I would like to extend mutable Map in Scala, because I need some special behaviour when adding a new tuple. I have the following
package my.package
import collection.mutable.Map
class Unit[T1,T2](map: Map[T1,T2]) extends Map[T1,T2]{
override def get(key: T1): Option[T2] = super.get(key)
override def iterator: Iterator[(T1, T2)] = super.iterator
override def -=(key: T1): Map[T1, T2] = super.-(key)
override def +=[T3 >: T2] (kv: (T1, T3)): Map[T1, T3] = super.+[T3](kv)
}
The problem is with the syntax of the +=
method. It says that method +=
overrides nothing. If I change +=
to +
, there is an issue that class Unit must either be declared as abstract or implement abstract member +=
.
EDIT This is syntacticly correct
class Unit[T1,T2] extends Map[T1,T2]{
override def get(key: T1): Option[T2] = super.get(key)
override def iterator: Iterator[(T1, T2)] = super.iterator
override def -=(key: T1): Map[T1, T2] = super.-(key)
override def += (kv: (T1, T2)): Map[T1, T2] = super.+[T2](kv)
}
But it would be better to extend HashMap instead of Map which is a trait, cause I need to change only one function for adding a new tuple.
EDIT And below this is what I wanted to have.
import collection.mutable.HashMap
import scala.math.{log,ceil}
class Unit[T1>:String,T2>:String] extends HashMap[T1,T2]{
override def +=(kv: (T1, T2)): this.type = {
val bits = ceil(log2(this.size)).toInt match {
case x: Int if (x < 5) => 5
case x => x
}
val key = Range(0,(bits - this.size.toBinaryString.size)).foldLeft("")((a,_)=>a+"0")+this.size.toBinaryString
this.put(kv._1, key)
this
}
val lnOf2 = log(2) // natural log of 2
def log2(x: Double): Double = log(x) / lnOf2
}
