@GwtCompatible public abstract class ForwardingSortedSetMultimap<K,V> extends ForwardingSetMultimap<K,V> implements SortedSetMultimap<K,V>
A sorted set multimap which forwards all its method calls to another sorted set multimap. Subclasses should override one or more methods to modify the behavior of the backing multimap as desired per the decorator pattern.

protected abstract SortedSetMultimap<K,V> |
delegate()
Returns the backing delegate instance that methods are forwarded to.
|
SortedSet<V> |
get(K key)
Returns a view collection of the values associated with
key in this multimap, if any. |
SortedSet<V> |
removeAll(Object key)
Removes all values associated with the key
key. |
SortedSet<V> |
replaceValues(K key,
Iterable<? extends V> values)
Stores a collection of values with the same key, replacing any existing values for that key.
|
Comparator<? super V> |
valueComparator()
Returns the comparator that orders the multimap values, with
null indicating that natural ordering is used. |

protected abstract SortedSetMultimap<K,V> delegate()
ForwardingObjectReturns 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.
delegate in class ForwardingSetMultimap<K,V>public SortedSet<V> get(@Nullable K key)
MultimapReturns a view collection of the values associated with key in this multimap, if any. Note that when containsKey(key) is false, this returns an empty collection, not null.
Changes to the returned collection will update the underlying multimap, and vice versa.
public SortedSet<V> removeAll(@Nullable Object key)
MultimapRemoves all values associated with the key key.
Once this method returns, key will not be mapped to any values, so it will not appear in Multimap.keySet(), Multimap.asMap(), or any other views.

MultimapStores a collection of values with the same key, replacing any existing values for that key.
If values is empty, this is equivalent to removeAll(key).
