Storing and Retrieving ArrayList values from hashmap

Question

I have a hashmap of the following type

HashMap> map=new HashMap>();    
<         


        

Answer 1

You could try using MultiMap instead of HashMap

Initialising it will require fewer lines of codes. Adding and retrieving the values will also make it shorter.

Map> map = new HashMap>();

would become:

Multimap multiMap = ArrayListMultimap.create();
