Populating a HashMap with entries from a properties file

Question

I want to populate a HashMap using the Properties class.
I want to load the entries in the .propeties file and then copy it into

Answer 1

If I understand correctly, each value in the properties is a String which represents an Integer. So the code would look like this:

for (String key : properties.stringPropertyNames()) {
    String value = properties.getProperty(key);
    mymap.put(key, Integer.valueOf(value));
}
