Breaks a given map into a list of smaller maps, each containing at most the specified number of entries.

Parameters:

firstValue

public static final <K,V> V firstValue(java.util.Map<K,V> map)

isEmpty

public static final boolean isEmpty(java.util.Map<?,?> map)

isEmpty

public static final boolean isEmpty(java.util.Map<?,?> map,
                                    boolean lazyEvaluationIfPossible)

Returns true if the passed Map is null or empty, using the lazy variant if it is a LazyMapI, so that no unlazy will be triggered by this method. Mind that calling this method with a LazyMapI only makes sense, if you do _not_ need the values and thus will unlazy the LazyMapI shortly after in the not empty case, as you'd cause two roundtrips instead of one then (one for count, another one to fetch the actual objects), adding overhead and time instead of reducing it.

size

public static final int size(java.util.Map<?,?> map)

size

public static final int size(java.util.Map<?,?> map,
                             boolean lazyEvaluationIfPossible)

Returns the size of the passed Map, using the lazy variant if it is a LazyMapI, or zero if null is passed. Mind that calling this method with a LazyMapI only makes sense, if you do _not_ need the values and thus will unlazy the LazyMapI shortly after in the not empty case, as you'd cause two roundtrips instead of one then (one for count, another one to fetch the actual objects), adding overhead and time instead of reducing it.

asImmutable

public static final <K,V> java.util.Map<K,V> asImmutable(java.util.Map<K,V> map)

Returns an unmodifiable version of the passed Map, or the empty Map for a passed null or empty map.
