Java: Efficient Equivalent to Removing while Iterating a Collection
Removing items from a collection in java while iterating over it
I'm trying to loop through HashMap
:
Map<String, Integer> group0 = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
... and extract every element in group0
. This is my approach:
// iterate through all Members in group 0 that have not been assigned yet
for (Map.Entry<String, Integer> entry : group0.entrySet()) {
// determine where to assign 'entry'
iEntryGroup = hasBeenAccusedByGroup(entry.getKey());
if (iEntryGroup == 1) {
assign(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue(), 2);
} else {
assign(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue(), 1);
}
}
The problem here is that each call to assign()
will remove elements from group0
, thus modifying its size, thus causing the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.util.ConcurrentModificationException
at java.util.HashMap$HashIterator.nextEntry(HashMap.java:793)
at java.util.HashMap$EntryIterator.next(HashMap.java:834)
at java.util.HashMap$EntryIterator.next(HashMap.java:832)
at liarliar$Bipartite.bipartition(liarliar.java:463)
at liarliar$Bipartite.readFile(liarliar.java:216)
at liarliar.main(liarliar.java:483)
So... how can I loop through the elements in group0
while it's dynamically changing?
