method is called after the eldest entry has been inserted, so
if put was called on a previously empty map, the eldest
entry is the one you just put in! The default implementation just
returns false, so that this map always behaves like
a normal one with unbounded growth.
eldest - the eldest element which would be removed if this
returns true. For an access-order map, this is the least
